New Super Mario Bros. Wii (Nintendo Selects)

I played this when it launched on the Wii U, and I bought it again with rose-tinted goggles on. The game hasn't aged well to say the least. Don't get me wrong, it is still a solid game that's free of bugs and includes a boatload of content, but the 3D side-scrolling just doesn't feel as tight and precise as Mario's 2D outings. Again, it is still a perfectly competent game for its time, but it won't go down in history as one of the greats (SMB, SMB3, SMW). My reasoning for bumping off a star then is the value proposition here. What you get is a port with no significant improvements for the price of a full new AAA game. Perhaps if they would've handled this more like Super Mario Bros DX on GBC, including collectibles, nostalgia bits, and historical museum type ... MoreI played this when it launched on the Wii U, and I bought it again with rose-tinted goggles on.

Instead it has built in hint videos? No thanks.

I would first off like to start by saying that I never played the Wii U versions of these games so this is the first time I ever played these Mario games and I am so happy I got this. First off it's a single game yet it's two games combined into one. If you love The 2D side-scrolling Mario games and you loved Mario World and Mario 3 this is exactly what that feels like. It feels like they took Mario Brothers 3 and Mario World and mash them up together to create this game and I absolutely love it! This is an extremely solid Mario game and Luigi game it's very fun and it stays very true to the original Nintendo Mario 3 game and the Super Nintendo Mario World game when Yoshi first made his appearance in the Mario World games.

I will make this simple, this game is just absolutely fun, it's fun to play, nice to look at, and best of all gives you so much content I'm talking about a lot of levels here. If you like Mario games then don't even think twice about getting this and just get it. I definitely don't regret getting it.

This is a fun, older style Mario platformer that offers a fun 2D style gaming experience. In comparison to the newer-style Mario Odyssey I don't enjoy SMBUD quite as much, but I am still glad that I bought it. That said, if it had not been for the ability to play as the Nabbit character on the harder levels I would have absolutely hated the game. At this stage in my life, I don't have the patience or the reflexes for a level that requires you to repeat it over and over and over until you can manage to get clear through all the (sometimes time-restricted) threats and still survive a boss fight at the end with only 3 levels of damage. Younger gamers will probably relish the challenge, but I like that I can customize the level of difficulty to some extent.

I've played through all the levels and managed to get all the stars except for a couple in the final bonus area. I've also played through some of the Super Luigi levels, but since the difficulty there is more time based and harder, I doubt that I'll end up playing it very far.

Classic Mario Game

There is nothing not to love about this classic game. This is an absolutely essential game in my Wii collection. One of my personal favorites. It brings back Super Mario Bros. with a cool map of the game worlds. You can navigate through the game and keep track of where you are with the map. I really love all the characters, bright colors, and challenging levels. This is super fun and addictive. I can get totally lost in playing this game. I feel like I am reliving my childhood everytime I play it. The game disc itself is refurbished but is in perfect condition. There are no marks, scratches, or damage to the disc. The game plays very well with no freezing or glitches. The game did include the manual which is really nice.

Fantastic blending of old & new creates instant classic

Super Mario Bros. Wii successfully blends the old NES and Super Nintendo Mario games (Mario Bros. 1 & 3, Super Mario World 1 & 2) with the graphics and gameplay of the Wii and newer Mario games (Super Mario Galaxy) to make yet another instant Mario classic. Up to four players can play simultaneously to create chaotic fun like only Nintendo can do. The style of each level is taken from Super Mario Bros. 3 (as is the world map) and also plays very similarly. The addition of Yoshi - you ride him just like in Super Mario World - only cements this game's addictiveness. Some complain that SMBW is a cheap port or knockoff. Even if that is true, a knockoff of some of the greatest games ever made can't be horrible, right? Far from horrible, indeed, the game has received very ... MoreSuper Mario Bros.

Far from horrible, indeed, the game has received very high ratings from nearly all major video game critics. Super Mario Bros. Wii has a wonderful nostalgic feel to it, and is likely to bring back many fond memories. Simple controls & gameplay, over 100 levels, and a seemingly unlimited amount of secrets makes this game a MUST for any Wii owner.

Great Wii game!

I recently received this Refurbished Super Mario Bros. game for Wii. My nephew comes over a lot and brings his Switch but doesn't bring the part that connects it to the TV, so having a console (old as it is) and games is great! This came with the original case which isn't always possible with used (refurbished) games. It has a booklet inside on how to view the game instructions online (if available) as well as showing different generic warnings. The game works perfectly and barely has any noticeable signs of use or scratches on the disc. It's a really cute Mario game. I used to play Mario Bros. when I was young as well. Other than Goldeneye, it was always my favorite (showing my age a bit)! Also, refurbished products from Voomwa come with contact information in case ... MoreI recently received this Refurbished Super Mario Bros. game for Wii.

My kids favorite new game

Wii Mario Game:Another great Mario Game from NintendoThis Mario game for the Wii was loads of fun and a big hit with my kids. I tried it out first, since I've been playing nintendo since the very first Mario game in the eighties. I put the disc in and proceeded to start it from the menu, but once the screen loaded I was confused as I was trying to maneuver mario around the screen. After some intial confusion, I realized I was supposed to hold the controller sideways like a traditional gamepad instead of the usual way of holding wii controllers like a baton. After that was sorted out, everything worked like a dream. The controls function just like previous style controllers (as long as you're holding it as such). During gameplay that controller even has a special ... MoreWii Mario Game:Another great Mario Game from NintendoThis Mario game for the Wii was loads of fun and a big hit with my kids. I tried it out first, since I've been playing nintendo since the very first Mario game in the eighties. I put the disc in and proceeded to start it from the menu, but once the screen loaded I was confused as I was trying to maneuver mario around the screen. After some intial confusion, I realized I was supposed to hold the controller sideways like a traditional gamepad instead of the usual way of holding wii controllers like a baton. After that was sorted out, everything worked like a dream. The controls function just like previous style controllers (as long as you're holding it as such). During gameplay that controller even has a special ability specific to the way, where the player can shake the controller up and down to execute a special mario move such as flying up in the air(using the propeller hat) or twirling around with your arms out. My child loved this ability to make mario fly with the propeller hat by shaking the control. That's basically all she did on every level. Ha As far as gameplay, it's pretty traditional for a mario game. You advance through the game from a world map menu where you direct Mario where to go. Each level ends with a boss battle in a castle. My child seemed very motivated to reach the castles and bea the bosses and found it fun. She is 10 and has autism and is not too coordinated or cognitively advanced like a normal child, so for her to stay interested and motivated says a lot for how engaging and well produced the game is. The graphics looked superb. They reminded me of the N64 Mario with similarly styled castle and font choices. Sounds were fun as typical with boops and beeps when hitting coin blocks. Occasionally a sound will eminate from the controller unexpectedly (like when you get a mushroom). In summary, this was a surprising hit with the family and was enjoyed even more than Wii sports, which was the previous fan favorite.

R ally love this game. I'm very satisfied with the product. Thanks so much, it actually reminds me when I used to play this when I was little. Now my

R ally love this game. I'm very satisfied with the product. Thanks so much, it actually reminds me when I used to play this when I was little. Now my son can play this with me. Thanks again!!!

Would recommend, great for kids and adults

It's a great game, for the whole family. If you have enough remotes, it's a four player game, without split screen. I played this when I was younger, and absolutely loved it. (Tip: It tells you to turn the remote sideways, but you can also play with a nunchuck.) Works fine (that I've heard.) I ordered this as a birthday present for my kid brother (I live in Illinois, he lives in Michigan) and he loves it. The only thing is that when I placed the order May 31st, 2020, it said it would be delivered by June 8th, 2020 and it didn't arrive until June 18th, 2020. Under normal circumstances, I would've given 3 stars due to it being over a week late, but due to the chaos of Covid-19, I'm bit more understanding. All things considered, my siblings have been playing it ... MoreIt's a great game, for the whole family. If you have enough remotes, it's a four player game, without split screen.

All things considered, my siblings have been playing it religiously, so it must work well, and it's a decent price with free shipping, coming out to $52.84 with tax. It's also nice being able to order from home, and have it shipped elsewhere. There is a return window of 30 days.
