  • Abstract:  More so than any previous New Super Mario Bros. game, New Super Mario Bros. U feels bigger and more important, even if it doesn’t start that way. At the outset, Bowser takes over Peach’s castle, and Mario and company have to fight through common level ...

  • Abstract:  The launch of Nintendo’s Wii U is a historic one. Not only will we be seeing Nintendo games in HD for the first time, it’s also the first Nintendo console to launch with a new Mario title in 16 years. Seriously, no joke. Back in 1996, Nintendo launched...

  • The Squirrel Suit is lots of fun, Up to 5 players can play at the same time, Mario in 1080P, A rightful tough challenge

  • Abstract:  By the hammer of Thor it’s good to see Mario back again. Yes, there have been plenty of Mario-themed games over the past 12 months, but this is what fans have been waiting for, and for a long time.Despite the cheesy name, New Super Mario Bros. U feels ...
