This game is much easier than the one for the Wii, but it's super mega fun especially if your a pothead and gather with your other pothead friends. This game is for everybody. Even little children, I have two nieces that play all the time and it's so cute. This is a great game and I simply love God-mode on the gamepad and how it adds an extra player to assist in the best ways. Nintendo's original ideas are giving game developers a step into future. Great game and so far it's the only Wii U game at the moment worth holding onto if you rent it from Gamefly.

Wow, This game threw a huge curve ball with my expectations.

Don't let the colorful artwork fool you. This game can get challenging...NAY it WILL get challenging as you progress through the worlds. Super Mario Bros Wii U also adds new game mechanics to almost each new level, making you expect the unexpected.

The music is fantastic, classic mario veterans will recognize their favorite bleeps and bloops throughout their adventure.

Your favorite returning cast and crew are back and ready to blow your mind. Iggy? check. Wendy Koopa? check. Yoshi? Check. Sudden Nostalgia? definite check.

And what can be said about the art....Fantastic, colorful and vibrant, You will die sometimes just admiring whats going on in the background. Some of you may even recognize a famous artist reference in one of the later worlds.

This is a must Keep for any Wii U owner, gamer casual and hardcore, and Even YOU ASPIRING ARTIST. Don't miss out on this title.

The masters have done it again. And we should start with Miiverse. Miiverse is sensational and its potential shows particularly brightly in this game. Throughout the game you will be privy to other players thoughts about the game and maybe a helpful hint or two if you turn off spoiler blocking. You can then comment on or +yeah that comment or drawing. Just play it, you'll get it.... or you may not be so intelligent or perceptive as you think.

Mario looks great in HD. 'nuff said. New enemies, return of classic and forgotten enemies, new powerups, co-operative OR solo play, use your Mii, challenge modes.....I could rave on and on.... just play the game.... play it now... if you didn't buy this at launch, buy it now but rent it while you wait.
