Super Mario 3D Land for Nintendo 3DS Reviews by Gamers

From my 7 year old:
It was fun. I liked all the levels. I liked how after I won all the first levels with Mario, you got to go back and do the levels again with Luigi, but the levels were different. I found Princess Peach. It always kept me playing and not wanting to put it down.

When I play a Mario game I know exactly what to expect which is good and bad. This Mario game was fun and beautiful but so was Mario galaxy. This seemed to lack the creativity of the galaxy series and was extremely easy to beat. It's fun but forgettable as soon as you beat bowser for the last time. Also the items are not that fun and, in many cases, they make the game that much easier to beat. With so many well written and story driven games out today along with well rounded 3ds games such as Zelda and cave story which mixes action and puzzles with a very good story, it's hard to enjoy this game as much as others. It's a good rental but definitely glad I didn't fork over 40$ for this. When they fuse the story and rpg elements from the paper Mario and the Mario and luigi saga with the creativity and exciting platforming from the galaxy series then I'll give mario a 10 but for now this is game is about a 7.
