I have a huge Mario gap in my gaming history because I ended up going: nes > Sega Genesis > ps1 > ps2 > ps3/wii > PC gaming (where I am today) there’s a lot I missed from Nintendo over the years but I recently played through this game and I personally loved how original and new/fresh it felt. Definitely reminded me of how i felt about Mario 3 on nes when I first played it.
What say you? Did you enjoy it? Want to see this become a new series in the Mario saga?

I think it is fantastic. Great level design, some of the wonder flowers had me laughing and some had me crying, though I have yet to 100% it (getting close). It’s 2D Mario done well! It’s not supposed to be baldurs gate level deep, it’s Mario wahooo
I think if I was playing alone I would like it more. The co-op design, particularly online, is not that great.
Of course they’re going to make more.
It’s the best 2D Mario since Super Mario World. I finished it with 6/6 medals (i.e., completed every last thing in the game). The five-star levels are a good challenge, although “The Final-Final Test” (final special level after acquiring 5/6 medals) is just cruel.
Feels like they took the best ideas from Mario Maker, polished it up to a glowing shine, mixed in some great movement, threw in a metric fuckton of whimsy and joy, and overall made a great game.
