I personally am going to pick up the game. I know that it will not be as challenging as Super Mario World for the SNES or Mario Odyssey. However, I didn’t get the chance to play it on the Wii U and I still think it looks like a lot of fun. Not to mention my wife is not a video gamer but she liked Mario Odyssey. Any game that I can buy that she might like so that she can understand why I buy so many games is worth it to me. :)
Don't give her the easy characters.
This game is actually harder than odyssey if you don't use the assist characters. In fact super Mario odyssey is the easiest Mario game ever if you use assist mode.
@@meriotroid Hell even without assist mode Odyssey is much easier than this game. I don't recommend NSMBU for 60€ though, get tropical freeze instead.
Me too
Mario odyessy isn't that easy unless your doing assist. Which I only used once and never touched again I think.
Me: *sees two video uploads in the same day*
Me: *clicks both to make sure we are still lovely people*
"unless your name is ceave"

I'm getting this game purely for the nostalgia of inviting my friends inside from the bus stop in 4th grade to play new mario bros Wii every day after school, it was so much fun. I'm 18 now but having this to play with my brother will be a huge nostalgia trip for me
Same for me, I totally agree. I am 17 and I always plaid it with my nephews. Always so much fun. Kinda sad those times are over.
0/10 no blue toad
Vsauce Puppet 0/10. You comment everywhere.
TheMarioManiac same with you m8, even on twitter

I've played NSMB on DS but sold it eventually, also played NSMB Wii but eventually sold my entire Wii for some reason so buying this to make up my mistake, because I especially like 2D Mario games. Something magical about them :)
I’m personally buying this as soon as I can. Haven’t played since new super Mario bros, so I’ve been waiting for this since I got my switch last year(in April). Looks good!!
Is it worth it?
I still hope we’ll get a new entry in the New Super Mario Bros. series with a new art style, 2.5D levels with highly detailed backgrounds and depth like the new Donkey Kong Country series and some new gameplay mechanics. That would make the ‘New’ part in the title meaningful again

I'm a new Switch/Nintendo owner, and I can't help but see so much negativity on switch game videos and reddit posts. Is the Nintendo fanbase just obnoxious and snobby? I've never played a SMB game and thought this would be a perfect type of game for my girlfriend and I. But I got so many reddit replies saying this game isn't worth it and to go play Donkey Kong or Kirby. But THEN people shit on Kirby for being easy. I ignored people complaining about Mario Ace Tennis and bought it. I play that daily now. I want to buy Super Mario Party, but I still don't understand if people bitching about 4 boards is really that game breaking or if people are just picky. I don't know what information is valid anymore. I understand the Nintendo tax, and I don't like that an old game without much improvement is being priced as a AAA title. But being told to wait for a price drop that will never happen isn't helping me. If it's going to be a fun experience for my girlfriend and I, then I don't really care about the price. It's just frustrating seeing people tear a game down if it isn't exactly what they want it to be.
If this will be your first SMB game and you want something to play with your girl, then you'll both probably have a blast with this. The criticism this game is getting is valid, but doesn't apply as much to your situation. As a Mario game on Switch, I'd say most people would rate Odyssey much higher, but if you're looking for local multiplayer, you'll have a good time with NSMBU Deluxe.
Itz Jolly don’t listen to people on the internet bro if you want a game and think you’d enjoy it then just buy it who cares what some ass hole on the internet says
"Is the Nintendo fanbase just obnoxious and snobby? "
yes.
If you never played this game then ok, go buy it
But people who had the game on the Wii U, especially the ones that had both games in a single disc originally don’t have anything to do here
@@RayoMcQueen95990 well that is fine I mean its like people complaining about a pc port of a game they bought. Just dont buy it
They should make a 2D Mario game with a handrawn artstyle , with different mechanics but with no gimmicks and bowser should not be the villain it should be bowser jr . Many people would think it’s really different and would buy it.
I don't think the artstyle needs a change. Just give the characters and backgrounds more detail.
This game already exist it's yoshi's Island...
Pretty much every Yoshi game here...
Waluigi should be the villain and then everyone would buy it instantly.
Daisy and Rosalina: exist
Nintendo: goes out of the way to create a Peach clone in the most stupid and creepy way possible
I love how people complain about Mario having too many clone characters yet they want Bowsette (who's a clone of Peach) to be canon. Totally not hypocrisy
I’m planing to get this because being portable will let me enjoy it way more! Awesome review as always btw!
They need to port super Mario 3D world.
This ^ ^
I’m sure they will!! Later this year I bet!!
Luis N. I sure hope so
Pack it with mario sunshine and both mario galaxy
SpiritualPunk well that’s a lot of work and they’ll probably just remake the games separately or I’m sure exactly what could Nintendo do.
Love the Ceave shout-out
Honestly he's probably the reason I'm buying this, to do challenges
Well without boost mode some challenges may not be as possible 😂
@@seanplayscl thats true it did save him a lot
Gotta love that Ceave Gaming reference!
Really good jop with this review but I defer on something, the art part. For me this kind of art is the true essence of super Mario games colorful magical and simplistic. If you compare the trajectory of art style in smash games at first they try to go the realistic textures and shadows later and for the best they stick whit the colorful and simple just look at Mario for example. Once again thanks a lot for this review and keep been awesome.
7 years already?? And yet... despite at least starting most Mario games released since then, I've never gotten around to playing this one... though it is somewhere on my To-Play list...for the Wii U. Mostly because it's modded and I can easily install anything onto it I wish, but alas...IDK, it's kind of weird to play a 7 year old game without any major additions on the Switch, when the original seemed fine as it was. I think we're all thankful for the memes this game has already delivered on though...if you, erm...know what I mean.
Alex: "The forking world map"
Me: "Pardon?"
Aww, that little poke at Ceave. Cracked me up.
Weird to look at that 8/10 score at the end. Because I totally agree, the game is that good, but also... not for 60 bucks worth of good in 2019? Idunno. So weird. Play it if you havent already. And get those sweet sweet 600 gold points in the eshop
I have a question: If I want to play four-player local multiplayer, does one player always have to play as an ‘easy’ character (such as Nabbit or Toadette), or is blue toad available for multiplayer still?
Blue toad is completely omitted. Someone (or two) is stuck with the easier characters.
num488 That’s annoying. It’s also kind of strange that they would remove blue toad, anyway.
@@num488 Press L on Yellow Toad for Blue Toad.
Alex- if that tickled your pickle
Me- mhm yeah.... wait WHAT
It makes me mad that they sell a 7 year old port at a full retail price
Imagine how we street fighters fans felt but instead we got a 360 port over 10 years later
They didn't really get so so much money when it was on the wii u because it didn't sell so well, so I think what they did is just what it is supposed to be 😄. They shall make a very big attack in video games after they returned, so they won't ever lose again! I see what they did is superb!
M Aljishi a great strategy yes,but it just doesn’t have enough new content for old fans,MK8D did it better imo
@M Aljishi
I agree, releasing it for people to play again because it didn’t sell well is a good idea. But at full retail price? That’s definitley not cool.
I'm more ok with it because it has Luigi u packaged in it. I know that was the case for the wii u version, but when I bought it that wasn't the case :/
Alex Olney did u have NSMB2 on 3ds?If yeah tell me which did u like more nsmb2 or this switch version?
8:19 Nice Ceave Gaming reference. 👍
If you didn't have a Wii U then sure. If you did then not worth it.
I still prefer Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze.
I prefer this game by a smidge. I genuinely prefer the Mario style, although I prefer tropical freeze over the rest of the nsmb games for certain. Even tho I enjoy them all.
Yet another review with more negatives than positives, and yet gives it an 8. Why?
Well I think you missed my point. They said more bad than good, but still have it an 8, which is as high score. So the score and comments don’t equal out.
@@brantlisk786 @luigi gaming is using irony... You know.
As a game it's really good. There's just not enough new stuff for a port, which brought the score down, I'm guessing.
It's not really profitable to take shots against Nintendo. On top of that the review score system is kinda broken to a point where almost everything gets a high score.
Luigi gaming, I played/have it on Wii U. It’s a good game.
I actually really like these ports. I didn’t have a Wii u but it had so many good games I’d love to now play on switch so I think that’s enough, I don’t think they need to add loads of new content for it to do well.
That being said the only issue I have is the price. Given how old the game is and that it’s a port so most of the work has already been done, you’d think they could be a bit cheaper.
Just picked it up on Switch for Nintendo's Black Friday %30 off sale (missed it on the Wii-U version). Thanks for the review!
I'm in love with this game. Super Mario World nostalgia big time
Being that I never had a Wii u I'm looking forward to this game on the switch
I love the nsmb series. I play coop with my sisters and it’s good sibling bonding. I don’t think I’m going to spend $60 just to replay this game. If they added new worlds, that would be a different story but it’s literally the same game with peachette
The Peachette jump thingy was in sync and made my day better
All I want ported on the Switch is Super Mario 3D Land, I don’t mind World cause I haven’t got that on my Wii U, but I love Super Mario 3D Land on 3DS and I don’t mind playing a port of that on Switch for 100+ hours
Please! Don't miss super Mario 3D world! It's amazing!
Federico Gastón López Silvera i mean it doesn’t look amazing but i’ll give it a go if it’s on switch
Like many others, I never had a Wii U so I'm definitely getting this game! Loving all these deluxe ports.
I bought Mario U Deluxe on day one. It is totally worth it! :D
I am a big fan of 2D Mario, but I never got to play this one. The Wii U was just too expensive and didn't look too appealing. It just looked like the Wii but with a tablet added to it. Plus, New Super Mario Bros. 2, a similar game, released on the 3DS around the same time. So naturally, I skipped this one. But now years later, it feels AWESOME to finally play this game. Let me tell you, it's worth $60. You are getting two games for the price of one, aren't ya? ;P
Shoulda been with a bundle thats a pack of remakes of the original and new super games.
I wanted New Super Mario Bros. 3 rather then a full on port.
I think i'll just break out my copy on the WiiU
6:44 if you push L while looking at yellow toad in the menu it becomes blue toad..
You guys do realize that blue toad is still in the game, as a pallet swap for yellow toad
>Uses the NSMBW music in a NSMBUD review
Its still NSMB
Snook true, it’s the same game every time lol(except Luigi U kind of)
Does this come with the Luigi DLC content on switch? From what I've hear that is like the lost levels, real difficult....
Mr. Orange in New Luigi U, Mario isn’t anywhere, you use Luigis unique controls like in Mario 2(NES) which is its high jump, also the timer is set to 100 levels(unless you play as the stupid easy mode Toadette) which makes short but a bit difficult levels
Try it out, it’s better than Mario U
To be honest i like playing super mario games as a kid. I enjoyed Odessy, but then again i did kinda notice that the price of any Switch game doesn't go down even by 1 cent after a couple of years.... unlike ps4 games they really become low price after some years. I guess i will try and see if the price is worth it (50% reason) + i did like the gameplay mechanics & aside from the fact that I did not have any nintendo console after the gameboy color(i was a playstation gamer since 2000)
Don't buy it it's not worth it there are much better games worth the same like Breath Of The Wild, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Kirby Star Allies, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Smash Bros Ultimate, etc.
Poor ceave, he can’t do some of those challenges on the switch version now
I’m personally in the camp that really likes like New Super Mario Bros, which I don’t think it deserves the hate it gets and will be buying it as someone who didn’t experience it on the Wii U.
Same
That music at the end made me so happy I peed a little.
This game is still worth it in my opinion. Im getting it next month as i have never played mario on this version. The last i played was 64. Dont go on me on that maker. I dont like playing custom made. I rather have a polished and complete one. Thats just me. My opinion. If you disagree, so be it. Its my money, my experience.
I needed to replay “forking world map” at 2:27 twice. I was somewhat disappointed when I figured out what you were really saying. 🤣
i pre ordered this, and its coming in the mail today. i cant breath because im so excited to play it
9:15 you go back to the map so if the level if to hard you can use a power up
Surely a quick menu popup asking if you want to try again or return to the world map would allow total flexibility.
I still wish Peachette did not exist. I think they should've simply made the crown power up give Toadette the same dress and abilities. No need to turn her into some weird-ass clone of Peach. Sucks that in a 4-player game, someone will always have to play on easy mode. Not sure why they removed the Blue Toad (RIP)
Didn't you said the same thing with Gamexplain's review?
@@mariajimenafigueroa233 and?
@@Ronnie06spartan On an other note: I agree, Toadette should just stay the same when using the Super Crown (just with Peach's floating abilites). No need to turn her into a weird clone (especially since Peachette inspired people to created million of creepy fanarts and fan fictions)
I can't help thinking that Nintendo deliberately picked Peachette for this game, knowing how weird it was and knowing it would get people talking about a game that would otherwise slip under the radar.
Love your honest reviews guys
Even if you haven't played the original, save your money. If you really want it, wait for a discount, a big discount at that.
Big Yellow I’m buying this day one. I love 2D Mario games and never played this.
Big Yellow there probably won’t be getting a discount till like 2020
That's exactly what I'm going to do. Would rather get the Mega Man X Legacy Collections for that price, than this for full price.
Well you get two games in one with some new features as well so yeah it would be nice if it were like 40 instead but I don’t mind paying 60 just because it shows Nintendo you actually like their games and don’t just want cheap steals from them
i used my gold points and got almost $10 off nippaaaaaaa
I have already have this game for my Wii U. And I had really wanted to get it for my Switch. Mainly because of Toadette and that it is more portable. And I can play that game any where I want to play it. But thanks to some guy from another you tube Nintendo channel. Was telling me in his own way of how much of an idiot I am to want to get the game again. So that really put me off of wanting to get that game now. And another reason I wanted that game. Was to hopefully make up for another horrible lousy birthday I had last Friday.:(
They should have put more content into the game. They would have kept blue toad and add new characters like Daisy. I never owned the Wi U so, it looks fairly interesting. But I wished that they would have put a little bit more work in to making it as “deluxe” as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Blue Toad Is In The Game Just Hold ZL Or L On Yellow Toad’s Character Spot Then You’ll Be Able To Play With Blue Toad
I feel like you are using an m-cable to capture footage. There's some nice AA going on here that's not available with the main game.
I would say. If you have NSMBU on Wii U then don’t buy it.
TheMarioManiac well if you have a Wii U and smbu on the Wii U why would you even need to say this it’s common sense 😑👏
Unless you want portable
I have a wii U but I don't have the game, and I still won't buy it. that game isn't worth 60 dollars. they didn't even bother to upgrade the graphics pff
i buy it later its the same as the wii u so yeah i never played the wii u version they did it also on the game boy color (super mario bros. deluxe. 1. super mario bros. 1, plus super mario bros. the lost levels (as the super player world)
I really wanna play as Toadette, but it seems there isn't much to double dip for. I'll wait for a discount; if I really get an itch to play the game, I can play my copy of the Wii U version in the meantime.
Its almost July 2023...and i can't wait to buy and play this tomorrow cause i never played much on my Switch lite until watching yhe recently watched Direct.....gotta have it bruh😊
I think the game is totally worth it. It has a huge map with some very unique levels, but thats not it. Don't forget about the boost rush, challenges, coin battle, new super luigi u so after getting bored of the story mode you can just do the challenges. The game can be annoying tho. You can get stuck on a level and rage for so much that you just give up and not play for a week.
8:20 Ceave is the god of the boost mode.
Nintendo in January: Here, have a tweaked port of an old game at full price. Oh and have a couple of NES games, oh and we decided not to have a Direct this January, we've been sitting on our hands since the game awards.
One last thing for Nintendo in January 2019: Ok, we had ENOUGH! The Super Crown ONLY works for Toadette!
2 days left and i can barelly wait for itttttttttt
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Same! I’ve Preordered It And I Just Want it To Be Released! 😂
I have to say I am disappointed there is no Blue Toad. Now there is only 3 normal characters 1 easy character and one really easy character. This means if 4 people play together someone will have to play an easy character. More characters is a good thing not a bad thing.
Now for the big question
Is it amiibo compatible?
7:14 "No I'm not actually gonna say it (But I sure as hell am going to *show* it)"
as i have never played this game on the wii u im glad i can finally play it
Thanks for mentioning the blue toad people; and if it was only one it was probably me.
I'll pick it up now, it's on sale for $26 at GameStop for black Friday 2021
Will be buying this for our new switch for xmas. We never had a Wii u so it's great value for us and is 47.00 cdn now.
Should I get this or Donkey Kong Tropical freeze? Never played either on the previous systems. Mostly for single player but also for 2 player co-op
NikMetalEx if you like challenging platformers then defines Donkey Kong, the game is quite hard, sometimes even frustrating. If you want something easier and more accessible then pick New Super Mario Bros
the first minutes where quite hard to understand for me because I'm not a native English speaker and therefor have some problems with this professional review English, other than that it was a good video.
So what if you wanted to play this with 3 of your mates? Someone would have to play as an easy character? Bring back blue toad!
5:12 "tickle your pickle"
.. ???
Press F for blue toad or as I call him that blue guy.
Lwlysunshine He’s In The Game Hold ZL Or L While On Yellow Toad’s Character Spot And You’ll See Blue Toad! Then Select Him And Have Fun
The challenge mode in the game is so addicting
So when you do 4 player multi player will someone be stuck with nabbit or toadette?
I really wanted just a classic Mario game, Oddessy was fun but I prefer 'Mario bros' or 'Mario 3D Land' (Nintendo 3DS).
7:27 You've been watching matpat haven't you?
I swear they dropped boost mode just to spite Ceave
Want blue toad? Go to yellow toad and press L
This was my dream, play nsmbu and nslu on the go
I’m so excited to play this tomorrow!!!! 🥳💕🤩
I had that thing that had both Luigi and Mario in it so to me it’s almost exactly the same
What I really want to know from this review, is who’s the yellow toad noob at 8:26?
I got NSMB on Wii U, but didn't 100% it, and I haven't bought Luigi U. Is it worth getting it again for Switch? (Ignoring SMM2 by the way in this question)
Thankfully I’ve never played the original so it’s basically new to me
The funny thing is that they used the wii's end credits
Sounds like 7/10
So if crafted world don't impress, I'll take dkc tropical freeze as my first platformer in switch
The 3 game are really amazing (crafted world is not out yet but it's look great) but if you have to choose only one take tropical freeze...
@@psycorboctobre1440 yeah. I have limited time for gaming now. So I Waiting out for a nice platformer, hopefully something entirely new (not a porteluxe), given a choice.
Tropical Freeze is definitely worth buying. Another great platformer with tons of content is Shovel Knight Treasure Trove. If you like pixel art, it’s an amazing game, with soon to be four different campaigns and one of my favourite platformers. Rayman Legends is also fun, and if we’re talking platformer/metroidvania, I’d recommend Monster Boy, Steamworld Dig 2 and Dust: An Elysian Tail, the latter being probably my personal favourite game.
Don't forget there are some awesome, cheap indie platformers on the Switch. Celeste is a must-play, and The Messenger is outstanding.
@@neverritt for sure! Indies get a special love in my digital collection. :D
My childhood game was New Super Mario Bros Wii but i didnt get super far. I have SMM2 but i tire of it and i long for an official 2D platformer. Is it worth it under my conditions? Or should I just get Rayman Legends definitive edition.
Also, Ive played the original games. Ive only beaten Super Mario World and Super Mario Bros, but I got the the final level in Mario 2.
Also, I can play Rayman legends at my friends house who I go to all the time (yes even in quarantine) but neither of us have any Mario 2D platformer?
Also I dont have a WiiU and wont get one for a LOOOOOOONG time. I love the Luigi physics, and I always love a good challenge.
Honestly at this point I think theres no question that Id like this. But im getting thise because i got a game i thought id really like for christmas but i didnt like it enough to keep playing... im just cautious not to waste 60 more dollars.
I didn't have a Wii U, so this is a must cop for me.
Now if it came bundled with 3D World I would def buy, but i’ve been buying this game since the DS so i’ll pass. Not worth $60.
Wow I Have to Buy it, The Cute Level is Untouchable 😍😍😍
Nobody fucking cares, its just a god damn port
@@YasRKH13145 I’m surprised CZcams didn’t delete ur comment I can’t even say a single curse word on a comment otherwise it would get deleted :(
Luigi u was a bundle in 2016 on Wii u (or at least that's what the eShop says)
Reviewing an old game with high expectations just comes off as stupid.
Gonna get this game for my 4 year old as my kids first mario game.
I hear a lot of people give the Wii U ports the same comment: "It's great if you didn't get a chance to play it on the Wii U." But for someone who owned a Wii U and a decent amount of games on it I don't see how adding a deluxe to the end and adding 1 new character to replace another is a good idea. To me Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey and Smash (and... well... Arms) are the only new first party Games on the switch. Hardcore Splatoon Fans (like your self Alex) could probably argue that Splatoon 2 is 'new' as well seeing how it has heaps of new content as well as the Octopath Expansion (in which I could probably agree with to some extent) But take MarioKart for example. Ever since the SNES There has been a brand new Mario kart of
every console (and handheld as well) I COULD list them all But you eventually come to Mariokart 8 and then Mariokart 8 Deluxe. It seems to me that 8 deluxe is this big scar on the history of Mariokart being the fist Mario kart that isn't well.... New! I'm not seeing these ports as a good idea I'm more seeing them as Lazy work from Nintendo. I do hope that they will step up their "game" with... New Games in 2019 like Yoshi's Crafted world, Luigi's Mansion 3 and Animal crossing.
I would’ve preferred a Mario maker port over this tbh
Brenden Edgeworth so would EVERYONE.
A pretty good game, got it on Wii U, and will double dip on sale or secondhand :3
