  • Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the newest Super Mario game for the Nintendo Switch and the first 2D Mario game since New Super Mario Bros. U. Many were VERY excited for the game. Myself included. After playing it, the game is VERY CLOSE to perfection. But unfortunately, it has some problems that need to be addressed, and should not have been there in the first place. What exactly are they? But could Super Mario Bros. Wonder still be the BEST Mario game EVER made?

    Was I the only one who thought I’d have to fight the master poplin at the end of shining falls as a kind of final test of strength? Proving you’re worthy to protect the royal seed or something? That would’ve been so cool and I was really disappointed when he just handed it to me. Like think how sick that would’ve been. You’re both atop the shining falls under that golden diamond thing and he’s bouncing all over the place, disappearing and throwing ninja stars or something.

    I love bowser jr. He is one of my favorite Mario characters and he consistently has some of the best boss fights in the entire series but him being the only boss in the game (besides the final boss) is beyond lame. I am so sick of the koopalings and I was so happy to see that they weren’t in wonder and I was excited to see what original bosses the developers were going to cook up but all the bosses just being Jr is so lame and what makes it even worse is that there isn’t even a Bossfight in every world. I’m still really excited for this game but I would be lying if I said my hope hasn’t been dampened a little bit. With the whole wonder effect thing there are so many types of fun and cool bosses they could have come up with. What makes this even sadder is that the developers were talking about how they made it a priority to try and make the bosses more dynamic💀

    I've been playing Mario Wonder by myself and, as of writing this comment, just reached the game's ending and am very close to 100% completing it.
    What you said in this video basically matches my viewpoint, thus I agree... However, for the case of Yoshi and Nabbit being *journalist mode* characters, I would've suggested giving them limited hp, and make power-ups restore lost hp while still not transforming them.
    Overall, amazing Mario game, and undoubtedly among the best of Nintendo Switch's game library.

    Hot take: I am very sad they removed collision for multiplayer. Being able to jump on each other to reach high places and carry each other...or ground pound them and throw them into pits? They're all part of the co-op experience. Without that, you may as well be playing by yourself, since you can't really help each other, outside of saving ghosts and defeating bosses.

    I know that most people won't really make that big of a stink over this, but I will. The lack of character variety for this game's boss fights pisses me off royally! Why is it that Nintendo never gives a s### about trying to make bosses in their modern 2D Mario games as engaging as their platforming and level design?! Oh, they'll put effort into the Bowser fights, but the Koopalings? Make it so every time they do their stupid shell attack upon getting jumped on, they can immediately get jumped on as soon as they pop out before being able to do anything else!
    And just when they finally learned their lesson by having Bowser Jr get mercy invincibility after his shell attacks, they decide to only use him for every f###-ing fight besides the final boss! For a game that they promoted for it's creativity, to not give us any character variety for this game's boss fights is just infuriating! How hard would it really have been for Nintendo to give us some other boss characters to fight? Even if it was the Koopalings again, I would have been happier, what with the Wonder Flower Effects changing things up and actually giving them mercy invincibility, but no! Let's just reuse the same stupid character over and over again! They didn't even care enough to have EVERY world end with a boss fight in this game! That's right, some of the worlds in this game don't even get to end things off with a proper climax! Why does it have to be so much to ask for a 2D Mario game to have a decent line-up of varied bosses that aren't so easily cheesed?!

    While I do consider this the best 2D Mario game ever made (for far too many reasons to mention), I'm still a bit irked about Yoshi being an easy mode character (even if there *ARE* levels that are not made any less challenging by playing as him, and I'll always choose him for those levels since, being Yoshi, he fully deserves it) and the fact that Junior is the boss of *EVERY* single castle outside of the final one (but then again, that too has something redeeming it, namely the fact that all of the boss battles are unique in their own way, not to mention Junior's Wonder form looks sick as hell ngl).
    Overall, I can safely say that Super Mario Bros. Wonder is indeed the Odyssey that 2D Mario was so desperately in need of. I wish Bowser had been given all-new henchmen for the game to serve as bosses (like how Odyssey did with the Broodals), and have Wonder Junior just be the semi-final boss.

And while wishing for a returning villain or a new villain that's not Bowser is a personal nitpick, that won't deter my enjoyment when I finally play this game.

    I'm gonna be honest with you, Demeech. Though, I only played the demo, it definitely surpassed my expectations. I honestly think Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a legit contender for GOTY (not that the Game Awards matter but, I digress)
    I do wish we had more power ups, such as returning ones like the Cape Feather or the Blue Shell, but the ones we got are pretty lit. I still can't believe Nintendo made one of your ideas canon! 11:05
    Also, I get the weird feeling that the Drill Mushroom is gonna be an item for the next Mario Kart game (assuming Nintendo even makes it)
    Regarding Mario's new VA, he seems fine. I know this isn't really mentioned in the video but I don't get why he got a lot of flak for being a "no-name" VA. Charles had a background in advertising and prior to his role in Mario Teaches Typing 2, no one knew who he was either. Plus Kevin has been doing the voices for the Nintendo Directs so I don't really get the hate. He sounds fine.

    it's weird to me that the reception to this game has been so much more positive than recent mario sidecrollers. Do gamers _really_ value little visuals flourishes _that_ much? Because Wonder is really that much different as a _game_ than the previous few entries.
    It's actually _worse_ in some ways. Wonder Flowers are neat, but it becomes apparent pretty quickly that gameplay also takes a turn toward being more shallow and linear than the game's base gameplay once they become active. And they also gutted Mario's kit of actions so they could tie them to Badges, which often just give you one of the lost abilities in a truncated way.
    Sure, it's nice to see the games having a bit more personality, but it hardly does enough for the game to elevate to the extent that it justifies how much better the reception has been.

    Welp, as I promised I gonna drop my review about my main issue with wonder and that is the boss line up is failing in so many levels that I gonna split up to sections:
    The first is in veraity, not the biggest issue generally speaking but this boss line not offer quality in fights beside the final boss nor quantity either, bowser jr isn't your SA2 shadow or DMC3 vergil and defenitley not feel too justified to appear over and over other than being in your way.
    The second issue is how the boss line up don't excuse to be bare bone say what you will on the koopaling overuse at least they change it enough so it is acceptable. This isn't in some the standards of the og SMB I would say is in the 3 worst boss line ups in mario and even high on my top 10 worst boss line ups.
    And last in my opinion the most important thing in a boss line up it failing at being a pivot point for the game to rise in difficulty, a good boss should preapare all of you skills you learned and see how you execute your mastery, yet wonder don't provide it really like for example the gimmick of the final boss literraly came a bit before it did have some tutorial but I do wish said gimmick would have been on it's world specifically.
    And yeah what I want to point out I do think the boss line up really ruin wonder for me to some degree like as a game I say is better than odyssey which I like but it hasn't aged the best if you ask me but wonder became more a pick your poison case I do really hope we gonna have DLC so at least we have a proper boss line up

    I wasn't aware that the Yoshis were invincible/easy mode. That's such a stupid design decision, honestly.
    Wario and Waluigi teaming up with Mario and Luigi in a mainline game is everyone's dream, and it would make for so many unique and hilarious moments. It's just too bad that Nintendo is so strictly, vehemently opposed to the idea of Wario and Waluigi showing up in a mainline game - they're so opposed to it that even the prospect of enormous success and profit doesn't move them at all. It's truly one of the mysteries of the gaming industry.
