I started looking at this thinking it would be a mere copy of new super Mario bros wii, but this looks better than the ds one. The power-ups look great, and look like they will breathe new life into these games. :)

I love Mario and I will get this game day 1 though I do with the graphics would of been a little better like at least Mario Bros. U or a new art direction something like hand drawn animations but you now, whatever. If it has Mario's name on it, then it will sell millions.

Not to criticize or anything(i love mario anyways), but seriously, why the heck are they releasing four mario games all around the same time? New super mario bros u, new super mario bros 2, paper mario, and luigi's mansion. I mean some people don't count lugi's mansion as part of the series but three is a lot still. I think they should have just put the elements of this game into the wii u game and had either luigi's mansion or paper mario or both on 3ds. I still will buy one of the four that are coming out though cause i love this series! Just wondering why they're making poor people like me have to choose between these! Too many good titles!

Oh, I so do hope the store I ordered this from manages to send it out in time for me to get it today! If not, I'll be so cranky all weekend. But I guess I could take the time to finish Kingdom Hearts...

Oh man. I love this game! I really love when playing a level and the the background gets more blurrier depending on the amount of 3D you're using, as if the background looks farther than the foreground.

Its an ok game, not much of a thrill is in it. I thought collecting coins would have given me more of a jolt but I was wrong.

This game is amazing.

They did say there was going to be down loadable content coming so I hope they
extend the coin meter to 20-50 million :D

Hey i have the game i really wish someone had the game around here in paoli. But the new golden fire flower is a blast and if you did not know...select solo player and hold L+R and select a profile. Luigi is silver.

Honestly, it's my favorite 3DS game. It's Mario but better than what it normally is. I just love it and, at least once or twice a day, I play it. If I had to recommend a 3DS game to a newcomer, this would be it.

Hey All,
I own the new SMB2, I have completed Level 6 (thanks to the Super Golden Leaf - I am now attempting to complete all levels without said Leaf :). But I am perplexed about how I get into the two "hidden" levels (you go to one of them from Level 1), but no idea how to do it. Can anyone out there come to my assistance - it would be greatly appreciated! Take care all :)

I thought it was going to be so good, but it was the easiest modern sidescroller I've ever played. I'm disappointed.
