'''''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''''' is a [[sidescroller|sidescrolling]] [[Mario (series)|''Mario'']] game announced for the [[Wii]], to be released Holiday [[2009]]. It is the follow-up to ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', a [[2006]] game released for the [[Nintendo DS]]. In addition to the single-player experience, the game will feature a multiplayer mode for up to four [[player]]s. It will feature more [[item]]s, more [[level]]s and more [[enemies]] than the DS predecessor. It will also be the first title to support Nintendo's new "demo play" mode.

The game will follow the traditional storyline of [[Princess Peach]] getting kidnapped by [[Bowser]].<ref>[http://e3.gamespot.com/video/6211673/ New Super Mario Bros.

I was thinking they could have these big ships come in, and they’ve got these big chains all over them, and they drop a plate down with cake on it (laughs).<br>'''Wired.com:''' That’s good.

The regular mode of the game can be played in single-player or multiplayer cooperative mode. Players can be freely added and removed between levels. As in [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' games]], the camera zooms out when players move farther away from the screen. However, there is a limit and players who are far behind can still be kicked out of the screen. When a player dies, he reappears in a bubble. Other players can burst that bubble to allow the reappearing player to continue playing, or they can wait to be able to collect more power-ups for themselves. [[? Blocks]] usually create one item for each player - for example, a block produces four [[mushroom]]s when four players are playing. Players can cooperate by picking each other up. Also, Blue and Yellow Toads are playable in Multiplayer.

When one player grabs the [[flagpole]] at the end of the level, the other players have about three seconds to grab it as well if they want to score points with it. If they don't catch it in time, the level still ends. After that, players get a tally telling players how many coins they have collected and how many enemies they have stomped. The players are ranked according to those points.

The basic style of the game resembles ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' on the [[Nintendo DS]]. Players can collect [[Star Coins]] and find secret pipes. Parts of the ground have been seen moving.

Players play the game holding the [[Wii Remote]] sideways. Tilting the Wii Remote, as well as shaking can activate certain items, such as changing the direction of a light, and using the Propeller Suit

It's possible to ride on [[Yoshi]] as well.<ref name=NSMBW>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTo3m3pVQyM Trailer]</ref> The [[Spin Jump]] from ''[[Super Mario World]]'' returns.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0DGkafnnZY E3 Gameplay Video]</ref>

Also premiering in the game is a new feature tentatively named "demo play". It will help casual gamers stuck at partcular parts of the game by taking over control until the player is ready to resume their game.<ref name=DemoPlay>[http://www.usatoday.com/tech/gaming/2009-06-04-e3-wrapup_N.htm A quick-play wrap-up for E3 summit - USATODAY.com]</ref>

According to [[Nintendo]], [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] has been struggling to add multiplayer in a Mario game for a long time. He further explained that Miyamoto tried to experiment with multiplayer aspects at the start of most of his Mario projects. But when this experiment failed, the developers and the players focused back to what they are used to, single-player. One of the reasons this was not achieved previous is due to technical limitations. With the Wii's hardware, it allowed him to make sure the game had all the items and enemies in the screen at once, and having the camera focusing on all the players at once.<ref>[http://e3.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/696129/New-Super-Mario-Bros-Achieves-Shigeru-Miyamotos-Dream-Multiplayer.html New Super Mario Bros.

Additionally, Nintendo is planning to add the new "demo play" feature to their future titles, with ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' being the flagship title for the feature.<ref name=DemoPlay/> A patent on the game, then called "Kind Code", was filed by Miyamoto on June 30, 2008. It showed that it could come in three modes: Game (in which the player plays the game normally until they get stuck, at which point they can view a video that appears on the screen's top right corner on how to bypass the situation in question), Digest (in which the player watches the developers play through the game until the player decides to join the game at a particular point; the game cannot be saved in this mode), and Scene Menu (where players go directly to specific parts of the game without loading their games or watching the digest). It is unknown if any of these features will be realised in the version presented in ''New Super Mario Bros.''<ref>[http://kotaku.com/5127251/nintendo-patent-reveals-potential-paradigm-shift-in-design Kotaku - Nintendo Patent Reveals Potential Paradigm Shift in Design - Wii]</ref>
