New Super Mario Bros.
NEW Super Mario Bros. is a side-scrolling game starring Mario and Luigi. It is much like the original, but the characters look more 3-D, and it takes place in a whole new world. Almost every Super Mario Bros. character is back, like the Bullet Bill and Goomba, Lakitu, Koopa, etc., as well as new ones. As usual, 100 coins still gains you an extra life. One thing that's new is that this game brings a 3-D move into the 2-D world— the Wall Kick! This technique lets you reach new areas for more exploring! You will also have the ability to ground-pound once again, so you can smash blocks downward. Also, there are more power-ups, like the Blue Koopa Shell that Mario can use as a shield, and the Mega Mushroom. It still has the old ones too, like the Super Mushroom and the Fire Flower. To sum it all up, New Super Mario Bros. is an awesome platformer. The game also features a world map, different and secret paths (like Super Mario World), and a multiplayer mode where you and another friend can have a friendly battle between Mario and Luigi, or you can work together. You also have the ability to store a power-up on the touch-screen after Mario or Luigi already have a power-up.
