An amazing 2D Side-Scroller that live's up to the original, while having some small flaw's.

User Rating: 8.5 | New Super Mario Bros. DS
Introduction: New Super Mario Bros is a remake of Super Mario Bros, An NES classic, and if it didn't exist, gaming would've never been what it is today.

Concept: A 2-D Side-Scroller, which is very similar to the original, which is very addictive and incredibly fun, everyone probably know's the Super Mario Bros formula "Run, Jump and Stomp", Classic 2D Mario game, and it include's some mini-games that we first saw on Super Mario 64 DS, which are also incredibly fun.

10/10

Graphics: Basically since this is a remake, It's the original game, with some new feature's and with a lot of graphical improvment's since this is a remake of an NES game, and well the graphic's have really improved, some level design's are really beautiful, but this is what we should normally expect from a game that came out in 2006.

8/10

Story: typical Super Mario Bros story, Princess Peach get's kidnapped and Mario has to go through 8 World's just to rescue her, but by now you should probably know that Mario games arent really story-based, but I'm one of the people who would be a little bit happy if Nintendo could actually make an original story for a Mario game.

6/10

--------------------------------------------------------

Good Aspect: Addictive Gameplay that could last for hour's, a set of mini game's that are really fuu, there's been really good graphical improvment's.

Bad Aspect: The game is incredibly easy, The original Super Mario Bros is not as easy as this, while this is incredibly easy, you could easily skip two world's in the game, and the challenge just rise's a little bit once you get to World 8.

Secondly, the game is quite short, you can beat it in about 5-7 hour's and probably 10 hour's to beat the game completly and collect everything in it, but since the game is addictive, than it has replay value, so I won't take so many point's off of this problem.

And now, the last problem, You can have a wireless match with someone next to you, I won't explain the specific's of the match, and you can play the mini-games with three people.

Now this isn't that big of a problem, since the multi-player isn't that fun, but around the time this game came out, we had Mario Kart DS, which had a lag-free WiFi, so I would've kind'a liked it if they included WiFi for this game, but it isn't such a big deal.

--------------------------------------------------------
Overall: If your a 2D Super Mario Bro's fan than you shouldn't miss out on this, because it's a great game, with some flaw's, but none of them really affect the gameplay, so I'm not taking off a lot of point's for the flaw's, and actually, if you just own a DS, than get this game, because it's really worth it.
