A mix of old and new. The fun of the original Super Mario Bros on NES and mixing it with the future. Allowing to play handheld, anywhere you want. If you like the original, you will be happy with this one.

Brings me back to playing the first Mario in my old school Nintendo.

I bought this for my son. He's 4. He loves Mario right now. The setup with characters for younger kids to play was a fantastic addition.

This was the Wii U's big launch game in 2012. I played through it then, along with New Super Luigi U expansion that followed later, and 100-percented both of them. They were equal parts fun and frustrating, due to Nintendo's pixel-perfect stage design and propensity for devious challenge. Nothing about this game exactly reinvents the Super Mario Bros. formula, but that's not a bad thing, because these games are always clever and fun, and knowing what you're in for makes it easy to jump right in and know exactly what you're doing. Re-playing this game seven years after its initial release, I still found myself unable to put it down until I'd completely finished it. The inclusion of the New Super Luigi U DLC gives you an extremely challenging experience to jump into once the core game is finished, its shorter but much more difficult levels always beckoning you back to try again after repeated failures. Competing this part of the game is a satisfying and cathartic experience. New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe may not be a necessary purchase for those who owned and played it for the Wii U, but it's still a solid game that has been given a second chance at life on the much more successful Switch, and that's a win for everybody. Having a version that you can take with you on the go is a definite added bonus, since it's a game that can easily be played in short bursts and lends itself well to the portable format.

It's been so cool introducing this generation of young gamers to titles from the past on the new systems they're playing today. This doesn't disappoint. The slight update is welcome, and the visuals are crisp. Fun title!

As someone who did not play or buy the Wii U version. I have enjoyed this updated version of Mario very much. If you haven't played a Mario game before at times it can be frustrating to fail, but overall the game is made to be average difficulty. With Game Club the 20% off helps. But at $60 not sure if worth the price. Depends on how much you love Mario. Nintendo is making a lot of ports and charging full price. Feel only Nintendo can get away with that and be successful. Honestly it is what it is. Game works great and looks great. I do recommend if you have never bought or would like a game to play of the go which has short levels so you can play little by little on the go.

Fun game, good to play with family. I like that you can play with 4 characters so everyone has a chance

I’m practically a beginner when it comes to understanding video games and how to play them but this game is truly adventurous! It’s not as bad and my boyfriend and I get to play together as well. It was truly a good investment! Would recommend!

A great game for you and the family....or just you.

Old school platform at its finest, if you like any of the old games, you’ll definitely like this.

I bought this game for the wife as she was the one who wanted it desperately. I have to say it is a different kind of Mario. You can play two players at the same time, which is a pro and con at the same time. If the other person is not a good gamer then you will be frustrated by constantly dying. The story is pretty basic Bowser gets princess and you must rescue her. Gameplay is a combination of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World. Overall if you like Mario you will like this game.

I really enjoyed this game. It is also a great family game.

Very fun game my kids love the game and play it all the tkme

Got it discounted. Fun as all heck! Definitely a couch/family game. Tons of moments to be made.

Our family enjoys playing this game together a lot. A great way to spend time together. There are a lot of fun little interactions all over the place. Love using Yoshi to swallow not just enemies by also other players. :)

Bought this during the Mar10 sale after checking the reviews. It's a good Mario style game that allows for some variety in the characters you use, including a super-easy mode for the younger set (or those of us who aren't too good at platformer games). I haven't had a chance yet to try the co-op mode, but single-player has worked well so far. Only complaint is minor - it would be nice to get a description of what items are supposed to do for those who are unfamiliar with them.

My wife was recently playing the original Super Mario Bros & Mario 3 and I wanted to get her something in the vein. This definitely scratches that itch. Very much similar to those and Super Mario World. The graphics are updated though and it's a great follow up to the one on the original Wii. I should add this is a port of the one that came out on WiiU with the Luigi version added (which to my understanding are not new levels, just new game mode). Rayman Legends is another great side scrolling game. Amazing platformer and probably one of the most gorgeous games I've played. Anyways, if you liked Mario Bros 3 or super mario world, this is a great successor.

First I will begin by saying the Best Buy on Joe Battle never disappoints with its excellent customer service. Thank you Mr Zamorra and David. Now to my review of fun time with the family... or as its called new super mario deluxe. The game transforms everyone in my family into their 12 year version. The Kid in us that doesn't worry about bills or chores.... only getting to the next level, one kuppa at a time. So yes. Buy this game. Also, I had more fun with this game than Super Mario Odyssy. Because you can play Co-Op for most (all the game modes). Just picture and your daughter, stomping kuppas and taking Bowser. Just know this is classic mario at its best. Side scrolling mayhem. Simple fun. Plenty of secrets for the perfectionist. But always fun for the whole family.

Our favorite family game night game! The levels are hard/easy enough for my 4 year old with the help of mom sometimes :)

The detail work in this game is great. I missed it on the Wii U as I skipped that platform. Getting to catch it on the Switch has been a real treat. Recommended for anyone who missed it the first time around.
