I played Super Mario Bros. Wonder on my Switch OLED and it’s fantastic! The levels are creative, the graphics pop on the OLED screen, and it’s so much fun with friends. A must-play for Mario fans!

Remember that time we huddled around the Switch, controllers in hand, giggling like kids as Mario transformed into a giant, lumbering elephant? Or the heart-pounding races we had online, trying to snag the most coins and bragging rights? Super Mario Bros. Wonder wasn't just a game for us; it was a family adventure filled with wonder (pun intended!), laughter, and pure gaming joy. This latest Mario escapade whisked us away to the vibrant Flower Kingdom, bursting with color and even more colorful characters. Each stage was like a surprise box, thanks to the wacky "Wonder" effects that changed everything from gravity to perspective. One minute we were stomping Goombas, the next we were bouncing on giant bubbles or swinging through levels as monkeys! It kept us guessing and grinning the whole way through. And let's not forget the new power-ups! Elephant Mario became our instant favorite, his goofy animations and trunk attacks leaving us in stitches. We also loved burrowing underground with Drill Mario and strategically using Bubble Mario to trap enemies and reach high ledges. Each power-up added a unique twist, making every level feel fresh and exciting. The online multiplayer was a surprisingly smooth experience, letting us race and explore stages with friends near and far. While couch co-op is still the ultimate Mario party, the online option was a welcome addition, especially for those moments when geography separated us. Now, no game is perfect, and Wonder had a few minor snags. The music, while pleasant, didn't quite stick in our heads like some of the classic Mario tunes. And for seasoned Mario veterans like myself, the difficulty could have been cranked up a notch. But for my daughter, who's still mastering the art of platforming, the inclusion of Nabbit as an invincible character was a game-changer, allowing us to progress together and enjoy the wonder without frustration. Overall, Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a must-play for any family looking for a joyful, laughter-filled adventure. It's bursting with creativity, charm, and enough silly surprises to keep everyone entertained, from seasoned gamers to wide-eyed newcomers. So grab your controllers, gather your loved ones, and get ready to experience the wonder for yourselves!

An excellent return to form for 2D Mario! The graphics are gorgeous- the keyframes really make Mario look and feel like the early 2D platforming gems (and not like the generic art in the "New" Super Mario Bros games). Music is fantastic, although not particularly memorable, the level design and puzzles are engaging and varied, and difficulty levels/character options make this appropriate for all levels (though still fairly easy and only ~15 hours on a Main+Extra playthrough) 100% recommended for any Mario fan and casual gamer.

Mario Wonder is my favorite Mario game in a long, long time. It's very fun, colorful, and surprising. The only criticism I have is that it's too short. It should've had one more world that upped the challenge somewhere between the final world and the Special World

The game feels very different compared to older 2d mario games such as mario bros wii or new super mario bros for the ds. Its unique and every level plays differently with the wonder effects and new abilities. Some changes i did not like entirely. I think the game is very child friendly as a lot of the nee features make it play a lot easier even when youre in multiplayer. They may have made it too easy but that is not to say there arent any challenges in this game. I highly recommend this game.

If it's not fun, why bother? Super Mario Bros. Wonder is definitively the best 2D Mario game since New Super Mario Bros. for the DS, and arguably the best 2D Mario since Super Mario World. The level design is fantastic throughout the whole game. There is a lot of flexibility in how you play with the new badges. The wonder flowers are spectacular and the game is just delightful start to finish. It's not a long game, even if you 100% it, and it's not particularly difficult either, but it is FUN.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder for the Nintendo Switch is a delightful addition to the iconic franchise, offering a fresh and enchanting experience for players of all ages. The game introduces innovative level designs that seamlessly blend classic platforming with new and imaginative twists. Mario's adventure unfolds in vibrant, visually stunning landscapes, showcasing the capabilities of the Nintendo Switch. The addition of new power-ups and challenges adds a layer of excitement, keeping the gameplay both nostalgic and thrilling. The controls are responsive, and the multiplayer features provide a shared journey through the whimsical wonders of the Mushroom Kingdom. Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a testament to the timeless appeal of Mario games, delivering a magical odyssey that captivates and delights from start to finish.

Despite an initial hesitation of buying a game that is so similar to other Mario products, I must say this game is fresh and was a pleasant surprise. My wife, who is not a gamer, actually asked to play each night, resulting in us happily playing the entire game together. It is challenging at time, but not enough to take away from the fun. This is a great game to play alone, and is a great game for family members, including those who typically do not play games.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a vibrant, wildly imaginative reinvention of classic Mario platforming. The game explodes with color and personality, thanks to the Flower Kingdom’s unique setting, expressive animations, and a cast of new enemies and power-ups, including the hilarious Elephant Mario. The standout feature is the Wonder Flower, which transforms levels with unpredictable, surreal effects-one moment you’re running on ceilings, the next you’re a Goomba or caught in a musical sequence. Every stage feels fresh and surprising, keeping players on their toes.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder was a very cute and lowkey experience. It didn’t have a grand reception as a 3D Mario game, but it still held its own and proved to be a very sweet and laidback game. The Wonderflower and Badge mechanics were nice additions as well. While the story itself was cliche, the game was adorable with lots of great facial expressions backed by good music and controls. I think this was a very good return to 2D Mario games.

Its been sometime since we had a trafitional 2D Super Mario game. This game just looks and feel so good to play with all the power ups avilable, esepcially the elephant power up. Its an easy 5/5 game

One of my favorite Mario games to date. Unique stale and design to your classic Mario game!

Was looking for a great multi player game for the family. The couch co-op is perfect. If you love Mario and you like platformers, this is the game for you.

Fun game but difficult in some cases. I have yet to beat it but it’s been fun.

One of the more creative Mario's to date, welcome to Wonder. Cashing in on the movies success, you come to the land of wonder, leaving something for another movies and creating new game play and excitement. This is a great game. Don't want to give anything away but be ready because this isn't your daddy's Mario, its something totally new and fun and full of Wonder (pun intended).

If I had to summarize this game it would come down to pure joy. Everything about this game brings joy to the player. The music, art style, look, and feel are all delightful. There's so much variety here and it's a joy to experience it all. I was never looking to rush to the end just to finish it (like I do with some games). Instead I couldn't wait to see what surprises were waiting for me next. This games not just about testing your platforming abilities, but encouraging you to explore. The feeling of exploring 3D areas is applied to this iteration of a 2D Mario game. While this may not be the most challenging 2D Mario game there are some levels that will test your abilities, especially the final level. My biggest drawback of the game is that while there are plenty of badges granting you multiple abilities, I was never compelled to use more than just a handful. I expect your play style will play a favor in which you will use. I never found it necessary to deviate all that much though. Super Mario Bros Wonder is a great time and reminds me of why I play video games: joy. The amount of fun here shouldn't be missed.

Such a great game — I’m a huge fan of 2D Mario games and this one is beyond creative. Not disappointed!

First, I pre-ordered with delivery for release day. I should have just gone to the store. Arrived 2 days late as is the norm with BB online it seems. Mario Wonder is a colorful and fun game. It has elements of Rabbids thrown in with the Mario World format of level selection. I honestly believe the reason for this release is so Nintendo can say they maxed out the Switch hardware before releasing a new console. The graphics are hyper animated, sound is layer on layer of fx. There was definitely some partaking of something in the making of this game. Mario has fingers you can see clearly animated. There is always some facial feature or detail you missed each time you play. Clever puzzles and fun music throughout. Price on Mario games are getting crazy so I use my BB credits when I buy their games.

Great game for my kids! Ages range from 5-13. Any skill levels can play!

Got the game for the kids. They enjoyed all the way. After seeing it, I too got interested and played a lot. The graphics definitely are way better than the previous mario games. New additions of Dinosaur world, Yoshi are a welcome.New themes wit hgrass and water looks great. Cape was fun. Very colorful, music is great. Very soothing. Graphics has definitely jumped a league. Over all a great game.
