Super Mario Bros. Wonder Reviews
For a franchise that’s been around for nearly 40 years, Super Mario Bros. still has a number of new tricks up its sleeve, and even after beating every single level, I keep finding new pockets of joy and excitement at every turn. I don’t know precisely where I’d rank Super Mario Bros. Wonder in comparison to the older titles, but I can say for sure it’s one of the best 2D platformers I’ve played in a long time, and without a doubt a worthy contender for the top five of 2D Mario games. It convinced me there’s still so much more Nintendo can accomplish with its greatest mascot.
Super Mario Wonder successfully elevated the already high standard of the side-scrolling platformer even further. The stage transformations brought by the Wonder Flowers are unpredictable, and consistently bring a smile to the player's face.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is pure, unadulterated fun and one of the best games on Nintendo Switch - a true wonder of game design that lives up to its name.
Those are minor missteps, though, in an otherwise fantastic release. Super Mario Bros. Wonder is easily the most interesting a 2D Mario title has been since the 90s, and any fan of platformers absolutely needs to play this game. The Switch has had a fantastic year for first-party releases, but Super Mario Bros. Wonder stands alongside the very best of them.
All in all, Super Mario Bros. Wonder is indeed a great game, as it gets its name. Nintendo has shown us how different the 2D Mario game can be, which it has shown many times. With the new features added, the Wonder hustle and bustle, and the smooth co-op system, it has been created that both young and old players will enjoy. Every game lover should definitely experience this unique adventure.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a title that will end up being an essential part of the Nintendo Switch’s library, and for great reason. It is a game that will stand as a shining mark in the gaming industry of what is possible. Mario Wonder may not be an absolutely perfect game, but it gets as close as possible by remaining the fun and cozy game throughout its run time.
Super Mario Wonder is a modern masterpiece for the Switch, with imaginative game design that is a joy to experience.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder is easily the best new 2D Mario in a very long time, and it’s really fighting for my number one or two spot. Recency bias has it going head to head with older titles, but that’s the great part: you don’t have to decide. Each game brings something to the table, and Wonder’s new everything – enemies, power ups, level design – keeps it brimming with potential all the way to the very end.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder is another excellent Nintendo Switch title that shows the company is still able to come up with brilliant new ideas. I loved every single hours spent in this new 2D Mario world and I hope there's more content coming in the near futur. There's no reason to hesitate, this is one of the best games of the console.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is arguably the best 2D platformer from Nintendo. Its range in difficulty makes it a game everyone can enjoy, especially with invincible characters like Yoshi and Nabbit. The co-op makes for a hilarious and fun family game night. Completionists and challenge runners are also in for a treat, as Mario Wonder is bursting at the seams with content. Wonder feels like the start of a new generation of Super Mario. We are on the precipice looking out at the exciting Mario games on the horizon, and if Mario Wonder is the first step, we are in for quite the journey.
Much could be written about the particularities of this badge or any idea affects on a level, but nothing like experimenting and discovering how Super Mario Bros. Wonder, starting from the oldest model in the series, is at the same time a wellspring of ideas, mechanics and challenges in constant rotation. It's simple and accessible but at the same time challenging and packed with secret areas, hard-to-get collectibles and arduous challenges that even the most well-versed in the series can feel like the game bites. And in all of this there is fun and the somewhat hallucinated feeling of yet another ingenious level. It's a game that flourishes above all in ideas and mechanics, proving that the 2D segment of the Super Mario series is capable of standing shoulder to shoulder with the 3D references of the series.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is definitely a timeless classic that will survive the test of time.
Super Mario Bros Wonder certainly dares to be different with its aesthetically pleasing environments and unconventional Wonder Effects in stages.
Detailed visual and audio elements, exceptional accessibility, and the intriguing Wonder Flower concept make Super Mario Bros. Wonder one of the best in the series.
Nintendo has done it again, it has managed to innovate itself and bring us Super Mario Wonder, a Super Mario that can boast of being among the first in its series, even at the level of the legendary Super Mario World and Super Mario Bros 3. Super Mario Wonder is a title that every fan of Nintendo or the mustachioed plumber should have in their game library, an adventure that will not leave anyone indifferent and that overflows with originality, charm and, above all, a lot of fun, which we can enjoy alone, lightly accompanied. thanks to its online mode or in company with its local multiplayer mode for up to 4 players, with the most charismatic characters (and immortal for the little ones in the house or the inexperienced).

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is built on an abundance of whimsical surprises, and the delight that each new one brings will keep you smiling from beginning to end. It’s a significant, impeccably refined creative leap that resoundingly demonstrates that there is still a lot that can be done to a near 40-year-old idea, and one that continues to spark a fulfilling sense of newfound joy through play.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder ultimately offers a delightful and innovative refinement of the genre. If you’re looking to explore the stages and find every hidden secret, it may be best to go solo, but even with a friend or three, you’re going to have a good time.
Don't expect a huge leap in innovation and surprises, but a boatload of fun for both your friends and family. This Mario entry is basically comfort food that barely sates, but doesn't enthrall, inspire, or enervate.
The more I played Super Mario Bros Wonder, the more I fell in love with its whimsicality and endless redefinition of what Mario can be. It’s a glorious reimagining of Nintendo’s most iconic franchise. It takes the ingenuity and innovation that made Mario’s 3D escapades some of gaming’s greatest achievements and finally introduces them into the side-scrolling world. Wonder is everything I wanted it to be, and might be the most inventive 2D platformer Nintendo has ever made.
