Super Mario Bros. Wonder - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park Reviews
It's certainly a successful experiment, but the speed with which all the content is consumed makes this update very difficult to recommend to all players.

This review might sound flat on the game, but that’s only because the “DLC” that’s been added to the Switch 2 upgrade is difficult to be quite so enthusiastic about. Still, if this is your first time with Super Mario Bros. Wonder, it’s adding more to an already brilliant package, and if you already have the game, the “DLC” is only $20, which is more than reasonable as an excuse to dust it off for another whirl.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park is an overall fun package for those who want additional challenges and multiplayer features. There's a surprising amount to see and do, alongside the existing campaign - especially the solo training stages. It is a shame, though, that the new minigame portion is strictly limited to multiplayer, with a lack of bots or public online lobbies. For newcomers and existing players, it might well be worth experiencing the standard Super Mario Bros. Wonder release first and consider upgrading only if you crave a second helping.
These Nintendo Switch 2 Editions have all been very impressive but Super Mario Bros. Wonder - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park is the most jam-packed one to date, especially with its super-imaginative multiplayer challenges and epic Koopaling encounters. 💐
Super Mario Bros. Wonder (NS2) + Meetup in Bellabel Park delivers exactly what fans expect from an expansion: meaningful new content that enhances the core experience while keeping the original magic intact. The additions feel fresh and playful, elevating the base game to a new level without losing its charm. It’s a package that solidifies Wonder’s place as one of the standout titles on Switch 2.

Ultimately, Super Mario Bros. Wonder – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park is much more than just a simple re-release: it’s an enriched, generous, and intelligently designed version that enhances the experience in every way. With new content, multiplayer additions, accessibility options, and technical improvements, Nintendo has successfully breathed new life into an already excellent game. In my opinion, this is quite simply the best title to have received the “Nintendo Switch 2 Edition” treatment so far, and a must-have for both new players and those looking to dive back into the Kingdom of Flowers.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder remains a standout platformer. The Nintendo Switch 2 Edition adds an excellent technical boost, a enjoyable selection of multiplayer pastimes, and some genuinely demanding new challenges. It's more remix than reinvention, but the core brilliance remains.
It's still hard to find anything bad to say about the game itself. Of course, re-releasing a title that already worked perfectly fine in first place is somewhat pointless. On the other hand, if the great source material gets a new audience this way, so be it. Especially first-time platforming fans, go shopping!

The Switch 2 version isn’t just an upgrade with better-looking graphics; it is packed with loads of new content. With a wide range of offline and online multiplayer modes to work together or against each other, fan favourite characters Rosalina and Luma being added to the playable roster, and all seven Koopalings returning with their own unique boss battles, there is so much to do and enjoy on top of the base game.
It’s an almost perfect platformer, and the new version is only better. Is the 80 PLN upgrade worth it? I think so. An essential title for every Switch 2 owner and a truly wonderful game.

It's truly a complete package that naturally and enjoyably enhances the original game, and is possibly the best Switch 2 Edition released to date.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder + Meetup in Bellabel Park is a grand upgrade to Super Mario Bros. Wonder, thanks to its noticeable visual improvements and an abundance of varied new content. Whilst the visual upgrade should probably have been a separate and free update, the actual new stages and characters are at least worth the price of admission, especially if you’ve yet to play Wonder for the first time.
More than two years after its first release, Super Mario Bros. Wonder continues to impress with its freshness and irresistible pace. Meetup in Bellabel Park, while being a limited-scope expansion heavily focused on multiplayer, still adds moments of fun without upsetting the game’s balance. Overall, it remains an extraordinary experience: a masterfully crafted platformer that excites and entertains just as much today as it did two years ago, and is destined to remain a benchmark for fans of the genre.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park does a good job of showing the value of upgrading to the Switch 2 edition of this game. With a good amount of new multiplayer-focused content, you can get some extra enjoyment out of Super Mario Bros. Wonder. I wouldn’t go out of my way to buy it if you didn’t have friends or family to play it with, unless you really want to play as Rosalina, but this is one of the few Switch 2 editions that offers a good amount of value and is worth the cost if you already have the base edition of the game.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder + Meetup in Bellabel Park is an outstanding 2D Mario game, and the new multiplayer content is a blast.

All in all, Meetup in Bellabel Park is an entertaining addition to what was an already excellent adventure. While it’s not the New Super Luigi U-sized expansion many were likely hoping, it manages to deliver just enough meat to chew on both for platforming challenge-seekers and group-based shenanigans.
I still feel Super Mario Bros Wonder - Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park is a 9 out of 10 game, but the upgrade is really geared toward the multiplayer experience. Switch 2 version reviewed. Review copy provided by company for testing purposes.
Meetup in Bellabel Park offers a chance to get a bit more out of the masterpiece that is Super Mario Bros. Wonder, with a stronger emphasis on family play and hanging out with friends.
