It's-A beautifully charming and playful game, with gentle difficulty curve and plenty of mechanics to ease the frustration characteristic of some of these 2D Mario games. I'm sure that some hardcore fans will miss the challenge of older games but it hits the sweet spot for me. I'll be honest, it's not as groundbreaking as it sounded when it first got released, but it's so polished you can see your reflection in it. I hope that they treats their workers well because I don't know that anyone does the art of game development like Nintendo.
