A very pleasant surprise, the "new" series has been nothing but mid, but this one is actually pretty fun! Love the Wonder Flower gimmicks, and has a cool final badge challenge level that by far took the most lives out of my Peach. One drawback that makes me not give this game a higher score is that every boss was boring, it was all Bowser Jr with two little arena gimmicks, but it was essentially the same as always, just stomp Bowser Jr, wait for him to come out of the shell and repeat, very disappointed in that regard.
