Good 2D Mario game, the wonders are a nice touch, but a bit disappointing that they get repeated quite a bit. The badge system is neat, but as mentioned by a lot of reviews, it’s kind of pointless because they can’t build the levels around the badges (since you can swap at any time). The levels that do use the badges are fantastic, but there aren’t enough of them, imo.

All told, I’m sure this will be a great intro to Mario game for a new generation (I think my kids will love it), but I’m mainly left looking forward to the next 3D Mario.
