Definitely one of the best 2d platformers to come out in a while, and definitely the best 2d mario platformer to come out in a WHILE. Wonder flowers and 10 star coins were really fun to find, and while i felt that they could have added even 1 or 2 more power ups, the amount we got were interesting and fun to play around with, for the most part at least (bubble flower is kinda doo doo imo). The only real negatives aside from that is that the game is kinda short (only 6 worlds one midlevel area and the bowser stages) and that this game is WAY more fun in a coop environment which i couldnt experience for the second half of the game. Overall great game to come out this year, definitely earned a goty nomination and am very excited to see the direction 2d mario platformers will go in, and 2d platformers in general, from this game.
