I am not passionate about this game whatsoever but I thought it was super good anyway. what's wrong with me
2004
the controls were so bad that they nearly made me cry at multiple intervals
2002
to this day I have no clue whether or not I actually like this game
1996
y'know, it's not every day I decide to try out an old game that I have no nostalgia for and somehow still feel that sense of magic that I'm sure people who played it back in the day felt
I don't even have anything funny to say about this one. super fun and charming banger

new soup u is basically new soup wii if the people who made new soup wii gave a shit
new soup luigi is honest to god the best 2D mario game

why does this have some of the best level designs I've ever seen in a 2D mario game
it's very in character for 2D mario to pump out something that's actually super good then immediately ruin it by taking inspiration from some of my least favorite places in the franchise
it's still not mind blowing but it's kinda insane how much of a glowup this is compared to what we got in the good old days and how well it still holds up in general
2D mario is at it's best when it's being the least 2D mario possible
1990
well, the levels have an incentive to engage with them now, so it's an improvement over what came before
probably the most creative 2D mario game and it's on the fucking gameboy. surely there was a mistake of some sort, right
1989

gonna try to sneak in more than two sentences for this one because holy shit
how do you make a game that's simultaneously overbloated and not bloated enough at the same time. each level only has the most bare minimum requirements to be classified as a full level. and 95% of them only last a good 30 seconds mind you, so there's no time for them to develop and no time to get invested in any of them. and there are a good 60+ of these barebones levels. have fun
this is everything I don't like about 2D mario summed up in one game

I swear nearly every single level in this game is exactly the same
basically take the first game and make it have some semblance of challenge and that's what you've got here
