And the Fandom Rejoiced (Sugar Wiki)/Video Games/New Super Mario Bros. Wii

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Back in the day New Super Mario Bros. was first released, it was an ambitious, yet successful attempt at a George Lucas Throwback to old-school Super Mario Bros. titles. The fact there would be a sequel was only the first in a long line of rejoice-inducing elements that come back for this series and its modern take on classic Mario side-scrollers.


  • NSMBW marks the return of the Koopalings to official 2-D Mario platformers (in between this game and Super Mario World, they were in Hotel Mario and Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga and were going to be in Super Princess Peach). Also, this marks the first time they appeared alongside their younger brother Bowser Jr., and many people were happy for that, too.
  • Not to mention, Yoshi, Kamek, the difficulty... hell, there was practically a new one every time a new preview went up.
