OH MY GOD *NEW* SUPER MARIO BROS WII

Sooooo awesome.


So me and my friend mark were jamming. And then, this commercial comes on.


"SUPER MARIO BROS WII! GET IT NOW!"


We got way toooo excited. Called up the local gamestop all,

"DO YOU HAVE THIS. IS IT THERE."

"Yes sir, it is in stock."

"WE'LL BE OVER IN A SECOND"

and so we were.

I walk in the store.

"WHERE IS IT"

and they ring it up immediately. My voice is pretty distinguished.



And then we played it.


Best game EVER.




Jesus seriously.


So awesome.

This is the thread to talk about it.

You ever try and draw Falcor as a giant dong? No? It just ends up looking like a long cyclops.

    There's some guy on the TV adverts for this in the UK. I don't know if he is supposed to be someone famous or what. He's all, "I loved the Super Mario on the Nintendo Sega Drive and it was great on the DS Boy but on the Sony Wii it is just...MAAAAAN!" or some shit.

    And I find myself wondering why the fuck I should care about this guy and his mundane experiences with Mario over the course of his life.

    haha that and there are like 5 people in a 20 mile radius living in Alaska. I'm pretty sure they knew you were the only caller they received that day.

    I don't have a Wii, and the number of friends who haven't sold theirs is dwindling... I hope I get a chance to play this at some point!

    Look, I think maybe someone was in your living room with a video camera while you ranted about every time you ever played a mario game and now that video has made it onto national TV in the UK.

    You know what is better than New Super Mario Bros. Wii?

    Assassin's Creed II

    I'm not sure if this is true or not but it's still a pretty excellent game with a much better title

    Also I don't have a Wii or I'd be all over this just to fight the Koopa Kids again.

    I want this so bad.

    But I'm waiting till Christmas. Also, I'm pretty sure that they finally released a new remote color, so I'll be asking for that too. I've heard the multiplayer is Smash-levels of fun.

    Super Mario World is my favorite game ever, so this is kind of a big deal.

    I am weary of ACII because Mike and Jerry said they enjoyed the first.

    Also, I first read the title as "*NEW* SUPER MARIO BROS. WWII" and was imagining Bowser all dolled up in Nazi gear and goombas in stormtrooper helmets.

    weary = tired

    wary = cautious

    ACII looks like fun but I'm always hesitant to buy action/adventure games. I tend to play them once and then they sit there on my shelf. Mario on the other hand looks like a lot of fun, especially the multiplayer, and you can always pop a Mario game in a run through a couple of levels.

    I have only started playing AC1 and was always curious why it was cheaper than most platinum games.

    Counter is definitely the best option for anything.

    That said I'm going to play the rest of the game being creative and see if that makes it better.

    It makes perfect sense, the soldiers would expect it after all so best not to teach your assassins to swim so they can't screw up accidentally.

    I was going to say online multiplayer wouldn't work but I remembered nintendo usually doesn't allow random matchmaking.

    If they did you'd constantly get the guy who plays through the first quarter of the level then drops, forcing the rest of you out of the game. Just like castle crashers. Damn the online for that sucked bad.

    Oh yeah, not saying that's how it should be solved, in fact it's not even a viable solution. It works yes but it shouldn't be needed.

    It's like having to call your friends while you play a MMORPG with them because the devs didn't want to put the time and energy into handling the potential asshat or two.

    so i've only played this with two and three people so far

    but i feel like i would probably kill myself from frustration if i had to do 4 player

    is it just me or is this game really really fun and then really really fucking irritating at the same time?

    Battles must have taken you for-fucking-ever if you were just waiting for dudes to attack you so you could counter. The game had a pretty decent battle system outside of the counters, though admittedly they were just way overpowered. I like the idea that the deadlier the weapon, the stricter the counter timing however.

    Anyways, AC2 rules so far. AC1 was a game I loved despite its numerous flaws. AC2 is a game I love that just really feels like a damn good game so far.

    To suggest AC1's battle system was anything beyond simplistic is retarded. It would have been "decent" had the game been released 5 or 6 years ago.
