(((I))) do

It should've been a Wario game

based
decent but lazy effort where the only redeeming thing of this new title was the wii era graphics on a handheld. everything had been done before twice.

They thought that throwing a million coins around everywhere was an excuse not to bother with actually designing the levels.

- Unimpressive Level Design
- Visually inferior to the previous game
- Irrelevant Gimmick that doesn't actually work well with the rest of the game and feels tacked on
- Failure to introduce a new power-up
- Sets itself up for a "only in this for the money" joke
- is NEW super mario bros. 2, a contradictory title to say the least not only the fact the gameplay is no longer new but it's not even different from the old
- Reuses bosses from the previous game and doesn't get the excuse that it's been 10-15 years since their last appearance
- Boring Characters
- Boring Bosses
- Boring Power-Ups
- Doesn't introduce any interesting new enemies, all the "New" enemies are just undead, larger/smaller or golden variants of other enemies with the exception of Icy Spiked Balls which are just that, Spiked Balls that are Icy.

>New Super Mario Bros. 2
>not actually based on Super Mario Bros. 2

The gold flower is pretty fun tbqh. Probably one of the most rewarding to use.

To be fair, it had a lot in similar with JP Super Mario Bros. 2, both were iterations on the previous game with minimal actual changes and did nothing significant for the franchise the other games didn't do significantly better.

Of course you're referring to NA Super Mario Bros. 2 which is one of the most creative 2D Mario Games to date and completely shits over NSMB2 in sheer creativity from its predecessor.

Reminder.

Boohemoth is based. Fuck you.

its not terrible but the money gimmick was kinda tacked on and not thought through.

shouldve probably used wario and given you an actual reason to collect the cash. just showering you with money and leaving it at that is pointless and dumb.

I actually enjoyed this new soup the most. Coin rush was a really fun score attack mode

>NEW super mario bros.
You're a fucking imbecile if you think "New" was a one time only thing used for a single game - NSMB is a new franchise, named that, to differentiate it from the original one.

It came out before the Wii U, let alone the Switch.

This. Literally what the fuck is fun about lazily littering hundreds of coins in a level and then giving them to you for basically nothing? How the fuck is that supposed to be a fun gimmick or design?
Was there really anyone who said LOT OF COINS WOOOOOOOOOOOO BEST GAME EVER

That excuses it?
Why not call it Super Mario Bros. 5, 6, 7 and 8 or give each game subtitles that fit with them, NSMB2 could be called Super Mario Bros. Gold for example.

But it wasn't, and it was a sequel to a previous NSMB game, was a part of the main series, so NSMB2 works - if anything, you should be mad at Wii and Wii U ones not being 3 and 4 or whatever.

> I should be mad that Wii isn't called NSMB3
Wii was the second game you dilapidated housewreck, fuck me you're dumb.
