This game is unironically good

They need to bring back that multiplayer mode and flesh it out a little more, that was the best part of the game.

Sure. But there's no reason to play it when mario world romhacks exist

>unironic

So you like the game? Why didn't you say "I like this game"

How the fuck do you opposite irony?

Going back into the levels to see where the mini mario pipes went was fun

unironically

It's good but it's outshined by pretty much every other Mario platformer in the series.

Also, the blue shell powerup sucked.

This game's multiplayer was kino except that finding someone to play it with was hard enough that I doubt anyone bothered.

>>386405646
I bet he doesn't even speedrun.

>>386405654
It had download play, meaning the other person didn't even need to have the game
And literally everyone had a DS back then

Its sequels were better

>>386405776
You misunderstand. People that could play it existed, but who would want to play some jank 2d mario multiplayer when things like smash bros and mario kart existed?

>>386403356
This. A ton of DS games had amazing multiplayer.

>Phantom Hourglass
>Spirit Tracks
>Metroid Prime: Hunters
>NSMB
>Kirby Super Star Ultra

I wish we could get more fun multiplayer games that aren't just co-op.

>>386405912
1. No portable Smash at the time
2. Mario Kart DS didn't have the greatest list of tracks, most of the retro tracks were lame
3. NSMB is one of the best selling games of all time. Obviously tons of people played the multiplayer

>>386403279
Its ok at best. I bought this at launch and after 100%ing it in the same day I was disappointed as fuck

NSMBWii though is a fantastic followup

>>386405869
Definitely not 2 or Wii U. Wii was probably the best. Wii U had the best co-op multiplayer. NSMB had the best multiplayer, the most consistently good boss design, and the music wasn't tired as fuck at that point.

>>386403279
The multiplayer was the shit

>>386406341

I would say level design reached its apex in NSMBWii and NSMBU/NSLU. Plus, they had those sweet challenges.

>>386405707
Speaking of that this is definitely the most fun NSMB game to speedrun. It just feels fucking great, something about that running sound.

>>386406341
2 is still a mystery to me. How can they manage to make so many forgettable levels? I didn't even beat the pirated DLC

>>386406640
Level design isn't just about difficulty. It's one thing to make a fun level, another to make a challenging level.

>>386406863

I unironically like 2. Yeah, I know it's a pretty obvious rehash and cash crab, but fuck me I can't resist NSMBU.

>>386406897

Yeah but Fire Bros challenge is fun. So are cashless castle crawl and castle crawl. This shit is pure unadulterated ludo

>>386407051

Sorry, meant to say can't resist NSMB.

>>386403279
It's pretty easy, but also underrated in my opinion.
Especially its castle theme:

Which got two remixes at least (Fortune Street's is amazing)

>>386403279
It's alright. Not worth $40 it was at launch.

>>386403279

Honestly it's a soulless rehash with shitty music

>>386407629
>rehash
anon you do know there was a time when nsmb was new right
how is it in any way similar to the previous 2d mario, super mario world

POST YFW YOU GOT THE MEGA MUSHROOM FOR THE FIRST TIME

>>386406341
NSMBU is the best 2D Mario since SMB3, what are you on about?

>>386407863
As you know, one sequel per console is a lot these da- HAHAHAHA, I can't. The hypocrisy revolving around NSMB hate is staggering every time. In a world of yearly sequels apparently 4 games (3 of which had clear and obvious improvements on the previous games) in 8 years was just too much.

>>386407629
I agree. It's basically the sm64 of 2d mario games.

>>386408971

>I agree. It's basically the sm64 of 2d mario games.

So, the pinnacle of 2D Mario games?
