Gameplay:
This has got to be one of the most fun Mario games to play ever, for starters, it's not like on Mario 64 or Sunshine when you didn't know whether you could make that jump or not, and you aren't long jumping every jump just in case you can't. You also move a lot faster and you feel like you are actually controlling Mario because of how smooth the movement is. Also the fact that there are power ups in this one is a major bonus, although it is annoying when some of them (like the fire flower which is a massive let down) have a timer. The control on these are perfect too. Kicking Bowser's ass never felt so great
Controls:
There isn't much to say about the controls, except they are amazingly well done. Also on the spherical levels, when you jump you don't really move that much so you do end up long jumping on the spheres, but I guess that this idea is pretty new, and if they have this sort of stuff in the next Mario game, then it will probably improve.
Extras and Unlockables:
There is only one thing to unlock in this game and it is
Online Play:
There is none, but it would be pretty cool to have 2 player Online Co-op.
Overall:
Amazing game, it's must have for the Wii. If you don't have it I strongly recommend you get it.
