Nintendo Wii Review: Super Paper Mario - Page 3

Super Paper Mario is a bit short, as the game can be fully completed in about 20 hours. But there’s plenty to do in that time, and any chapter that has been beaten can be gone back to and played through again. Plus, there’s always the daunting Pit of 100 Trials to try and make your way through, which is not required to beat the game.

The Legend of Zelda: Twlight Princess’ run as the single must-have Wii game has come to an end. Super Paper Mario is an enjoyable game, especially for Mario fans looking for something a bit more old-school, like New Super Mario Bros. was on the DS. Super Paper Mario successfully blends 2-D platforming with the best elements from the Paper Mario series to create a game that’s both easy to pick up and play and an absolute blast.

Super Paper Mario is rated E (Everyone) by the ESRB for Comic Mischief and Mild Cartoon Violence.

    I've played this for around an hour now and this is, as of now, one of the best games I've ever played. Unless something is amiss late in the game, I see no reason why it won't stay that way. The 2-D/3-D switching is brilliant.

    I just beat the game last night. This is a pretty good game, and is worth a play. It's about just as good as the past Paper Mario games. The ability to "Flip" is an excellent add to the game.
