How's everybody like this game? I bought it the other day and think it's a pretty cool update to the old fashioned Mario. Some levels seem to be homages of ones from the first SMB and the switching between upper and lower screens when you use certain warp pipes is cool (as is the ability to tap a stored power-up and get it on the top screen) The mini and mega mushrooms are fun, nothing beats rampaging through a level as a 30 foot Mario, sending Goombas flying in your wake, and though he dies constantly in this form, Mini-Mario is frickin' hilarious. It's a bit frustrating for me because I'm forever sending Mario hurtling to his death by miscalculating jumps, but still highly enjoyable.

It's a great game, but I wish they had found a way to incorporate some of the older power-ups into the game. Mario can't fly... what the hell is that?

Yeah, the Racoon suit or the wing cap would be nice additions. I kinda wish that it was like 3 in the way that you could save a few power-ups in your inventory instead of just one.

Yeah! I have it, and I enjoy it a lot. I have beat the game once, but I'm still looking for some overlooked Star Coins.
Anyway, my only problem with this game, however, is the fact that Yoshi isn't in it. I love Yoshi way too much though.

Bought it, loved it, beat all the stages, realized there was nothing else to do, pawned it off with a few other games.
Now I just need to wait for my store to get some more copies of Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow.

You know, there's another DS Castlevania coming out with two playable characters (co-operatively) coming out soon.

It's fun, but sometimes gets repetitive and old.
