Attention Games and Gadget Lovers: New Super Mario For The Wii!!! No comments yet

New Super Mario Brothers

That’s right!!! Dust off those original Nes systems and Mario cartridges and get ready for the revival of Super Mario Brothers. On November 15, 2009 Nintendo will be releasing New Super Mario Brothers for Nintendo Wii. This is the perfect game to add to that holiday wish list for all Wii console owners or those who are planning on purchasing one soon. New Super Mario Brothers will be taking aspects from the previous versions and updating it to work with the Nintendo Wii and its interactive gaming platform. The game will employ the same side scrolling game play from the original Mario series and will add new features such as a new propeller suit which will work specifically with Wii’s motion-sensing remote. The game allows you to play with up to four people at a time, and will bring back such popular characters as Luigi, Toad, Yoshi, and even those annoying Koopalings.

This game has tons of buzz surrounding it, and has been predicted to the best selling game of the holiday season. At the present moment there will be no accessories or special gadgets made specifically for the game, but they could be released in the future. No matter if you have been a lifetime long Mario gamer (such as myself) or a new Wii console owner, this is a great game that needs to be added to your wish list. Preorder your copy of New Super Mario brothers at either Target or BestBuy.
