I LOVE this game! Its pure, silly princess saving fun. Its challenging enough that you lose a life every once in a while, but you don't get frustrated and turn it off. I'm a mom so I don't have a lot of time for super immersive games, so this platformer is right up my alley. The controls are intuitive, which is no small feat in this intergalactic adventure. Mario goes planet to planet and you never quite know which way is going to be up, or whether you will be able to walk off of the edges that would normally kill you to literally walk around the planet.
I suggest this game to anyone who has kids, (its fun to take turns trying to pass a level.) I also suggest it to anyone wanting to recapture a bit of their inner Nintendo nerd. We all had Super Mario Bros. when we were kids, didn't we??
