New Super Mario Brothers boasts vast intense 2D worlds inspired by those from the classic Mario adventures, but mixed with beautifully rendered 3D characters which almost appear to jump out of the screen. Each world has a different theme and features multiple levels, which must be completed before advancing to the following one. Players must also master each world’s mini fortress and defeat a boss character before they can progress onto the next world. Only after overcoming all of the bosses will a character be prepared to take on the ultimate challenge of Bowser himself.

The Mario brothers have a few new tricks up their sleeves since their last side-scrolling adventure, using a few all-new abilities to help them through this newest escapade. In addition to the classic moves, they can add a bounce to their step with 3 new jumps. To reach high ledges they can execute a hop-step-and-jump or bounce off a nearby wall thanks to the handy wall jump ability. Our heroes can even get a small height boost by bouncing off the heads of handily placed foes.

During the course of a level, our heroes can use a small bit of artificial stimulation to really tip the balance in their favour. Some of the most popular power-ups from classic Mario return, allowing players to use Mushrooms to grow, Fireflowers to fry their enemies and the elusive Starman to become invincible. Even so, the fun doesn’t end there, with a host of completely new power-ups available including a mushroom that makes the player as large as the screen and one that can shrink them to the size of a mouse!

All of this fun is too good not to share. Thanks to a host of multiplayer choices players can enjoy the adventures with up to 4 players. 2 players can fight it out wirelessly as they contend to accumulate stars on specially designed stages. Up to 4 players can also participate in a selection of touch-screen mini-games with only one game cartridge thanks to DS Download Play.

Other interesting additions include the power to Free Play with vehicles, cool new character-specific attacks and manoeuvers, playable mini-kit vehicles, an optional advanced mode for veteran players and more.
