Super Mario Brothers Wii

Anyone else thinking about getting this? I want to try it, a simultaneous old-skool SMB sounds intriguing.

I wish I still had my Wii, just for this. But I don't know that one game is really a reason to get one again.

I'm thinking of selling my Wii to my parents and buying an Xbox 360. Everybody wins!

I am thinking about picking this one up, eventually. It looks like a lot of fun and has been getting (mostly) good impressions from the gaming world so far.

And for what it's worth, 2010 appears to already be shaping up to be much kinder to the Wii then 09 has been

This is one of the very few games that I am considering purchasing at release, if I can find one. I think it's going to be good. If not, Nintendo will have a lot of explaining to do. I've wanted a new Mario platformer for some time now.

Been watching more videos about this game....I'm fully sold now. All I need to do now is convince the folks to buy this for the family Xmas Wii gift instead of the latest Guitar hero iteration

I had just about talked myself into buying this after work. Alas, I had to pay for some expensive tests today, and I will need to purchase a tank of gas. Oh well, maybe next paycheck I can come up with the testicular fortitude necessary.

Glad to see I'm not the only one.

I was *this* close to buying it Sunday, but I just couldn't do it knowing the other expenses I have coming up soon. I'm hoping someone will get it for me for Christmas, or at least my sister get it and then after she finishes with it I can play it.

So, Gamestop is running a deal where you can trade in two Wii games (From a select list), and get Super Mario Bros for $9.99.

Normally, I NEVER trade in my games, but both my brother and I own a copy of Smash Bros. (on the list), and I really prefer the gamecube version of Twilight Princess (Wii version on the list) so I may just have to do this.

Someone talk me out of/into this...
