Transcript of Featured Review

Hi, this is the New Super Mario Brothers Game that was released earlier this summer for Nintendo DS and if you really want to look at a good review you can go to GameTrailers.com. They have really good step by step walk through to look at all the major highlights of the game. But my experience personally was, -- it was, -- it felt a little bit too simple without getting into you know the wide range or anything that's in the game. A lot of the new power ups have been hyped above the 3D Graphics, aspects and things were hyped, but I mean the game was very fun to play and it, it was very easy to get right back into it but at times it just felt very simple. And obviously the story was just, it almost seemed like a joke, like Nintendo was kind of making fun of itself going, "Hey lets put Mario in a another game where he's trying to save the princess and Bowser keeps stealing her away and running the castles". Ok how, you know is this 1986, you know. But some of the mini games are fun. They kind of lose their novelty after a while and unless you're just a die hard Mario fan, this probably isn't something that you need to have in your collection.
