New Super Mario Bros. U - review
A portion of an ArsTechnica review...
The Good
Excellent, inventive level design, reminiscent of the 2D Mario classics
Plenty of hidden secrets to keep you busy
Game isn't afraid to ramp up the challenge as it progresses
Sharp, colorful high-definition graphics
Boost mode is surprisingly fun and shows off the Wii U GamePad
The Bad
The flying squirrel suit is kind of lame
Playing with three or four characters on-screen gets crowded
The Ugly
Why is Bowser Jr. still around now that the Koopa Kids have returned?
