Super Mario Bros. Wonder launches on the Nintendo Switch on October 20th, and the side-scrolling game evokes classics like Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World, while adding a fresh twist.
When a Super Mario game gets really good, you can’t help but move around in your seat. I find myself leaning into jumps as if it’ll give me an advantage and ducking my head down to avoid flying enemies. Even after a few decades of playing these games, it’s an instinct I can’t seem to avoid — and I was never sitting still while playing Super Mario Bros. Wonder on the Nintendo Switch.
If that’s all Wonder was, it would still be a brilliant, modern refresh of the classic formula on par with the underappreciated New Super Mario Bros. U. But the designers at Nintendo have gone a step further. The headline feature of the game is something called a Wonder Flower, which is basically a temporary acid trip. There’s a flower in most levels — some hidden, some very obvious — and grabbing it will dramatically change things in completely unpredictable ways.
