I’ve been writing about video games, television and movies for Forbes for over 10 years, and you may have seen my reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. I cover all manner of console and PC games, but if it’s about looting or shooting, I’m definitely there. If I’m watching something, it’s usually science fiction, horror or superheroic.
Not to be outdone by Sony’s Spider-Man 2 getting a 91 metascore just two days ago, Nintendo’s Super Mario Bros. Wonder has arrived withBut amazingly, because this is 2023, and one of the single best years for gaming…ever, this is not even the top-scoring game of the year. Here’s the breakdown of the score list that carves out remasters or games with just a couple reviews.
What are critics saying about Wonder here? As you might expect there are loads and loads of 10/10s for Nintendo’s newest Mario offering. Some of those include:– “Inventive and full of heart, with a tight design and striking presentation, Super Mario Bros. Wonder is undoubtedly the plumber’s most memorable 2D outing since the 1990s.”“Move over Elephant Mario, the true star of Super Mario Bros.
So, rather unshockingly, it’s another smash hit for Nintendo and will sell loads of copies with the Switch’s ever-expanding, enormous install base. Is this it? Is this the last super-game with scores this high releasing in 2023? A month and a half to go.
