Topic: New Super Mario Bros. - Wii or DS

Yeah the DS one is good for long trips in the car and the Wii is a fun multiplayer game that's good for home

The first Friday after it was released. So about 5 days.
It felt great getting 100%.

I actually enjoyed the DS one, too. Was just having fun with the guys who picked it over the Wii version, especially the guy who implied it was somehow longer and more difficult.

I speedran both. Roughly 25 min. for DS, 40 for the Wii. Not at all hard, I don't see the big deal.

Speed running through any Mario game (besides 3-D ofcourse) isn't exactly all that hard or time wasting.
I find it to be very easy.

I enjoyed the DS version more. The minigames in it are entertaining, and the 2 player mode is pretty competitive. Plus, I found the DS version to be more difficult, which I liked. Not to mention, the DS version doesn't have the propeller suit, which can easily be abused to finish the Wii version faster/more easily. I also miss the Mega Mushroom in the Wii version.

So did you even get any of the gold coins or power ups or coins and stuff like that when you speedran

If your talking to me then yes. I got everything in under a week.

IMO, I preferred the Wii Version, just because it felt like an improved version of the DS game. Multiplayer, Bigger levels, Yoshi, and the fact that you're not skipping worlds after beating every other one makes the Wii game a better choice IMO.

Wii is the Wiinner.

The DS one lacked charm. And I have 3 stars on DS, and 5 sparkly stars on Wii.

Yeah in the one for DS you skip two worlds and in the one for Wii you don't skip worlds unless you unlock a cannon

Yeah I think that wii wins by alot

No, not really. When speedrunning, you don't worry about any of that stuff. But I did need to unlock a red shroom house on the DS (World 1-2 Secret Exit) to beat it in 25 min. And I got lucky, too.

The Wii version wins easily as far as gameplay goes, but I like the DS's visuals way more.

i think the ds was way 2 easy. they were graphicly very simmilar.

I finally beat everything there is to beat on the Wii version, and now have five shiny stars next to my pro file on the title stage I'm pretty pleased with my self.

I have had the game part of it beat for awhile but took some doing getting all the star coins ect ect. I know I'm kinda late to the party but it really is a great game maybe my favorite Wii game for sure top 3.
