It’s a 10/10 game. Nothing else like it, it’s an absolute crime we have never gotten a new adventure from the franchise. Music and atmosphere is incredible! Graphically amazing for the time too.
I’ll never forget the moment when me and my brother figured out that we had to jump through the web in the middle of the floor. Incredible feeling. I was about 10 at the time.
I still play mine now and again. I’ve currently been playing sonic boom which I found out isn’t actually as bad as people made out to be. Typical of most modern sonic games in my opinion. 🤷🏻♂️ it’s weird going back to it though it’s like looking at the switch library of games, it’s bonkers how Nintendo managed to sell the same games again.
I’ve actually stopped playing it. It’s way too slow to get going for someone that’s been playing Mario games for 30 years. I’ll go back to it likely but I’m certainly not in love with it. Yet.
Probably get rid of it. It’s not my favourite tbh. I feel let down by the stupid joycons. I really do hope this switch 2 is backwards compatible and has a much better controller attached.
Drift has never effected me but just the joy cons in general are just not good enough. Far too small and uncomfortable and it’s criminal not to have a d pad! Also hd rumble…….. what a waste of time! Give me big fat Xbox s controller rumble any day.
@NinjaNicky yeah I know some people will think 10. It’s just an opinion after all. But when I think about how awesome super Mario world was and still is I think wonder doesn’t quite get there. I wanted to be blown away from the start like world did back in the day but the first couple of worlds haven’t done that for me. I mean the music isn’t even grabbing my attention like those catchy super Mario world themes did. Oh well maybe I’m just getting old 😝
@ear_wig I’m finding the sound effects really annoying. Jump sound boing is grating on me like it’s never done before in any other Mario game. It’s a fantastic game but to say 10/10 perfect I just can’t agree with that.
I’m having more fun with it than Mario wonder but it’s early days. I would question the art design in sonic though as I’m not sure who it’s aimed at. What I mean is us old fans prefer sonic mania for example but kids that have watched the new films would maybe expect something closer to that (a more cooler edgy art style) 🤷🏻♂️ but what do I know
I’m actually playing sonic &all stars racing at the moment on my WiiU. It’s weird I turned it on after not touching it for a while and I’m looking at tropical freeze, captain toad etc thinking these games are so old now how the hell did Nintendo manage to sell them again as if they were new 🤯

So the seedy tactics have worked. Way to ruin something special with greed. I honestly think the games industry is in decline.

@Mauzuri it’s literally just came out! I got it from eBay brand new for £35 which I thought was a bargain
Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder Also Had A Strong Start In The US

@LikelySatan exactly
Re: Talking Point: If 'Switch 2' Is Backwards Compatible, What Will You Do With Your Switch?
@LikelySatan if you can find me better joy cons I will. All third party options are junk.
Re: Talking Point: If 'Switch 2' Is Backwards Compatible, What Will You Do With Your Switch?
Probably get rid of it. It’s not my favourite tbh. I feel let down by the stupid joycons. I really do hope this switch 2 is backwards compatible and has a much better controller attached.

I must say I’m enjoying sonic more.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Super Mario Bros. Wonder?
How anyone can say 10/10 outstanding is beyond me. It’s great but nothing amazing.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 21st)
Anyone else find the jump noise (boing) in Mario wonder to be really annoying? It’s annoying me 😆
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Sonic Superstars?
@Quiet2down I’m probably using the wrong words. A bit more attitude and less cute maybe.

Re: Review: Sonic Superstars - A Fine, Authentic-Feeling Return That Runs Great On Switch
Frontiers is so bad on switch I wasn’t going to risk getting the switch version over the pc or Xbox I have.
