A new Mario title that has a sly old dog

Story: Typical of old Mario titles (a good thing). Peach is kidnapped by Bowser and as always Plumber Mario has to save them.

Graphics: Bombastic! 3D Mario really looks as good as ever! The first ever game well worth doing in 3D to play. Sometimes optical illusions are hidden in the game that can be seen only with 3D effect. Here Nintendo has been really hard. Tip!

Power-ups: Once there's the finally returned Tanuki (raccoon) Detective Suit. How do I find the best power-up, because you can sail long distances through the air with him and opponents one can paint the bulb. Then the fire-suit would be there with which you can throw fireballs further than with the subsequently mentioned boomerang suit. Boomerang Suit: With it, you get a blue Koopa shell and of course the boomerang. Unfortunately, you can not go so far to cast as the fireballs. Propeller Box: benefit for me is not really much, because they can not be stowed away and they occur only in very few levels. Unbesiegbarkeitsanzug and B-Wing: When you permanently no longer comes in a level, until the gold-white Unbesiegbarkeitsblatt appears. I personally find very useful, if you really do not know how to continue. If one is still not progressing, a wing with a B appears on it. The takes one directly to the goal post. For me not really useful, because is really the "charm of the Unbreakable" away.

Music: Except in the Bowser-levels do not really atmospheric, but this is not a big disadvantage for me. Nevertheless, the music is great and really well thought fit to Mario.

Gameplay: Here comes through the Circle Pad much precision to the point. Most buttons combinations for tricks bring nothing really. However, a great plus for some who would like to perform with Mario mad stunts. The jumping and hovering with the Tanuki suit is really fun and helps one in almost all levels.

Level Structure: The levels are very colorful, beautiful and lovingly decorated. Some levels are structured by topic. For example, the ghost level or the familiar final Bowser boss level. Just finding all Sterntalern makes me sometimes create. They are very well hidden. Something too light, the whole play through (I am in the world 8, but now needs to collect 100 Sterntaler to unlock the next level Bowser :-)

Conclusion: A really cool game and a completely insane Mario who looks great once again and it has a sly old dog. The best ever game for the 3DS!

PS I'm looking forward already to Mario Kart. 7
