Rediscover legendary 2D gameplay loved by millions

Fun, simple controls—just like classic Mario games

Developers at Nintendo have dreamed of creating a simultaneous
multiplayer Super Mario Bros.™ game for decades. The Wii console
finally makes that dream come true for everyone. Now players can
navigate the side-scrolling worlds alone as before or invite up to three
others to join them at the same time on the same level at any point in
the game for competitive and cooperative multiplayer fun. With the
multiplayer mode, the newest installment of the most popular video game
franchise is designed to bring yet another type of family entertainment
into living rooms and engage groups of friends in fast-paced Super
Mario Bros. fun.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii offers a combination of cooperation
and competition. Players can pick each other up to save them from
danger or toss them into it.

Mario™, Luigi™ and two Toads are all playable characters, while many
others from the Mushroom Kingdom make appearances throughout the game.
Players can even ride different Yoshi characters and use their tongues
to swallow enemies, items and even balls of fire.

In some areas, players use the motion abilities of the Wii Remote™
controller. The first player to reach a seesaw might make it tilt to
help his or her character reach a higher platform – or might make it
tilt incorrectly just to mess with other players.

New items include the propeller suit, which will shoot players high
into the sky with just a shake of the Wii Remote, and Mario’s new
ability to transform into Penguin Mario.

At the end of each stage during the coin battle multiplayer mode,
players are ranked based on the number of coins they have collected.
