New Super Mario Bros (Wii): Prima Official Game Guide (Prima Official Game Guides),   ISBN:9780307465924

Customer Rating: 

With all the hype around New Super Mario Brothers Wii for the Nintendo Wii, there is so much excitement awaiting in the wings to see the delightful Plumber from Nintendo deliver in a fun & loving adventure. But, where there is a new Mario game, there is also a new strategy guide awaiting for Mario fans to help them along the way. The new startegy guide for New Super Mario Brother Wii, is mostly a helpful guide that clearly displays the maps for all of the challenging levels throughout the Mushroom kingdom, and gives you good tidbits on how to defeat Bowser and his alliances from his Koopa Kids like Roy and Ludwig, to unlocking new paths to helping you accumulate Star Coins throught each level. My one big gripe is that I wish the guide could've brought up a little more detail on how some of the controls for the game work, as was in the past with previous strategy guides on Mario games. While it is sad that Nintendo has made the decision to stop making strategy guides of their own, and letting Prima handle them, what they made to help you out in New Super Mario Brother Wii, is mostly a helpful guide to save Princess Toadstool (a.k.a. Princess Peach) from the clutches of evil. If you have the game, I absolutely recommend you own the guide too.
