Abstract: Super Mario 3D Land is my first 3DS title. This game inspired me to buy Nintendo's struggling handheld, and as I expected, it's a worthy killer app. Super Mario Land 3D is not perfect, but it is without question an essential purchase for any 3DS owner, particularly in the current retail market where original, worthwhile games are hard to come by. Championing all the achievements the franchise has made over the years, Mario steps boldly into 3D - true 3D - for the first time, and succeeds in delivering a unique platforming experience. ....
Abstract: A few years ago, I received a 3DS for my birthday. My entire family got together and decided that they liked me enough to spend whatever amount of money they spent on the system. Because they are a generous bunch, they even bought a game to go with the 3D...

Abstract: It’s not hard to love Mario. He’s had his ups and downs – what, for example, was the deal with Paper Mario? And Super Mario Strikers was pretty hard to love, at least for this non-sports fan – but darn it if the little guy doesn’t keep coming back for...
Abstract: Mario is Nintendo’s mascot and most recognizable character. Mario and friends appear in a lot of games of varying genres and quality, but the “true” Mario series is a platforming series. For nearly every Nintendo system Mario platformers have been cons...
Abstract: Super Mario 3D Land captures the classic essence that has worked so manageably well in previous efforts featuring the plumber, from the sound effects that many grew up with to the retro-flavored design (question marked blocks, Koopas, Goombas) that w...
Abstract: Other writers have stated the same thing but it bears repeating: Super Mario 3D Land should have been a 3DS launch title. Here's a title where the 3D, arguably the 3DS's biggest selling feature, doesn't feel like just another bullet point ...
Abstract: Super Mario Land 3D Review1 2 When you've conquered the galaxy twice, where do you go next? The universe would seem to be the logical step forward, but then Nintendo's mascot - particularly in recent years - has rarely taken the most straightforward ro...
Abstract: Mario is one of the hardest-working men in video games. Whether he's competing in the Olympics or exploring outer space, this gaming icon stays busy. Super Mario 3D Land puts the plumber though his paces with yet another search-and-rescue mission to f...
Abstract: Always bet on Mario. It's a given that Nintendo rarely fails when dealing with its mustachioed mascot, and there's no denying that when a Nintendo system is in trouble, everybody's favorite plumber can bail it out. The 3DS is in need of some competit...
