Abstract: THOSE concerned for the Nintendo 3DS console in its floundering first few months should fret no more thanks to Mario, who has come to rescue in not one but two new games this Christmas. One sees the Italian plumber back at his karting best. The othe...
Abstract: Compared with the plumber's recent console outings, such as Mario Galaxy 2, the levels here are more straightforward. Mario can attack only using jumps or power-ups and he even shrinks when touched by an enemy. It's the most classic-feeling 3D Mario yet -...
