I've been watching South Americans stream it on YT throughout the day and I think it looks pretty good. I'm not a big fan of the elephant power up, especially the sound it makes when Mario jumps, but I was tuning that out fast enough. I'm curious how soon these channels are gonna get nuked for streaming it early. Hold on, there are some Japanese men in suits at my front door. I'll be right back.
 
Runs fine on Ryujinx. Plan on putting it on my deck tomorrow.

Also if anyone here figures out how you get the checkmark for each level let me know because I can't figure it out.
In order to get a checkmark you need all the wonder seeds, the three big purple coins, and you have to get the top of the flagpole. If you have all that and still don't have a checkmark, it means there's a secret exit you need to find.

Didn't realize there were secret levels. Thank you for that.
 
Oooh, we Mario World again? Does that mean secret levels?
Secret EXITS. Which means it's probably the same as the "New" games where you have to search the entire level for a hidden room/pipe that leads you to a different colored castle which opens up an alternative route to a place you had no idea existed or a shortcut. Even 3D land/world had them.
 

I see Nintendo has been abusing some heavy drugs to come up with new ideas for thsir games now.
 
Haven't set it up on my deck yet (have to update keys) but did play the first level. The talking flower things are creepy as fuck and first thing I'll do is make them speak in gibberish or turn them off. And the elephant... is definitely an elephant. Seems lile a huge step down from racoon.
 
Got to the end of World 2 with friends and the game is legimately a lot of fun but runs into the issue where the camera only focuses on one player and won't move until that player does. Focus is based off of progress and how high somebody gets up the flagpole. This totally fucks you over on some of the expert levels that require a good amount of precision because the camera keeps jolting around because it's bouncing between 4 people. It'd be way fucking better if the camera just zoomed out like the other NSMB games. The game runs perfectly on Ryujinx.

Oh it's Mario World for sure, you find red exits that lead you to an offpath and you have the "Special World" that acts like Star World

As for emulator performance, yeah it runs just fine on ryujinx but as of this post Yuzu can't even boot into it, but give it a bit and it'll probably run it just fine there
 
This game is excellent. Absolutely fantastic. It's one of those games that's so good it reminds me just how much I love a great game, and it makes me that much angrier that I ever have to have shit like Starfield exist in my world at all. It should just be illegal for any nation other than Japan to make video games now.

I am in complete agreement, Wonder has tons of charm, beautiful visuals / animations, fantastic controls and excellent level design plus the whole thing just feels so fresh after an eternity of "New Super Mario Bros" sequels.

As for new entirely new stuff, elephant mario is cute but mechanically just fine, however the badges are a brilliant addition and allow Nintendo to freely rip off mechanics from other recent-ish platformers.

Also Bowser's a crazy-eyed castle (for some reason) and that makes me chuckle.
