When the Wii U launched, Nintendo Land was the game that came with the system's Deluxe Set configuration. The collection of themed games seemed like the best bet to recapture the masses who latched onto Wii Sports with Nintendo's last-gen Wii system. But now Nintendo's hoping that Mario & Luigi will do the trick in a new Wii U Deluxe Set bundle. Read more...

Nintendo has always lagged behind when it comes to online offerings, so the quality of New Super Luigi U is reassuring. It may recycle tons of content from the main game, but more Mario platforming action is rarely a bad thing. As a fan of New Super Mario Bros. U, I enjoyed these new twists on the decades-old format.
A portion of an ONM review...The platforming equivalent of rubbing your tummy and patting your head while your childhood enemies tickle your armpits with a dead pigeon. Luigi U is cute, but scattershot in its approach. Mario remains the 2D king... for now...

While it may seem like a bit of a steep price, $19.99, if you're looking for a new way to play a "Mario" game, complete with some new, (finally) challenging levels, "New Super Luigi U" is a great pick up. After all of these years, doesn't Luigi finally deserve a little bit of respect?

It leaves me in a tough position when grading New Super Luigi U. It’s something that many “hardcore” gamers arguably want from the Mario franchise, but also one that’s bound to alienate long term players with its unorthodox player handling.

New Super Luigi U seems to be missing the point of what has made Mario games so beloved for so long. At their best, Mario games are always showing off something new; New Super Luigi U is a faster, more hectic ride through things we've seen before.

At its best, New Super Luigi U is an exhilarating test of skill, but on occasion it dangerously approximates a fan-made ROM hack, mistakenly believing that an increased enemy count equates to satisfying design. Some will undoubtedly find its challenge inviting, but others will rightly expect more ingenuity from Nintendo than this.
A portion of a Wired review...It’s an inventive and enjoyable remix of the game it’s based on, but it’s not the full-length adventure that its price tag or amount of levels suggests. But that’s fine by me.Full review here
