I played through the first couple worlds with a friend yesterday and the charm was wearing a bit so I’m inclined to like this take
it’s really good in some ways (love the approach to the world map, we even found the special world) but the regular level design and physics are only intermittently better than what I remember of NSMB and not as exciting as 3D land/world were when they first seemed like they’d learned how to do this again. like it’s not a step backwards to the Gamecube/Wii era lows but it’s not essential either
