I have a huge Mario gap in my gaming history because I ended up going: nes > Sega Genesis > ps1 > ps2 > ps3/wii > PC gaming (where I am today) there's a lot I missed from Nintendo over the years but I recently played through this game and I personally loved how original and new/fresh it felt. Definitely reminded me of how i felt about Mario 3 on nes when I first played it.

What say you? Did you enjoy it? Want to see this become a new series in the Mario saga?

I don't really think there are 'series' in the Mario saga. There's basically two streams of Mario game that have co-existed since Mario 64 - the 2D games and the 3D games.

Mario Wonder is the best 2D one I've played in years. Right back to SNES Mario World.

I'm more than happy to have more 2D ones like this.

I would say the 2d series can be broken up into distinct series. Especially with the 'New SMB' games
