We also have to remember that the actual total is higher, if we count those who can't connect their 3DS to the internet.

78 average on Metacritic and not one single negative review. That's good.

What did you expect? Mario hasn't been that good since after Sunshine. It's way too easy these days. I even disliked Galaxy which everyone else seemed to love.

Easy does not equate to bad.

Either way, I'm still challenged by them, as many years as I've played Mario games.

over 36.4 billion coins have been collected in its New Super Mario Bros. 2 game worldwide.

When quizzed about the number of coins owed in unpaid taxation, spokespersons from Mario Holdings (Cayman) Ltd declined to comment.

Enjoying the game very much so far since I'd bought it two days ago. Not as refreshing as its prequel, but it's a Super Mario game, so it has to be good and it still always is.

The game IS good.
It's not too hard but it gets pretty challenging later when you're trying not just to go through the game as fast as possible but get the most coins or collect the star coins or speedrun stages or unlock hidden stuff.
It's not completely new, it's still a level pack for SMB3/World kind of gameplay and the music is reused (save for 3 tracks) from the Wii version but new levels are good and hell this game has the most levels out of all Mario games of this type.
