New Super Mario Bros. 2025-03-19

New Super Mario Bros. is a side-scrolling 2.5D platform game first released for the Nintendo DS in the United States on May 15, 2006, starring Mario and Luigi. It is the tenth entry in the Super Mario series[10][11] and, not counting re-releases and remakes, the first side-scrolling platformer in the series to be released since Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, 13½ years prior in 1992, starting a new revival of the 2D Mario platformers, succeeding the Super Mario Advance series. The game features a solo story mode with Mario or Luigi, a two-player wireless Mario Vs. Luigi mode, and a minigame mode for up to four players. The multiplayer games support both single-card and multi-card play. Most of the minigames are the same as those featured in Super Mario 64 DS, which are no longer required to be unlocked. The gameplay is based on that of the classic 2D platformers and builds upon them to create gameplay both classic and contemporary. It introduced moves from Super Mario 64 to 2D Super Mario games for the first time and added several new enemies, bosses, and obstacles to the franchise.
