An okay Mario game with some fun to be had, kinda just feels too easy for like 90% of the game, but my main issue with this game is that it's really repetitive especially if you're trying to 100% it and get all 5 stars in your save file; a large chunk (if not the majority) of the post-game stages are just slight rehashes of previous stages (and they eventually become rehashes of previous post-game stages too), so more often than not, when you play a "new" post-game stage, you're gonna feel like "oh haven't I been here already?"

And the fact you actually need to clear all stages with all 5 characters in order to fully complete it doesn't help things either, while there are differences between the characters in terms of their movesets and stats, they just don't feel different enough to make up for it, 6.5/10

A surprisingly solid short-but-really-fun collect-a-thon, ended up binging it in a span of 2 days and was left wanting more (which, in a way, ig that's basically the "best ending" to a game?), 9/10

Pros: The game is really fun to play with friends and family, the movement is fluent and enjoyable to play with, especially the dive they added in the switch port. All of the levels are fun to play around with, even champions road, even though it was tough as nails. Collecting stamps and green stars is a fun challenge, even though some of them were a bit ridiculous. The bowser's fury mode is a great addition and lets you take a break if you've had enough of the main game. Collecting the cat shines was also very fun.

Mixed: The story is very basic which is expected of a Mario platformer like this.

Cons: Having to reach the flag pole with every character for 100% doesn't add anything to the experience, like collecting stamps, green stars, and getting the golden flag pole is.

A successful open-world Mario experiment. They got good open-world design down with challenging, fun objectives, traversal, and freedom. The map is also dynamic. Locations change to set up for new challenges after you complete an objective similar to Mario 64 levels. The recurring Bowser appearances puts even more pressure on the player while collecting cat shines while also providing opportunities to get items I couldn't get when he's not around. The fight against Bowser is a Kaiju battle making Mario large enough to tower over the whole map for the boss fight. The game is never too challenging, but it is always fun. I beat the game after collecting 50 cat shines, but I went back to get all 100.

I found what I dislike with the "Mario 3D" Land/World: the non-precise gameplay.
To me, 2D Mario are all about precise platforming. 3DWorld tries to convey this feeling, but just fails and leads to imprecise platforming, and frustrating moments. Moreover, the camera is a real nightmare to help gauge the distance for jumping in specific situations. Overall it was an okay game, where the creativity is more linked to visual ideas than anything else. A bit poor, if you ask me. It would have been a 60/65% max without Bowser's Fury (BF).

BF was much more convincing. It is a very good idea to experiment in a remake with new things, which work much more. Goodbye imprecise platforming, and hello fun, constrained and short openworld (and I mean it in the most positive way possible). It recycles all technical elements of 3DWorld, but make them in context in a more interesting and convincing way. Also, free the camera and have a "real" 3D Mario was the best idea they could bring to the table. It just improves the readability of the action and platforming and is much less frustrating to play. However, the game falls in the shortcomings of Odyssey: too much "stars" to get. In the context of a little extension, it plays in favour of of adding more playtime, but I hope that for a full game (if Nintendo goes this route), they go back to less but more meaningful stars.

Não joguei a campanha principal do 3D World pois até hoje espero um amigo para jogar comigo, mas a campanha Bowser's Fury, se fosse um pouco mais longa, seria digna de um jogo à parte. Ótimos gráficos, jogabilidade (lembra o Mario Odyssey em alguns momentos, mas com um estilo próprio) e uma história de fundo com o Bowser como verdadeiro badass, não é sempre que se vê.

3D World is not the best Mario Game, not even close, but it deserves more love. It's fun, well crafted, and it offers a good compromise between 2D and 3D Marios. Onlys cons : too easy, and too close to 3D Land.

Bowser's Fury, on the other hand, is praised for being full 3D and different and open-world and everything. But unlike many, it's nothing more than a nice bonus game/interesting experiment for me. Too short to last, fun for sure, but I don't really see the gain in having an open-world Mario at this point.

Joguei o Bowser's Fury primeiro. Um Mario de mundo aberto e que o Bowser é muito assutador quando aparece, principalmente entre os sininhos 45 e 50 que você não consegue mandar ele embora com os raios de luz e ele permanece te enfernizando a fase inteira. Ele gigantesco e imponente na tela e atacando sem parar é amedrontador de verdade. Gostei bastante do jogo.

[Bowser's Fury]
Brilliant remix of the concepts from 3D World. Since Mario has the limited moveset of 3D World, the more simplified levels feel bigger than they are. And because of the short length, the repeated objectives never feel like busy work. I really like how the levels look like miniatures when fighting Bowser. Speaking of him, it's fantastic how it adds a sense of urgency while platforming but some aspects are too contextual. Like having to wait around so he can destroy blocks for the Shine. Despite the open layouts, the game is dense in its platforming. The only hiccup is crossing water to get to these areas but it doesn't take long. One fantastic touch are the layouts changing after you leave, adding new Shines to go along with it. However, this is the 3D Mario with the worst post game. It wasn't worth doing. Just made my experience worse after the fact.

A super fun hint of what's hopefully to come in 3D Mario that masterfully meshes the sandbox and course clear style 3D Mario games. My primary issue is the namesake of the game. The rain storms and stuff just kept getting in the way and I wanted nothing to do with it.

The controls are the same as 3D World as opposed to Odyssey, in that you still need to hold down the sprint button. I don't mind this in 3D Land and 3D World as the camera is largely fixed and odes not need to move. But holding down sprint while also moving the camera is pretty impossible. Persona 5, Dragon Quest XI, and Genshin Impact all have dashes and sprints but in those games, holding down R(1)/ZR(R2) is all you need, making camera movement easy.

The phrase "underrated" is a term that's getting used more and more often, especially in regards to video game discussion, and not necessarily to good effect. It's common these days to see people refer to games they enjoy as underrated, not because they actually are underrated, but more because the game is just old or because it's a less popular title in a popular series. Super Mario 3D World certainly fits in with the latter definition. Released as the flagship Mario title on the poorly-performing Wii U, there's no doubt it didn't have the audience that most other mainline Mario games did at the time, but it's a bit disingenuous to call it underrated—it achieved a rating of 91 on Metacritic upon release and was the 2nd best-selling Wii U title throughout the console's run. With its rerelease on the Nintendo Switch, it's easier to see it for what it is—a great game that, nevertheless, fails to meet the massive expectations that come with being a 3D Mario title.

In hindsight, Super Mario 3D World should have been an easy game to see coming; 3D Mario games were getting more and more linear starting with Galaxy, and the 2D series was starting to have more influence on it. SM3DW is effectively a 3D version of a 2D Mario title, just as Super Mario 3D Land was for the 3DS, but made for a home console. This meant that levels were short and sweet and more self-contained than a typical 3D Mario level would be; it also allowed for a lot more creativity. 3D World has some of the most consistently well-made levels in the entire series, and that's an incredible achievement in such a storied franchise as Mario. Most levels showcase either a new idea or a new application of that idea, and they get a surprising amount of mileage out of them. And because each level is so short, individual-level gimmicks don't overstay their welcome. It should go without saying by now, but of course Mario's movement is as good as ever, and the big band jazz-style soundtrack is excellent.

There's a decent amount of extra content as well; there's 4 extra worlds to unlock, which offer an extra level of challenge. The variety does start to dip a little bit in these extra levels—a good portion of them are remixes of levels from the 8 main worlds—but they're still worth playing. Mystery House and Captain Toad levels serve to diversify the gameplay even further, which makes a long playthrough of 3D World more enjoyable. There's a trade-off to this much variety, though; the game often lacks a strong sense of identity. The levels are often good-not-great, so while fun in the moment, and while no levels feel flat-out bad, many lack enough personality to remain very memorable. 3D World in general seems to be disconnected from any sort of general theme and therefore fails to match the immersion or thematic consistency of a Sunshine or Galaxy title. Many of the levels are made up of floating blocks set against a generic background, and overworld themes rarely influence the levels in them. It's significantly more disjointed than other Mario titles, so it feels like more of a collection of nice levels rather than a full game, and one that lacks the staying power that other 3D Marios have.

The Nintendo Switch rerelease of SM3DW did come with some much-needed improvements, though. For example, running speed was substantially increased, which helped with the game's pace tremendously. There was also the new Bowser's Fury mode, an add-on mode, which all took place in one large level. It's clear this area got a lot of inspiration from Odyssey, and it's mostly a treat to roam around in. Most sub-areas are designed similar to levels in 3D World, but they're aided immensely by removing any loading time and making it feel like a continuous experience. Plessie serves as a good vehicle to make gameplay feel even more seamless, and they always seem to be right where you want them to be. BF potentially offered good insight into what could be the next 3D Mario title, but there are still a few aspects that could have been improved. The mode is focused around Bowser's kaiju mode, which appears every so often but does so at random. Since you need Bowser active to achieve almost 20 of the 100 cat shines in the game, that means a lot of waiting around for something to happen; a much-needed "Summon Bowser" option would have served the mode very well.

Super Mario 3D World is probably the Mario title that benefits the most from hindsight. It wasn't the groundbreaking title that the Wii U needed, and in truth, it doesn't bring the same level of wonder and amazement that other Mario titles have, but that doesn't mean it isn't a great addition to the series. It crucially offers a large amount of variety, both within the game and within the Mario series. It improved upon a lot of the concepts found in 3D Land and showed that a 2D-like 3D Mario title can compete with the highs of Odyssey, Galaxy, and 64; hopefully, future entries to the series reach those highs more often.

Review for Bowser's Fury as I already completed 3D World on the Wii U

Pretty fun but the funny thing is that the main aspect of fighting Bowser in his Giga form and him rising from the black goop the game is designed around actually breaks up the gameplay quite a bit

There are times when you just want to play the course or objective for the cat shine but Bowser shooting fire blasts gets in the way and it can be quite annoying to deal with

Also, the shines regarding blasting the fury blocks requiring bowser's flame breath and the lucky shines which only spawn in when Bowser is in Giga form feel like padding to the otherwise really fun shines scattered around Lake Lapcat

It's a fun small expansion which could be a tease of the future of 3D Mario games to come post Odyssey

I really prefer level based 3d mario games to open world one. It wasn't much creative and fun like super mario galaxy but it was still a good experience.

65%Nintendo Switch

The Bowser's Fury game featured in this port as bonus content takes assets, enemies and mechanics from the base version of Super Mario 3D World and scatters them throughout a fairly large, interconnected map scattered throughout a number of small islands. It is essentially a collection of bonus 3D World levels in a very large Super Mario Odyssey kingdom. Unfortunately, this is the worst of both worlds, as the platforming challenges tend to be shorter and slighter than a level in the actual game, and the open world component serves no purpose (outside the boss sequences) other than to create unnecessary downtime travelling between the actually interesting parts. Almost no interesting content ever occurs in the waters surrounding each island, and there's little in the way of meaningful/rewarding exploration to be found.

The game will occasionally derail itself into a protracted spectacle fight against a giant version of Bowser, who can attack the player whilst in the middle of a platforming challenge and complicate the arrangements further. This is a fun setpiece the first few times, but it occurs way too much with too little variation, and since the game hides collectables in spots that can only be reached during these segments, it eventually leads to a lot of waiting around or aimless idling waiting for Bowser to trigger so you can actually reach the star you want.

Though a handful of control changes have been made to speed Mario up and make him feel better to move overall, there's no getting around the fact that 3D World makes a very poor foundation to build an exploration based game upon. Mario's movement feels a little too binary for it to be very fun to scale the various high rises the game throws at you, and the game can't do much to design around the temporary powerups, which often trivialize the game's intended challenges.

Very well made, but, after an hour, finishing it felt like a chore. Bowser is the consummate troll, showing up every so often just to piss you off during your platforming quests. Much too easy.

I have really mixed feelings about this game. On one hand I really enjoyed the cat power up, the bowser fury mini game, the music and the level design. On the other hand I felt like the game just kept dragging on. You would think that more levels in a mario game would be better, but there's like six secret worlds and each one has to be unlocked by find star coins. So, you have to keep replaying levels in order to find them. It's gets very tedious.

Mario 3D World is an incredible game. It's been a few years since I beat it, so I won't be able to get into too much detail. I mostly played it in multiplayer, and it works extremely well. It feels like a perfect transition from the traditional 2D Mario style of game into 3D. The Cat powerup is extremely fun to use, and a lot of the level and enemy designs are creative and enjoyable. Having Peach and Rosalina (the best Mario character) as playable characters and giving each character their own special movement variations is spectacular. The only small complaint I have is that the game drags on for just a little too long, the 4 post-game worlds just seem like too much.

Now for Bowser's Fury, which I beat just barely. Bowser's Fury is fantastic. It is extremely original and new, there is no other Mario game like it. it is an incredibly big and interesting twist on traditional 3D Marios similar to Mario 64 and Sunshine. Putting the entire game into 1 map sounds a little lame, but it is very well executed. It isn't a long game by any means, it is a (kind of?) DLC after all, but I don't think putting everything into 1 map brought it down at all. I also love how the physics from the base game was kept, it does not have traditional 3D Mario physics which honestly works pretty well. Bowser's constant presence in the game gives a slight sense of urgency and time management, but not too much. The boss fights are mostly great, the scale makes them feel epic (the final phase of the final fight is just a little annoying though). The island designs are all interesting and unique as well, and there are very few overly-cryptic Cat Shines, unlike most other 3D Mario games.

Como Super Mario pode ser bom em fórmulas tão diferentes? Aqui temos um plataforma 3D mais próxima da vertente 2D, porém tem um charme tão próprio. Como a jogabilidade funciona, a exploração dos níveis e aquele fator Nintendo de abandonar mecânicas incríveis sem medo. Somente o jogo base, com os mundos extras e os níveis do Captain Toad, já valem o jogar, agora, ainda há um jogo menor separado. Bowser's Fury é ótimo como adicional, um protótipo muito bem feito de mundo aberto, mas um protótipo, ainda há o que polir aqui e evoluir.

I have to distinguish between the base game and Bowser's Fury.
The base game is a collection of good ideas, but it has a huge flaw: it doesn't know whether it's a 3D Mario or a 2D Mario. The precision required to land on enemies ad platform is on the same high level of the 2D games, but the movement and the air control are not as sharp as in the other 2D Marios; furthermore, the handling of the camera doesn't help at all: having a fixed camera made it so that too many times I missed an enemy by an inch and it hit me (and I cosider myself a veteran Mario player, having played almost all the games in the main series). If it was for the base game, the review score would've been very much lower.
Bowser's Fury on the other hand is really good, having completely embraced the 3D Mario essence. It feels like a big Odyssey world, with a lot of clever and fun ideas. I'm really disappointed though with the technical side, being it completely unplayable in handheld mode and very unstable in docked mode.
In both games the OSTs were really good.

Este es de los mejores juegos plataformas 3D que he jugado en mi vida, el diseño de niveles me parece grandioso y superoriginal, la historia es un poco meh (típico de los juegos de Mario) pero todos sabemos que el sello de Nintendo está en la jugabilidad y diversión obtenida durante el viaje, tengo que destacar el pedazo de banda sonora que se han marcado aquí; SUBLIME de principio a fin. La batalla final contra Browser es de las mejores (si no la mejor) del universo Mario. Ahora, con la segunda parte del juego o Bowser's Fury, han hecho algo interesante y nuevo en la franquicia que es esa especie de mini mundo abierto donde disfrute mucho también, aunque se me hizo algo corto. Este juego es un 10/10 para mí, estoy seguro de que lo rejugare muchas veces o incluso intentaré pasarlo al 100% que es un poco jodido.

Short review prior to playing post game worlds and Bowser's Fury

Super Mario 3D World is a best in class game. Even 10 years after release, it's a timeless modern classic that let Nintendo stretch their muscles and exercise their multi decade long experience with platformers. Despite its reputation as the most tame "3D Mario" game, it's a title I'd wholeheartedly recommend to absolutely anyone, whether they're fans of the genre or not. It's inventive, colourful and revolutionary, in its own way. It brought 2D platforming principles into the three dimensional space, it brought brand new power-ups like the Cat Suit and Double Cherries. It even brought new stage objects like the clear pipes. It's a wonderfully presented and often understated entry in the series, but it's a gleeful experience that shouldn't be ignored.

So, all I can ask is that you do the following:

GO OUT AND BUY A COPY OF SUPER MARIO 3D WORLD PLUS BOWSER'S FURY ON YOUR NINTENDO SWITCH.

Edit after completing Bowser's Fury

I feel even more positive on this game package after playing Bowser's Fury, which, even with its 3D World aesthetic, is very much in style of Odyssey's collectathon. The latter of which being my favourite Mario game full stop, so it's no surprise I loved this bizarre 5 hour long expansion. Infact, it even bests Odyssey in one huge way, the seemingless transition into a (slightly) bigger, interconnected open world. In practice, well, it's not quite that seamless, as the long loading screens have become a bit of a running joke to many, but it proves that Mario as a series can go in this direction and commit to it fully on a system with more power. If the next 3D title is in this fashion, I'd be very happy, especially if it kept some elements of the weird Kaiju fights that blew me away the first time and even the last.

It's a bit of a shocking move from the same Nintendo who deemed Pikmin 3 and DKC:TF not worthy of anything but basic ports. But, in a sense, Mario is a long seller and they know the easiest way to get people to buy it again is to add big kitty boss fights.

Did I forget to say I loved it? Because I did. That's all folks, I'm retaining my original rating and reminding you to:

Anyone who played 3D World back on the Wii U know that it is a great game. I don't like it as much as the other 3D Mario games like Odyssey and Galaxy, but it's still a great time for solo players and groups. I personally have always felt that the level designs of these games are a bit restrictive with the start to finish type of level, which is why I enjoy Odyssey more, but that's more of a personal preference thing than an actual problem with the game. The difficulty has a good range, with Champion's Road being the hardest level of any baseline Mario game in my opinion, and the music is great. It's hard to say too much since it's a port, but Bowser's Fury is definitely the best part of the game. It's basically a bigger Odyssey world but with 3D World gameplay, and it is absolutely great. My only real complain about that part is that it's too short, but if the next Super Mario game is taking that type of approach, we are going to be in for a real treat once that eventually releases.

Super Mario 3D World brilla por su estilo de plataformeo poco desafiante, pero demasiado entretenido. Pasarse el juego al 100% no es difícil, y en mi primera run solo me faltaron 2 sellos tener todos los desbloqueables. Sobre los mundos adicionales, casi todos los niveles son reutilizados del juego principal, pero agregándoles alguna mecánica que los vuelva un poco mas interesantes, pero nada demasiado complicado. Lo complicado viene tras completar el juego al 100%, pues se desbloquea el ultimo mundo adicional. Este tiene el nivel mas difícil del juego, una verdadera hazaña plataformera. Sin power-ups, y con Rosalina, me demore 3 horas en pasarme el nivel, aunque tengo que decir que cada vez que cometía un error lo reiniciaba, por lo que hice una run perfecta.

En Switch, se agrego un modo extra llamado Bowser's Fury. Este es un excelente agregado, que a mi gusto debería ser el siguiente paso dentro de la franquicia de Mario en 3D. El impecable diseño de niveles de este pequeño mundo abierto da el espacio para una gran y pequeña aventura de no mas de 3 horas. Aunque, tras terminarlo, quede con ganas de mas, por lo que termine consiguiendo los 100 soles, concluyendo con la verdadera batalla final. La mayor falencia de este agregado es su duración, pero en todos los otros aspectos un alto contendiente a ser una de las mejores aventuras de Mario en 3D.

3D World: Great fun game, you don't have to like Mario to enjoy this game, tight controls, shit story, great levels. Better with friends and family, guaranteed. The fact that you no longer have to finish each level with all the characters to reach the really difficult final levels is a positive in my book.

Bowser's Fury is an open world Mario game, once again great fun, shit story and great levels! Not as good as Mario Odyssey but up there with the greats in my view.

When this game came out, everyone got angry. I could see why at the time, something like this coming off of the classic super mario Galaxy 1 & 2 did seem underwhelming. And while this game might not be as those games were, it still provided a wonderful experience to go through. And now that we have odyssey, its hard not to just love this game. It presents itself like a 2D game, with shorter levels and flagpoles to get. There are lots of memorable levels in here with amazing ideas, but there are also a lot of forgettable levels. I would say one main redeeming factor however is the multiplayer. Screwing over your friends is fun in 2D but the extra dimension allows for so much more creativity. Another amazing addition to this switch release is bowsers fury, Which I would say was a prefect experience through and through. Combining the best of Odyssey and 3D world into a nice little package.

Super Mario Bowsers Fury was great but I just wish there was more. The game was over well too quickly and I was still unsatisfied after 100% completion.
