Couldn't agree more. Its the only reason I keep the wii u hooked up to the telly. Massive fun in 2-4 player as well. For 17 quid? Amazing value.

Yep, cracking price. Hopefully Super Mario Galaxy 3 on the NX will be this good. :smirk:

That's the gringo cover (ESRB), Mix. This is the European:
You wouldn't want to mislead that the Wii U is region free. :smirk:

No misleading was intended. The original image provided by Base was simply so tiny that you would hardly see it on the deal. I just googled and replaced the image with a bigger one but must have missed the difference. Will update the post accordingly but I do think a tiny [E] or [3] on the corner of the image does not make any difference here since the price is more of an interest here. :smile:

Some people don't really think or notice that small detail that makes all the difference. Fingers crossed the next console will be region free so the whole PEGI/ESRB becomes irrelevant.

Nintendo always make top quality Mario games. Personally if we see a mario 64 two style game for launch with the Nintendo NX, it's going to be half successful at least. Certainly will make me pre order the console from day one.

Amazing game, possibly the best on the Wii U. much better than the 2D Mario games.

Absolutely! Way, way better than the 2d games. Mario Galaxy still the best imo though.

This and Mario Kart probably the best games on Wii U but, arguably, the most enjoyable is Rayman Legends.

Really is a sublime game. So accessible I can play it with my 3 year old, but so polished and refined in its gameplay that it's also the very best example of a core Mario game IMO. Joy in pixels.

great comment, I played it through on my own save file to properly complete the game, and had a separate file for playing with my kids, 3 and 6 at the time. Like playing two different games! A joy

Awesome game for the Nation's Favourite Console™. In all seriousness, I enjoyed it, but not as much as Super Mario Galaxy 2. Still the best 3D platformer of the generation, although that might not say much.

What does selects mean, there's 2 versions of this on website just wondered what the difference was apart from price as I've never ordered from base before, thanks
