Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a side-scrolling platform game released worldwide for the Nintendo Switch on October 20, 2023. First announced during the June 2023 Nintendo Direct, it is the twenty-second installment in the Super Mario series and the first new full-fledged 2D Super Mario game since New Super Mario Bros. U released almost 11 years prior. It is also the first game to feature Kevin Afghani as the voice of Mario and Luigi, succeeding Charles Martinet, as well as the first game in the Super Mario franchise as a whole to be released since the initial release of Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope exactly one year prior.

A dedicated Nintendo Direct for the game titled the "Super Mario Bros. Wonder Direct" broadcasted on August 31, 2023 at 7:00 a.m. PT / 10:00 a.m. ET.

Overview

The main playable characters in the Flower Kingdom in the opening cutscene.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a 2.5D-style platformer that supports both single-player and simultaneous multiplayer modes. Its art direction is reminiscent of the New Super Mario Bros. series of games, incorporating changes such as updated character designs and new sets of animations.

Alongside Mario and Luigi, several other characters are also playable, including Princess Peach, Princess Daisy, Yellow Toad, Blue Toad, Toadette, Yoshis of four different colors, and Nabbit. Their moveset features standard abilities, for instance the Wall Jump and the Ground Pound. The Yoshis retain their Flutter Jump, ability to use their tongue, and can also be used as a mount, and they and Nabbit do not take any damage from enemies. The players can receive new abilities by consuming power-ups, both returning and brand new ones, such as an elephant-themed fruit.

The signature feature of the game is the Wonder Flower, a power-up that changes the world around Mario and friends in unique and strange ways, examples including bringing Warp Pipes to life and causing themselves and elements of the stage to stretch upward. Also revolving around the "Wonder" theme are the Wonder Seeds and purple coins, prominent collectibles. Another notable addition are Talking Flowers, non-playable characters that populate the levels and comment on the events and gimmicks nearby.

The game takes place in a location distinct from its predecessors, and foregoes some of their established elements while featuring new level themes, such as autumnal forests and savannas. The hub consists of a contiguous world map, similar to that of New Super Mario Bros. U, where each level is represented by a 3D modeled icon, as in Super Mario 3D World. Also similar to both games, levels have unique names. Each one is also assigned a difficulty rating in-game, a feature only found previously in Super Mario Maker 2's Story Mode.

Unlike every other 2D side-scrolling Super Mario game, excluding Super Mario Bros. 2, there is no score or Time Limit in this game, allowing players to explore levels for as long as they wish. When a player bounces off enemies or other objects repeatedly, words appear in the order "Good", "Great", "Super", "Fantastic", "Excellent", "Incredible", and "Wonderful"; from then onwards, they receive 1-Ups.

Plot

This section is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.

Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Princess Daisy, Yellow Toad, Blue Toad, and Toadette are invited to the Flower Kingdom, a neighbor to the Mushroom Kingdom, ruled by Prince Florian. Florian shows off the Wonder Flower to his visitors, when suddenly, Bowser, Bowser Jr., and Kamek arrive. Bowser takes hold of the Wonder Flower, merging him, his Koopa Clown Car, and Florian's castle, the Flower Castle, to become Castle Bowser, who spreads havoc across the entire kingdom, including trapping the kingdom's inhabitants, the Poplins, in their homes. Not wanting to let this stand, Mario and company eagerly decide to help save the Flower Kingdom, and, with Florian, four Yoshis, and Nabbit, set off to stop Bowser's plans once again.

Mario and his allies journey through Pipe-Rock Plateau, Fluff-Puff Peaks, Shining Falls, Sunbaked Desert, Fungi Mines, and Deep Magma Bog, collecting the Royal Seed from each in order to remove the Cloud Piranhas protecting Castle Bowser, defeating an enhanced Bowser Jr. three times and disabling three flying battleships summoned by Kamek in the process, before confronting Bowser within the castle from Petal Isles. After getting through some more of his defenses, Mario and his allies eventually defeat Castle Bowser, preventing him from using Wonder powers to terrorize the universe, and saving the Flower Kingdom, leaving the heroes, along with Florian and the Poplins, to celebrate.

Meanwhile, a post-credits scene shows a defeated Bowser back to normal in his Koopa Clown Car; due to his weight, he, his son, and Kamek all crash in the background.

Playable characters

All 12 playable characters in the game

Counting the colored Toads and Yoshis separately, Super Mario Bros. Wonder features 12 playable characters, the most playable characters in a mainline Super Mario game. Among them, Daisy and the Yoshis are playable for the first time in a home console Super Mario game after being previously playable in Super Mario Run. Most characters have the same attributes and play identically aside from revealing different Invisible Character Blocks. The Yoshis and Nabbit do not take damage from most obstacles and enemies, but cannot transform using power-ups. Additionally, Nabbit does not flinch from attacks, while the Yoshis retain their ability to Flutter Jump, use their tongues, and allow other characters to ride them.

Levels

A map of the Flower Kingdom

The game is set in the Flower Kingdom, and has eight different worlds, consisting of six main, numbered worlds, a central world to which all of them connect called the Petal Isles, and the Special World. Each world contains a mix of both regular levels and smaller, bonus levels, of different types:

• Break Time! levels are short levels with a specific objective in order to obtain the Wonder Seed.
• Badge Challenge and Expert Badge Challenge levels involve using the abilities of a particular badge in order to reach the goal. The player is also rewarded with the badge upon completing the level. Players temporarily start the level in their Small form, and failing the challenge will not cause any lives to be lost. Despite their short length, they still hold three 10-flower coins in them, but unlike regular levels, the 10-flower coins are not saved if the player fails the challenge.
• Wiggler Race levels involve racing a Wiggler wearing roller skates to the goal.
• KO Arena levels involve defeating gauntlet of enemies in succession, similar to some of the Mystery House levels in Super Mario 3D World. These levels also have three 10-flower coins which are awarded based on how fast the player completes the gauntlet.
• Search Party levels involve finding five hidden Wonder Tokens to obtain a Wonder Seed.

There is also a special bonus level known as Bonus: Coins Galore!, which contains many coins and flower coins for the player to collect. It appears when the player(s) receive(s) a Game Over, which causes a golden Propeller Flower to appear on the world map.

Each regular level contains two Wonder Seeds, one of which is obtained by finding the level's Wonder Flower and reaching the end of the Wonder Effect section, and the other obtained by reaching the end of the level and grabbing the Goal Pole. Some levels also have a hidden third Wonder Seed which is obtained by finding a secret exit. Bonus levels and palaces only have one Wonder Seed, the former of which is obtained by completing the level, and the latter of which stems from the Wonder Flower, while the end of palaces instead awards the player with a Royal Seed. Additionally, every regular level, Badge Challenge, and KO Arena level hides three 10-flower coins, which behave similarly to the Star Coins from the New Super Mario Bros. series, the Star Medals from Super Mario 3D Land, and the Green Stars from Super Mario 3D World.

Each location of the Flower Kingdom has a corresponding color for its Wonder Flowers, Wonder Seeds, and interactable tulip-like flowers.

Staff

Main article: List of Super Mario Bros. Wonder staff

Super Mario Bros. Wonder was produced by Takashi Tezuka and directed by Shiro Mouri, who previously served as the programming director for New Super Mario Bros. U and director for New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. This is the first game in the Mario franchise to feature Kevin Afghani as the voice of Mario and Luigi, succeeding Charles Martinet, who voiced the brothers since Mario in Real Time in 1991. It is also the first game to feature Giselle Fernandez as the voice of Daisy in lieu of Deanna Mustard, who voiced the character since 2003's Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour; and Dawn M. Bennett as Nabbit.

Development

Masanobu Sato's proposed concept of warping the player after collecting an item. This would eventually become the final game's Wonder Effects.

Takashi Tezuka began conceptualizing ideas for Super Mario Bros. Wonder during the development of Super Mario Maker 2. He had already planned for the game to be very different from the Super Mario Maker games which was further motivated by public sentiment saying the Super Mario Maker games eliminated the need for another 2D Super Mario game. Shiro Mouri also said that the game should run on a new engine during the beginning of development. In order for the developers to reach Tezuka's proposal, no deadline was given. They held an idea-sharing session in order to come up with ideas that would surprise players, a strategy used during the creation of 3D Super Mario games. Koji Kondo even suggested some ideas, including that Mario be transformed into an anatomically realistic version of himself. In the end, they ended up with over 2,000 ideas written down on sticky notes.

One of the ideas Masanobu Sato had come up with was warping the player to another world after collecting an item. Tezuka dismissed the idea since warping to a different location has already been used in the games and instead suggested that the level itself transforms. After making a prototype where a Warp Pipe moves like a creature, Mouri came up with the central theme where the world would dramatically change in a way unseen in previous games. They contextualized this radical change through the Wonder Effect mechanic. To compliment this change, the soundscape also changed to be more unconventional. More emphasis is given to environmental sounds and sound effects and the background music incorporates digital synthesizers, contrasting against the analog synthesizer used in New Super Mario Bros.

The increased expressiveness in the animations was inspired by The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Tezuka comments that new players will expect Mario to animate similarly to how he does in the movie. He later clarifies that the developers did not know the specifics of the movie and were just aware that new players would base their expectations of the game on the movie. With the increased detail in the animations, the number of animations and joints on the models have more than doubled when compared to New Super Mario Bros. U.

Promotion

By pre-ordering the game through GameStop, customers received an exclusive sticker set depicting the playable characters, a Wonder Flower, and a Talking Flower.

The promotional image showing all of the possible cards

By pre-ordering the game through Walmart's website, customers received a trading card pack, each containing ten cards randomly pulled from a total of 20 difference cards to get. All of the possible cards that were distributed in the card packs include 15 base cards, 4 holofoil cards, and a limited edition holofoil card depicting Elephant Mario with only 1,000 produced.

At Target, an exclusive shadowbox collectable depicting the game's main artwork could be received with purchase of the game in-store.

By pre-ordering the game through Best Buy's website, customers received a free art print with the game's main artwork.

In Canada, customers were given a free Elephant Mario keychain as a pre-order bonus for the game at GameStop. Those who pre-ordered the game at Walmart received an exclusive pop-out magnetic set.

An Elephant Fruit stress ball was initially announced as a pre-order bonus for certain retailers in multiple regions, including the My Nintendo Store in Europe (alongside pins of an Elephant Fruit, Talking Flower, and Wonder Flower), GAME in the UK, and JB Hi-Fi in Australia, though it was later canceled due to production issues. My Nintendo Store customers instead only received the pins, while the stress ball was replaced by the same pins with GAME and a pin of Elephant Mario with JB Hi-Fi. A bundle containing the game, a Talking Flower resin figure, 2D diorama, and magnets using the game's promotional artwork is also available at the My Nintendo Store in the UK and Ireland. Customers in Australia who pre-ordered the game through EB Games received the same pins as Europe's My Nintendo Store and GAME.

In Italy, a "Super Mario Immersive Hub" was open in Milan on October 14 and 15, in which the game's demo could be played. A promotional event made in collaboration with soccer club Catania FC took place at Stadio Angelo Massimino in Catania on October 22.

Advertisements for the game were shown in Times Square.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder received critical acclaim, with an aggregate score of 93 out of 100 based on 80 reviews on aggregator Metacritic, the highest for a 2D Super Mario Bros. title since New Super Mario Bros., released in 2006 for the Nintendo DS.

Reviews
Release	Reviewer, Publication	Score	Comment
Nintendo Switch	John Rairdin, NintendoWorldReport	9/10	"However, even with these blemishes, at the end of the day Super Mario Bros. Wonder is an incredible breath of fresh air overall. It has reaffirmed that 2D Mario has the potential to be more than just good, it can be incredible. It sweeps away any concerns I had that my love of the best games in the series isn’t just nostalgia and that a truly original 2D Mario absolutely has the potential to stand alongside Super Mario Bros. 3, and Super Mario World. While Super Mario Bros. Wonder isn’t quite perfect, it is a gleaming star we can hopefully follow into a new era for 2D Mario."
Nintendo Switch	Jess Lee, Digital Spy	3.5/5	"It is a game that tries to evoke a feeling of discovery at every possible turn, but in doing so loses the element of wonder fairly quickly. Instead, Wonder's strongest moments are when it takes a breather, taking the time to set the scene while letting the platforming do the talking."
Nintendo Switch	Jenni Lada, Silconera	9/10	"Super Mario Bros Wonder is clearly designed to be a game for everyone, regardless of skill level. The relative ease of main campaign stages that aren’t hidden away and addition of badges and “easy mode” characters Yoshi and Nabbit absolutely feel welcoming. The plethora of secrets and variety in stages feel more suited for people familiar with the series, giving them something to dig into as they play. While the downside means a somewhat decreased challenge, it’s still a delight."

References to other media

• Mario Bros.: This game's demonstration cutscene music track (a snippet of Mozart's Eine kleine Nachtmusik) is rearranged for the introduction screen of KO Arena levels, and the phase start music track (phase 2 onward) is rearranged for the music tracks played during rounds in these levels.
• Super Mario Bros.: Mario's jumping animation closely resembles the Template:Media link he makes on the Japanese box art from this game. Several notes from the ending fanfare are played at the beginning of the intro cutscene. The secret exit in Piranha Plants on Parade, the second level of the game, shows a pipe configuration identical to the one in World 1-2 shortly after the end-of-level fortress. Shining Falls Special Triple Threat Deluge's first section remakes the beginning of World 1-1 and the lift section of World 1-2. In The Sharp Trial: Launch to Victory, during the Wonder Flower's effect, there is a block formation referencing the Fire Flower sprite from this game.
• Super Mario Bros. 2: The Power Squat Jump move reappears as the Crouching High Jump badge, and Luigi's high jump and Scuttle return as the Floating High Jump badge.
• Super Mario Bros. 3: Nipper Plants and lava on the ceiling return. Boos are redesigned with smaller eyes and highly-raised eyebrows like in this game's artwork. The Enemy Course theme is reused in the Trottin' Piranha Plants minigame. A cover of the P-Meter sound effect can faintly be heard behind the sound of an inflating Item Balloon. Muncher Fields is based on World 7-7. The minigame theme is reused for the Wonder Effect in Taily's Toxic Pond and a portion of the end credits.
• Super Mario Land: A loading screen tip describing Daisy mentions Sarasaland, a location from this game.
• Super Mario World: Princess Peach is escorted to the Flower Kingdom by Yoshi with her hands on her lap, similar to the ending from this game. The Yoshis' design shares traits from their design from this game and are the same colors (except with Light-Blue Yoshi instead of Blue Yoshi). Several of Mario and Luigi's animations are similar to the ones in this game such as ducking, falling with their caps floating up slightly, and losing a life. Ground is differentiated from Semisolid Platforms by being sodded on all of its sides as opposed to only being sodded on its upper side, like in this game. The digging sound when using the Drill powerup resembles the sound effect for when a block is broken from this game. The player can throw shells upward and crouch while holding items. The new snail enemies can be removed from their shells when stomped on similar to Koopa Troopas. One of the Wonder Effects is the playable character inflating like a balloon. Lil Sparkies, Hotheads, Rotating Blocks, and semisolid slopes return. The Add ! Blocks badge functions similarly to this game's Switch Palaces. Yoshis can extend their tongues through walls like in this game. Cheep Cheeps actively avoid changing water tides like in this game. After completing a World, a cutscene plays with dialogue that reflects on the player's journey, which are reminiscent of similar cutscenes that play when the player destroys a Castle in this game.
• Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island: The 1-Up jingle sounds very similar to how it did in this game. Melon Piranha Plants spit seeds similar to Yoshi and Ukikis with a watermelon, and Yoshis can spit seeds by eating them as well. The Yoshis' animations like running and falling is similar to this game's.
• Super Mario 64: Part of "Koopa's Theme" plays when Bowser is transformed into Castle Bowser from the effects of the Wonder Flower. An arrangement of "Slider" plays during the bonus level Coins Galore! The player can gain their Metal form during a Wonder Effect, with a new arrangement of the form's theme from this game playing during it. Swimming with a shell speeds players up and gives them freer movement, a mechanic that first appeared in this game.
• Yoshi's Story: Wheel lifts return.
• Super Mario Sunshine: The Underground Theme arrangement reduces the main motif to three notes, sounding similar to the Delfino Airstrip theme. The "Isle Delfino" and "Secret Course" themes are reused for Break Time! levels. Revvers can be pulled from their leashes and launched forwards and wear red, spiked collars similar to Chain Chomplets.
• Yoshi Topsy-Turvy: Red Yoshi's artwork from the character select screen has a similar pose to Template:Media link from this game.
• New Super Mario Bros. series: The "Super Mario Bros." part of the series' logo is used in this game's logo, with the design being based on its more three-dimensional appearance as of New Super Mario Bros. 2. The sound that Yoshis make when stomping on enemies is reused. Secret Goal Poles with red flags and black bases return. Bowser Jr. flees after being defeated, just like in New Super Mario Bros. and New Super Mario Bros. Wii.
• New Super Mario Bros.: The new Bob-omb-esque enemies function similarly to Kab-ombs. Bowser Jr. is fought without his Junior Clown Car during boss battles, just like his boss battles in the game's towers on every world.
• Super Mario Galaxy: Captain Toad's theme returns from this game. Pumpkins with a Jack O'Goomba's face carving appear. The theme that plays when the Cosmic Clone-esque enemy is chasing the player is based on the Cosmic Comet theme.
• Mario Party 8: Peach's artwork from the character select screen has a similar pose to Template:Media link from this game.
• New Super Mario Bros. Wii: Invincible Mario's artwork is reused from this game. The Goomba artwork is an updated version of one from this game. The last eight notes of the Super Mario Bros. 3 Enemy Course theme are played when all enemies are defeated in the Trottin' Piranha Plants minigame, like in this game's Enemy Courses. Light-Blue Yoshi's artwork for this game has a very similar pose to Template:Media link from this game, but without Yellow Toad riding on him. The secret area containing the third 10-flower coin of Downpour Uproar is based on the secret area containing the third Star Coin in World 4-3.
• Super Mario Galaxy 2: The Drill Mushroom powerup resembles and functions similarly to the Spin Drill item from this game. Mario's Spike Ball form under the effects of the Wonder Flower functions similar to Rock Mario. The song that plays when the player enters outer space is similar to the Tip Network theme from this game.
• Super Mario 3D Land: Fire Piranha Plants use their coloration from this game.
• Mario Party 9: Yellow Yoshi's artwork uses the same pose as an updated version of Yoshi's artwork from this game.
• New Super Mario Bros. 2: King Boo chases the player(s) in a slow auto-scrolling section similar to Boohemoth. Bone Goombas and Bone Piranha Plants return.
• New Super Mario Bros. U: Bubble Mario can shoot bubbles that function similarly to those of Bubble Baby Yoshis in this game, which were the inspiration for the form. Goombrats return as enemies. As Bowser attempts to retreat after his defeat, he crash-lands into a hill, like in this game.
• New Super Luigi U: Nabbit returns as a playable character with a very similar gameplay style.
• Super Mario 3D World: Certain sections of maps can be freely roamed and zoomed out of like the worlds of this game. Fire Mario's artwork is reused from this game. The Super Dash move returns as the Fast Dash badge. The mechanic of defeating Boos with light sources returns.
• Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U: Yellow Yoshi's artwork from the character select screen has a similar pose to Template:Media link from this game.
• Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker: The Bonus: Coins Galore! stage functions like the Coins Galore levels in this game, including using an arrangement of "Slider".
• Super Mario Maker series: After a Yoshi eats Dry Bones, Bone Goombas, or Bone Piranha Plants, it can spit out three bones that act as projectiles, like in this series' Super Mario World and New Super Mario Bros. U styles. Power-ups, items, or objects can appear out of pipes like in this series if they are inserted into pipes in editing mode. POW Blocks can defeat Munchers, like in this series. Bill Blasters are affected by gravity, like in this series. Stand-alone Vines return. Players reappear in multiplayer with the same way and sound effect from Super Mario Maker 2. An arrangement of the Super Mario Bros.-style airship theme from this game plays in the Airship levels.
• Super Mario Run: The playable character roster from this game returns, albeit with some color variations: Toad is replaced by Yellow Toad and Blue Toad while some Yoshi colors differ as well. The Jet Run badge functions similarly to the gameplay of this game, albeit at a faster pace. Invincible Mario can attract nearby coins like in this game.
• Super Mario Odyssey: Beacons return. The distinction between generic gold Coins and their purple setting-themed variants returns. The player can skip the Warp Pipe-entering animation by performing a Ground Pound, like in this game.
• Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Daisy's artwork from the character select screen has a similar pose to Template:Media link and her up taunt from this game.
• New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe: Peachette's ability of bouncing back out of bottomless pits, lava, and poison returns as the Safety Bounce badge.
• Mario Kart Tour: Daisy's artwork uses the same pointing pose as the Template:Media link from the London Tour.
• The Super Mario Bros. Movie: Fire Peach is depicted without her hair tied up in a ponytail, much like in the film. The increased animation expressiveness was translated over from the film, due to both products releasing the same year.
