There's a lot that makes Super Mario 3D World stand out as one of Nintendo's best platformers ever made.

It's one of the most interesting Mario experiences in a long time, just because it feels both familiar and refreshingly different. The more interesting conversation surrounds Bowser's Fury, the new side story. That's because this was our 2013 Game of the Year and everything that was said then still applies today. A lot of it will sound familiar to anybody who read Shacknews at the end of 2013. There's a lot to say about Super Mario 3D World. It's been great to see some of that system's best games release on the Nintendo Switch and now Switch owners have received arguably the Wii U's best title: Super Mario 3D World. Some of Nintendo's best efforts released during the Wii U generation and many people missed out on those games, because there were a lot of people who didn't own the ill-fated console.
