A friend got this for my brother for Christmas and we've both been playing. It's a bit easy for a veteran gamer, but has all the fun and charm of the Mario games. Even in my mid-20s, I had the same smile on my face when I started playing as I did when I got my N64 and saw Mario in 3D; I still react similarly to the camera angles, but with a more diverse vocabulary of profanity. I love this game and would recommend it to anyone.
On a side note, player 2 making Mario jump at inappropriate times is the new Battletoads level 2 wrecking ball. Whoever does it laughs with childish delight while the victim does his best to punch player 2 in the genitals.
