Gameplay
This game features some of the same things in Super Mario 3D Land. There are four playable characters; Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad. However the player can unlock a fifth playable character, Rosalina. Each character features there own upgrades or abilities. Mario is Average with everything, Luigi Jumps higher and falls slower, Peach can jump and float in the air for a short period of time but runs really slow, Toad can jump not as high but falls faster and sprints faster, and Rosalina can use a spin move attack. All these characters can be switched before the map starts. This game has the usual power ups, but there is also more power ups introduced. The Bell will give you a cat power which will allow you to climb walls to get to pipes and reach new areas. The doubles cherries will allow you to duplicate your character so there is 2 of you to run around. The player can also put on goomba masks, Light blocks, and cannon boxes. Overall this gameplay is really fun to play and would recommend trying it out.

Controls
The controls at first are pretty confusing but easy to learn. On the WiiU pad you can use the touchscreen to find hidden blocks and touch enemies to paralyze them making it easier to kill them,with the mic you can blow into it and blow enemies away and activate mechanisms. With the joy stick to move, A and B to jump, and X and Y to hit people is really simple. Just a touch of a button and your doing something its that easy. Everything is placed in the right spot and doesn't really need and improvements at all. No improvements or enhancements need to this really at all there fantastic.

Graphics
The graphics are amazingly good! On your WiiU Pad it is HD, really detailed, and aren't that bright in some spots. If you dont have a HD TV all you have to do is look at your pad and it makes a huge difference. On your TV its great until you play a Boo level or a dark level. If your on a dark level it is too dark and you have to look at your WiiPad. Besides that everything is great and doesnt need much improvements and needs to be brighter in some areas. Great Graphics.
