Luigi's own adventure is probably one of the largest DLC packets on the market. The whole New Super Mario U has been remixed, the difficulty level has been tuned, and the slim main character is totally different from the plump plumber. This add-on is well worth the money. [Sept 2013]

An unexpected expansion pack for the New Super Mario Bros. U brings new levels, a new hero, more intense gameplay, and higher difficulty level. It's a shame the multiplayer game is a fail. [Issue#232]

If you have some resistance against frustration and want a short but intensive trip into the New Super Mario Bros. Universe, you should keep that addition in mind.

Es ist genau so wie NSMBU, nur Level wurden umgebaut und schwerer gemacht. Die Level sind auch viel kürzer und man hat weniger Zeit. Ist aufjedenfall eine coole Challenge. Ich habe auch kein Problem damit, dass Luigi auf dem Boden rutscht und sich schwammiger steuert.

New Super Luigi U is definitely the second best game from the “New”-series, of course behind NSMB. Its core feature - fast-paced levels with more challenge - presents NSMBU in a new and for me, better light. However, since it`s technically a DLC, it still shares the same issues as NSMBU. But still, its different approach feels, or rather felt refreshing. Overall, the game is fine and worth playing at least once. 6,6/10

Better than the original game, even though the controls for luigi give me lost levels flashbacks but the challenge makes it more enjoyable

If you’ve felt like some of the old-school magic has been missing from Super Mario games lately, let Luigi guide you through some of the most satisfying platform gaming ever designed.

NSLU it's a great refresh after nsmb2 and nsmbu, the shorter and harder levels are a perfect new mechanic, with GREAT level design. Mario fans always says that the New Series are just made of generic and Basic games, with no creativity, but seems like they forgot that this game exist, man tell me another dlc that was so good, they made an physical version to sell.
My favorite game :)

New Super Luigi U is a great idea from a Nintendo still trying new ways to make DLC and one that works really well for its purpose.

Nintendo has always lagged behind when it comes to online offerings, so the quality of New Super Luigi U is reassuring. It may recycle tons of content from the main game, but more Mario platforming action is rarely a bad thing. As a fan of New Super Mario Bros. U, I enjoyed these new twists on the decades-old format.

At $49.95, Luigi U is still pretty steep as far as DLC goes, and it’s probably not vital unless you really love the original game and just can’t get enough.

Too me, all platformer releases from Nintendo should be a direct feed to the best innovation the company can offer. This gets someway up the flagpole but falls short of hitting the top.

It's not a bad game by any stretch of the imagination: the level design is still a cut above so many of Nintendo's peers. But by the series' consistently high standards, it qualifies as a disappointment.

We all know that New Super Mario bros. games have gotten stale. New Super Mario bros. for the Nintendo DS has been very revolutionary when it comes to 2D Mario games. Super Mario Land 2 Golden Coins has come out in 1992 on the Game Boy. So yeah. In 2006 this was a big event. New Super Mario bros. Wii is the first 2D Mario game with simultaneous 4 player multiplayer. It was reusing the assets and game design of the previous entry, which was smart. However, New Super Mario bros. 2 and New Super Mario bros. U have no excuses. You could argue that he 3DS entry had a nice gimmick. The game was much better designed than the DS one. The Wii U one is in HD and has the best level design out of all of these enumerated before but the series has gone stale and these games have become BORING. HOWEVER! There is a game that, for me at least, carries the series. New Super Luigi U. The most fast-paced game in the series, the game with the BEST level design, the best controlling game thanks to Luigi's physics (floatier jumps and slippery stopping). it's been released as DLC for the Wii U Mario entry so it's shorter. Thankfully it's only 20 bucks and you can find it as a physical release too. I really enjoyed the game and i recommend it to everyone. However, it's the hardest 2D New Mario game, but if you try, you will succeed. Also you can now play the game too in the Switch port of the full game New Super Mario bros. U DELUXE. PLAY IT! IT IS WORTH YOUR TIME!!

Episodio divertente e colorato, giocabile anche in più persone. Un platform 2D che segue i classici episodi di Mario, con grafica colorata e ottima giocabilità.

Players can freely change between the New Super Luigi U and New Super Mario Bros. U stages. These Luigi-focused s... Read More
