Am I the only one who doesn't like the soundtrack to the NSMB games? They have that sound effect that sounds like someone singing and it just annoys me for some reason.

I don't really care for it, either.

it's probably partly because the ds wasn't a graphical powerhouse + isn't meant to be displayed this blown up but man this game is kinda ugly looking for a non-spinoff mario game

Donkey Kong and Catherine are the standout runs so far. At least watch the Catherine run, it's a winner.

They keep up that same level of commentary for the entire run, too. I think there were maybe two or three autoscroller levels where they had donations read but other than that, they had something to say about every part of the game.

That's how it was in 2015 too and it made it one of the best speedruns to watch.

I remember really liking the 2015 run, and Trihex doing the first run of the marathon and being super on point the whole run. It is crazy the difference between runners that can commentate and play at a high level at the same time and some of the other folks who cant.

It did. They just decided to call it 2 for whatever reason even though Wii came out years before it and U came out only a couple months after it.

They call it 2 because there hadn't been a New series game on handheld since the first NSMB

Yeah the music is nothing to write home about, if you heard NSMB Wii music then you heard NSMB2
