What's great about it: Graphics
What's not so great: Challenging
I have played Mario since the Gamecube and always enjoy it. The gameplay is challenging for this 59 y.o. gamer because of the screen size, but it is fun. When I play coop with my daughter it becomes even more fun. She can be very aggressive and she is very good at stealing coins! The graphics are stunning and, when I use my headphones, the sound is immersive. Have fun, we do!

Bought this game for our daughter for Christmas. The whole family plays it! Great 3D graphics the kids love. A little hard on the eyes if your an older adult, but there is an option on the 3Ds that lets you turn it off so its just regular.

What's great about it: New power-ups, challenging levels
What's not so great: Only available for 3DS
Nintendo does a fantastic job combining several different version of previous Mario games to bring this beautiful 3D world to life. While the game design, levels, enemies and power-ups are closer to the older NES and SNES Mario games, especially Mario 3 and Super Mario World, they combine the 3D style of Mario 64 and the Mario Galaxy series to give more depth and challenge to the Mario universe.

What's great about it: Game-play, graphics, overall everything
What's not so great: nothing really
SPOILERS AHEAD!This has to be one of my favorite Mario games. This game mixes Super Mario 64 3D and 2D Super Mario Brothers into one game. The story line is straightforward and is simple. Don't let anyone say that this game is very simple because it is not. I do have to admit that the first 8 worlds are very simple and can be beaten in a couple hours. But after you beat these, you get another set of worlds that are pretty challenging, and will take awhile to beat. You will also be able to play as Luigi when you save him from the castle. This game has excellent graphics for the 3DS with very creative worlds and well designed characters. Star coins add to the challenge and game-play. This game is a great buy and should be taken into consideration if you have or are thinking about buying a 3DS

What's great about it: Decent, Fun, Extensive, 3D, Blend of New SMB and Galaxy
What's not so great: Nothing in my opinion
Super Mario 3D Land feels like it should of been a launch title, in a good way. Especially since the 3DS had a slow start, this game is perfect for the 3DS and a highly recommended game. I won't lie, the controls feel like New Super Mario Bros. for the DS while the looks in graphics look like it was completely based from that of Super Mario Galaxy. Before I even got this game, I was worried about the timer since most Mario games like Mario 64, Sunshine, and Galaxy don't have timers unless it was on a certain mission. The timer is actually not a big problem, and some levels actually include slowly rotating stop watches, get a blue watch and add 10 more seconds to the timer, get a green watch and you add 100 more seconds to the timer. I have only minor complaints about this game, one is the gyro controls when you get inside of a cannon or look through the binoculars, you can use the circle pad to aim but you're unable to turn off the gyro controls so it can get in the way commonly. Another minor complaint, the game feels like the game is all for the Tanooki power-up, you commonly come across it a lot, it's not a bad thing but you may get tired of dressing up as a raccoon dog, or maybe not depends who you are. After you beat the game you enter into new levels, the "Special Worlds" that Nintendo usually includes in most Mario Platformers much like Super Mario World, or a more recent title "New Super Mario Bros. Wii," only this time it's not one world it's 8 Special Worlds counter-parting from the original 8 worlds you play through. That's pretty much the game, I recommend this game, if you're still not sure then at least try the game either at a friends house or if a retail store is allowing demos of this game.

What's great about it: Simple gameplay, brings back lots of Mario history in one game, sounds carefully chosen by Nintendo
What's not so great: if you are an advanced gamer, the game will not last you more than 2 weeks for the simplicity of it, release date
This is probably one of the most anticipated Mario games since seen on the E3 this year. Many question why it wasn't released when the 3DS launched, which is unknown, but I can say it was worth the wait.
The game I feel has a mixture of two games, New Super Mario Bros for the DS and Super Mario Galaxy for Wii. The worlds are simple enough for any age group to go through, though if you have a young one I recommend the game guide to help them get through parts they get stuck on. Otherwise the game itself has a lot more to offer. Old suits like the Tanooki suit, Boomerang Suit, gives Mario the power to get through the levels easier, for long time players you will feel a bit nostalgic.
There are also extra levels after beating the main story, which extends the life of the game. For long time fans, I got through the game within two weeks from release date. You guys might be able to do so quickert but its not going to last in your library for too long.
Replay value is average since after you unlock everything, there's not much you can really do.
If you are a first time 3DS owner, I recommend getting the flame red 3DS bundle with 3D land since it will make a great gift for any occasion.
Another recommendation I make is Mario Kart 7, a great follow up to Super Mario 3D land. It's release is this Sunday, and is the successor of the popular Mario Kart DS. It has more features and encourage you to look at my review for it once I post it.
Hope this was helpful and ill be reviewing more games soon.

What's great about it: Graphics, gameplay, 3D effects, Streetpass, Saving images to Photo Album, the "Second Quest"
What's not so great: The only thing really missing is a 2-player cooperative mode (a minor gripe)
Ever since "Super Mario 64" came out, I'd always wished that Nintendo would make a game like this: a 3D Mario built with the classic 2D elements in mind (e.g., get to the flagpole, lots of '?' Blocks, etc.). Not only am I quite pleased with this title, I would rank it among the best of the series. Add to this the challenging (but not overly-difficult) gameplay, the simple (but helpful) Streetpass features, and the harder "Second Quest", and you're nearing Mario Perfection!

What's great about it: Beautiful 3D environments and gameplay.
What's not so great: They didn't release this game when the 3DS first came out.
This is the greatest 3DS title to hit shelves since Ocarina of Time. The developers did a fantastic job of showing off just what the 3DS is capable of doing and it looks FANTASTIC. The music is great and as a long-time gamer I appreciate the retro style they took with this one.
It's a little more linear and has aspects of the newer mario games and great bits from the first hits like the Tanooki suit, the air ships and even some of my favorite tracks from the earlier games.
Sure the gameplay is a bit on the easy side, but it IS a kid-oriented game after all. This game is definitely worth adding to your collection of you own a 3DS and will be the first of many major titles for the system. I look forward to the new Mario Kart and Paper Mario as well as Kid Icharus and a few other gems!
