Despite the fact that Super Mario Bros. Wonder shuttered fan-favorite playable characters, it has still managed to topple all previous installments of the franchise, especially the classic 2D games Nintendo fans love. According to NintendoEurope social media, Super Mario Bros. Wonder is now the fastest-selling Super Mario title of all time in Europe. The game, which was released on October 20, managed to achieve this feat in only three days post its release on the Nintendo Switch. It also ranked second on the UK charts right after it was released.

The tweet by Nintendo of Europe comes with an image that shows the stellar reviews that Super Mario Bros. Wonder has received from major gaming websites and reviewers. It showcases multiple 5-star ratings for the game, as well as an above 90% score from each outlet. It also features the Elephant Mario character emerging from a tunnel, which adds to the fun. In a short time, the tweet has received more than 100,000 views, with comments pouring in from different parts of the world. Several fans, who consider Super Mario Wonder a fitting farewell to the Nintendo Switch, have also speculated that this title will break records in other parts of the world soon enough.

It is interesting to see that even though gaming has reached an entirely new level with mind-bending graphics, surreal gameplay, and unbelievable storylines, classic style games like Super Mario Bros. Wonder continue to grab the attention of gamers old and new. While everything about this installment is being lauded by fans, Nintendo may need to tweak the Super Mario Wonder crown co-op feature, which may be a source of frustration for people looking to play with others.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is available now for the Nintendo Switch.
