It being a Mario game, however, you shouldn’t expect a bog-standard rhythm action experience. In addition to the Nintendo-centric soundtrack, you will even find yourself stomping on a Goomba’s head or two using your own foot. How’s that for interactivity?
Typical DDR games feature wide selections of real-world pop tunes, a range of difficulty settings and little else, but Mario Mix has a full story and over a dozen mini-games to unlock and enjoy. The story itself is a bit weak, but it does mean that the background and set-up for each stage is different, and a treat for those who can’t get enough of Nintendo’s special little fat guy.
