New Super Mario Bros.3 (Switch)

New Super Mario Bros. 3 is a side-scrolling 2.5D action-adventure platform game for the Nintendo Switch. It is the sixth game in the New Super Mario Bros series and the first one to be released on the same console as another one. This game in the series acts as a direct sequel to New Super Mario Bros 2 and an indirect sequel to New Super Mario Bros. U.  Unlike the previous game in the handheld part of the series, this game is mostly based on the 3D Mario series in terms of design and gimmicks and unlike the other games, Nintendo EDP developed the game with a "player-first" mentality.  
==Story==
Its story takes place after the events of New Super Mario Bros. 2 and Super Mario Odyssey, but not the events of New Super Mario Bros. U. The story opens with Mario and Luigi fighting Bowser on the airship near the castle, Peach and the castle's staff are watching the fight and are getting a kick out of Bowser losing completly. However their fight is interrupted by the Broodals, who are seriously outraged by being left on the moon without a paycheck from Bowser. Bowser tells them to go away and let them continue. They refuse, grab the brothers from the arms up and shoot them out of the cannon to Bowser's Castle.

==Gameplay==
New Super Mario Bros. 3 is a platformer game which plays very similarly to that of the past New Super Mario Bros. games, especially New Super Mario Bros and New Super Mario Bros 2. However this game also incorporates gameplay from the 3D Mario titles, where the goal is to find Power Stars within a level. Players can choose which way they want to play before starting a level, "Time Snake" (the main important way to complete a level, through reaching the goal post, which has always been a staple in 2D Mario games) or "Scrambled Cheese" (the way that 3D Mario games have been completed, through finding Power Stars in order unlock new levels). The game's overall objective is to collect every single Power Star in the game through all three of the files. The reward for collecting all of the Power Stars is a new multiplayer/online mode.
