New Super Mario Bros. Star (ReSTARted Studios)

Please do not make any edits to this page without clear permission from the original creator (except for small corrections e.g. grammar and spelling)
New Super Mario Bros. Star is a platformer game developed by ReSTARted Studios for the Nintendo Prism on the 8th of August, 2025 as part of a lineup of launch titles for Nintendo's new systems. Mario, Luigi, Toad, Toadette and Peach return as playable characters, while characters like Wario, Waluigi, Daisy and Rosalina debut as unlockable characters, a first in the Super Mario Bros. series. This also introduces night themes, which, although debuting in Super Mario Maker 2, this is the first game in the Super Mario Bros. series to have them. This also introduces shortcut worlds
== Story ==
On the Summer Solstice of the year, the Sunrise and Sunset (that control the night and day) stars pass each other in the sky, signifying the start of the cold seasons and the end of the warm seasons, as well as the start of longer nights and the end of longer days. Of course, Bowser decides to get his hands on them by a large-scale heist on them by using the world's space forces to bring them, or at least a fragment of them, to his lair. As always, our heroes find out and go on an adventure through 10 unique worlds to stop Bowser's evil plan.
After traversing through nine long worlds (while picking up some allies along the way), our heroes end up in space, where night and day vary heavily. Once they make it past the tenth final world, they meet up with Bowser for the final showdown. With the sunrise and sunset stars, he can bend night and day to his will, as seen in the final stage. Once they defeat bowser one last time at the final frontier of his space fleet, they return the Sunrise and Sunset stars to the sky, marking the end of the adventure.
== Gameplay ==
The gameplay highly resembles that of the other NSMB series games, with certain elements returning from other games and some debuting. Outposts debut here, with the same special properties as castles, fortresses, the like, but they're set out in the open. Nothing much changes - although star coins are replaced with Sun and Moon coins.
