Super Mario 3D World (Nintendo Wii U)

Best: Four-player co-op

Between Mario Party and Mario Kart, the series has never been lacking in multiplayer experiences, but there hadn’t been one in a 3D platformer before Super Mario 3D World hit the Wii U in 2013. Up to four players can band together as Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad to jump through some exceptionally polished Super Mario levels. It captures the chaos of New Super Mario Bros. Wii’s co-op design in a 3D framework. It’s a blast…

Worst: Four-player co-op:

…but it’s also a nightmare. Have you ever been minding your own business navigating a level only for one of your co-op partners to pick you up and throw you off a ledge? Have you ever tried to coordinate with a group of friends who cannot, for the life of them, follow instructions without picking a fight or griefing you in one way or another? I’m not talking about Overwatch, I’m talking about Super Mario 3D World. Choose your coop partners carefully, friends, as they will color your 3D World experience.
