Violence, fear, nudity?
No problem. No violence, no fear, no nudity. Mario jumps on enemies as always.
Level of language used
Very little text. Menus with icons.
Positive message
Princess Peach gets kidnapped once again. A damsel in distress, once again. However Toadette (female character) can join the adventure and can turn into Peachette, who looks like Peach. Well it doesn’t make much sense, but it’s just to say that it’s not always the female characters who get kidnapped and the male characters who will deliver them.
Minimum reading level required
Very little text. Menus with icons.
Additional costs ?
No extension, everything is included.
Minimum level of execution on the controller required
The more players evolve in the adventure, the more difficult the progression will be. For neophytes, it takes a little time to measure on which platforms it can jump and land.
Principle of the game
Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Toadette will deliver Princess Peach captured by the Dragon Bowser. They will travel more than 80 levels in 2 dimensions by jumping from platform to platform. Many enemies, obstacles and objects will find themselves in their path.

Conclusion
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe is a great game, suitable for the whole family. It is of course more appropriate to guide and explain to the children the mechanics of the game. But otherwise they will learn and discover for themselves without any problems.
Note that if you have already made this game on Nintendo’s previous console, the Wii U, it is not useful to buy this version. The additions are too small to be considered Deluxe.
