Just what the title says.

But not Kazuma Kiryu? That man can be talked into anything.

As someone who's never played a SMB game, I've always been curious from the outside looking in. But all the negative reviews on here seem very "inside baseball," constantly referencing the other SMB games (which I have no understanding of/familiarity with). Can someone explain why this game should not be my first SMB game?...

Sega, do it.

is this a mobile port or something? this is nothing like classic monkey ball. I don't want to play a game where I can't do awesome strats or fall off for not gitting gud.
