    I feel as though the Penguin Suit is just there because of the NSMBWii hype. The Sheel Suit from NSMB(DS) is way more fun.

    I feel the cape beats the raccoon suit. I always found it more fun, and I could fly farther.

    I also found the hammer bro suit loads of fun, but they left it out.

      agreed, you can do a lot more with the cape, its like an upgraded version. although you could skip entire levels by flying so maybe its too good.

        The cape's problem is, it's bloody hard to manoeuvre, while the Racoon Suit is easy to use, and like you said, the cape throws out the game's balance.

          eh, the cape just takes a little practice learning how to do the "bobbing" thing to stay in the air is all. downside is ppl got TOO good at it.

    oh come on. Tanooki suit > Raccoon suit. its just like Raccoon but you can turn into a statue, meaning invincibility and the smash attack. who cares if it made him look sillier, more features = better.

    another suit i would have liked to see is from SMB3 (that game had so many good power ups). it was the Hammer Bros suit, in which you could throw hammers and hold down to turn invincible basically. i dont know of anything that could hurt you when pressing down except a fall death, plus you could do it forever unlike Tanooki which you only got about 3 seconds of invincibility at a time.

    and how about Mega Mushroom? or is that not considered a suit? my favorite Mario power up of all time since its pretty much like enabling God Mode.

    Tanuki ftw. Cape, penguin, and bee are up there.

    I persoanlly liked the hammer suit, that was pro. But I can't at all recall the boot suit past one part of one level.

      thats because the Boot was only ever in that 1 section of that level.
