Really good review over at Game Forward of Super Mario Bros. on the Wii. There were hopes that this would be a really accessible little game, but it sounds like Nintendo have missed a simple opportunity (again) to include classic controller compatibility.

On a slightly different note - a bit more on the history of the rewind feature seen in Forza 3 and apparently first in "Grid" for a racing game:
