 [[File:NSMBU Intro 1.png|thumb|left|upright=1.4|The Mario Bros. and Toads about to be hit by the [[Mecha Hand]].]]
-[[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yellow Toad (character)|Yellow Toad]], and [[Blue Toad (character)|Blue Toad]] are with [[Princess Peach]] in [[Peach's Castle]] dining together. [[Bowser]] and the [[Koopalings]] suddenly arrive in their [[Airship]]s, with the former sporting a [[Mecha Hand]] that smashes and launches the brothers and the Toads away from the castle. Mario and his friends crash into the [[Acorn Tree]], launching [[Super Acorn]]s through the area. They then tumble out of the tree, passing by a [[Bubble Baby Yoshi]] and [[Balloon Baby Yoshi]], and they then look into the horizon to see Bowser beginning a siege on Princess Peach's Castle, setting the Mario Bros. and the Toads to go on a new adventure and save Princess Peach.

-As the game progresses, the view occasionally shifts to Peach's Castle, showing the flags being replaced by Bowser's flags (after [[Tilted Tunnel]]), and the castle being surrounded by a thin tornado-like cloud that is made thicker by Magikoopa's magic (after [[Stoneslide Tower]]), entirely obscuring the castle (after [[Giant Skewer Tower]] or [[Freezing-Rain Tower]]). Mario, Luigi, Yellow Toad, and Blue Toad also encounter Bowser's forces, including the Koopalings, [[Boom Boom]], [[Kamek|Magikoopa]], and [[Bowser Jr.]], who occasionally attacks the heroes with his father's airship. All of them are defeated, and Bowser Jr. causes the airship to crash after making the mechanical hand punch through it. After reaching Peach's Castle and defeating Bowser, the group moves onward, but Bowser Jr. appears and urges Magikoopa to spread his magic across the area. After heading to the castle exterior, Mario and the others see Peach in a tower. Before they can save her, she is locked inside the tower and Bowser appears, now at a giant size, alongside Bowser Jr. Eventually, Bowser is defeated and Bowser Jr. flees. The character that defeated Bowser gets to Peach and bows down to her, and is then kissed by her, to their shock and delight, as the clouds surrounding the castle disappear, restoring it to its former state.

-Outside the castle, the Koopalings and Bowser Jr. are fleeing on the airship as Bowser recovers. Noticing the escaping airship, he climbs up onto one of the castle towers and leaps onto the ship, but his additional weight causes it to plummet into a hill nearby; they then fly away hanging onto Bowser Jr.'s [[Junior Clown Car]] while Mario and Blue Toad watch. They then turn back to the others, who are cheering, with Mario delivering a final victory pose.

-''New Super Mario Bros. U'' is a platform game which plays very similarly to that of past ''[[New Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|New Super Mario Bros.]]'' games, especially ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', with the return of the 4-player multiplayer functioning identically to the [[Wii]] game, while most of the elements and design found in the game make heavy reference to ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Many other gameplay elements from the Wii game, such as the [[Super Guide]], [[Enemy Course]]s, and the bubble function, also return. In certain modes, players can play as their [[Mii]]s, including the first player, who can also choose whoever to play as. Power-ups, like the [[Fire Flower]], [[Ice Flower]], [[Penguin Suit]], [[Propeller Mushroom]], and the [[Mini Mushroom]] return. The game also features a new power-up, the [[Super Acorn]], which gives Mario and company a [[Flying Squirrel Mario|Flying Squirrel form]], which lets them glide and grab on to walls.

The game also features a new power-up, the [[Super Acorn]], which gives Mario and co. a [[Flying Squirrel Mario|Flying Squirrel form]], which lets them glide and grab on to walls.
 ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' features two main controller options: single player using the [[Wii U#Wii U GamePad|Wii U GamePad]], and single-player or multiplayer using [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remotes]] and/or [[Wii U#Wii U Pro Controller|Wii U Pro Controllers]]; the player can switch controllers at any point between the GamePad and a Wii Remote or Pro Controller by pausing the game, either in a level or on the world map, and selecting the "Change Controller" option. The game supports up to five simultaneous players, with up to four being able to play as the characters with a Wii Remote or Wii U Pro Controller, and are able to drop in and out at any point while in a stage by pressing {{button|wiiu|Plus}} on the GamePad and selecting a character, or on the map by pausing and selecting "Number of Players". Another player is able to use the Wii U GamePad in what is known as [[Boost Mode]]. In Boost Mode, the GamePad player can assist the other players by placing blocks for them to stand on and stunning enemies. Boost Mode can be used at any point when playing with one of the other controllers; when playing with just the GamePad, it supports {{wp|Off-TV Play}}.

 The first update to the game added [[Miiverse]] support. With Miiverse functionality enabled, players can read each others' posts on the world map by viewing the map; when not viewing the map a Miiverse post is indicated by a red balloon, generally near a stage, and can be hidden by pressing {{button|wiiu|A}}; when on the World Map while using Boost Mode, the GamePad player can scroll across the map on the GamePad screen and view Miiverse posts. At certain times throughout gameplay, such as when the player dies several times or reaches the end of a course in a specific way (collecting all the Star Coins, clearing in a certain amount of time, clearing without taking damage, etc.), they are given a prompt to post a message to Miiverse. Players can also see Miiverse posts after they die in a stage. Miiverse settings can be changed at any point on the world map by selecting the pencil and envelope icon on the bottom right of the pause menu.
+The sound is in stereo, with no support for 5.1 surround.
 ===Controls===
 [[File:NSMBU Boost Mode 3.png|thumb|upright=1.4|Perspective of gameplay, featuring four players controlling the characters with Wii Remotes while a fifth player uses the GamePad in Boost Mode.]]
 Like ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', the Wii Remote is the primary controller for the game, allowing players to shake the controller to perform a [[Spin Jump]], dismount [[Yoshi]], and pick up objects. However, players can also play the game normally with the Wii U GamePad (single-player only) or the Wii U Pro Controller (after the 1.3.0 update). In the case of the Wii U Pro Controller, actions that require motion control on the Wii Remote and Wii U GamePad are replaced with button pressing, as the Wii U Pro Controller lacks motion controls.
-Unlike ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', this game does not feature [[Wii#Nunchuk|Nunchuk]] support.

-Unlike the previous ''New Super Mario Bros.'' titles, where the worlds are separated like in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' has a seamless world map with areas named after different foods and beverages, similar to ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Like ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', the worlds include [[Toad House]]s and [[Enemy Course]]s that players encounter in the game, though only red and green Toad Houses return. The music changes instruments throughout the world map similar to [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]]. Though, like the previous games, there are [[Tower]]s, [[Castle]]s, and [[Ghost House]]-related levels within each part of the world. And like ''Super Mario World'', the worlds are connected jointly.

-[[Yoshi (species)|Green Yoshi]]s make a return, acting like in ''New Super Mario Bros Wii''. Green is the only color available for Yoshis that the players ride on, unlike ''New Super Mario Bros.

Like in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', Yoshi cannot leave the courses that he appears in.
-''New Super Mario Bros. U'' also features the return of [[Baby Yoshi]]s, having been absent from the ''Super Mario'' series since their debut in ''Super Mario World''. The game features three differently-colored Baby Yoshis, each one with a special ability. They differ from the adult Green Yoshi in terms of gameplay. Being babies, they cannot be ridden, so characters must carry them throughout the levels. Baby Yoshis also instantly eat almost any enemy that is in front of them. Unlike in ''Super Mario World'', however, Baby Yoshis do not grow into adults after eating several enemies. Two types of Baby Yoshis found on the overworld can be taken into any course, with the exception of [[Fortress]]es, [[Airship]]s, and [[Castle]]s.

Unlike Coin Rush, the stages scroll automatically, meaning the player has to keep up with the stage, which speeds up every time they collect coins.

 The game has been praised for its balanced gameplay and challenge mode, with IGN's Rich George describing it as "the best thing to come to Mario's world since 3D", while criticizing it as not pushing the [[Wii U]]'s visuals and audio potential. He also stated, "though it doesn't necessarily redefine Nintendo's iconic hero, it still manages to capture the sense of carefree adventure that many of us felt as kids." He also criticized the game's "weak graphics and audio, plus the return of the irritating chaotic, bouncy multiplayer mode." He praised the progressing difficulty in the game and the additional difficulty of Challenge Mode.

 |align="left"|"''It's difficult to find freshness or brilliance in a 2D landscape. Mario's world is now three decades old. That would seem to suggest new territory is scarce, and in some ways the formulaic New Mario series had come to reinforce that fear. But New Super Mario Bros. U demonstrates there's not just life left in this type of game, but that it can be modern and nostalgic at the same time. Nintendo's approach here strikes a great balance in all areas, ranging from its difficulty to design to enemies and bosses. And for everything the basic Story Mode does right – and that's a considerable amount – the Challenge Mode will be remembered as a key moment in the life of the New Mario series, where Nintendo realized it didn’t have to sacrifice the core gamer’s experience at the expense of a more casual audience. This is how Mario can and will appeal to everyone.''"

 *''[[Super Mario World]]'': The world map is connected again and a ghost ship, similar to the [[Sunken Ghost Ship]] level, appears in this game. The Warp Pipes have a similar structure to the ones in ''Super Mario World''. Most of the worlds are named after food again. Some of the world's features are similar to those found in [[Dinosaur Land]] (e.g. Acorn Plains having jagged mountains or Soda Jungle being one-third based on the [[Forest of Illusion]]). ''Super Mario World'' has the exact same number of exits that this game has: 96.
 *''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'': The name of the [[Challenge Mode (New Super Mario Bros. U)|Challenge]] "[[Spin Jump, Get Dizzy]]" is a reference to that of a level from this game, [[Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy]]. Bubble Baby Yoshi's abilities maybe a reference to how Yoshi can shoot bubbles in this game including how the player can bounce off the bubbles. [[Kamek]] uses his magic to enhance Boom Boom's attacks, just as he did with this game's bosses. He also grows Bowser to a large size, similar to the final fight with [[Baby Bowser]].
+*''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'': Depressions form on [[Cloud Lift]]s when the player stands on them, like in this game.
 *''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'': The [[Red Shell]] and [[Green Shell]] use their artworks from this game, but the Green Shell's artwork is mirrored.
 *''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'': The title is the sequel to this game. Many graphical, audial, and technical assets were reused from this game. Kamek growing Bowser with magic could also be a reference to this game's final fight, where similar events transpired.
