March of the Minis
Having played about half of the game so far, I must say it's a very good game, but I see why IGN ranked it Decent (7.0). There are a few control flaws (Minis bumping into each other is an issue, stopping a Mini instead of making it jump is sometimes an issue as well). However, it is a game with numerous, intuitive levels that take about 1-2 minutes to complete each. Lasting Appeal is very high: Gold Stars + Construction Zone + Wi-Fi = 30-40 hours, at least.

Premature Review
Presentation: 8.5 - Could have done a bit better on the menu.
Graphics: 9.0 - Clear graphics in and out of game.
Sound: 7.0 - Mario games' sound is never outstanding, but decent. So it's decent here. :P
Gameplay: 8.8 - Few control flaws, otherwise intuitive.
Lasting Appeal: 9.8 - I'll be spending quite a bit of time getting Gold Stars on all 80 levels (mind you, that includes the DK battles...)

8.9

Yup, she's in the game. But no she doesn't want Mario's love.
 
It's really a different kind of game altogether. Unlike platforming, this is an action puzzle where you direct the Mini Marios with the stylus, and you never directly play as Mario himself. If you ever played Mario and Wario, it's like a more advanced version.
