Posted October 1, 2013 My thoughts, sorry if others don't agree. The Super Mario 3D Land level structure still hugely bothers me. Along with the 2D switch in general, like the Intro story scene only taking place on one plain. Visually the game looks beautiful!... although there's still something about the art style or character models I'm not liking. Great to see a lot of level and gameplay variety! ... although that large expensive level we saw... I'm not convinced, need to see more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 1, 2013 Looks incred. As thought to begin with. Never gonna please everyone. Can't wait to get me some Peachy playin goodness! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 1, 2013 The only thing I don't like is how we seem to be back to having each world as it's own predictable theme (Grass > Desert > Tropical > Snow etc etc). I hope that's not the case as I much preferred the randomness of 3D Land. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think its tragically disappointing that this is the first HD 3D Mario game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 1, 2013 ourney with Mario, Luigi and more to the Sprixie Kingdom in SUPER MARIO 3D WORLD! Bowser has kidnapped the Sprixie Princess, and it’s up to Mario and his friends to rescue her, racing to the Goal Pole at the end of various stages along the way! The Sprixie Kingdom contains all sorts of troublesome tricks and traps for our heroes to negotiate: transparent pipes to squeeze through, balls to aim and throw at enemies, and moving trains with roofs to ride! There may even be times when they need to clamber over a wall, just like a cat! With four-player local multiplayer and special Wii U GamePad controls, SUPER MARIO 3D WORLD is an all-new adventure that’s only available on Wii U! Mario’s range of headwear – and special abilities – continues to expand! Along with classics such as Tanooki Mario and Boomerang Mario, there are several new power-ups to discover. Pick up a Super Bell to turn Mario into a wall-climbing, claw-scratching cat, wear a Cannon Box on your head to launch projectiles, or collect a Double Cherry to generate a helpful clone so you can attack on the double! This adventure isn’t all about Mario, though! Luigi, Princess Peach and Toad are along for the ride too, and they each have different skills and abilities to offer. Mario offers the most balanced set of skills, while Luigi can leap the highest, Princess Peach can hover in mid-air and Toad is the fastest on the ground. Choose whichever character you like and use their unique skills to fully explore every corner of the courses! Up to four people can play together in SUPER MARIO 3D WORLD’s local multiplayer mode – work together to clear a stage or compete to see who can get the highest score at the end of each level! A variety of different controllers* can be used, so select the one which best suits your style of play. Uncover one of the many Stamps hidden throughout the Sprixie Kingdom and you can use it to customise the messages you post to Miiverse from within the game. Have fun collecting them all! http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=213521 Interesting stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 1, 2013 (edited) Based on the overworld, the "tropical" level is the same as the grass one Notice the doorway in the hedge? I hope there are plenty of secrets to discover which are not just unlocked by collecting coins. Edited October 1, 2013 by bryanee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 1, 2013 At first I thought it was a level based on the world maps which would have been kinda cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 1, 2013 That trailer was pretty sweet. The game suffers from a sense of duality, though. On the one hand, it looks fun as hell. On the other hand, something about it seems slightly off. To me anyway. I don't know what it is yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its the perspective, being constantly slanted and at that set angle which takes away its "3D" ness, ironically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 1, 2013 Thankfully, you can control the camera however you please If that's true for most levels that makes it literally ten times better IMHO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
