Newegg Pre-order

Good price, was expecting $49.99, appears to be MSRP and not a deal. Amazon and the like still have it at $59.99 however. Now for a release date...

time for adventure if old

 

[Wario64]

Kmart had this for $40 weeks ago. Not totally new news but seems to lead credence

 

[Neuromancer]

*nods sagely*

That is a good price.

$40 seems like the only price. It's basically an expansion pack to 3d world, right?

 

[@MUWANdo]

We still don't know enough about the game to be able to judge whether or not that's a reasonable price. Remember, they charged the same amount for Game & Wario.

 

[Team Top Hat]

Good price.

If it's consistent with the Mario 3D World levels, it's well worth the price.

 

[Gin]

get the feeling this is gonna be a short game..

 

[Mononoke]

Short or not, game looks amazing.

I agree, I'm glad Nintendo saw that they had something with the Captain Toad levels.

Great Price.

 

[Woffls]

£30 hopefully? Good price.

True, Wii Sports Club also was this price, but they were both mini game collections. This seems to be a full game as far as we know, was expecting similar price to DKTF so for now I think its priced good.

 

[JinjoUnchained]

Hope this doesn't mean that the game is short. Maybe not, since many puzzle games have a lot of levels because each level is shorter.

 

[rob305]

Lets hope this game doesnt last 2 hours

 

[tebunker]

$40 seems like the only price. It's basically an expansion pack to 3d world, right?

Uh, no. This is a fully fledged game based on the Captain Toad stages. I mean a full featured title.

It's just hard to do a lot of those puzzles without getting stale quick, and puzzle games rarely are $60 games.

I am actually hopeful that Amiibo, already announced to work, adds some neat some stuff, and they have DLC levels and bonus stuff

 

[ShadowElliot]

I'm alright with that price. Was expecting $50 at most.

 

[jholmes]

So in Canada, probably $55 then?

From what I've seen of it, it seem to be recycling an awful lot. I'm not saying the levels aren't all new, and they've done some graphical tweaks thanks in part to the restricted scope, but the gears and assets of 3D World seem to be heavily reused.

 

[sixteen-bit]

It'll prolly do well at that price

 

[BY2K]

45$.

 

[illmatic22]

Sweet, will get it for $32 thanks to best buy. Can't wait to play this, Captain Toad is my favorite thing about Super Mario 3D World

 

[Uncle Rupee]

That's pretty much what I expected it to be. Doesn't seem like the typical full price Nintendo release. Cheaper would be even better.

 

[Muzy72]

Would've preferred $29.99, same price as Luigi U, but if there's enough content I'll totally bite at $39.99.

Spoiler

I've been planning on getting this at launch regardless of price.

 

[ArkhamFantasy]

Awesome news, just like Sly Cooper.

 

[olimpia84]

Name the price, I'll be there day one regardless.

 

[DizzyCrow]

Would pay full price because it's probably packed with content, but I must say that it should be released on 3DS too the perspective stuff is perfect for 3D, well it goes for the next year list because my wallet can't get more empty this year with Wii U and 3DS releases.

 

[megabytecr]

Loved this game since revealed. Day 1

 

[Some Nobody]

*grumbles* Great. May have to buy this game this year, now.

Luigi U was pretty much all recycled assets but it's fine because a) the price was reasonable, and b) the amount of new content was comparable to a new game.

Nothing they've said or shown assures me that the same will be true of Captain Toad, and that's what bothers me. I know it's Nintendo and they don't ever tell you about anything until a week before release, but still, they need to start talking.

 

[Jea Song]

Lefted over Mario 3d world stages confirmed?

 

[AdanVC]

My most anticipated game. Glad to know it will be at that price. Just hoping for a release date this holiday and I'm all set!

 

[khaaan]

45$.

I knew I should have put E3 order in Amazon instead of Futureshop
Guess I'll just take comfort in the fact that it'll probably be a great game and that it's the only game (other than maybe Splatoon) that I ordered which probably won't get a lower price.

 

[Neuromancer]

Lefted over Mario 3d world stages confirmed?

Sure. If so they're probably the best left over Mario 3D World stages.

 

[chadboban]

Nice! God I want this game so badly, excited to see more locations. The Train level is my favorite so far.

 

[ShadowElliot]

The Treehouse Livestream for this game was fantastic!

 

[Team Top Hat]

On second thought...can I play this without the 4 hour Gamepad? =/

 

[Berordn]

Lefted over Mario 3d world stages confirmed?

If they're recycling cut content from 3D World they would've probably been Captain Toad levels anyway. It's not like you can stick him in 1-1 and actually finish the level.

 

[freethoughtbubble]

Niiiice. Was bought before, now it's very bought.

 

[Bgamer90]

Nice. Definitely getting this.

 

[Razma1]

Good birthday present at that price for my buddy's son he loves these kind of games.

 

[alf717]

Thanks OP. I put in my preorder.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

I would have gladly paid $60, so this is a nice surprise.

 

[Ridley327]

It seems like it uses it a fair bit, so I doubt you'll be able to use a Pro Controller.

 

[ohlawd]

yep

gogo Amazon with dat low price guarantee

 

[Cormano]

I like that price tag.
