Lol you beat me, I got 407
Pro-tip: Shy Guys and other foes will spot you because of the light being on in certain levels.

Tilt + touch don't work Nintendo, every time I touch the screen the camera jumps so I have to realign it with right stick. Why isn't there an option to turn off tilt? And did any of the reviews mention this?
Yep, I just realized this while trying to get the bonus objective on level 6. Very cool.

That tilt thing is making me mad and im not even playing the game yet
I'm not a massive toad fan or anything, but I am a massive Nintendo fan, and so far this is pushing the right buttons. Mind you, I felt the captain toad levels were the weakest part of the magnificent package that was Super Mario 3D World, but in the absence of another brilliant 3D platformer, I'll take whatever Nintendo design brilliance I can get.
I agree the lack of options for tilt is stupid, but I'm honestly surprised it's bothering anyone. I have set the gamepad down in my lap and yet to encounter a problem with the controls because I have the gamepad stationary. With as bulky of a controller as it is I don't know why one would want to hold it upright anyway.
They should come out with a belt accessory that secures the controller to your lap so it doesn't move and fuck up the camera constantly.
Yeah it's january 2nd, I messed up (twice). Will fix later
I fixed it earlier but then people pointed out that it still said 2014, so when I went to fix that I forgot to change the 3rd to 2nd again lol (didn't save the file last time).
You'd think I would know the release date of my own region lol.
OT: jelly levels are rising with everyone playing the game already ;^;
There are close to 80 levels.
So it's taken me an hour and thirty minutes to beat the first 11 levels and the first "bonus" level
. I've 100%ed them all except 11 (where the hell do I get all those coins? There's some at the top of the level on that ledge that I can't even get to, but that still wouldn't give me 70...). So I don't think the game will take me less than 10 hours particularly, and maybe even a little longer? Considering I've heard 6-7 hours or even 3-4 hours, I'm a little confused.
ie Super Mario 3D World/
Not everyone goes for 100% completion, especially the reviewers. My guess that 3-4 hours is if you just speed through, which seems quite pointless.
Yeah, getting 100% is the appeal to me. No idea why anyone wouldn't do that.

Welcome to The Legend of Zelda's problems, in games not containing Roc's cape or feather.

This looks pretty fun tbh. But why does the NA cover have to be so ugly in comparison to the EU one? NoA strikes again...
Yeah but you can roll which makes up for that.

That's not a bad idea, gonna have to change the way I play though which is lying in bed while keeping the pad on my tummy.

Is anyone here not bothered by the controls?
I've had no trouble with them. I just hold the controller like normal (resting on my lap), except for the minecart stages.
I've played through the first book, almost 100%, in a little over 2 and a half hours. Nothings been too difficult, except for some of the challenges. But I've enjoyed the variety and the visuals especially are a step above 3D World. The lighting is very nice and the character models appear to be more fleshed out.
I do wish some pf the levels did more with the concepts that they introduce, as they end a little too quickly, but this is only the first book so far, so I'll see how they go. There have been some real standout moments though, like the first double cherry level, the snowy train level, and the final boss level. So far the creativity is certainly not lacking.

This game's release completely snuck up on me for some reason, as I have just finished updating my Wii U and buying the game. Though now I'm tired, I'll get to playing it as soon as I wake up.
Been so excited for this game.

I would love to know this also, c'mon gaf help the rest of us out.
I do not want to wait until january the 2nd, is there any way i can play this before then.
Sucks to hear that you can't switch off the gyro camera, that's going to make the game seem way harder for my little brother, he can't stop moving the controller when he is playing.
I'm amazed that nintendo have forgotten how small children play video games.

love everything but the fact that you can't just turn off the gyro in the pad. It was ok at first but now it just moves my camera from where I want it occasionally because I adjusted the way I was sitting or some other movement.
Btw way I'd didn't see a thread for it, but what is the system update about, just stability/ behind the scenes things?

I feel very fortunate to have had this game early for a preview piece, it's utterly adorable. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I have so far.
It fixed issues people were having with Youtube replay uploads from Mario Kart, I think.

I really REALLY want this but I can't justify buying it now with the backlog I have...then again, DDP ends soon so maybe I should...bah!

I'm finding myself just wandering and chillin' in various places. No timer is something I miss, I like to watch the animations and timing of everything.
I always wish that in 3D World I could at least have chosen to remove the timer from levels post game or something.

Well I finished episode 1 100% in about 3 hours. Love the game a lot, it has so many cute touches and gives the perfect level of semi-challenging puzzle with various Mario mechanics thrown in as well. Going to put it down for now and play Tales of Borderlands before I have to go to work, but I'm really looking forward to doing the Toadette levels already.

Correct, no timer.

Hopefully I can get this game later this month, it seems like a fun little distraction. The Captain Toad levels were always pretty fun.

You could answer your question by reading the OP!

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
I bet you have no problem paying $60 for Ubisoft games since they have so much content.
