It's a little strange how in this game despite the world's having clear themes the levels don't really adhere to them

Super Mario 3D World |OT| Next-gen starts right meow!

I understand that the trick isn't new but finding the right place to do it is what amazes me. I tend to just think about completing the level that I never think of ways to get 1ups. I think I was always in the 40s range throughout the entire game until post game.
Nope...atlease not on purpose in super mario bros wii since it was the only way to play as luigi in single player.
I'm thankful, NSMB's world tropes had worn thin by the second game. Not seeing the same backdrop in more than two levels is a refreshing change of pace.

I've done it a couple of times in DKCR (rocket barrel stages) and a couple of times in 3D World where I was either not enjoying myself or was too eager to move on to the next stage.

I finished the first two worlds and I'm kinda underwhelmed so far to be honest. It's fun I guess, but I dunno. I'm not really feeling it. Feels very....standard. Honestly this far in I was having more fun with Sonic Lost World. Of course the quality in that game went on to fall off a cliff, and I'd imagine this game is only going to get better. 3D Land took a good while to get interesting too so I'm hoping it's the same here.

You answered yourself. It does exactly as you say.
This has been the case with every post-Sunshine Mario game, honestly.
World 3 you'll start to see improvements and by World 4 you'll definitely be "feeling it."
Of course, in my opinion you really need to be going for 100% from the outset. So hopefully you're actively seeking out those green stars and stamps from the get-go.
Then again, YMMV.

That shell trick has been around since the original SMB.
See my post above.
I haven't had a single mii in my game
They only appear on playthroughs after you've beat the level

So when can we expect the game to hit the european eshop? Midnight?
I´m waiting for it too...
Hopefully. I want to at least start the download so it finishes until tomorrow morning.

I think they only appear in stages you've already beaten. You don't get given the option to turn Miiverse functionality on until World 2 either, so that could be it.

Where do you buy it? eshop or via downloadcode? GAME maybe?
Yup.
I want more slot machine chances! Is there any way to play them again after the game ends? I'm already in world 6 and have never gotten 3 symbols in a row.

I would almost be fine figuring it out myself, but considering I apparently only get one chance per world, I am sad about it!

Completed world 5 with all stamps, green stars and flags. Loved the world 5 boss. Some of the lighting is gorgeous.

I think if you go back and play a couple of levels in a world you have already beaten the slot machine appears again.
I manage to get cherries pretty easily, something like hitting a block on every third beat of the music (I think it's the third, only played a few of them so far) will get you a cherry.
Easily the funniest family on the holidays and video game moment of my 2013 thus far:
Get to the "Super Galaxy" level in World Star and after admiring how much "actual fuck" EAD Tokyo could throw at 3 out of 4 of my siblings and myself, we complete the level and "holy shit, Rosalina's just watching us guys, what's happening?!!!" After hitting the flagpole and ending the level, we get the usual prompts then suddenly the bonus "You can now play as Rosalina" message pops up.
A fraction of a second later, my two sisters and I pull out batteries out of our Wiimotes in a moment of weird inspiration trying to reset our characters on the map screen to play her. My brother who's currently player one though? He just waits for everyone to de-sync then hops into a level, selects Rosalina with no one around to claim her and starts the next level.
We all fucked up. Also, putting Rosalina in this game was a wonderful decision for this moment alone. :lol

Hmm, I discovered a new move. After a stomp attack, press A immediately and Mario fuse into the air.
I didn't know I could do that. Any specific use for it? I feel like some moves in this game are not really a necessity, they are not many moments when they are required from the player.

Has anyone else gotten their own Mii as a ghost in a level? Was very surreal watching it do what I had done my first time through the level.
It's not a bad way to get some air quickly, but generally this move can bail you out if you try to butt stomp an enemy and miss.
Bought via GAME. Downloading now! 1 hour left.
Same here, just waiting for Game to deliver the code first though!

Check your mails. Mine was there in seconds after the payment.
I get them a lot.
Found out a new trick for
Done with my Luigi only run now, only got the gamepad levels and final two stages left with him. Gonna run through with Peach next I guess.
Hisstocrats and the boss rush stage. I was using Luigi and Tanooki suit, went right next to them and spin jumped. It's enough to hit one and bounce over and hit the other. Makes it go by really fast.

I've never had to go online for anything...any hints I need usually show up in the post level Miiverse posts.
Not exactly, it seems to be missing the character select voice for whatever reason. I forget if the voices are missing in normal gameplay though.
Correct iirc. There's two stamps in the final world though.
Yeah I've gotten mine with a time on it, I guess I'm the fastest ghost it picked at the time out of my friends or something.

The game does get substantially better. After World 3 I was being blown away on a regular basis. I'm just surprised to see anyone can like any part of Sonic Lost World over this game. What a tremendous letdown that game was.

Has anyone attempted 5-6 with 4 players? For reference that's cake walk flip the level where jumping causes the blue/red platforms to switch. The only LP I've seen attempt it with 4 people just had 3 bubble and did it solo. I played the level with a buddy and it was incredibly difficult with two people.
Word
cat suit definitely has some risk/reward to it... i've dived to my doom many-a-time.
Oh definitely lol, same here. Especially agonizing when you end up watching your character dive just barely beyond 3-4 platforms and right to their death. I've facepalm'd a lot due to that. XD
Best. EVER. I swear I was crying laughing for at least the first four tries.
