Okay this may be a stupid question but: What's your favorite level?
To me it's 6-2 "Spooky Seasick Wreck" (at the moment). The music, the rain, the atmosphere´...so gooood.

78 seconds. I think that's about as fast as I'm ever going to be on this stage.
4-3, Beep Block Skyway. I love all music themed levels in videogames.

Ok, I'm starting to make progress on Champion Road. The Chargin Chuck section basically down muscle memory now, I'm finally getting past the beat-block section with some regularity and the next section isn't too bad as long as you don't make any stupid mistakes.
I seriously love this.
Also I'm not sure why, but I think Switchboard Falls (the autumn level) might be my favourite course. Something about the music, the level design and stlyle, coupled with perfect difficulty makes it really shine. Plus it was the 1st time a Green Star was really difficult to reach.
On the flipside, Shiftier Boo Mansion and that Savannah level are probably my least favourite. Mansion really frustrated me and Savannah was really bland and boring.

4 posts at once?
Anyhoo finally ordered a wii u and am now waiting for best buy to ship it.
Yeah, I should have just put them all in one post. I guess I was catching up on the thread and just got excited!
Anyway, you're going to love your Wii U. What else are you getting with it? I assume this is the WWHD or M/L bundle?
Great choices. I really loved both of those, SSW for the atmosphere and BBS for just the fun musicality of it. I'm really not sure what mine would be yet. I really like 4-5, Spike's Lost City. Great atmosphere and really reminds me of a SMG (or was it SMG2?) level. I can't think of which one exactly, but there was one really similar to it in one of those games.
Bowser-1, Spiky Spiky Bridge is pretty awesome. The rain is incredible looking
P.S. denshuu, I accept your challenge! I'll see if I can beat your time.
M/L. Figured I'd get those 2 out the way...and to hopefully get a more enjoyable experience than nsmb2. It was fun but way too easy lol.

Just getting started on World 6.
Still loving it. Still smiling. Still Nintendo.

You're in for a treat, with NSMBU Challenge Mode in particular. I'm still working on some of those. I'm not sure I would recommend playing NSMBU/NSLU at the same time as 3DW, it might make those games seem like they have a lot less to them. I hope you will be trying Pikmin 3 and Nintendo Land. Toki Tori 2+, The Cave, and Bit.Trip Runner on the eShop are awesome too.
No worries im easy to please as long as I'm enjoying the game.
Good deal. Both games are great anyways.

i have 5 shiny stars on my saved game icon. can i get 6? or is 5 the max?
Spoilerize that shit homeskillet.
Final final world has been slain.
Still seem to be missing 5 stamps, I'm going to guess those come from getting all flags with each character...which is a little too much for me so I think I'm done. The most tragic thing ever happened on the last level,

I spent too long figuring out the walljump part. I cleared the boost on my first attempt and ran out of time in the damn thank you pipe.

This randomly reminds me. I was finding that part annoying until I realized
you can just ground pound those spike-hat ants to death from above.
At what point does the game start showing who you've finished a level with in the scores screen?
because i'm going back to world 1 - 4 to try and 100% them and it doesn't show that yet...
for reference sake of where i'm up to,

I'm currently working my way towards the 210 stars required to unlock the bowser statue in star world

Thought I might as well post my clear times through World 4 to see how I compare to everyone.
I really wish there was leaderboards (unless I'm completely missing them).

God damn at the music in the first Boo Mansion
I went from hating haunted mansions to looking forward to the next one because of that song.

This might sound silly, but is there any way to set the Pro Controller as Player One when playing solo? I get a little irked seeing the GamePad mapped to Player One automatically on the character select screen. It's not a big deal to me, but I'd like an answer of sorts.
Multiplayer is tremendously fun, but I can't help but get a little mad when the person using the GamePad takes forever just to get back to the map screen. I'm impatient when it comes to Mario, lol. Other than that, I've landed on World 5. Game is really good, in every aspect. Some levels killed us off a lot, which I wasn't expecting.

5 is the max.
Collect/achieve all of those things in every level for a surprise (it's worth it).
Alright, I'm on it! Everything done until World-6, argh
For being such a high profile game, this OT sure doesnt move that fast.
Anyways, I only have a few stars left in
and then its on to
. A bit sad that its already almost over and that its probably a few year untill next game of this quality comes out - but then I reminded myself I still have Zelda unopened! What a december Nintendo gave us
Anyways, I only have a few stars left in

Man, people who think going it's a grind to go back through all the levels as other characters bum me out. I can see how it might seem really daunting, but just do a few a day. It does mean, after all, you get to continue playing Super Mario 3D World. That can't be a bad thing!
Try and set record times while you're at it, too.

I don't know how you move on to the next level without getting everything. It irks me to no end if they flag isn't yellow, there's no green star on the world flag pole or I missed the stamp. I simply CANNOT do the next level until it's all done.

Agreed. When I miss a star, stamp or gold flag, I usually take the opportunity to replay the level with Luigi, Toad or Peach - depending on which character I think would be interesting or fun to play that particular level with.
If you're so obsessed with getting the five stars that you feel it's a chore, there's something wrong with your approach to it

I don't understand...the desire to want to play the entire game 4 fuckin' times just to get an extra star or five stamps on your profile.
Like...what? That's a level of dedication I don't think I have. Or you just don't have anything else to play/do >_>

This is the first Mario game since they've added the file stars where I've not got the fifth star because the criteria for it is just plain laborious.

I did replay 3D Land
though, both because it was fun, but also partly because I'm a star whore
It has become a tradition to get those five stars in 3D Marios now.

What? Do you have a picture of this?
Unless you're being facetious. Always hard to tell on the Internet
Edit: On re-reading, you clearly are being facetious. I'll get my coat
So any suggestions before I pull the trigger with this:
I was thinking of making a Super Mario 3D World Speedrun leaderboards thread. Since the actual game doesn't have tools to compare your time to the world this way we could at least see who's the fastest cat on GAF. So basically what I was thinking was creating Top 10 for each level. Ties would be naturally allowed since this would be using in-game time. So holding the fastest time would earn you 10 points, second fastest 9 points etc. Continuing this tenth fastest time would earn you 1 point. I would then gather an almighty leaderboards gathering your points across all levels. Times would be verificated posting a screenshot of your stats screen on Miiverse and linking that to GAF.
If anyone wants to make a banner that would be cool too

I'm surprised my game time so far is only around 10 hours. I'm up to the
It feels like I've been playing it way longer, but I suppose because the levels are short it's quite deceptive. I've been replaying the opening world getting the stuff I missed. Now that I'm way more familiar with the game, I've got a new appreciation for the opening world. It's nowhere near as strong as the later worlds but it's still a shitload of fun. Better than most games can muster that's for sure.
Bowser World Boss level.
Totally! This is why we're planning on doing no coin/enemy/power-up challenges with each character, there are definitely ways to shake it up to keep it fresh.
