Ha, I was rocking this combo last night. I dig the Propeller Helmet, but is there any way to take it off? Like this screenshot, I had both it and the Tanooki Suit and the Skate, but I just wanted to use the Tanooki Suit, lol.

I just played some more.
Back flips and side flips seem to still be in the game.
There is a short-Long jump (Z+A) and a long-Long jump (Z+A while running.)
The triple jump being gone is a damn shame though.
Get hit, I guess, lol
The Wii version is on top of the other versions. Wow.... there are still so many Wii owners out there. Only if Nintendo can successfully convert them.

Not one that warps you to other Worlds, no.
Level 4-2 really shows off the wonderful lighting of the game, and the boomerang power-up is AWESOME.
Yeah you can definitely do the flips. Agreed about the triple jump, always thought that was brilliant. Its not even a matter of breaking the game, the high jump you get from jumping as you stick a ground pound gives you about the height of a triple jump. Hell, the way you pull that jump off alone is just a really convoluted version of the triple jump system
This really is a very pretty game.
NO SHIT.

I've played the game for about four hours and haven't completed World 4 yet, so I don't have any more worries about this game being too short, especially with me going back and finding all the green stars.
Fantastically fun game. Can't wait to play more tomorrow!

Also, Plessie seems a lot more fun (and controllable) than the surfing levels in Galaxy 1.

This is what piss me off, really. Nintendo should give more attention to this matter. The way retailers are treating Wii U is ridiculous. If this keep up the way it is, it might hurt Wii U sales considerably.

Completely agreed. On my replay of SMG I didn't touch those surfing levels, so I can't place my finger on what makes the Plessie levels more enjoyable...but I do know I enjoy them more from my memories of trying the surfing levels in SMG for the first time.
Never played it. The Mario games I've played before this are: Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, SMG1, and SMG2.??????
I do hope I'm somehow misunderstanding you.
Boomerpeach is so fucking awesome!!!
amazing!
if they ever sell toys I'm buying the whole collection

While it is obvious this is not Galaxy, it is still a damn impressive game and most important of all, the game Nintendo needed right now.
Adding multiplayer is the genious move by Nintendo, while also being able to play alone. I just played this with my 2 kids and we had a blast!! Again this is the game Nintendo needed right now and we get to have another top tier Mario, the best of both worlds they could achieve!!
I also wish we get a Galaxy type game but I am happy this is the game Nintendo released now.

It's funny that, after all the fear that this game would be too different than Galaxy, the levels are quite similar in many areas. You could literally change the background to "space" and I would buy it as a Galaxy game.
I'm somehow enjoying it MORE than either Galaxy game, however. It's just way too fun to do just about everything.

Got this as a gift today!
Had a bit of time to mess around before I had to up it down, but I've beaten World 1 (getting about 95% of the green stars) and have gotten a good chance to see some of the overall game types and stages.
Some basic thoughts:
should more than make up for it.
Going through the game as Luigi for now. It's his year, right? ;P
Had a bit of time to mess around before I had to up it down, but I've beaten World 1 (getting about 95% of the green stars) and have gotten a good chance to see some of the overall game types and stages.
Some basic thoughts:
- The controls are tight and the worlds are inventive. Essentially, it's a bigger, more fleshed out version of 3D Land - and while I can understand why some people wouldn't be particularly happy with that, I loved 3D Land and I'm only moreso happy to get more of it.
- The Cat Suit is surprisingly charming for something that came off incredibly kitsch when it was first revealed! It does feel a bit like 'easy-mode', particularly with its cat-swipe and air homing bomb thingy attack, but I imagine that it was designed to circumvent some of the issues with the new camera angle...
- ... which is both a blessing and a curse. It helps during multi-player sessions but I did notice that I was having problems landing some precision jumps (e.g. on top of Piranha Plant heads).
- The music is every bit as good as the little video that the Iwata Asks hosted suggests. The themes are fantastically written and some of the re-arrangements are so fresh that it's amazing how they managed to retain the "Mario flavour" while putting in new twists on the melody or rhythm. We are talking Gusty Galaxy levels of awesomeness packed into almost every stage!
- The Wii U Pro Controller is awesome once you get used to it. Until then, your hands will hurt and you will wonder why Nintendo ever went with the current stick layout. And then you will see genius when you stop using the stick to control movement, shift your thumb down to the D-pad, and it's like you never, ever want to let go ever again.

Ugh I went to 6 stores today since I felt like grabbing an Xbox One with Mario and Zelda, surprisingly (not really) none of them had the games up on display when I went. I ended up getting everything I set out to get, but I had to convince the worker that Mario and Zelda were out this week not next. Either way I hope they sell gangbusters this holiday.

Because they give zero fucks. At BB the guy told me that there hasn't been a new Mario game since Mario Bros U. He's like "oh you must be referring to the Luigi one". After 10 min on the computer he finally admitted the game existed, and went to the back where I'm assuming they've dumped their stock in a hole in the ground and have been sworn to silence. A huge banner for this game should be plastered outside the entrance of every BestBuy, but I guess that's only reserved for Call of Duty games, and other such shit.

Finished the main game. This game has some of the coolest moments in mario history. Such a unique taste.

Went to five stores around Salt Lake City, and saw no copies.
(3 Walmarts, 2 Best Buys)
This game is selling, apparently!
I really want a WiiU bundle with this. lol

I just can't help but get every star and stamp before moving on to the next level.
Judging by some other posts in this thread- are you sure they even had the game out to purchase?

World 4 complete. That was easily the best one so far. I found some parts of Worlds 1 through 3 to be dull, but every level in 4 was great. Thats it for today for me. Will do 5 through 8 tomorrow.
You and me both. I'm the same way with Star Coins...which i'm not sure if its a good thing lol. I guess you get all the fun out of that stage before moving on, if you really think about it.
Wow, what the hell happened here?
ALL 3 BIOSHOCK FOR 15$!?
You broke some people here.
Buying a Wii U tomorrow, along with Mario 3D World and Zelda at TRU. It is a good time to be a Nintendo fan.

It is going to take a few more levels before I am comfortable judging my jumps on enemies. Hadn't realised it at that time but the 3D on the 3DS helped a lot.

Haha, yeah I felt kind of pathetic failing my jumps at the start. That 3D really did help. You get used to it though, and I've been using Peach a lot as well which makes it very easy.
AKA the right way to play Mario.
