Super Mario 3D Land

Game » consists of 6 releases. First released on Nov 13, 2011

In a merger that makes perfect sense, Super Mario 3D Land mixes 3D and 2D Mario into one cohesive whole that blends gameplay from two dimensions into one.

The Special World.

So have any of you made it to the special world yet?

Have you?

@TaliciaDragonsong: Yes, and my mind was BLOWN on the first level.

Do you still have to collect stupid stuff like in NSMB Wii?

#5 Posted by Hizang (8536 posts) - 1 year, 5 months ago

@AlmostSwedish: There are three coins in each world to collect, there not to hard to collect.

Liar. Unless you pre-programmed a robot to type these messages your mind is still intact. Thus, you have not reached the special world yet :D

Maybe you're the dragon ...you just want our gold!

@Hizang: Is this game worth buying a 3DS? I would really love a new Mario platformer to play but I can't decide.

@Hizang: So "yes" then? :)

I'm sorry I don't mean to be rude. I just find that mechanic to be incredibly boring and ancient. I only ever had the patience to unlock the first level in the Wii version. I don't get why they hide good level design behind collectibles. I beat you game, just give me the levels. Heck, I rather they have you complete each world under some certain time limit instead. At least that way the challenge is somewhat consistent.

The special world after you beat 8-6 or whatever? or do you mean something else because yeah, Ive beaten the first special world and gotten Luigi etc.

I finished the first 8 worlds while sitting at the Honda Dealership. The game is ridiculously easy.

Most of it is, but theres definately some tricky parts in that last world.

@Rappelsiini: This game alone is not enough to get a 3DS, but with the whole DS library available, a few good 3DS games and hey the future (Mario Kart 7) you may as well get it. Oh and Super Mario 3D Land is one of the best Mario game I have played.

@GunstarRed: Ok so there seems to be some confusion, for people that don't want to know don't read.

On the first level there is a poison mushroom and a Tanooki suit that can turn you in to a statue.

Haven't gotten to the Special World yet, but the white invincible Tanooki Suit you get the choice of collecting when you die too many times is GODLIKE.
