Super Mario 3D Land in our game database (add it to your collection/log and rate it!) Super Mario 3D Land is a platformer that has been described by game designer Shigeru Miyamoto as a "3D Mario that plays as a 2D Mario game." As such, Super Mario 3D Land combines the elements of traditional side-scrolling Mario titles, such as linear-based levels, with those of the modern open world Mario titles, such as moving Mario in three dimensions and performing a variety of actions. Similar to the classic side-scrolling Mario games, the objective of each level is to reach and grab the flagpole located at the end before the time limit expires. Super Mario 3D Land utilizes a similar health system to those games, in which Mario shrinks upon taking damage from enemies or hazards, and damage while "small" results in losing a life. The game offers a number of traditional Mario items, such as the Super Mushroom, Fire Flower, and Starman, along with new power-ups that bestow a special suit onto Mario that grants him new abilities. Some revealed power-ups include the Super Leaf from Super Mario Bros. 3, which allows Mario to turn into Tanooki Mario and attack with his raccoon-like tail and float in the air; the Statue Leaf, which allows him to turn into a statue; and the Propeller Box, which acts similarly to the Propeller Block and the Propeller Mushroom from New Super Mario Bros. Wii, allowing Mario to reach high places. Bout to head out to pick up my copy! Here we go!URL to share (right click and copy)

@bryanee1983Thats cool! Again though, why wouldn't games in all regions have this? One would think the game is probably processed at the same place for all regions and even if its not, why would Nintendo decide to have a reversible cover for one region and not all of them? It little things like this that boggle my mind. And I am easily boggled! Ok, yesterday I think I mentioned that I made it to world 8! I started playing the game earlier today and I made it through each level and finally got to the Bowser level. Now, i was thinking that this Bowser stage would have a bigger battle at the end and..... I couldn't believe that once I actually completed the level that EVEN MORE LEVELS opened up in world 8!!! ARRRRG! Don't get me wrong, I am actually really happy about this, but I was really hoping to complete the game at that moment in time cause, well, I was at work and I had other stuff that needed to be done. So, now I am home and here soon I will have to continue on with the game. I want to at least complete the main part of the game before the podcast in the morning. But I was hoping to be able to collect all the stars so I could open the special stages and play a few of them as well. Anyways, here are my stats and I am in the middle of world 8..or at least I am assuming thats where I am at. Total Play Time: 11 hours 19 mins Time Died: 205 ** Actually, its more than this cause sometimes I would quit the game after dying alot and I would be almost out of lives and I didn't want to see a game over screen.I will be honest, if everyone is being honest in how fast they completed the game, I feel like I must suck at videogames, or maybe I just suck at Mario games. Seriously, the first dude who completed the main challenge stated it only took him around 4 hours and I think that was even getting all the star coins. Seriously, I know there is no way in hell I could beat the first part of the game in 4 hours and collect all the star coins and even after playing the game, I doubt I could still beat it that fast. How, I already had to ask for help finding the last star in one of the levels. And hell, just in one of the levels in world 8, I went through the whole level and didn't even see a star coin. It was the one where all the green platforms rotate and floor part is yellow. So, Im not even done the main quest and Im over 11 hours into the game. I still need to complete it, and then collect all the star coins for the special levels to open up. And still yet there is alot of flags that I need to go back and conquer those as well. Hell, I will probably have over 20 hours just getting completing everything with Mario. Like I mentioned, I would rather have the game take me longer to complete, but I really feel like I must suck when some people are completing this game in like 4-8 hours and its probably going to take me 20 hours. |
