Looking through the transcription of last week’s Famitsu, I noticed that a couple of New Super Mario Bros. 2 tidbits were summarized from the magazine.

One point concerns Luigi. Whereas Mario becomes golden after touching a Gold Flower, Luigi becomes Silver Luigi. This is something you may have picked up on through previous updates.

Famitsu additionally covered a particular stage type. These levels have Mario initially being shot out of a large cannon. He’ll run to the right, making movement automatic. Players will need to use precise jumps to get Mario through the stage.
