The latest issue of Famitsu has another update on Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition. We primarily get new information about various transformations Mario can undergo, but a few other tidbits were covered by the magazine as well.

Let’s talk about those random pieces of information first. Famitsu first mentions that a skill can be used after a certain number of turns have passed. This number can be reduced by leveling up the skill in a Toad House. When a skill is activated, a cut-in is shown.

Players will be able to enter a lottery inside a Toad House. They choose one question block out of three, and may obtain items like a 1UP mushroom (used for battle continues) or transformation items. The lottery can be entered by using coins that are obtained by clearing courses.

Famitsu provides a couple of additional tidbits as well. First, it is possible to gain 1UPs by stacking up combos in battle. The magazine also notes that the game features airship courses.

That’s not all from Famitsu! Head past the break for a comprehensive rundown of transformations – Boo Mario (and Luigi), Penguin Mario, and more.

Update: Amazon is indeed acting weird. Xenoblade Chronicles 3D is $1.50 off (thanks Nocturne) while Mario Party 10 is about $2 off.


Amazon has a strange sale running on Puzzle & Dragons Z + Puzzle & Dragons Super Mario Bros. Edition. The game won’t be available until May, but you can pre-order the game over on Amazon for just $30.28 – $10 off what we thought was the MSRP. I’m not too sure how long this will last, so take advantage while you can!
