Rumor: Super Mario 3D World files contain data for Toadette, including voice line for being selected
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
Most Mario games only have you playing as Mario himself, but Super Mario 3D World is a bit different. Other characters from the Mushroom Kingdom can be used and even have their own abilities and gimmicks.
Toad is fully playable in Super Mario 3D World, but Toadette is not. However, based on a bit of datamining, it seems that Nintendo at least toyed around with the idea.
Best Buy puts up inactive listing for Super Mario 3D World on Switch, but it may not mean anything
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Super Mario 3D World for Switch has a listing on Best Buy – well, sort of. It’s not truly live on the website, as it’s inactive and the URL essentially leads nowhere at the moment. Still, its existence alone is generating some excitement. The question is, does the listing actually have any meaning?
Here’s a look at what’s been making the rounds:

Nintendo seems to have used Super Mario 3D World’s “Super Bell Hill” as a test map while making Splatoon
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Yesterday, Nintendo posted a video featuring Splatoon series producer Hisashi Nogami and Nintendo’s Shinya Takahashi from the V&A Museum. An exhibit opened a few months ago showcasing the original game’s development.
Throughout the video, Nintendo showed brief flashes of Splatoon’s creation. One aspect fans noticed is that “Super Bell Hill”, the first level in Super Mario 3D World, was apparently used as a test map during development. We can also see that there was a different special meter.

A bit of Super Mario 3D World maintenance taking place on Monday
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 1 Comment
A little bit of online maintenance will be taking place on Monday for Super Mario 3D World. Between 7:30 PM ET and 8:30 PM ET (4:30 PM PT and 5:30 PM PT), the game’s online functionality will be affected.
Super Mario 3D World doesn’t have a whole lot of online features, so it’s a bit strange to see it getting maintenance. Aside from ghosts Miis and some Miiverse usage, there’s not too much there.

Nintendo now selling Super Mario 3D World in a red case?
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U | 16 Comments
Rumor has it that Nintendo has started to sell Super Mario 3D World in a red case, much like Mario Kart 8. The shot above was taken at one Target store in North America. Is anyone else seeing the same sort of thing?

Here’s a Podcast – Episode 92!
Posted on 10 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in Features, Podcast | 12 Comments
ON THIS EPISODE: We talk all about the games we played this week, including more Mario Kart from Austin (this week? Double Dash!), some Mario 3D World and WarioWare from Jack, and not too much from Laura! We also get into a brief discussion about how Nintendo is still a little behind in many regards when it comes to their online gaming feature-set, and what we’d like to see improve.
PLUS: Our mid-segement this week hits upon Nintendo’s fairly bare-bones release calendar for Wii U as well as the token discussion of this week’s Tomodachi Life controversy. We think it’s dumb to not have same-sex marriage in the game, but a few interesting points come up that actually go against the hubbub.
AND: Listener mail has us talking about our favorite game ever (well… not Laura’s!), as well as a bit of Smash Bros and Mario Kart discussion. Plus a few other things. And lots of mis-pronouncing of words and phrases. Oh boy.
