Super Mario Run hasn’t seen much in the way of new content in recent years, but believe it or not, a new version 3.1.0 update went live today that adds a brand new Super Mario Bros. Wonder event.

Once full, the Wonder Flower will appear – and you’ll even hear music from the Switch game. Coins in the stage will then turn into Gold Goombas, who can be defeated by touching them.

Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Random, Switch | 0 comments
Super Mario Bros. Wonder has the most playable characters yet for a 2D side-scrolling Mario game, but Rosalina isn’t included in the fun. Some were disappointed by that fact, and to rectify the situation, one fan created a new mod to add her in.
Dytser is behind the mod which has already come a long way. Rosalina has “distinct transformations that look unique compared to the others”, and Dytser even gave her a new look for the Elephant power-up. Most of the transformations are done, but some are a work-in-progress.

Posted on 2 years ago by Ethan Gnau in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Today, we’ll be going over the best way to tackle each section – as well as something very simple you can do to make the Final-Final Test: Badge Marathon in Super Mario Bros. Wonder so much easier. If you’re ready to beat the challenge once and for all, then let’s get started.
For the most part, Super Mario Bros. Wonder’s levels – while fun – aren’t particularly difficult. That all changes when you reach the game’s final level, which is one of the toughest stages in the entire series.

Search Party Puzzling Park Coin locations in Super Mario Bros. Wonder
Posted on 2 years ago by Ethan Gnau in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Since Puzzling Park is more difficult than the average stage in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, we’ve written up a guide on where to find all five flower tokens. Most of Super Mario Bros. Wonder’s stages are pretty easy, but then there are the Search Party stages, which take a surprisingly long time to complete in comparison. That’s because these stages sort of require the presence of four players: there are hidden blocks everywhere and most of them are rather difficult to find.
