Yea, ill still wait and see. Theres a chance we could see multiple shells flying around. Itd be fun ricocheting off each other.
...but, watch the video and see how fast it goes. It just seems way too easy to piss off others if you grab a shell first.
There was a moment where it looked like the player had to trust the cat-suit's abilities and long jump into a wall much farther down than the ledge, then climb up to get back on the ground, like a leap of faith.

3D World is literally the only console game I give a shit about this fall.
I'm not really able to buy a new console this year, but if I was getting a new console, it would be a Wii U for this game. Not Forza 5, not KillZone, not Call of Duty, not Battlefield, not Assassin's Creed, this game.
I don't know if that makes me still a Nintendo fanboy, but to me this game just looks the most fun out of everything this fall.

One thing I really really like about 3d world is that its been a while since super mario had a certain feeling of "bizarre fun" to it. Probably since Mario 3.
As much as I love the galaxy games, the epic feel of those didn't allow for the quirkiness I love in Mario games of old. Somehow this seems to have it in Spades. Excite!

I love the colors.
The Koribu skate moves at a similar speed and that has been shown in multiplayer, and they never restricted the penguin suit or blue shell in the NSMB games either.
Keep in mind that players can drop in and out at any time, so it's unlikely that there would be any distinction between single player and multiplayer. It would go against every precedent to make this the one exception to a firmly held rule, especially for a reason that isn't unique to this power up. It's not just a chance, it's a safe assumption.
There's plenty of beautiful moons in that scene too!
As for 3D World, previously I thought "I'll get Donkey Kong and Sonic" but well, you know...
I actually had a problen with this with the Best Buy demo. We had been waiting in line for like an hour and I told my friend beforehand to take it slow and enjoy the level and to milk it. Then when we play multiplayer finally, some douchebag sped through the level and since he got farther past everyone else the screen got crazy small, especially on the Gamepad and it was hard to see my character and frustrating as well.
Turned out that douchebag was my friend.

Purchased a Wii U this afternoon and pre-ordered this game. Some great games coming to Wii U and this one is looking incredible. My kids are going to drop like a mic.
So I intended to get a PS4 first, then upgrade my PC then get a Wii U. Oh yea and watch XboxOne.
Ended up doing a complete overhaul on one of my PC's with an R9. Then saw more of this game and ordered for kids and myself. Thinking about waiting out first few months of PS4 now. PC for Multi-plats and Wii U seems like a great combo to break into 2014 and next Gen.
Christmas already well into the $ and several other Wii U possibilities might take first of year also.

Holy shit people weren't kidding when they said the level variety of 3D world was insane.

Looks like fun. Mostly footage we've already seen though.

Yeeaaaah, it looks like I'll be getting a Wii U when this game launches.
Did... did we just find out what the extra levels will be after you beat the game?

Remember when everyone complained about how much this game was gonna suck and how creatively bankrupt Nintendo was?

Cloning a great cast of characters in a slightly familiar 3d land. Looks genius to me now.

Not that I agree with that, but there's still time for it to go wrong.
Because it was all 4 player stuff from the first few worlds. I don't know why, but seeing the game in the context of a single player mode made the game look way more exciting.

Alternate costumes at 4:22?
Pretty much this! It got charm!

Just the fire flower isn't it?
It seems like people were afraid this would be designed only with multiplayer in mind.

I think you're forgetting the BEST title from the 2014 list.
They didn't forget.

Having just watched the first trailer again and checking the E3 thread , some people expected something as fresh and grand in concept as Mario 64 or Mario Galaxy, but instead Nintendo decided on extending the concept of Mario 3D Land with local multiplayer slapped on to it. Some people were calling it lazy, uninspiring, bland and dumbed down. They thought it looked too safe. We did see just enough variety in platforming to know that there's more to the game that what we were first shown, but it wasn't until the second trailer that we saw more crafty sections of gameplay and more power-ups.
In all fairness, it is pretty easy to see why the first trailer looked underwhelming, but several people had faith EAD Tokyo was going to pull a 180 before the game's release, and yes, it did. Even the gaming media has noticeably responded much better to the recent trailers and gameplay demos.
