Super Mario 3D Land: New Gameplay Videos
A host of gameplay vids to get your mouth watering for the main course.
It’s easy to forget that there’s a new Mario platformer coming this November, considering how the month is jam-packed with Triple-A titles across every known console. But perhaps these new short videos will help remind you.
The first one is a brief story setup, including what will no doubt be considered an “official” explanation for the origins of the Tanooki Suit; After a mysterious wind blows away all the feathers from the Tanooki tree, Mario and friends are shocked (no, really) to find out that Bowser is behind this, and has abducted Princess Peach to boot.
The rest of the videos show off several gameplay elements, including a tutorial on how to jump on enemies’ heads to defeat them. You laugh now, but there was a time when we all had to learn the basics. We also get a glimpse of Tanooki Awesomeness, as the classic suit has been given a stronger tail attack in addition to a powered-up mode that makes Mario invincible.
Find out more in the Super Mario 3D Land Hub.



Ooooooooh it’s looking Brilliant !!!!!!!
I wonder what that gold ring is at the end of the fire flower video
When you pass on it you gain 5 coins =D
Wow! This looks a whole lot like something I posted about an hour ago! http://www.3dsbuzz.com/3ds-forum/nintendo-3ds-games-software-11/brand-new-sm3dl-vids-6-total-direct-feed-screens-4639/

Why…..why can’t I travel forwards in time and get this game already >.< I know it's October already, but November still feels so far away!
This game already looked great, how much more awesome can it get? It looks like so much fun to play.

@cam can i have your fc so we can play mario kart in december owo
oh yeah note if you watch nintendo show 3d you can see the begining story video in 3d and with audio
C8 I am happy I preordered the game. It will be on my doorstep come November OH YEAH!
I hope I’ll be able to get this on day one at my local Wal-Mart…..I’ll be getting up at 7:30 AM to walk (or ride my bike if there isn’t any snow yet) over there and run in when it opens at 8:00. I pre-ordered the Skyward Sword Bundle at an EB Games……I just hope I won’t regret not pre-ordering this.
@Mariomaster1 You’ll miss on the tanooki mario keychain and, you better pre-order just to be safe. oώo
November Hurry!!
THE Gold ring at the fire flower video might be for 8 red coins?
@kindricks
Yeah, I think I’ll do that…..my one uncle lives in Windsor and since I’ll be seeing him tomorrow, I’ll just ask him to Pre-order Super Mario 3D Land for me at the EB Games as well. But, is the keychain for everywhere?
@Mariomaster1 yeah if you pre-order at gamestop or eb games you get it which i see your doing so good job there. only it’s a full out tanooki mario keychain that is cool oh and good idea pre-ordering i heard the games getting hot on pre-orders now so you better get ther fast owo oh and are you getting mario kart
@kindricks
…..as for Mario Kart 7, I’m getting that for Christmas, my money could only cover the Skyward Sword Bundle and 3D Land. But hey, it’s not like I’ll go insane waiting for it with those other two awesome games there to keep me occupied
.
Yeah, I’ve seen a picture of the keychain and it is definitely awesome
These videos are just pure gold. (Not literally, some of the best videos this year!) The tree has a tail so that’s where the Tanooki Leafs come from. I wonder if these will be introduced in Paper Mario. The ability of the Tanooki Leaf in Mario Kart 7 will be astounding. So Bowser is up to him mischief once again. He never learns.
This game’s ending will be lovely. Peach and Mario will come back together. Will those two ever marry each other!? Cute little white bird in the movement video. Will there be a price by catching it? The coins have came alive in the movement video, lol. What do those long blocks do? There must be something in them. The powerups are awesome. Well Tanooki Mario can fly which is similar to Cloud Mario from Super Mario Galaxy 2. I doubt there’ll be another Super Mario Galaxy. Do those dangerous Fire breathing Piranha Plant have a name. E.g. Fire Plant, Inferno Plant.
This is new. Invincible Tanooki Mario? Flying Mario is there too. That would be great to find if you just want to reach the finish line and get further through. Those Starcoins seem difficult to find but anyone can figure it out eventually. I can’t believe how close this is now. 47 days 8 hours and 50 minutes remaining for the UK. 44 days and ditto for the US.
Will this sort of game ever get online play? One person could be Mario, another Luigi, and the other two Toads so online play would have up to 3 other players from your friend list. The characters of the players will be chosen at random. It would be great because then there could be like secret areas which you could access and beat your friends to the finish line. Looks like 8 worlds again.
I want there to be more worlds or maybe like the idea from Super Mario Galaxy to Super Mario Galaxy 2. That idea is adding more worlds and green stars for Super Mario Galaxy 2. In this game you could have green finish lines, secret areas in worlds you passed which can only be accessable once you finish the game.
It would be cool if there was a shop like they did in Super Princess Peach a while ago if you remember. You could buy powerups and buy tutorials of the world. The tutorials could be accessed as soon as the player has had a go at the world. Later there will be tutorials for green finish lines too. You could also buy music of everything in the game to always listen to.
The graphics of the game are amazing and the 3D just improves on it. Overall, an amazing game. I would rate it 95% because the storyline is always exciting. The levels are detailed with bright colours. The only real letdown is that there could be online play.
Sorry, if I posted to much. This will always be a memorable game by me. I hope everyone will enjoy this game.
@Fire Mario
Wow, you deserve a Longest Post Award for all that!
@Mariomaster1 yeah i’m gonna buy mariokart7 on day one but i’l be forced to wait but i’ll have thing like skyward sword and 3d land to keep me occupied also can i have your 3ds fc so when it dose come out we can play owo
@kindricks
Uh, I guess……now, where would I find that >.>?
@Mariomaster1 get your 3ds go to your friends list (the smiling icon) go over to your mii and get your 24 digit code then once you type it and post here on 3ds buzz enter mine by going to register friend and enter mine which is 4596-9462-6876
@kindricks
Ok, mine is 2836-0190-2957. I’ll add yours in a bit….
@kindricks
By the way, should I just put in your screen name?
@kindricks
Never mind, I just used your screen name.
@Mariomaster1 your now on my list now all there is is to wait till dec 25 when i can finally open my copy of mario kart and you can too dB
@kindricks
Oh yes, and waiting is always the hardest part XD But there’s the other games arriving in November still, so it’s all good!
@Mariomaster1 yeah that’s great but what am i gonna do to wait for those XD super mario 3d land and skyward sword gonna be hard to wait for XD
@kindricks
Well, for me there’s Kirby Mass Attack, Kirby’s Return to Dreamland (coming out on the 24th, my Brother’s gonna buy it after his Birthday), possibly the GBA Ambassador titles if they are released on October 27th (Club Nintendo page mentions post-play surveys for eligible Ambassador Games involving that date) and the already existing Four Sword Anniversary Edition……so I’m somewhat set, are you sure you don’t have any of these to ease the waiting on your end?
@Mariomaster1 i won’t get any kirby but i might be able to sooth my wait with cave story 3d, sm3dl and syward sword so i gusse i’m set too but man your lucky you getting both of those kirby games while i only get the 3ds games XD oωo
awesome
@kindricks
But it’s good that you too have a method to escape the torture that is waiting for awesome games.
Well, the fact that my Birthday was just a while ago in September makes me one lucky guy, it’s like I had the Money Money Badge
@Mariomaster1 i had a birthday last month too XD and yeah it’s a fair method
@kindricks
Really, well Late Happy Birthdays too all XD
I want to get this game! its $100 to get it early.
