...I watched the whole thing, and was deeply impressed. And then forgot about this thread entirely.
Also, impression aside, I don't really have much to comment.

The SM3DW trailer is incredible. Lots of great gimmicks, including the neat new Double Cherry power-up, that have the potential to have really fun levels built around them.
Also, the return of the Kuribo Shoe! Sort of! It's about dang time.

Yay, for 5th character, I wonder if EAD told Sakurai of this person?
Also, I hope Miiverse functionality will make it easy to grab screenshots from 3DS games for the site.

For a character that's considered a spoiler, I've already seen it specifically mentioned in headlines. It's nearly impossible to avoid it at this point.

For a character that's considered a spoiler, I've already seen it specifically mentioned in headlines. It's nearly impossible to avoid it at this point. Nintendo's not really helping either. www.youtube.com/user/Nintendo/videosThe thumbnail for the "10 New Things" trailer shows the unlockable character right in plain site, so you'll still see who it is even if you don't click on the trailer. In all honesty I don't see what the big deal is with knowing a playable character in a Mario game, unlockable or not. I just don't understand why Nintendo made such a big deal over spoilers during the Nintendo Direct, and then immediately made no effort to try and hide anything. |

I guess they're not hiding the spoilers since lots of speculations and reviewes have predicted this anyway. Still, to tell late-game elements straightaway like this.... Now I don't understand Nintendo's "show only things in Worlds 1 and 2" guideline given to reviewers.

Japan just had their own Direct, most of the content was the same with the exception of new AR cards featuring Animal Crossing and Pikmin characters. www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/ar_photo/ |
