REDCOMMENDED: SUPER MARIO 3D LAND
YOU COULD argue that the Nintendo 3DS hasn’t yet received its one true killer app. Until now. Yes it has seen classic games get 3D makeovers – like Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Timeand Star Fox 64– but consumers have had to wait for a triple-A adventure to sink their teeth into. Super Mario 3D Landticks all the boxes. It’s an all-new platformer featuring gaming’s most iconic hero lovingly crafted especially for the 3DS console. Gameplay is an enjoyable blend of the recent Super Mario Galaxy and New Super Mario Broshits, with players able to explore 3D worlds as well as traditional side- scrolling 2D-style levels.

Super Mario 3D Land reinvents everything fans love about Mario gaming.
Roger Langford, Nintendo
“Super Mario 3D Land reinvents everything fans love about Mariogaming with the first platforming environment in true 3D, presenting a 3D Mariogame that plays like a 2D Mariogame,” says Nintendo’s junior product manager Roger Langford. The 3DS gives players a new sense of depth as they leap from platform to platform. Gamers can also play using the 3DS’ built-in gyro sensor. On top of this, Super Mario 3D Landwill feature StreetPass functionality.
MARIO’S NEW TAIL 3D Landbrings back the popular Tanooki racoon suit made famous in Nintendo’s classic Super Mario Bros 3. Players can use the suit’s tail to attack and float safely. There’s also new moves for Mario, such as a rolling somersault attack and a running dash. Plus, he can use propeller blocks to float in the air for a while. All in all, Super Mario 3D Land offers not only a must-buy proposition for 3DS owners, but a strong incentive for those who don’t own one. Expect it to be a true system-seller this Christmas.
