Our Video Editor’s Current Favorite Thing In New Super Mario Bros. U

Kotaku - Kotaku video editor Chris Person declares that the best part of New Super Mario Bros. U is the game's Boost Rush Mode, in which the sidescrolling game sidescrolls faster as you collect more coins.

Chris is a man of taste and a devotee of Dyad. Speed-racing is his thing. He hasn't played that much of NSMBU, so maybe he's missing something even cooler. For now.. please enjoy Chris' current favorite thing.

TOO FAST

TOO FURIOUS!!!

multipayer4179d ago

TOO Looks like it slows down when not collecting coins for awhile, or at least stops making that annoying max speed noise.

jon12344178d ago

thats it??? i thought it would be faster....

guitarded774178d ago

It doesn't look fast while observing, but as soon as you get behind the controller, you find out how fast it is.

Jihaad_cpt4178d ago

have to agree I was expecting it to be faster. Sonic won't be to worried yet

optimus4178d ago

"boost rush mode"... Reminds me of sega's "blast processing"...only it doesn't seem fast at all... The game does look pretty though, but it's going to take more than this mario game to make me run out and get a wiiU...show me metroid then we'll talk.

Goodbye New Mario, I Won't Miss You

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is the first Mario 2D game in almost two decades without the New Super Mario art style, and it looks all the better for it

Am I missing something? It looks exactly the same, just higher resolution… Is this sarcasm?

specialguest298d ago

Yes, you're not observant if you think it looks exactly the same. It immediately appeared different to me from the start. Mario's 3D model will always be the same, so not much difference there. However, the animation they've given the Super Mario Wonder makes it look more like a CGI Mario animation where as the New Mario Bros game looks more like typical video game animation movements

@specialguest Yeah those animations are insane.

FinalFantasyFanatic298d ago

You really didn't notice the difference? It's really obvious, I was surprised when I first saw the trailer.

"Am I missing something?"

Your glasses maybe?

Juancho51298d ago

This Mario game looks great, getting a switch for this and Mario RPG. CANT WAIT, TITS JACKED.

Profchaos298d ago

Yeah I liked how much more emotion could be conveyed through the new style at first glance I didn't see much difference but then rewatching the trailer I'm seeing more and more animations that remind me of the Mario artwork from the manual of smb3

Outlawzz298d ago

I hated the new super Mario bros Style. This new one seems a lot more expressive and less generic. I hope it's a good game

shinoff2183298d ago

I prefer the 2d Mario's. Me and my girl have played them all together and mario galaxy , Mario odyssey. The 2nd player option is extremely eh
