Well, Mario week continues here at Chachi Says! Lets start off by pointing out the Release dates listed at the top. You notice the lapse in time for the releases? Rom chip shortage prevented the release in the west. So it got more hype and promotion in america. Re: the Wizard.
So My top two favorite games of all time are Legend of Zelda and this. I love this game. If im having a bad day, this game fixes it. i have had to replace my cart and 72 pin connecter in the nintendo mainly because of this game.
So in this continuation of the story the game returns to being a two player game. Instead of one player continously playing however its turn based. Complete a level or fail to complete a level and it is the other players turn. That changed along with the world layout, instead of knowing that every world has 4 levels,(3 world and the castle) Each world has a varying number of levels before the customary castle…. oh wait did i say customary? thats not right. Oh yes, you battle the boss of each world on their airship.
Also the story has evolved. You no longer face a nameless Koopa henchmen, you face his children. 7. Each has taken the magic wand from the king of the land they are in and have turned them into animals. Using your skill you must reclaim each world and defeat the children to restore order. However you do not have to do this with just a mushroom or flower anymore. Oh no madam and/or sirs. you get new power ups to help you along the way. Some are just simple things like the mushroom flower and Raccoon tail. Others are full suits that change your whole appearance. Frog suit, Taooki suit, Hammer suit, and so on.
To avoid what happened with SMB 2 the designers decided to change a few elements. The game is more forgiving in the beginning. Chances to gather extra lives and power ups faster to create a stock pile early on. Later in the game however the stages get harder and the power ups not as plenty. Making a game for everybody.
Chachi Says: dont get me wrong i will always give mad props to the original SMB, but between this and Super mario 64, My attention and love are divided.
