I wonder which forum member will beat it first...
Whoever gets the review copy?

C'mon we all know reviewers don't actually play the games they review.

But you're assuming that the person who gets the review copy was the one who was actually going to review it.

A better discussion is why the Blue Shell wasn't hell with wings in NSMBDS. It would've been the greatest item ever, except with making the game easier.

I don't think an item you wear that explodes on contact would really help.

Does anyone know if well be using tubes or flutes to warp?

Get rid of the explosion.

That would be an awesome throwback to SMB3 if you could find hidden whistles!

Isn't that what the cannons are for though?

whistles > cannons

I'm just pointing out the fact that having an item that warps with a map element that warps seems pointless. IN SMB3 you needed it. NSMBW doesn't need it since it has cannons already.

Even if the whistles did nothing but allow you to wave the remote around a la wiimusic?

Not that that wouldn't be cool.

I <3 Whistles

GoldenPhoenix · « **Reply #662 on:** November 05, 2009, 04:14:26 PM »

If you guys want real life substitutes to dragons, get a Bombardier Beetle. It farts really hot liquid like a dragon!

That is what it thinks about derailing the thread to talk about what a komodo dragon is.

Halbred · « **Reply #663 on:** November 05, 2009, 04:45:33 PM »

Yeah, bombadier beetles are awesome. Three separate chemicals combine to form a super-hot acidic substance. Don't piss those bugs off. It's where the guys who did Reign of Fire got the idea for the dragons' fire breath.

D_Average · « **Reply #664 on:** November 05, 2009, 06:27:27 PM »

Miyamoto should slap a football helmet on that beetle and toss him in NSMBW.

Peachylala · « **Reply #665 on:** November 05, 2009, 08:19:39 PM »

Just give Buzzy Beetle a rocket on his ass and viola, the beetle is in the game.

The canons shot you to a specific world, the whistle let you choose from 3 worlds (6 if you had 2 whistles and used them after each other).

(6 if you had 2 whistles and used them after each other).

Actually, if you have two whistles then you have access to all seven worlds! When you use the first whistle, if you choose to enter World 4 and then use the second whistle, you'll get to choose between 5, 6, and 7. However, if you use the second whistle in the Warp Zone (World 9) then you'll go straight to World 8!

Stratos · « **Reply #668 on:** November 06, 2009, 07:06:55 PM »

Wait, the warp zone is considered World 9?

Could that be what someone saw earlier on a demo of the game where the save file mentioned World 9? I can't find the post, but it was earlier in this thread.

Uh, um, was that a spoiler? Because the last person put it in spoiler tags.

But yeah, if you looked at the World display when you're in the Warp Zone then it says "World 9".

Did you just nag Stratos about using a spoiler tag and then repeat the spoiler in the same post without covering it up? WTF. ~ vudu

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #670 on:** November 06, 2009, 07:40:27 PM »

Why would you spoiler something from Super Mario Bros. 3?
That is what you are talking about right?

Mop it up · « **Reply #671 on:** November 06, 2009, 07:43:45 PM »

That wasn't what Stratos was referring to. He was talking about when the game was played on Nintendo Week, the shot of the file select screen showed "World 9" on the file. There was said to be 8 worlds so the possibility of a World 9 might be considered a spoiler.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #672 on:** November 07, 2009, 05:31:05 AM »

I hope they don't make the warps as easy to access as in NSMB, it completely wrecked the sense of progression.

Mop it up · « **Reply #673 on:** November 07, 2009, 02:27:59 PM »

I didn't find the warps until after I had already gone through most of the worlds because I didn't go back to search for secret exits until later.

Stratos · « **Reply #674 on:** November 07, 2009, 05:39:41 PM »

I stumbled on several warp cannons by accident more than anything because I happened to have the right powerup at the right moment so it messed up my sense of level progression.
