Super Mario 3D Land US Launch Event

Just in case you'd forgotten Super Mario 3D Land is released this week and Nintendo of America have celebrated this buy transforming Military Island in Times Square into Mario's 3D World. Fans of the game could step inside a 'real' version of the anticipated videogame and we have all the footage inside.

Past Mario games have let the blue-suspendered hero roam around fully rendered 3D landscapes. Now, for the first time, players can see true depth of their environment without the need for special glasses. Super Mario is a 3D evolution of classic Mario platforming featuring new level designs and challenges.

Features:

• 3D visuals make it easier for players to judge the depths and distances in their environments. Players can more accurately judge the jump to the next platform or how far Mario is from a question block.
• New and familiar abilities add unique game-play strategies to the adventure. Mario can perform a rolling somersault attack or run fast with a dash move. Or, as Tanooki Mario, he can use his tail to hover, perform floating jumps or attacks.
• The Circle Pad gives players complete control to confidently move Mario through fun and challenging environments.
• New enemies include Goombas with tails, tall stacks of Goombas and a Piranha Plant that spits ink to obscure a player's view.
