I'm in.
I also bought the NES controllers because I'm a consumer whore. Maybe I can get my girlfriend to play co-op.

Removing boost mode was unnecessary, they could make it work using motion controls and a semi transparent crosshair.
I really hope they fix this with a patch. I guess it will depend on which wins out, Nintendo's renowned level of polish, or their infamous stubbornness...
I'll have to try it for myself, but yeah looking kinda yikes. Which sucks because you could really get a good rhythm down and really speed through levels if you got the timing of your jump down. Being forced into spinning can easily mess that up.
I mean, get better at the game? I dunno if it's fickle or something but demanding precision in controls isn't asking a lot for a hardcore mode.
I just saw this in my twitter feed too, but I'm not sure what is happening exactly? How does this relate to the twirl jump button mapping?
To me it just looks like he hits that pillar and then doesn't jump again.
Mark your calendar for 2022 when it hits the Switch Hits line!
Will probably find it on craigslist or something 6 months down the line.
It's not just a "hardcore" mode, it's a universal problem in NSMBUDX that didn't exist in the previous version, or any mainline 2D Mario in its entire history. It's punishing you now for performing an action a frame or two early when that clearly isn't the intended behavior and has ramifications beyond what the video shows, such as timing a high-bounce from a short hop. The video just happened to be a particularly apt example
Have you seen how much people are still trying to sell Mario Odyssey even just the cartridge alone?
There will be a 1 day deal soon.
Wait, they changed it? Can't you re-map it? What if you play with a Pro controller?
Gotta love people excusing poor controls. That form of difficulty is artificial at best, and clearly not intentional by design.
So can you rebind controls to fix this or...
...Why am I asking this, it's a Nintendo game, your lucky enough to even get a decent option menu with them at times. Arms had to patch in control options post launch.
To triple jump, you need to hit A as you hit the ground from your prior jump, this will give you a higher jump (and in this challenge, it will arc you into the coins for the challenge as you keep running), you also want to hold the A button down for maximum height, otherwise you will do a shorter version of the hop.
What's happening here pressing a button early (Which in previous games would have a little bit of a buffer and allow you to go into the Triple Jump right away when you hit the ground.) is now causing the mid-air twirl instead, keeping you in the air longer and more importantly not giving you the triple jump, and you don't have time to react to the twirl, let go of jump and press again before you hurtle off the cliff.
Something that should have been caught in QA. And would be solvable if it was a menu toggle or control setting (like Tap Jumps or Tilts on Sticks in Smash)
Ok thanks for the explainer. That is super bogus and hype-dampening.
Blue Toad Confirmed

Information
Yellow Toad is referred to as simply Toad. However, the player can switch from Yellow Toad to Blue Toad by pressing L or ZL while choosing the said playable character.

Can't wait. Already have it pre-loaded. Didn't play it on the WiiU so the stuff people are complaining about hopefully won't bug me as much.
Nabbit is gonna be perfect for my 4 year old to play along.

Yeah, man we really need a 3D World port. That game is honestly kinda underrated and I wish they ported that before NSMBU
IMO, this is the best 2D platformer Nintendo has ever released (I like it more than any of the DKC games & more than Mario Maker) and having a portable version is awfully tempting. On the other hand, I already own it on the Wii U so unless my disk breaks, I probably won't be rebuying it. But I highly recommend it to anyone who likes 2D platformers and hasn't played it before.
So uh...
Peach actually gives Toadette a kiss like the rest of the characters at the end of the game, so i guess she's canonically Biromantic now?
I'm also a bit concerned at the fact Nabbit is watching.

Picked it up today locally. I remember playing this on the Wii U, but don't remember anything about it so it'll feel fresh. Also never ended up picking up NSLU, so that will be completely new.
Yeah, here's a video showing that. I have no idea why Nintendo wanted to hide Blue Toad from us until release, but here he is!
Hopefully that means that two separate people can play as the two Toads (so that no one is stuck on easy mode).
You just know it was implemented so that the NES controllers would work...
Nintendo likes to gimp their Mario games towards the lowest common denominator without options when it comes to controls (see 3d World, Odyssey).

Kissing not an intrinsicly romantic gesture or necessarily an expression of romantic affection.
The NES controllers still have the shoulder buttons though. I think Nintendo just wanted to simplify the controls across the board, but in the process made it trickier for those used to the games
im glad some people are saying this. it really is such an amazing game and people who have not played it need to do it.
Same but i love mario so ill take what i can get. We will probably get 3d world this holiday or next spring i imagine. Mario maker will probably get an official sequel rather than a re-release
Why would they change this from the Wii U version? Can you at least shake to twirl then?
Spin is on ZR but it's also on A/B while you're in the air - you can't remap or disable
Not played the Wii U version so i kind of want this version however i am a little dissapointed in some of the changes they have made and they could have put a bit more effort into the gfx. Some of the stages could use some simple blur, fog and other fancy effects to give them a new coat of paint.
Wait, so you CAN have all 4 players without a handicap? Can Blue toad and Yellow toad be selected at the same time?
Damn that sounds like a big deal, didn't initially realize how it would affect your next jump buffer. I suppose it will also be an issue when trying to stomp enemies and get a boost jump.
I wasn't buying day one anyway but now I know I'm not buying at all if they don't add disable option.
