We also get a glimpse of Mario and Peach using their hats to glide, meaning this isn’t a move exclusive to the princess anymore. Other forms of play we see are grinding by hand and foot on rails, swimming up rainclouds dumping water, and at least a little movement between the foreground and background. We don’t know all the new mechanics of this form, aside from punting a poor Goomba, but the possibilities are endless. We see Mario collect what is called a Wonder Seed that seemed to turn the world back to normal.Īs for traditional power-ups, we’ve really only seen the Mushroom and Fire Flower, but the new addition of an apple with an elephant’s trunk that turns Mario into an elephant is the most exciting. Collecting these changed the levels in a bunch of unexpected ways, such as changing your character into a spiked ball, bringing the pipes to life, and Mario even stretching and squashing in odd ways. The first, and probably most prominent, shakeup to the formula is the Wonder Flowers.
First off, it is indeed a 2D platformer where you will be mainly running and jumping through obstacle courses filled with hazards and enemies to reach the flagpole at the end. This is where the meat of Super Mario Bros. This is backed up by the main new item called Wonder Flowers which suddenly shifts the level in different ways. These little blooms show up all across the stages and give small greetings to Mario as he passes by. The new “character” we suspect to be part of the story is the flowers that speak to Mario during the trailer.
Instead, the trailer mainly showcases the new art style and gameplay mechanics. In terms of story, which is typically light in a 2D Mario game anyway, essentially nothing is shown off from the trailer. Wonder came during the June Nintendo Direct as the “one last thing” announcement.
