Posted January 12, 20214 yr The new content is looking very good! I haven't played the original on the Wii U either, so I'm looking forward to picking this up when I finish 3D All Stars (which may be a while :lol:) ppkX8epoD9g
January 14, 20214 yr I played the WiiU version and this was probably the best game at the time on that console. I will no doubt buy this for the switch but I’m not paying £50 which is the cost on Amazon right now! Edited January 14, 20214 yr by slowdown73
January 15, 20214 yr This was probably my favourite WiiU game and Bowers Fury looks great, wil be picking this up on release day.
January 15, 20214 yr I agree that this does look good from that trailer. I suspect I'll end up getting this one as I usually relent when it comes to Mario games ^_^
January 15, 20214 yr Author I played the WiiU version and this was probably the best game at the time on that console. I will no doubt buy this for the switch but I’m not paying £50 which is the cost on Amazon right now! Switch games seem to usually be £50 before release, and come down to about £40-45 when they come out :lol:
January 19, 20214 yr I already have this pre-ordered. I was on the fence but apparently this was a must have for Wii u and one of the best ever made mario games, so I feel compelled to get it. The trailer was also fantastic.
January 19, 20214 yr I have it on the Wii U and remember it being really good at the time, but never replayed it since like I have recently with 3D Land on the DS (but then, the DS is much easier to pick up and play than the Wii U, which I don't even have out by the TV anymore). The extra material does look great though, so I'll definitely pick it up for Switch too.
January 20, 20214 yr Switch games seem to usually be £50 before release, and come down to about £40-45 when they come out :lol: They used to be about £40 when they come out but since lockdown last year I’ve noticed the price has gone up for many games particularly on Amazon.
January 20, 20214 yr Author 3D All-Stars is already £36.99 on Amazon so it might be worth waiting if you're not desperate, I'm not going to get this just yet as I still have all of Sunshine and 64 to go :lol:
February 4, 20214 yr Going to get this but not sure whether to get the steelbook version (currently £49.99 on Amazon) or the normal (currently £42.85 on ShopTo). :unsure:
February 16, 20214 yr I've bought this today - the steelbook version! I feel a bit bad about spending £49.99... but my birthday is a week today, so I thought I'd treat myself :cool: I have this game on Wii U... but I don't really have strong memories about playing it, weirdly. I had to double check that I actually own it! I suppose it's the fact that it's been 7 years since I played it. So I'm looking forward to rediscovering it, and Bowser's Fury looks great. The Wii U was such a clunky console, with that large gamepad. I remember enjoying playing The Legend of Zelda - The Wind Waker on it though.

The Wii U was such a clunky console, with that large gamepad. I remember enjoying playing The Legend of Zelda - The Wind Waker on it though. Agree with all of this, I got the game with the steelbook on Friday and have spent a couple of hours with it and my memories of it are so vague, which is weird because I remember Super Mario 3D Land really well and that was a couple of years older. It's really good though, and Bowser's Fury is great so far too, quite a unique USP with Bowser's literal fury causing a temporary change to the gameplay dynamic being the twist! I think all but two of the Wii U games I owned have now been ported to Switch so it's almost pointless keeping hold of it, although they did port the GBA version of Super Mario Bros 3 onto the Virtual Console with the rare e-reader levels, so I do at least still return to the Wii U for that. And some of the N64 games I downloaded on it too, seeing as there's no N64 app for the Switch.
