If you're wondering which pits hold secrets, look for the dark shading at the bottom of the screen. Secret pits don't have the shading, so you can tell at a glance if it's safe to take a leap of faith.

[@Enaronia]

Oh.

[@Clownfly64]

Absolutely insane how they gave each level it's own Wonder effect.

[@epicgaemr5461]

nah sometimes they repeat effects

[@MacenW]

​@@epicgaemr5461the amount of effects in this game is impressive makes the NSMB games boring

[@dippking4638]

​@@epicgaemr5461not quite lol,some might have the same effect but are completely different than the previous one,as if its a "part 2"

[@imspoilerina9228]

The only levels that repeat wonder effects are airship levels and the Bowser level and the final test level but they both get excuses as they serve as remixes for previous wonder effects

You have to get all the badges but one (secret badge), the wonder seeds, the big flower coins, the top of the flagpoles, and the standees to get the true secret ending.

[@harryh4h720]

Do you I've got the beat the secret badge level Andy unlocked the secret badge but I still haven't got all standees is there something after that?

[@mileslyster2281]

It's not a true ending, more of a final challenge. There's no ramifications to the story

I know it’s very cliche to say “the new entry is the best one” but i arguably do think that this is the best mario game we have ever gotten. smb3 and world are amazing, but i can easily see this one becoming the number 1 contender for best entry.

[@PakaPakaPaka69420]

Every pit that kills you has a dark gradient effect coming from it.

[@Kingboo247]

To address your question, if you’re out running errands or whatever and your house turns into a jail cell, you’re not getting the wonder seed out of your house. And there’s no way they just have them on them. Would you go to the store carrying a giant walnut? No, no you would not. Anyway, you can juggle a shell with elephant Mario’s trunk to look cool (and earn a few coins).

[@SheepLiver]

What, your telling me you don't just walk around with a giant walnut?

[@xraenon1664]

I’m pretty sure you need to collect all the purple 10-coins to unlock this game’s equivalent to Champion’s Road, but I might be wrong about that.

[@harryh4h720]

I think you need all seeds,coins and top flags just in case spoilers for what I know is the final level as it maybe different from what your thinking It's the badge one where you do different sections for each badge with lethal bullshit invisible section for the end

Ohhhh is that what the flags and coins get you? I couldn't find an answer online

[@doomse150]

15:18 The point is not that all the people got locked in, it's that all the seeds did. And prisons usually do about as good a job at keeping people out as they do at keeping them in.

[@skycaboose]

For 100% purposes yes you need to find and get every purple 10 coin, every Wonder Seed, and have to get to the top of every flagpole and id guess they would unlock "the perfect run level" (dont know cause i 100% every level as i went along) and um yeah it is hard took me a few hours and alot of lives its hard but you do feel accomplished after beating it Also if you care to get true 100% you also need to get every Standee you're gonna need ALOT of purple coins

[@samnelson6509]

The text that shows up when you defeat a castle is also very reminiscent of Mario World! Where it says "and so Mario and party continue on their adventure". I just realized that

Here’s a tip if the screen fades to black, that means it’s a death pit but if it doesn’t, it’s a secret

[@cjlite0210]

11:33 If we're talking all Mario games, then the last time would be Marip Maker 2, tho if you are only talking mainline, then then that would be Super Mario World! Crazy how such a good action was relegated to a goated SNES game that's now well over 25 years old

[@justahumanguy276]

Pro tip: pits that have a black bottom to them kill you. Those that don't are secrets if you go down them

[@ShadowSkyX]

I wonder if mario maker 2 will get a slight resurgence with the new stages from this game. Makes me wish they'd do a major update but theres so many new assets it'd have to be a whole new mario maker to add them all in.

[@MeIsAiden]

hopefully we get a Mario Maker 3 soon

[@SwizzleDrizzl]

I think this game drew level design inspiration from Mario Maker 1 & 2 levels, so i can definitely see them making a Mario Maker 3 with Wonder mechanics

[@get_stached]

But imagine DLC

[@jaceclegg530]

Excluding the Mario Maker games (where you can throw items upward in the Mario World game style) the last time we could throw items upward was in Mario World, the game were that feature was actually introduced.

[@JerryMustache]

“Sonic can turn into a little.. Fruit Snack.” That is the last thing I thought you would say.

I’ve just gotta say, Choctopus I’ve always loved your gameplay commentary. You’re just so funny and lovable! Plus it just adds to all the great games you decide to play for us. Thanks for making great content for us, we appreciate you 😚💕

I find it outrageous that u didnt do the special world level, i wanted to see you struggle on that level😂

[@supermarioplushboi85]

Okay, I have something to share. With the float jump badge, Yoshi becomes a broken character. Dead serious. It makes him kinda cool.

[@Infindox]

I mean Yoshi's pretty broken without it. I usually switched to the blue one if I got everything in a level but didn't get the top of the flagpole

[@cjlite0210]

Yeah, I could see this game possibly getting DLC, like the Wonder Flowers are spreas across the Mushroom Kingdom as well and Mario and co have to fix their home from the Wonder Flower's shenanigans

[@timmyp6297]

Thats because it was an experiment, and this one I am gonna guess Nintendo deemed a failure.

If i had a dollar for every time Nintendo made a game with an evil castle in the middle of the map surrounded by a floaty snakelike monster, i'd have three dollars. Wich isn't much, but its weird that it happened thrice. This game, Breath of the wild and Tears of the kingdom, when Ganondorf turns into a snakedragon demon.

Choco in the harder bullrush level there's a brick wall at the end. 3 Secret levels through there

[@Inhaledcorn]

>anticipates the Petal Isles will be heavily water based >gets the badge to wear that gives you better swimming ability >doesn't use it 🤨 Edit: The Big Flower Coins don't unlock anything, but they do count toward a level's completion. Well, they do unlock *one* thing, but it's cosmetic. If you get them all, you get a Medal next to your name. The Medals act as completion marker milestones. There's a medal for: Clearing the story Reaching the top of a flagpole on every level Collecting every Big Flower Coin Collecting every Wonder Seed Collecting every Badge Collecting every Standee I know because I've already collected all 6 medals and completed the game.

11:50 Mario word IS in fact the game where you can throw shells upwards.
