Gaming Super Mario 3D Land should have had Multiplayer

[iggloovortex]

So im playing the game, and its great and fun, but ive played for maybe 3-4 hours? and im already at world 4, collecting all the coins.
and it should have had multiplayer. My favorite part of New Super Mario Bros DS was the multiplayer.
My friends and I having tournaments and such. (I was the best)

Not to mention, im literally sprinting through every level naturally collecting everything,
either killing or avoiding enemies, and most of the time i get all of the star coins on my first run through.
Im also getting a one up on every pole.

I'm not saying this game isnt good, but a seasoned platformer & gamer like myself would find this game too easy,

What are you guys' thoughts?

I'm on world 5 and would agree that it's too easy but apparently it gets hard on world 8 or something.

I think the games gives out too much 1-ups that makes it so easy.

Mario 3D Land is designed for one player only. I don't really find the need for multiplayer for such a game.

And S2 onwards is REALLY TOUGH.

But at that point im already done with the game basically

And S2 onwards is REALLY TOUGH.

S2?! what is this S2 you speak of?

I think the games gives out too much 1-ups that makes it so easy.

This is only a part of it. i mean i do have 60 lives, without cheating or using shell to wall, but still if they killed me more then lives wouldnt be

IF you want to know what S2 is, do it at your own risk:

Spoiler

After beating the game, there are 8 more special worlds to play which are really intense. You also get to unlock Luigi in them.

Spoiler

There are 2 parts to World 8 and the 2nd half is where stuff gets real.

I suck at mario games, unless their N64 styled or wii-galaxy styled. Well i prefer to be a loner, but having multiplayer is defintively a plus.

I sorta wish I hadn't known what S2 and stuff was before I got the game, but oh well. It's still a great game, even without a multiplayer mode. You can still compete for the fastest time on levels through Streetpass though. That's kinda fun!

 

[iggloovortex]

Ok S2 seems like it'll be worth it. thanks guys, but even then multiplayer wouldve made this game golden

EDIT: HOLY SHIT World 4 boss was different! and seemed to mean serious business, at least since i didnt know how they were going to fight

EDIT2: started World 4 with 64 lives, finished with 85

It doesn't get hard at all, the game was WAY to short, Easy, and predictable... buy hey it's MARIO! what did we expect :-) I can't wait for a new Zelda Yay!
