My friends, I come bearing good news from Nintendo Power: First and foremost, the "auto-play" feature won't be accessible until you fail the level in question a certain number of times. Additionally, the Penguin Suit is just an Ice Flower/Blue Shell hybrid which combines the former's ice-chucking abilities with the latter's belly-sliding and enhanced swimming features.

So Penguins can belly slide in desert areas?

You learn something new every day.

I heard it was eight, therefore in some cases requiring you get a Game Over. I thought that had already been posted here, though.

Yeah, it had (well, a link concerning it), and yes, the "Super Guide" will only show up if you die eight times in a row. If it never shows up, though, you get... a different title screen.

As for that tidbit concerning the Penguin Suit, I could already tell that from the first videos.

Also, just for the record, "the Toad" = the Mario equivalent of the Picori now.

Having never played Minish Cap before (even though I really want to), all I know of the Picori is that they're some kind of mouse creature.

The game explains that they're the ones who hide items and Rupees in bushes.

I sure am glad Nintendo decided to make Peach unplayable since the developers would need to program and animate her dress. I mean that's a ton of effort, how could a game development team ever hope to put in enough effort for something as complex as a dress? I wouldn't want them to stress themselves out.

She's kidnapped.

So it would have to have been Daisy.

When I went back and actually read that interview for myself, Miyamoto was obviously joking about the dress.

Looks like I was right about the Penguin Suit being used for swimming better.

But that's all the bragging from me.

Possibly NSFW.

Oh, and

Well, you don't want kids trying to eat coins like Yoshi is trying to do. They could catch Nickel Poison.

Maybe "small parts" refers to certain characters that only play minor roles in the game, a concept so complex for toddlers to grasp that they'll choke on the triangular exclamation mark-sign they're eating.

Weegee · « **Reply #328 on:** October 23, 2009, 09:25:19 PM »

Actually, "small parts" refers to the exploded fragments of my head from seeing that Nintendo is actually using that hideous red box art.
