Captain Toad levels makes me reassess getting the stand alone game. They are fun little missions.

That shadow level (2-3) is top bananas :wub:

Man this is so good! Only played W1 so far but it's just so well put together.

Nintendo just really know how to effortlessly capture that playful and inventive element of gaming that most still struggle with. :wub:

Anyone tried Bowsers Fury yet? I played the first area and it shows a lot of promise

I 100% Bowser’s fury in two 4-5 hours sittings!

If this is a sign of the future of Mario (or even a third pillar) I’m all in :D

Absolutely loving this, reckon I’ll do the first lot of worlds (can’t remember if there’s 6 or 8) and then do Bowser’s Fury before doing the Star world or whatever they’re called :lol:

Could be, I have seen the postie about though do I know they are delivering at least. The tracking shopto gave me doesn’t seem to work either so I have emailed the support team to see if they can track where it is.

I bought mine from shopto eBay and it arrived yesterday. I think I got pikmin through their regular site and that arrived in time too. Might be a courier thing.

Yeah, I suspect it's a Royal Mail postal delay rather than ShopTo not posting it yet. I believe the tracker isn't a full "where is the parcel right now" one, but it just flags up as "complete" when delivered. In my experience ShopTo are pretty reliable but, as others hinted at, I think publishers are now stricter about not allowing games to be posted until the day prior to official release.

The parcel tracker with ShopTo orders shows when it reaches each mailing centre, the delivery office, and finally when it's been delivered. My copy from ShopTo arrived yesterday so I would imagine it's a case of Royal Mail being gooseberry fool as opposed to ShopTo not sending it out.

Does anyone know if it’s worthwhile hitting the very top of the flagpole and getting a golden completion for each level, does that unlock anything? Or would it just be the Green Stars.

There is a certain thing that can only be accessed with all green stars, all stamps and all gold flags
