Nintendo has revealed the fairly predictable plot for the forthcoming New Super Mario Bros 2 for the Nintendo 3DS. The information was posted on the official New Super Mario Bros 2 Japanese website, which is well worth a look. Here’s the plot details for the game which nearly got a perfect score from Japanese gaming bible Famitsu.
“Trouble always seems to find its way to the Mushroom Kingdom! Just as Mario and Luigi go off on a coin hunt in the sky, their beloved Princess Peach™ is kidnapped by the dastardly Koopalings. The brothers have to venture through over 80 stages to rescue her, grabbing an endless deluge of coins across land, water, air, and snow along the way.”

I wished the coin collecting tied in with the Princess Kidnapping Plot.
They were just coincidentally already collecting coins?
PLOT
Koopalings captures Peach. Mario and Luigi must save her. -_- typical Mario plot still awesome.
GET 1,000,000 COINS AND SHE’LL BE YOUR BITCH FOR A NIGHT. true story.
Anyone will be your bitch for a night if you had 1 million coins
1000000 gets you a Mario luigi tag team
Exactly. I think that maybe they should have to harness the power of coins or something.
Wow, sounds really new and different! I’m glad this article was made. It wasn’t a waste of time at all!
I am legitimately shocked.
Sounds like an action pack thriller! xD
Haha. Sure does.
The whole coin gathering thing makes it sound like a Wario game…
Wario should be in this game. Honestly, Nintendo are barely using him anymore.
Waluigi says hi
No one cares about Waluigi, he was created to be a partner to Wario in sports games. He’s hardly a Nintendo character.
He was created by Nintendo. Just because you don’t like him doesn’t mean he isn’t a Nintendo character.
Wait, they fucking kidnapped her? Holy SHIT.
OMFG I AM SO SURPRISED !!!! I NEVER SAW THIS COMMING !!!
Why I am not suprised? Why the hell there are only 3 mario games where the plot doesn’t involve Peach getting kidnapped?
Actually 5.
Now, I made my mind! There are 4 mario games that doesn’t involve peach getting kidnapped! The Mario & Luigi Trilogy plus Super Paper Mario.
The beginning of Super Paper Mario has Peach kidnapped, does that count?
And there’s still SMW: Yoshi’s island. And Yoshi’s Island DS.
They’re spin-offs. Sorry, but every main-series Mario game involves Peach’s capture.
Wait, Super Mario Bros. 2 doesn’t have Peach kidnapped!
And don’t say “It was a dream” because it still counts.
it not did U read the whole plot yet?
the super mario bros 2 isn’t the original one, it’s in fact doki doki panic with a mario make over. I think the princess does get kidnapped in the original smb2(known as the lost levels here).
Not Super Mario Land. Daisy was kidnapped in that one.
Same with Super Mario Land 2. It was a building that was kidnapped in that one.
The Mario and Luigi Trilogy all involve Peach getting kidnapped at some point (with the exception of Bowser’s Inside Story).
Peach didn’t get kidnapped in Super Mario Land.
I believe we are all forgetting one of the best games in the main series. Mario’s Early Years: Preschool Fun.
or mario is missing?
Yes. Best game ever.
Mario bros. 2
I wonder what would be more surprising: NSMBU having the PKP (Princess Kidnapping Plot), or a slightly original plot…
I’m surprised they didn’t go the obvious of Bowser ransoming Peach. Say for half a million coins. It’d make more sense to me. I personally think the best plot was that Bowser kidnapped Peach (or Koopalings whatever) then Wario either buys her for a low price or captures her and ransoms her for an amount to return her to Mario.
That’s so true! This would make so much sense….
Peach got kidnapped?!
Nintendo went too far this time :O
Well thats a Mario game for ya! Same storyline, but NEVER GETS OLD :D
Kidnapped! Nintendo are definitely not rehashing stories…
I like how you put “rehash” there as if it means anything.
And if you just realized that they have been “rehashing” stories, might I suggest being born earlier than yesterday?
but he put “rehash” there because it does actually mean something. They’re rehashing the story because they’re too greedy and lazy to come up with something actually decent.

Because Mario saving the princess is a new thing. Why is this a huge issue all of a sudden?
dont forget that peach saved mario in super princess peach!
But this isn’t a Super Princess Peach game.
Since when people expect a plot from a mario platformer?
Haha I get it the title was a joke.
Why is Peach a trademark? o_O
Nintendo is secretly in the peach orchard business.
That and if they didn’t trademark Princess Peach someone is bound to use is just because it’s a very well known name.
Can’t the be just a tad more creative than this??????
They could but then people would complain that they liked the old plot better.
yup -.-
They should have made it so that the brothers had to collect the coins as a ransom for bowser but the koopalings wanna keep their new “mommy”, so they get in the way.
Then any special stages (after defeating the koopalings and handing over the ransom), would involve trying to stop Bowsers new plan which involved the ransom (taking over mushroom kingdom etc)
Same way Pokemon’s Ash started off kinda cool and now he’s gone from loser to international loser, Mario needs to evolve in some way. Doing the same thing every time’s losing its appeal…
I love the old Pokemon episodes. They always were cool and Ash was awesome. But now he just acting stupid. And the new ones suck. But for the games I think they get better.
They do- I actually said ‘Wow’ after I beat Ghetsis and N said his farewell. The games aren’t the problem; Black and White are my favorite Pokemon adventures to date.
meh pokemon show better than today cartoons unlike the fucking naked animals (what happen to cartoon network?)
Losing uts appeal? Every Mario game sells a lot of copies. NSMB on DS is the bset sellung game on the console, NSMBW too. So I can predict that NSMB2 & NSMBU will be the best selling games of 3DS & Wii U respectively.
plus there early on the consoles (both) life cycle, that will sell endlessly. don’t U agree?
It’s not the destination that makes something good, it’s the journey getting there.
Am I the only one who payed attention to the 80 levels part lol sounds good enough to buy for me. But I don’t know how this compares to other Mario games so it might still be short lol
i agree
I’m pretty sure it would be the same as the other games.
8 worlds means 10 levels per world
2 of those levels will be the boss levels (because you always have to fight the boss twice) so 8 non-boss levels per world
I’m going to assume 2 levels per world will be optional so 6 mandatory levels (3 levels, a boss, 3 levels, a boss)
It’s been a while so I’m not really sure how that compares to the other games…
Impressive.
Well isnt that a breath of fresh fucking air!
Riveting story indeed. But seriously, we don’t play 2D Mario for the plot.
I play it for the awesome story.
i played it for the gameplay, its called a video game for a reason.
I… was… just… kidding…
i know i know, but im just saying that why i love video games from Nintendo, because of there gameplay they offered.
Oh now I get it. Yeah I never care about the story to much.
Thy should have made it where you could play as peach instead.
Sad. I was hoping for a story like this:
PEACH: Mario if you want some of my princess ass and tits it will cost you.
MARIO: How much princess Peach?
PEACH: Mmm. 1000000 coins. And do not forget to bring Yoshi. He is good in licking.
*after Mario collected all coins*
MARIO: Mamamia, here I cum again.
Who agrees?
What over 80 stages? I bet that means 81.
I love Mario games, but did they really need to tell us what the plot is going to be. It always tends to be the same.
Blackabe 111…I like your story better…..LOL..
It is a master piece. I know.
It’s about time that Mario stops saving her. She deserves to be kidnapped after all the work Mario has to go through only for her to let herself be captured again.
How about this Mario? Collect all those coins, find yourself a new woman, and take a vacation far, far away from the Mushroom kingdom. lol
Sorry, but Peach gives secret helpings to Mario while she’s kidnapped. 1ups, Powerups, coins, all that jazz. Besides, imagine one game where Peach actually successfully escapes from Bowser AND joins Mario on his quest to stop Bowser.
You would think she could use some of those perks to help herself out of captivity.
It truly is a sad life for the man, is it not? Having to rescue his lover for all eternity. It will never end. It’s like a cycle, it’ll just repeat. Soon he will go insane…
I wish they would change the plot, like what about Wario and Waluigi take over the mushroom kingdom holding Peach and Daisy hostage until Mario or Luigi can cough up the coin’s
I sincerely hope, then, that she isn’t kidnapped in NSMBU.
Can Nintendo PLEASE try something different? They don’t even have to think very hard. Just have Bowser find some kind of macguffin to take over the Mushroom Kingdom, or the destroy it, or something, or ANYTHING other than Princess Peach getting kidnapped again. She’s the lead female character in the world’s most popular gaming franchise, they really shouldn’t be making her out to be some helpless damsel in distress every time. The RPGs and sports/karting spin-offs have made Peach out to be a competent, talented fighter, why can’t the platformers do the same? In fact, why can’t she be a playable character in NSMBU, as we have a callback to SMB2 by having the roster be Mario, Luigi, Peach and Toad (THE Toad), instead of two random Toads nobody gives an iota of a crap about?
at this point I don’t any one cares for a plat in a main mario game. Its how you get to the end what we all typically care for.
I can’t wait for this story it’s going to be the best story in any video game ever.
I always felt this game was meant for Wario. He loves coins and will harm anybody just to get his hands on coins.
One thing of interest here: Bowser isn’t mentioned once, and I haven’t seen him in any footage so far. It could mean nothing and turn out we either see him, it’s Bowser Jr.’s plot or it’s entirely the Koopalings’ plot. Still, part of me is hoping Wario hired the Koopalings.
like anybody who plays these new mario bros games give a fuck about its story.
plot that they should have used:
they kidnap peach and they ask for 1 million coins which you get through the game and you need to enter the final stage. once you enter they get the coins and start attacking you (obviously a trap) then you beat them and rescue peach , better?…

Now Nintendo, this is truly a unique story for the ages. People will tell their children for generations to come of how Mario rescued Princess Peach.
For the full two player co-op game, will we need 1 game card or both players have to have their copy of the game?
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
would have been better if wario kidnapped princess peach for a ransom of 10 million coins and mario has to collect the coins for an actual reason
to get peach back and to enter warios gold stash or something
