I had to render this video multiple times to get it out, yet still forgot to add suitable footage @ 06:02 :( i am sorry to disappoint and hopefully this doesn't ruin the video for anyone.

As a kid, If I couldn’t get past a Mario level after more than 5 tries, I used a unique power up that was only available to certain players. It was called the “Older Sibling Power up” it was very useful but occasionally it would cause a glitch where it wouldn’t give control back to the original player again.

People never talk about this game and that’s a real shame. I completed it recently and really liked it. Obviously it’s not as good as 3d world but on its own merits it’s really fun and you can beat it in a day without too many issues

I always thought that it was a huge shame that 3d land basically got overshadowed by 3d world on the wii u and was therefore basically forgotten about but 3d lands one of my favourite mario games it controls so good and the levels are fun

Small Mario losing his cap is probably a reference to how you become weaker in Super Mario 64 after losing your cap. Also, this game doesn't have the triple jump, but if you make 3 consecutive jumps, the third jump will always have a slightly different animation.

Super Mario 3D Land still has my favorite Bowser battle ever. From the DK barrel reference to Bowser jumping back up with pink flames to boot to the bridge sequence, it's such an amazing experience.

As someone who hasnt fully played any of the Mario games since 64. 3D Land and World always seemed to get hated on just because they were a combination of the playstyles of 2D and 3D Mario games and not a full fledged new 3D Mario like Odyssey eventually was. But it seems like people are now starting to appreciate the games for what they were.

It’s great to see more people talking about and revisiting this game. It’s really underrated in my opinion. It could be the nostalgia talking, but the levels in this game were iconic for me.

A slight correction The 3ds circle pad actually does allow for full analog movement in most of the games that utilize it 3d land is one of the few exceptions. 3d land was likely programmed that way to mimic 2d Mario more closely. Because those games have digital movement and a run button. Monster hunter (all of them) Xenoblade 3d Even 2d platformers llke metroid Samus returns And top down games like a link between worlds And many more games all have full analog movment with the circle pad

“I thought I’d give you a shorter video” clocks in at over 30 mins. KZfaq has changed SO much.

Super Mario 3D Land for me is a landmark title. It was my first ever handheld game. The Red Limited Edition 3DS I have comes with the game installed, and I played it quite a LOT when I was a child. It's by far the most played game on 3DS. Super Mario 3D Land to me is what an ideal 3D Mario game with classic elements should look like and play like. The short and sweetness of the levels makes it a frequent in my eyes, especially since every stage measures your fastest time, which I have spent many hours as a child speedrunning every stage, getting some amazing times. The moveset in this game is that of the aforementioned Galaxy games, and I've used this moveset to play the game in many interesting ways. Many of the levels in this game are quite fun to play through like World 1-4, World 5-4, Special World 4-3, Special World 4-4, Special World 6-3, etc. The game has one of the best soundtracks from any mainline Mario title. Special World 8 in particular is my favorite track from this game, moreso the crown version than the normal version. This forgotten gem of a Mario game is a title that I see as a Top 5 Mario game, and potentially, one of the best games that I have ever played.

I never realised as a kid that they were clone bowsers. I thought they just survived the lava like the real bowser did at the end.

Luigi does still have his higher jumps and slippery movement. His normal jump is like Mario’s full jump. His full jump is only just slightly higher than his normal one. His differences aren’t as noticeable in previous games, but they are there.

great video Storyteller Jaeru, i really liked that blurry effect and brown filter, it makes the gameplay feel... nostalgic. In fact, i had this game back in my younger days too, though i only remember it in a blurry fashion.

I’m also pretty nostalgic for this game and I love the level design. Almost each level feels unique and has an interesting challenge that isn’t just running straight to the end.

I loved this game as a kid, I got the game in 2011 for Christmas so basically 2012 at 7, and I played the heck out of the game. 3D land is one of the best Mario games no one talks about, and I recently got the game again and 100% it. I really hope that they remaster it someday but sadly I'm not keeping my fingers crossed.

It's hard for me to conceptualize that 3D Land is technically one of our childhood games. How the hell was I 12 when this came out..?

As a kid, I always very much enjoyed 3-D land because of the entire extra game with the special worlds

I read the thumbnail as “super has Mario 3d land aged well”

"Do you feel old yet?" I was 10 when SMB3 came out and now I'm an arthritic adult. Yes, I definitely feel old.

When I first encountered the P Wing Block as a kid, I thought it was an insult as in saying I suck at the game lol As a result, I always avoid White Leafs & P Wings, no matter what the case is

Super underrated game in my opinion. Not as good as the Galaxy games or 3D World but it holds up very well, especially being on the 3DS and all.

I like the "skip level" power ups, for me right now, as an adult, Ill just ignore them, but for small kids that are going to be stuck at every single level they go through, it can help them not be stuck on the first 2 worlds. As a kid I played a lot of sm64, and guess what, I never made it past the basement, cause it was too hard, later as an adult I replayed sm64, and got to play all the levels in the top floor that I had never even seen, and they were such great levels. If there was a skip level powerup on sm64, Id be able to skip the few stars I did get stuck on, and then Id see the cool levels that come after it.

as someone who finished the game a few months ago, i actually enjoyed this way more than nsmb2, 3d Land feels amazing and playing and replaying levels actually feel fun. probably one of my best experiences with the 3ds

This was the first Mario jump n' run I ever played, and I love it so much

17:58 3D Land allows for movement in 16 directions while 3D World only has 8 directions

I was 16 years old when Mario 3D Land came out. I remember going to Best Buy to get it and I was so wowed by having a full 3D Mario game on the go.

Am I the only only one who red it like “super has Mario 3d land aged well?”

Great video, I see a lot of potential on your channel!

3D Land is a burger and chips from a famous chef using quickly brought store ingredients, 3D world is that same burger and chips from that chef but using higher quality ingredients, 3D world+Bowsers Fury is that same burger and chips but made with the famous chefs personally selected ingredients in their home kitchen and they are throwing in a hand made chocolate cake for dessert,

14:42 “Do you feel old yet?” Just seeing that Gmod picture made me feel old

This is maybe my second favorite Mario after Galaxy 2. From a single player perspective, I think this game is WAY more fun than 3D World even as much as I like that game.

This game is underrated.

This was the first mario game I owned as a kid and I absolutely loved it, going back to it today I'd still say it holds up well especially for a 3ds game

the upscaled footage made me realiize how much I loved the art from this game

Since I was little, this game always brought joy to my face. Happy to see it get its well-deserved recognition

idc what anyone says this is my favorite mario game it’s so nostalgic along with mario 64

Excellent video bro, I really like Mario games and hearing people talk about them whether it's speed running, icebergs, thoughts on the games or whatever.... Cool voice too, subbed and look forward to more videos from you :)

i remember getting a 3ds and mario 3d land for christmas. and i even remember prior playing it on a display and my parents asking me if i wanted it. i didt think i would it was such a fun experience and learning about the coins later one made me replay all the levels and figure out the secrets ones myself

Mario 3d land feels like the Mario 3 of the 3d Mario’s which is why I think they named it that way. It was the best 3d Mario in my opinion. It was simple straight forward gameplay and I loved it. Just wish it was a little longer.

It absolutely has. Hearing you call it a childhood game makes me feel old as hell!

14:56 that’s actually how the Super Leaf looked like in Super Mario Bros. 3.

Good video just a small detail you got wrong is that the leaf originally used in the leaf cup is the exact sprite used just a 3d model instead of a sprite. It was then redesigned for this game, but since mk ds came out before this game you can't really hold it against that game.

I might be one of the only people with this opinion but I liked the tighter level design of 3D land more than the larger scale levels in 3D world

amazing video nothing else to say you sir just gained a new sub

I 100% beat this game and New Bros. 2 back in the day. I'm in the middle of doing it again.

the level design is a lot tighter than 3D World for me.

This was one of my favorite games as I child. I even have a 100% completed file with 0 deaths.

Super Has Mario 3D Land Aged Well is my favorite game.

21:00 the thing is that the Special Leaf (and P. Wing) is optional and i see it as a organic difficulty setting also you can't 100% complete the game if you use the power-up so people that want a challanging expierence wont use it

I read the title as “Super has Mario 3D Land Aged Well?

Nice analysis video, I've bought this game for the first time last year and and thought wait why am I playing this when I have Super Mario 3D World for switch but after your video I'm thinking a bit different. I think 3D Land deserves its own shine in the spotlight for being the first step to innovative 3D platformers can do especially when it comes to level design as you pointed out. I think I'll revisit the game and 100% my save file. Thank you for this interesting video and I believe you earned a sub and I hope to see some other in-depth analysis video's of other Nintendo titles.

You can actually get infinite lives off of Pom Pom

Super has Mario 3D land aged well?

Excellent video. One random question I have about it though: What's with the dig at 3D World's graphics at 32:28? I won't deny that there are some rough spots here and there, but you used an image of Spiky Spike Bridge, which I will go on record to say is the single most astoundingly gorgeous level in the game (that I've played so far). So you've got me a little confused there.

I got my 3DS xl for my 7th birthday and it was the best gift I can ever have. A bundled game with Mario Kart 7 and later on getting Mario 3D Land. So much hours I’ve played nostalgia.

Played it for the first time a month ago, on the 2013 wiiU version. Yes it still 1000% holds up

This is my favorite video game of all time and it always makes me sad because nobody actually cares about it this is the most underrated 3D mario Game and you cannot change my mind

I just read the thumbnail "Super has Mario 3D Land Ages Well" ...

11:03 Bro said “shunshine”

if u turn on the 3D the pictures actually move by shaking the 3Ds

“Childhood favorites?” 😭 I was 27 when it came out

No one forgot about 3d world because they ported it to the switch with bowsers fury

I disagree on the invencibility leaf part. Some kids are just too bad, to the point they can't finish a level without help, that aid is good for *who wants it*, because I don't see the game forcing you to use it (making your point of the game getting boring due to the help invalid) I think that everyone should enjoy their game even if they're not good at it, If they're having fun let them be.

0:08 same *also lol mario tree d land*

The thumbnail: super has mario 3d land aged well

This was my first nintendo game so this game has a special place in my heart. Loved it to bits back then and got it a few months ago with a new 3ds

Since 3d world+Bowser's fury, I feel like everyone forgot about this game even more than when the original came out, even though it still is original.

"My childhood favorit game" ... god I'm old

I've never forget this game and I've seeing a lot of easter egg and finished the game a hungre of time

The only part of this game that did NOT age well was the SPECIAL SUB-AREA MUSIC. This song was used for LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE NINTENDO COMMERCIAL FROM 2011-2016. And it didn't help that it was reused for 3D World.

I recently bought used 3ds and this game was first I ever completed along with new smb2. I had a blast

why the hell you have 324 subscribers? you have to have more. like this is so good! keep going and you will make a viral video

The game was okay when I had it, but once I got a Wii U with Super Mario 3D World I fell in love with it and I still think that 3D World is the best game ever made next to Chrono Trigger.

This was one of my first 3ds games. I love it and still have my copy of it

I adored this game when I was younger, I can still say I love it.

Its the most forgotten 3d mario game

I too agree that Super Has Mario 3D Land Aged Well. Very informative video

I genuinely don't get people's complaints of the super leaf, you feel patronized when it's offered to you, yet you assume kids are too dumb to feel the same. I played this game as a kid and was very bad at it, so the golden leaf was constantly offered to me, but even as a kid I was aware how that cheapened the experience so I never used it. You know who it does help? People who possess a disability limiting their ability to play! It's just an accessibility thing you never have to touch so I will never get complaining about it when it likely let a lot of people actually experience this game, instead of having to give up halfway through world 5

Man it sucks that this game gets overshadowed, it's so cool in its own right

It hasn’t really aged well because there’s not much reason to go back to it when there’s been better before and after it, but it’s still fine and a perfectly good pick up and play game for when the mood taked

I 100%'d this a couple of months ago, and this game is insanely underrated.

Man,I love this game. It is a huge part of my childhood.It was really amazing

I swear this game came out yesterday and, now we got people nostalgic for this game? I must be old 😅

I can’t wait until you blow up and I can say I was here before 100 subs, you have amazing potential here, and you already put a lot more effort than other KZfaqrs do

It's a bit of a shame 3d land will likely be stuck on the 3ds permanently

The closed captions at 33:25 says " super monetary land " lol. Even the AI is warning us about Nintento's capitalism.

Me who had 101% the game, unlocked peach and got a seven star profile back in 2010:

Super has Mario 3d Land aged well indeed.

Say what you will about this or that, but the final battle with Bowser in 3D Land was almost too good for words.

After finishing crown world in 3D World i Player 3D Land until thr Crown Level. Both awesome games for sure

19:20 🤓 axtualy+!! There is also the ? Block power up that is only present in 8-1, 8-4 and S1-3!!

I think this was the first Super Mario game I ever 100%ed

The final boss is epic and insane, it took me 17 tries to beat this level but i didn't record it due to not having a electronic to record it and like i said before, the tanuki gold is cheating so i decided not to use it since i had 88 lives so i loss 17 lives which it's count 71 lives left so i decided not give up and keep going so basically the final chase can be like that you were breaking the fourth wall and Bowser punch me and i was to be tiny mario which it was huge error because i hate when Peach picked up little mario because he was a genious so i decided to vomit after the ending is over but i decided to turn off the volume because i dont like credits theme song so i decided to use electronic music as a celebration to beat this game, also that game had aged so well during 2022. Also as a fact Bowser getaway by flying away the 1st castle which it was a bug/reference to GTA SA which that means it was flying away on the mission black project by using jetpack and the mission Green Goo as same with Jetpack and kill the military on the train in order to get the Green goo project which it was being a comparison to the 1st castle world 8, back on the Super Mario 3D Land, this game had a masterpiece which i am played back on 2018 and i am collect over 107 stars since it is hard to collect them then i know it was a bug happening but i didn't record the bug due to not having something to record and when the painful part was the cliff because i am die that part 4 times, the most easy part was reference Donkey Kong but the battle normal super mario bros, i am die 10 times and finally the chase and the 2nd part i am die 7 times which it was breaking the fourth wall and also i was wondering who got kidnapped and it was luigi and also after beating S8 World Castle, Princess Peach gets kidnapped again which means it gonna to cost many tries double time and after 9 tries, i am defeat bowser 2.0 and save Princess Peach which means i had many question when the credits was going on, Why Luigi was in Jail, Why after beat S8 World Castle we had to save Princess Peach again and how many requirement to unlock the secret level.

Actually, Luigi is more quick, sloppier and jumps higher than Mario

makes you powerful from hits 20:00

Holy shit a Super Mario 3D Land Video Essay??? Wonderful!!

I remember doing a Luigi only run in NSMBwii, and I pretty much beat the game with all the spots being red good thing it is not hard to get infinite lives, especially in some worlds

they def used some assets and code from this game and put it into 3D world such as warp boxes., even some music tracks are the same, like underground music.
