Line 5:
Less than a year prior to New Super Mario Bros. 2's release was Super Mario 3D Land's release, and, considering I'd loved the cape in Super Mario World and the Tanooki Suit in Super Mario Bros. 3, I purchased both games. There was only so much to do in Super Mario 3D Land, and I 100% completed it in less than a week (granted, I did spend almost half of my week playing it, and another quarter playing Mario Kart 7 and messing around with the features of my newly acquired 3DS), leaving me waiting for the next Mario game to come out, eager for something else to do. This explains why I was so eager to get NSMB2 that I got it on the release date, which was August 19th for those who didn't know. Well, August 19th in America. I'm not quite sure when it was released in Japan.
I looked at the downloadable version's price, and then I went to my GameStop to see if someone had purchased it, decided they didn't like it, and brought it to GameStop, and, sure enough, some people did. In fact, they had 1 returned copy left, but there was no picture on the front, rather a really crappy label that read
At the time, this didn't bother me much, and I bought it anyways. It was a dollar cheaper than the downloadable version, which was $39.99 if my memory serves me correctly, and I'm one for saving money, even if it's only a dollar. When I went to the counter to purchase it, the cashier didn't freak out about how I should just take it for free or anything, he just told me that I was 38 dollars and 99 cents in the hole, so I paid for the game, gave the cashier a three-dollar-tip, and left the store.
Line 19:
After turning the system on and off again several more times, thinking it was a glitch, I realized nothing would change and decided to select the game. When I did, however, the console shut off again, making a loud popping noise as it did. It turned back on 1 or 2 seconds later. When the console restarted, I started on the main menu of the game, looking as I had seen it on GameXplain and various other videos I'd seen on YouTube. When I selected the first option, however, there was 1 used file, the third one, but Mario's face wasn't on the file, rather the picture of the extremely demonic Yoshi from the logo.
There was 1 available file, the first one. The second one was simply grayed out with the words
To my surprise, the guy had already 100% completed the game, and he'd collected several million coins, something I'd somehow missed at the Main Menu. One thing I did wonder was
He was in the Star World. I touched the World 1 icon on the touch screen, but found myself being teleported to the New Super Mario Bros. Wii world map. This really didn't bother me that much except for the fact that the fortress looked like the New Super Mario Bros. Wii one as opposed to the New Super Mario Bros. one and the one I'd seen in the Star World. I entered the first level and played through it.
Line 27:
It played through just as it had in the various videos of it I'd seen on YouTube, but with different graphics. The question marks on the ? blocks were written in blood, as it appeared, and whenever I stomped on a goomba or burned a koopa, there would be a small blood stain on the screen where that enemy was. I beat the level with 2 star coins, 666 coins, and 333 seconds remaining. (By the way, 2 divided into 666 is 333)
Right then, a message box popped up and read
This next part is where I decided this was either a hacked copy or a haunted copy.
Line 83:
They finished Luigi off and looked up to see Mario. They started chasing him. Mario starting running backwards through the level, as Luigi mutated in Igiul (Eej-ih-wol). Igiul, Ihsoy, and Hcaep Ssecnirp chased Mario backwards through the level until Mario got to a good place to attempt to jump over the three of the demon characters. Unfortunately, by the time Mario started to jump, Igiul, Ihsoy, and Hcaep Ssecnirp had struck Mario down and started to tear him apart.
This is where this game got really weird. Apparently, Bowser had heard about what was going on and decided no one was allowed to
The level was exited and I was taken to the world map as Mario flew past a few levels to World 4-5.
