New Super Mario Bros.

From what I read in Nintendo Power, I got the impression that they are using the Mario Sunshine version. They said one of Mario's abilities was the wall jump, which was introduced in Sunshine. I might have remembered wrong, and I don't have the mag here to verify. Well, assuming that it is the Sunshine version, then I think it means the wall slide type, similar to Megaman X. Otherwise, it might be referring to the multiple wall jumps that allow Mario to travel up a narrow vertical passage, since I don't think you can do more than 1 wall jump in a row for SM64.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Hehe, yeah, shows how little I know about SM64. I only remember doing single wall jumps in it. Oh, and I'm pretty sure Sunshine had wall slide, and that came before SM64DS, so I'm going to assume NP was referring to this.

I don't think it's a good idea, I can't seem to imagine a scrolling Mario game with wall slide. Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait and see how it turns out.

How ya doing, buddy?
