Could the re-emergence of this old-school power-up also mean that more familiar Mario suits of old are getting ready to appear in Super Mario 3DS? According to Super Mario director Yoshiaki Koizumi, even more Mario costumes from the series’ past will be usable in the upcoming 3DS installment.
This news broke during a recent interview with Official Nintendo Magazine, but Koizumi assured fans that they won’t be putting in iconic power ups in Super Mario 3DS just because they can. Instead, they’ve analyzed what suits work in the game, and why they make sense as a logical inclusion.
Koizumi wouldn’t go into detail regarding which suits may be making their triumphant return, but he made it seem like Nintendo was putting a lot of thought and consideration into which suits work best in certain areas.
“But I can say that we will definitely have some more familiar suits than just the Tanooki Suit.”
Here’s hoping for the Frog Suit and Kuribo’s Shoe. Hell, the infamous Metal Cap of Mario 64 fame would be a pretty cool addition too!
