NSMBU – Story Mode Completed

Well I went back and found the two exits I was missing. It turned out both of them were in the Soda Jungle world. And one of them wasn’t even a secret exit, it was the regular exit! I had found the secret exit when I first completed the level and never actually did the regular exit. The regular exit just makes a path that goes in a pointless circle, so I guess that explains why I didn’t notice anything missing there.

Wow, I hated the annoying doorbell sound of that Super Guide block. I hope they let you disable it completely (so it doesn’t even show up) in future games.

They seem to be all about doing things as fast as possible, like a speed run. So it comes down to memorizing the exact route to take to shave a tenth of a second off your time, and performing everything flawlessly. That type of thing doesn’t really appeal to me, but I’ll give those modes another chance before I write my review of the game.
