New Super Luigi U Walkthrough 100% HD - 1 Acorn Plains Vs. Boom Boom and Lemmy Koopa
What's up, community, welcome to the first part of my Let's Play / Walkthrough of New Super Luigi U for the Wii U(played on the Switch thanks to New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe). New Super Luigi U (stylized as New Super Luigi Bros. U) is a 2013 platform game developed by Nintendo for the Wii U. It is an expansion pack for New Super Mario Bros. U (2012), part of the Super Mario series. The plot and game mechanics remain identical to New Super Mario Bros. U, but Luigi replaces Mario as the protagonist. Luigi jumps higher and has less ground friction than Mario, and every level is redesigned to increase the difficulty level. The expansion adds Nabbit, a non-player character from New Super Mario Bros. U, as an invincible playable character. Nintendo's goal was to challenge preconceived notions of downloadable content (DLC) and make New Super Luigi U a game large enough to stand on its own. The developers sought to differentiate it from New Super Mario Bros. 2's (2012) DLC. The increased difficulty served to challenge series veterans, but levels were shortened to encourage less experienced players. Luigi was made the primary focus due to the Year of Luigi marketing campaign; New Super Luigi U was branded to coincide with it. It was purchasable as DLC for New Super Mario Bros. U, as a standalone game, and as a bundle with the main game. It was also included with the Nintendo Switch port, New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, in 2019. New Super Luigi U was announced in a February 2013 Nintendo Direct; digital and retail versions were released between June and August. Nintendo took multiple routes to promote the expansion and Year of Luigi, including a partnership with the Chicago Transit Authority and a parkour-themed mockumentary. New Super Luigi U received positive reviews; critics praised the difficulty and level design, but criticized Luigi's control scheme as unbalanced with the difficulty change. The multiplayer and addition of Nabbit received mixed opinions. Debut sales were overshadowed by Pikmin 3, but the expansion sold 3.07 million copies by 2020, making it the eighth-best-selling Wii U game. Once purchased, New Super Luigi U is selectable from the New Super Mario Bros. U (NSMBU) main menu. The main storyline is nearly identical to that of NSMBU, with the omission of Mario. The player controls Luigi with the goal of traversing each level from left to right to reach the end, identified with a flag pole. Throughout the levels are various enemies and hazards to hinder progression. Levels also contain power-ups that give Luigi new abilities when collected; for example, the Fire Flower allows Luigi to throw fireballs and the Flying Squirrel Suit allows Luigi to glide midair. Each level contains three "Star Coins" that serve as collectible items. Levels are split up into eight "worlds", and encounters with one of eight Koopalings occur within them. The levels are selected on an overworld map with branching paths. Compared to NSMBU, levels are redesigned to be more difficult and do not contain checkpoints, but are considerably shorter in length. The player has one hundred seconds to complete each level. Using the Wii U GamePad, the player can use its touchscreen to place down temporary platforms to stand on at their discretion. Although retaining the same control scheme as Mario, Luigi himself has less friction and slides easier, and also jumps higher and moves slower midair. Once the game is completed the player has the option to turn these physics changes off. Replacing Mario is Nabbit, originally a non-player character who appeared in NSMBU as an antagonist. Nabbit is invulnerable to enemy damage and steadily gains extra lives over time, but in return cannot use power-ups. Two other characters are also playable, yellow and blue-colored Toads, who retain the same physics from NSMBU. Each character can be played by an individual player in up to four-person multiplayer. In this first part, I complete World 1: Acorn Plains and defeat Boom Boom and Lemmy Koopa.
