* ShoutOut: The [[VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld Reznors]] make a roar that sounds very similar to {{Godzilla}}'s.

* CoopMultiplayer: It can be played with two player, but only through Local Connection.

Known information so far includes (but is not limited to) further throwbacks to ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'' (akin to ''SuperMario3DLand'' and ''[[MarioKart Mario Kart 7]]'') -- namely, Raccoon Mario's first polygonal appearance[[hottip:*: (if you're nitpicky, it's the second one following the Raccoon Mario trophy in ''SuperSmashBrosMelee'')]] (just as ''3D Land'' did the same for Tanooki Mario) as well as the classic P-Charge Bar featured in ''Bros. 3''.

** Also, golden Fire Flowers that turn Mario gold and allow him to shoot fireballs that [[http://www.mariowiki.com/images/6/61/3DS_NewMario2_1_scrn02_E3.png turn blocks and enemies into coins]]. The game in general seems to have a strong emphasis on collecting coins.

''New Super Mario Bros 2'' is the second sequel to ''NewSuperMarioBros'', following ''NewSuperMarioBrosWii'' in that regard. The first NSMB was ''the'' side-scrolling Mario title for the NintendoDS, just as [=NSMBWii=] was for the {{Wii}}, and now [=NSMB2=] fills the same role for the Nintendo3DS.

* XMeetsY: The presence of the P-Charge bar alone is enough to declare this game the love child of ''NewSuperMarioBros'' and ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3''.

* GoldMakesEverythingShiny: Sparkly golden variations of regular enemies seem to be a prominent element in the game.
* InvincibleMinorMinion: If [[http://www.mariowiki.com/images/7/7a/NSMB2_screen3.jpg one of the first released screenshots]] is anything to go by, [[ThisIsGonnaSuck there are going to be sparkly-golden mooks this time around.]]

* ThirdIs3D: While it's not titled "New Super Mario Bros. 3", it is the third game to use the''NSMB'' name, and it has 3D functionality.

Known information so far includes (but is not limited to) that the game is akin to ''SuperMario3DLand'' and ''[[MarioKart Mario Kart 7]]'', and contains further throwbacks to ''SuperMarioBros3'' -- namely, Raccoon Mario's first polygonal appearance (just as ''3D Land'' did the same for Tanooki Mario)[[hottip:*: (if you're nitpicky, it's the second one following the Raccoon Mario trophy in ''SuperSmashBrosMelee'')]] as well as the classic P-Charge Bar featured in ''Bros. 3''.

''New Super Mario Bros 2'' is the second sequel to the first ''NewSuperMarioBros'', following ''NewSuperMarioBrosWii'' in that regard. While the first NSMB was ''the'' side-scrolling Mario title for the NintendoDS, and [=NSMBWii=] was for the {{Wii}}, [=NSMB2=] fills the same role for the Nintendo3DS.

Most notably, the game's existence was leaked in early 2012 [[http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/library/events/120127/03.html among various, typically Nintendo-like sales charts,]] as well as through [[http://www.supermario4.com a registered - and vague - domain name/HTML address]] as soon as in April in the same year. Later in the very same month of 2012, Nintendo already confirmed the game's actual title, as well as a worldwide near-simultaneous release date for August 2012. Despite the unlikeliness of such a quick development cycle, this stunt is, indeed, still impressive nonetheless.
