How ironic....

Ditto for me, BTW

It just doesn't seem worth paying form it seems like it should be the pack in game for the 3DS since it's almost like a really dumb bonus minigame
 
For me, the coins theme kind of just screams that they want your money. What is their purpose of making it coins themed?

Plus, the box art is ugly IMO. Too little contrast

What's wrong with it? The Koopalings? Why does everyone hate them so much?
Considering the Roy screenshot, I'm pretty sure they'll have different attack patterns. if Lemmy's on a ball I'll love it even more hehe!

The entire purpose is to collect coins which just screams that Nintendo was like "Hey guys I got a great idea it will make us lot's of money and we wont have to work hard." There isn't a lives system which is stupid. They brought the Koopalings and Reznor back which pretty much means that Reznor is going to be a mini boss and the Koopalings will be the actual bosses which means that there wont be any original bosses. And hell it just doesn't sound interesting going back to the premise it's about collecting coins why how are coins going to help mario defeat bowser seriously what the fuck.
 
Actually, that seemed to be incorrect.

It seems that the demos were in Coin Rush Mode, where you only get one life, and the coin counter is 4 digits.

Other gameplay videos I've seen still play the 1-up jingle when you get 100 coins.

Really last I heard they were getting rid of the lives system

And in the trailer when mario gets to the top of the pole he gets a 1-up.


Skip to 4:09, he says you get 1-ups.. Dont listen to rumors listen to your radio.
 
I too have the join the bandwagon of being rather uninterested in the money collecting extravaganza in this game. It's interesting to think about; however, I still don't see the appeal of it just yet in terms of gameplay (though it does look a lot more similar to the original NSMB game in terms of the level design).

If collecting coins is the goal point, at least hopefully this would give Nintendo the chance to make Peach playable. Though knowing them, they're likely going to add her as the damsel in distress once again whether her appearance mattered or not. It would be nice to have more playable characters though it seems like its just Mario and Luigi once again.
