I'm probably not following the current conversation on this thread, but Super Mario 3D World is definitely on my Christmas list.

The less you know about the Champion's Road, the better
 
We have triple crown lives when we entered the level. When we beat it, we have only about 600 lives left.

TOO much of those lives came from bubble popping and head bumping over the abyss/spiked walls
 
We also deliberately killed ourselves so we can restore to normal form.

Most of our deaths came from the Beat Block part.
 
I watched a video of the final boss battle against "Meowser", and while I do like the concept of Bowser using the power-ups to battle Mario and friends, I would have prefered a more "physical" battle, where you would have to use different power-ups to hit Bowser directly. My favorite final battle of any videogame is the Gruntilda battle at the end of Banjo-Kazooie, where every ability is used to directly damage Grunty. I'd like to see something like that where you hit Bowser directly instead of being chased by him until you get to something that defeats him instantly.
 
POW blocks are still better than the switch because you ARE damaging technically with the POW block.
 
I wish there was a fight where you used a Mega Mushroom and then proceed to beat the crap out of Bowser. It's battle you can't lose. Or, maybe it should be credits sequence instead.

Ooh, I'd love that during a credits sequence. I could imagine you chasing him and getting points each time you ran into him or something.
 
;D And hitting him enough times will net you extra lives, I guess.
