Nintendo HyperSphere:New Super Mario Bros. 3

New Super Mario Bros. 3 is a pseudo-3D (or 2.5D; 3D sprites on a 2D plane) platform game developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo HyperSphere. It is the thirteenth instalment of the Super Mario series, eight instalment in the Super Mario Bros. series and fifth instalment in the New Super Mario Bros. series.
==Story==
Bowser tries to kidnap Princess Peach and invade the Mushroom Kingdom once more, following his defeat on New Super Mario Bros. U. Bowser kidnaps Peach and Mario tries to defeat Bowser, but Mario fails and Bowser claim the throne of the Mushroom Kingdom, replaces the Mushroom Parliament with his Koopa minions and forced Mario to exile in the Mushroom Plains. So Mario takes action fighting the Koopalings, which are puppet monarchs of the Mushroom Kingdom's protectorates and returns to the Mushroom Kingdom to defeat Bowser again, but escapes to his own castle for a final match, until Bowser is defeated and Peach is saved.
==Gameplay==
You have the option to play as Mario, Luigi, Wario, Blue Toad, Yellow Toad or your personal avatar (Mii) and the goal is to reach the end of the game and defeat the bosses on each world. You can also play as Peach if you finish the whole game and play levels in Peach's Castle by playing older games in the 2D Super Mario series, only slightly harder. Yoshi and Birdo is back as you can ride on it. You can breed Yoshis with the corresponding gender produce different Yoshis with different powers. Yoshis captured can be used in the game or stored at the Miiverse.
The goal of the game is to reach the end of each level by collecting a card, which is either a star, mushroom, flower or boo. You can collect upto 5 before resetting. Depending on each order and consecutive type of cards in a row, you can get prizes or misfortune. There are two towers in each 9 levels where you fight Bowser Jr., few flying ships that scatter across the map and a castle where you fight the Koopalings. Some worlds also have haunted houses in which you have to fight King Boo in order to pass. In the castle of Level 9, it features alternating gravity, large gaps, appearing blocks, slippery platforms and various enemies. At the first half of the castle, you have to fight Bowser Jr. Near the end, you have to fight all the Koopalings before entering the room to fight Bowser and Bowser Jr. At first Bowser is in its regular form until he falls into the pit, in which he turns into Dry Bowser and fight on appearing flying platforms under a spiked ceiling. Then after defeat, he turns into a giant and the only way to defeat him is to find a certain block which has a denotaton switch, which will blow up the castle under a certain time limit. After that, Mario is supposed to leave the castle until time runs out.
In the game you can collect yellow coins (100 yellow coins gives the player an extra life), which can go to stored in a bank. You use coins in order to purchase power-ups, and building materials for custom levels. And each coin is worth 100 points in the score. You can also collect blue coins converted from bricks for a short period of time by activating a special switch (which is worth 5 yellow coins), and 8 red coins which appear for a limited after going through a red ring, which will give you a random power-up after they are collected within time. You also have to collect 5 star coins in the games hidden area (which will buy levels in World 10).
Sometimes, there will be a Mushroom House that Mario can come in. Red houses serve as stores where Mario can purchase power-ups using yellow coins. Other houses can give you prizes or misfortune by playing a game of chance (such as trying to make a difficult jump to hit flying "?" Blocks).
If you die you loose a life (by falling of a pit or getting hit one as regular Mario or mini Mario). If you loose all of your lives, you have to restart to the beginning of the current world you are in.
Apart from adventure mode, you can create custom levels in which you can transfer locally or online and play in Time Attack where you can try to clear the level as fast as you can and race against your ghost with unlimited timing, and VS modes, such as Coin Collection in which you have to get as much coins as possible within an elapse time and Survival, where you are given 1 to 99 lives and you have to kill the opponents from all of their remaining lives and keep yourself safe, and you can play by multiplayer and online. You can also play these modes on the games default levels.
