3) This sucks
Tasty coinage out of reach? Mario's mad rotating spin jump creates a mini coin-sucking vortex and you can watch the wealth come swirling into his pockets. Or wherever it is in those dungarees that he stores the booty he's accumulated over the years.

4) You scratch my back…
The E3 demo introduced the idea of tricking the Bullet Bills homing in on Mario's behind into demolishing otherwise indestructible obstacles. It looks as if Petey Piranha (in odd T-Rex form) will also be in crystal smashing form with his bulbous tail. You can always try shooting Mario into them at skull shattering speeds with help from star cannons.

5) …I'll scratch yours
Simple noggin-bops do not always suffice. This robotic fiend requires a boot planted firmly in his metallic skull in order to retract his spiky defenses, allowing a remote flick-activated spin to ricochet him into the electric-barriers. Better be quick, he gives birth to electrified UFOs. From his mouth…

6) Where in the world
Gaze past space debris to the mysterious planet below and you might just make out the silhouette of a five-pronged star etched into the earth's surface. Reminds us of Super Mario World's Star Road - indicating that this could be set above World's Dinosaur Land. Could, we said.
