GamesRadar shared some awesome videos that Nintendo has made available for Super Mario 3D Land, one of the biggest releases of the past holiday season (despite its pint-sized casing). Whether you're struggling to complete a first run through the game or you've cleared the title multiple times, the videos are recommended viewing for any Mario fanatic.

GamesRadar shared some awesome videos that Nintendo has made available for Super Mario 3D Land, one of the biggest releases of the past holiday season (despite its pint-sized casing). Whether you're struggling to complete a first run through the game or you've cleared the title multiple times, the videos are recommended viewing for any Mario fanatic.

The first video in Nintendo's "Super Play" series features a variety of secrets, including some insane speed runs, a wall jump, unlimited lives in stage 1-2 (by a very familiar means) and even a warp. Check it out.



If the first video wasn't enough, check out a second video that includes another warp, more ways to score extra lives (including a trick with Thwomp tails that feels like it could have come straight out of Super Mario Bros. 3) and some more thrilling speed runs.



It's clear that there's more to Super Mario 3D Land than most gamers suspect, even if you've cleared the expansive post-game content. As I intimated in my review, this is a full-on Mario game that fans of Nintendo's portly plumber definitely won't want to miss.

Wouldn't it be cool if Nintendo has a third and fourth similar video waiting in the wings? It's difficult to imagine, but if you'd told me about some of the stuff in the above two videos, I'm not sure I would have imagined that ahead of time, either.
