Yeah, sadly enough all first party 3DS games these days tend to have just a crappy little fold out and just a digital manual.
I miss the times of reading the booking on the train on my way home... but at the same time I can always just play my new game on the way home with a handheld so I guess that's not too bad.

Looking forward to this game, if only for the sheer madness of collecting gold, gold, and more gold. I do think nintendos lazy for recycling the music I've heard thus far. C'mon I've heard that enuff on Wii.

Then again the game itself explains everything anyway. And Mario Bros. is, erm...well....simple. xD

@Eureka Haha yeah.
Didn't stop them from including a tutorial DVD in Super Mario Galaxy 2 though.
I guess those 3D Mario games are super complicated...?

I never got a tutorial DVD. >.>
Anyways yeah I think they're just going fully digital or something with the manuals. xD

The fact that first-party 3DS manuals are so bad now makes me feel better about going digital with future releases. :3

A DVD for SMG2 ? Never heard of that...

I was for the Japanese version of the gam

That is one of the sexiest Mario box arts I have ever seen. I'm buying the physical copy just for that box alone. screw the game.

Early European copies included it as well. I have one

I have the Australian copy of Super Mario Galaxy 2 and it certainly did come with a tutorial DVD.
Was quite amusing.

Was the tutorial voiced by Charles Martinet? That would've been epic. xD

We never got one, and I'm happy for that.

For those with the game: is it easy? I mean, NSMBW had hard parts off and on in every world. Same here? Cause I hope so.

WOW thanks for the info about the DVD in SMG2
And about the booklet too me the only things I miss is the "intro story"... Or are they still there and I'm missing them ?

Didn't know it was on YouTube, lol. I remember watching the first 3 minutes with a friend on launch day. We both looked at each other and started laughing at 1:08 xD

@19Robb92 Haha yeah, we sat there and watched the whole DVD (I think it's about half an hour in total)... great stuff!

So the European box is yellow? Does North America get something that cool?
