@Dev: The case has collector's item written all over it. Even if that game is around after this year, that Year of Luigi seal on the case for 2013 is so worth it.
I'm a little disappointed that player 2 has the choice of a Toad or invincible Nabbit. I know its not a big deal really and I would play as Nabbit but the invincibility is a turn off and Toad is just played out.
$20 is expensive for what's essentially just a bunch of remixed levels with very slightly altered player mechanics. It recycles all the old assets. It really just doesn't seem worth it at that price.
Maybe I'm alone in this, but doesn't the addition of Nabbit and, hell, multiplayer in general kind of take away the focus on Luigi that they've been emphasising for so long? Especially since they all appear to share his newly regained physics. And from what I can tell, the levels really don't seem all that adapted for multiplayer at all.
I'm kind of torn on NSLU. On one hand the actual gameplay looks pretty solid and definitely more of a challenge than anything that's come from the NSMB series thus far. But I also feel Nintendo are missing an opportunity here; they really could have went all out and made this a real love letter to Luigi fans. It could have opened with Mario and co getting kidnapped along with Peach, leaving Luigi the only one left that's able to save them. And it would have been a nice touch to have him react differently during cutscenes or something...
But I digress; it's not like the NSMB series has never really been known for anything outside its core gameplay.
Well, I've yet to get a Wii U, and hence don't have NSMBU (my friend does) but I'll still be getting this for sure. It's a limited edition thing so the box would make a great collector's item, I'm guessing.

I'm very tempted to buy NSMBU and download this (I previously rented NSMBU) but I've had the retail version pre-ordered for a while now and I think I'll cope with the wait.
