New Super Mario Bros. 2 gets its DLC detailed

While there were rumours of a Nintendo Direct to be held earlier today and everyone got a little bit excited it ultimately didn’t happen. What did happen though, was that Nintendo Japan released a Youtube video showing off the downloadable content for New Super Mario Bros. 2 that was promise ages ago. Remember that?

There are multiple level packs coming to expand the games Coin Rush mode. The first will be released next week in Japan for about 200 yen, that’s about 2 bucks in dollary-doo’s. Each pack contains 3 courses with different goals for each pack. The first pack’s goal is collection 30,000 coins in one run. The second is a worldwide leaderboard challenge and the third pack is for Mario experts. The levels in the third pack promise to be brutal.

There’s no word yet as to when these packs might be released outside of Japan but we imagine an announcement can’t be too far off. You can see some of the levels in action in the video below.
