The second trailer for Nintendo's highly anticipated computer-animated movie based on its best-selling Super Mario franchise is finally here, and it shows a lot more than the initial trailer from last month.
It gives us a brief glimpse of Mario and Luigi, as well as an extremely detailed-looking Mushroom Kingdom. And, oh, in case you didn't notice, that's Donkey Kong in the trailer. Shigeru Miyamoto clarifies this is how the anthropomorphic gorilla will look.
It's interesting to see the trailer come so soon, but we're not complaining. Illumination and Nintendo must have wanted to get the jump on the leakers before too much unofficial info made its way on the internet.
As for the trailer itself, it's a fan service smorgasbord. In addition to a tanooki suit-wearing Mario, we also see Peach using a fire flower, while both take to the tracks alongside Luigi and Toad in a not-so-subtle nod to the seminal video game franchise, Mario Kart.
