Iwata Asks: New Super Luigi U - Why Nabbit was made a playable character
The following info comes from an Iwata Asks feature with New Super Luigi U director Masataka Takemoto and producer Takashi Tezuka.
- Nabbit was made playable because the team thought having three toads with Luigi would be confusing
"When we decided on Luigi as the main character, I talked with Tezuka-san about how I was absolutely against having Mario make an appearance. The idea came up of using three Toads, but when three Toads show up, the screen gets confusing, so I hounded Tezuka-san about seizing this chance to use a new character." - Takemoto
