Super Mario Maker

The latest costumes.





At least the Daisy fans can stop spamming places with the no Daisy costume and I expect Mary O and Undo Dog costumes soon to complete the Super Mario Maker characters that upload levels.

That level Southwest made was pretty good. It had some challenges.

I'm glad Daisy finally got a mystery mushroom costume. They gave her that Super Mario Land jingle when she touches the flag pole which is a nice touch. The same jingle as the Sky pop costume.

With that pigeon (I forgot the name) as a mystery mushroom costume, I can see them adding Mary-O, Undodog, and maybe even Coursebot to complete the set.

Can someone tell me what that bird is from?
These costumes are getting absurd.
I was glad about Sky Pop, Daisy, Excitebiker, Captain Toad, Arcade Rabbit, but this bird?
Give us Balloon Fighter, Urban Champion, Professor E. Gadd.

The pigeon's name is: Yamamura. He's from an official Nintendo comic apparently; source: http://en.rocketnews24.com/2015/10/26/official-nintendo-comic-has-sassy-pigeon-explain-how-to-not-be-a-horrible-troll-in-mario-maker/

^ Yep. He was also already in Super Mario Maker so it only makes sense to add him as a costume, I'm kind of surprised it wasn't done already, despite how strange a character choice he is. Daisy is not one of my favorite characters but a lot of people did want her, so it's cool to see her getting a costume.

If he gets in, and Necky from Famitsu gets in, put in Nestor from Nintendo Power!

An old patent from 1994 shows off a similar idea to Super Mario Maker:



"Video game/videographics program editing apparatus with program halt and data transfer features"

- focused on a proposed hardware platform which would allow players to pause the gameplay and edit parts of the game
- used a streamlined UI and no programming experience was needed
- create a unique video game through an icon driven, interactive computing system
- permits a video game to be executed, stopped, edited and resumed from the point where the editing began
- stand-alone hardware system
- developers would be able to specify which elements of the game the user could alter at the programming stage
- anyone could potentially create their own unique video game with this system
- user-generated content could be sent over a telephone line

Interesting! Most of that information actually sounds more like a full on game creator rather than a Mario level creator. (although obviously the picture says otherwise)

Mario Factory, interesting.
I wonder who decided to pull that, it looked like a good idea.

Cool!

I liked how in the Sarasaland course how the track outlined the mountains. Definitely reminded me of SML.

It looks more like an early version of Mario and Donkey Kong. It would have nice to see how a maker game would have worked back then though.

The game will be going under emergency maintenance until a glitch is fixed and an update is ready for release. This is expected to take at least 2 days or more.

I wonder what glitch they need to fix. It must be a pretty big one for them to suddenly start maintenance like this, and for so long.

I guess it must have been something to do with the uploader not working right lately and all of the levels being pulled lately for no reason.

Now that you say it, that actually sounds very reasonable for why Nintendo's putting up maintenance.

It was weird...  no idea why it still happened.
It got in the way of my video recording too... ;_;
At least it was only for about a day.
