Topic: Super Mario Maker - OT

Same here, I'm going to do that as well. I've not been paying much attention to most of the revealed costumes so far, so it'll all be a suprise to me when I get the game.

Cool, they used the Pac-Land sprites for Pac-Man. Like how Mega Man looks too.
I imagine they used, or took notes from, the Game Gear sprites for Sonic.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what music maestros can cook up with this new music feature. I imagine it's going to be a bit awkward with how it functions, but who knows!

Wait what's the problem??? How many pre-made levels are already on the disc????

60 apparently. Roughly the same as most 2D mario games

Awesome, Silver Mario looks nice there. Now if they only released Gold and Silver Mario in Europe ...

Heh.. I was a little concerned that we in Europe couldn't play him.
But then remembered you can unlock them without Amiibo. xP

Same here, I do plan on putting link costumes in all my puzzle type levels though.

in pretty sure I read the same thing somewhere

I love 2d and really hope there are more. I could see them releasing dlc updates to mario maker that are full games. It would be cool if they did that because it would mean getting new official levels of the older level types. Also i would like to see them make it so that after you beat the levels you are able to edit them and switch between the systems, but you can only do that if you beat it first.

This game looks pretty awesome but I am curious as to why it seems that whenever Mario gets a skin like Peach or Link, it seems like they can't get bigger. They're always small versions of the characters. Does anyone know about that?

That bothers me a bit as well. They should have taken advantage of Mario's two sizes to have some character's be Super Mario's aize when it makes sense, for example, Marth.

I really hope it's not like that especially since in past games they had Luigi, Toad, and Peach playable and they had all had different power-ups and different sizes. I'm looking forward to this game but some things I'm hearing are bothering me. Such as something I just read about all the course elements not be available from the start and being unlocked over the course of 9 days or something like that. I'm really confused and worried over that. Everything to make stages should be available day 1.

@NintyMan: It could be real with the key point being that new Hyrule Warriors content is not over yet thanks to the E3 reveal of Legends for 3DS. Maybe there'll be an amiibo for every playable character in that game including the confirmed Tetra and King of Red Lions as well as whatever extra characters make it into the 3DS version (which of course transfer over to the Wii U version).

@NintyMan - The Mystery Mushroom costumes can be unlocked without the need of an amiibo so maybe there are a few non-amiibo costumes in the game. Yeah, it's possible but like any other rumour, I question how the poster got/made that screenshot. I will take this with salt.

They're essentially a power-up, that's why they can't get bigger. If you play as any other character and get hurt, you'll turn back into Mario.

Oh, that's a little disappointing but I understand. Thanks for the info!

That kind of pissed me off as well.

It is disappointing.

So, does anyone know about the content released day 1? Cause I read this on Mario Wikia:

"The game will start with only one row of course elements, as the game will feature a daily unlocking system, giving players a set of new course elements and themes for the next day over a set of nine days, so long as they spend time on using the tools they have. From Day 7, players can also add sound effects to their courses, using the SFX frog (which uses the frog icon from Mario Paint). These effects will happen when Mario walks over them in the play mode, with some effects generating visuals. Players can even record their own sound effects and add them to the game."

I don't really understand the wording and the daily updates. So is every stage going to take 9 days to make. I'm confused. Everything should be unlocked from the start or am I understand this wrong?
