Game Center CX is rather iconic - popular in Japan and with a small legion of fans in the West, its host Shinya Arino is also particularly well known. Naturally Nintendo features regularly, and Arino-san recently took part in a special NicoNico fan event in which Shigeru Miyamoto appeared to show off September's Wii U release, Mario Maker.
It's a game that'll open up a whole load of entertaining and bizarre user-created videos, but we love this moment - thanks Tiny Cartridge - that shows Shigeru Miyamoto taking on a creation from Arino-san. It's 26 seconds that made us smile.
The video below has the whole Mario Maker segment, too, which has more great moments.
So, are you excited about Mario Maker, and levels like these?

I peed next to that guy once. Into a urinal, of course. Best day ever.
Kool.
Haha. I'm so excited for this game!
At least I know I am playing Mario the right way. (Thought they might have assumed people should take up a different slow playstyle at some point).
This game is going to create a lot of great moments among friends. Can't wait to play it.
the best way to play mario is the YOLO way, because, of course, you can always get more lives.
~(^.^~)
LOL
It's the satisfaction Arino shows at catching him out at the end.
That 8-Bit Mario at the beginning of the gameplay in the second video is most definitely an Amiibo!
Urge to buy a WiiU rising!
SILLYYY
bummerrrrrr. this guy is so happy to have beaten Miyamoto at it's own game.
I need him to play better than that lol. awesome, can't wait to play all the crazy levels I'm going to end up seeing.
This is going to be fantastic I'm very excited. It's going to be interesting to see what people spell out with the blocks though. 😳
I'm so glad to see that you can build levels with more verticality!
@DarthNocturnal Its worn to prevent viruses and the spread of viruses especially even at an event like this sick people are bound to go to with such famous people there mainly, also alot of people don't like sickness over there if i recall since its an island.
Really looking forward to this game. Like, really really.
Is it september yet?
I hope they have learnt from Tipping Stars and have a better way to enable things to be found a bit more easily.
I love Game Center CX, it really is my favourite TV show EVER. I must however stay away from this raw footage until someone fansubs the whole thing, but it's never easy to resist...
I'm really excited for this!
I want to see someone go into a pipe though...
Easily my most anticipated game of the year.
@edgedino
My Japanese friend told me lots of girls put these masks on when they are just leaving the house to run some errands and don't feel like putting makeup on
@AhabSpampurse Thanks for clarifying that important detail, you dispelled a lot of horrific images.
Why September? WHYYYYYYY?
I just can't wait that long.
Love moments like these. Miamoto is awesome. Really love to shake his hand one day.
That was pretty cool, I'd love to have someone recreate a Kaizo level then have Miyamoto try it.
@JaxonH if I had a list of the people I would most like to meet, Miyamoto is definitely top 5 for me. A living legend.
@JaxonH Same here. I would love to see him curate levels in Mario Maker and release a weekly "Miyamoto's Pick"
Man September is so far away!!!!!!!!
Still waiting for confirmation of a music composer.
Who am I kidding, I'm really waiting for a confirmation that a music composer isn't in the game, just to put my hopes and dreams to rest already.
Mario Maker is shaping up to be a much bigger "thing" than i expected. Not a release schedule filler at all. In fact, i think it could be the killer app the Wii U so badly needs.
Kacho....ON!
That was a cool piece of retro gaming history right there!
Thanks NL!
@MarioKartParty57 It show cases Mario Maker, a game many are highly anticipating, it shows off one feature I don't recall seeing before, enemies inside question blocks, also a look at how far you can build up a level. I'd say it's a valid story. I also do notice there is a glitch in the game with coins falling under the level right at the start. I wonder if they can do anything about that.
I'm hyped as the four-letter-word we all know and love.
@HollywoodHogan thats 1 way for a girl to save time lol.
Everybody hates Wii U and calls it a failure... Until Mario Maker gets involved.
Even Miyamoto gets fooled by his own greatest trick
Awesome! I love Shigeru Miyamoto & Chief Arino! GCCX is the best!
I'm downloading a subtitled version, can't wait
@edgedino Conventions are a great place to get sick, so masks and hand washing are a must.
Interesting things.
SOme stuff you cant do when editing the original games (without extensive ASM hacking)
Cant wait to give this a spin.
I'm not into the whole "build your own content" thing, so I thought this would be one to skip, but I think actually getting to play the levels other people would create could be a lot of fun.
Little-known fact: Shigeru Miyamoto has never beaten "Super Mario Bros."
Terrible crowd. They cheered the hell out of the lame niconico/YT celebrities, while the creator of the niconico itself came out to silence and miyamoto got a quiet applause by the people who actualy knew who he was. Sad to see the hardworking people who actually make the products/services get such little fanfare.
That was GREAT!!!! It gives me more ideas for when I make my stages.
Looks pretty cool, but I'm not sure if it's my cup of tea.
I'm sure this'll be on the Wara Wara Plaza screen for months, though.
Miyamoto got rekt.
The bouncing platforms were awesome!
Enjoyed the videos very much, I am looking forward to the game coming out in September, it will be good and I'm looking forward to play levels that other gamers/ player have put together.
