Super Mario Maker Discussion (Nintendo Wii U) [game]

Super Mario Maker on the Wii U

Welcome to the official discussion thread for Super Mario Maker on the Wii U!

To start, please add this game to your log, add it to your collection (if applicable), and (when you are ready) rate it using the link above!


Super Mario Maker is a new title from Nintendo where, for the first time ever, you will be able to create your own levels on your own console. The game released on September 11th, 2015.

Through Nintendo Directs, Nintendo Treehouse videos, and the Super Mario Maker website, there's quite a bit of information out now which is really showcasing how deep the creation tools are.

Four Main Themes To Choose From!
Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, New Super Mario Bros. U

What's really incredible is the slew of classic objects found inside. When an item wasn't part of a previous or later game theme, Nintendo has taken the time to make new sprites to allow you to always be able to switch on the fly from theme to theme. Some classic objects include, Goombas, Monty Moles, Invisible Blocks, Flagpoles, and so much more!


The man who was alongside Miyamoto all these years with the Super Mario series, Takashi Tezuka, is the producer of this game. Koji Kondo, acclaimed Nintendo-music composer, is again the lead composer of this game. I can't imagine we'll see much, if any, new music but it's great that any new renditions of classic themes will be handled by the father of it all.

I am looking to collect data on Negative World's levels we create so if you post a level in the thread, I would sincerely and greatly appreciate if you filled out this brief survey about it so the submissions will be collected and we can ensure that your levels are played for a long time to come as part of the Negative World collection. To view the levels, simply click on the link above the survey.

I don't think so. I read that your size is irrelevant and items will always come out the same and you will always switch to that item. So if you're small and get a Fire Flower, you are Fire Mario, not Super Mario.

Is there any way to make a ? block context-sensitive? Like, when Mario is small, a mushroom comes out but when he's big, it's a fire flower/leaf/etc? Please tell me it's possible!

EDIT - Also, am I missing something? I have been using the creation tool for quite some time now and I have only run into one unlock. I thought they were supposed to unlock quicker than this now?

No context sensitivity.

Also, I'm not getting unlocks either. I got one and they stopped.

I'm on 1.01 and I'm not getting updates despite a lot of play.

I was just making my first stage and got notified I would have more parts unlocked....tomorrow.

Maybe we didn't get the update everyone else got?


Also my first stage code's D87D-0000-0017-B599


I'm not the most creative when it comes to making stages, so not sure how many I'll actually wind up making, heh.


EDIT: Also also, I just now realized I could've extended the goal to make my stage longer.....ah well, guess it's better to have a short first stage ;p

Here is my first uploaded stage: D745-0000-0017-9486

There is a few traps here and there. Not a super hard stage but it can get you.

Well, despite not getting the rest of the stuff yet (I'll do the time trick after my son is done player), I made a short, respectable level in the standard Mario style. It has one neat secret, but is totally beatable without it.

I figured out the unlock situation.
It seems to be connected to how many tiles you have placed.
I spammed a ton of blocks and received two more updates.

Spam away until you get the stuff you want!

I just finished up a short castle level (just unlocked the theme). It's nothing special, but I think it's not too bad.

So today I learned that I am TERRIBLE at making levels in this game..

No one's taken the physical challenge yet, eh?..

Welp, at least your guys' stages have been beaten and star'd at least once...

@plootNo, it's really annoying. I hope they patch that in. You could specify a path of power ups per block.

Whatever they release for this game DLC wise, I'm gonna be allllllll over it. I hope they continue to support it.

I hate giving a fire flower to somebody who didn't earn it!

I guess I can put breakable blocks under my fire flower blocks.

I was creating a stage, minding my own business when a couple bugs flew out of a block I placed. I quickly swatted them and I was suddenly playing the Mario Paint Fly Swatter Game! YES!!!! So deliciously out of the blue!

Triple post!

Above or Below. It's an airship stage. Hooray!

I just played some sadistic assholes stage for like 2 hours. He single-handedly broke my 100 Marios Normal thing (15/16, took 94 of my lives), and then I continued on after I was done with it, probably for another 50 lives. I'm the only person (besides him) to have cleared his course. What a dick. It has like a 0.27% clear ratio.

I'll get the code up here sometime. I'm definitely done playing Mario Maker for the night.

EDIT- I'm such a glutton for punishment, in every aspect of my life. I need help. Legit.
