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.

so I guess when we play a level one of us made we just follow them - eventually our list will grow. Time to add and create..

my course is 27D1 0000 001B ED01 - It's super short but at least you can follow me for future courses later.

The 'patch' has not come through yet..I may have to restart the game cause after over an hour and a half of fiddling with it, I was just notified that the next set of tiles will be available to me tomorrow.

It still unlocks in the old way, but you can now alternately unlock by using the tools.

The more tiles you place, the closer you get to unlocking more things. Spam the heck out of tiles and you'll see!

Well the game doesn't seem to give me anything at all now... I've been playing for an hour past midnight and nothing? It said it would deliver stuff Sunday. I'm confused now.

EDIT: I think this level that I'm working on will definitely be the best one yet. It's very hard though (as a creator, not the player!) but so satisfying to see it unfold. I keep laughing at how things go as I add new pieces to the level. Can't wait to publish it!

THE CAVE UNO is done

Still the first basic tile set - but a much more engaging level for you peeps.

Guys, have you come across the Super Meat Bros. level? It's super challenging and EXACTLY what I was looking for out of this sharing feature. I'll get the level ID if needed.

But I didn't even get anything for Saturday.

I'm liking this game. The silliness that runs rampant in Super Mario Maker is reminiscent of the WarioWare series, and I love that about it.

Here's the ID for my first level - 5E6D-0000-001C-9C01

It's pretty basic, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

One more for the night! This one's a little tougher, but does some neat things with fire!

Have you guys not been trying what I said??

Choose a floor tile and SPAM IT all over the stage. Like, scribble it and cover everything. Each tile placement brings you closer to unlocks.
It takes a little while but it works.
First you'll get a message saying something is coming tomorrow, then you'll get it a few minutes later.

ok i'll try that tomorrow... go spam

Actually, I think it takes 5 minutes for it to announce the new element coming "tomorrow" THEN you just spam for about a minute. When you let go you'll hear the delivery truck.


Spam.

I made my first course using the initial toolset! Give it a try if you want:

My brother and I just collaborated on a level, and I recommend that to you all. Multiple people throwing in and building off each other's ideas is fun. He wanted to do an auto-scrolling level, and I'm happy with the results. It isn't easy, but it's fair...

This is a killer app. If only the Wii U could have launched with this...

THIS GAME!!! IT'S 4AM AND I CAN'T SLEEP!!!!!!

I was too optimistic about people's levels. I haven't tried too too many yet, but there's way too many with blind leaps of faith, things coming out of nowhere, and unfair deaths.

I swear Nintendo wants intelligently designed levels. I know I do. Hard for the sake of hard really is coming off as silly to me.

Me and my bro spent some time trying to make 1 sorta practice course (though we did put thought and effort into it), and I'm working on a second alone. I've just gotten the third set of tools (underwater) and playing around with spikes and bullet bills.

Had a few people play my level so far and got 1 star. It somehow feels fucking amazing when someone plays your stuff.

This game. Haven't even scratched the surface and already I'm just blown away.

Can't wait to try out your levels tomorrow and get feedback on mine.

So I made a mino autoscrolling level. It is not the longest level but it has a little variety. SMB3.

And a second level this morning with the airship theme.
