The Super Mario Maker Thread

I'd say the Super Mario 2 levels would be harder to do because it was so different to the other Marios. Be great to see though

You can play Captain Toad for your turnip throwing Mario 2 fix!

Don't forget to share the code to your level here when you make it too so we can play each other's stuff. Also give people stars, because that's just a nice thing to do.

Has anyone ordered this recently and if so, where was the best deal seen?

With the book but without the amiibo is £31.99 from Base. Seems like a good price.

It's cheaper to buy from Gameseek. It's just under €44 including delivery.

It's €6.50+ cheaper.

How reliable are gameseek?

A level design primer from Playtonic (ex. RARE) and Nintendo UK. Some inspiring ideas here, this is a really good video to watch.

Starts about the 9 minute mark.

Watch out for the DKC-inspired level (complete with DK Amiibo)

Very. Never had trouble with them.

For anyone who was planning on getting in Smyths with the Amiibo and waiting to see Argos, I saw one of their promotions catalogues today and it was listed as €62.99. Not on the argos site though. Strange thing was they had the game and book edition for €69.99

I think the non Amibo version will be enough for me, unless that €62.99 with it is correct, in which case I'll pick it up.
Not really in a preorder frame of mind, so I'll take my chances.
It's the art book that I'd like to have tbh

MilesMorales1

I'm hoping argos will have the standard version for 50 or below.

While it's not on their site, Argos have a videogame specific brochure out and Super Mario Maker is in there.
The Amiibo version is €69.99 and the art book only edition is a maddening €62.99, but they are giving away an exclusive poster with that, for some reason.
No sign of a version without either artbook or Amiibo, so good luck hunting.

They have also got Animal Crossing, without the adapter, for the N3DS for €55.99 and with the adapter, for the regular 3DS models, for €62.99, it might be worth the extra just to have a Nintendo stamped doodad.
The cards are confirmed at €5.49 per pack.

Whats mising and could be added as DLC

The 2 big things missing for me are the slopes and checkpoints. The suits and some of the abilities not there are strange too, especially the Tanooki suit. I didn't know it was missing, it's iconic. And the giant Mushroom would be cool. Finally, removing the clock should be an option.

Mr E

Love it!

Also missing are Larry, Morton, Wendy, Iggy, Roy, Lemmy and Ludwig von Koopa.

SMB2 too...

I can't wait for smyths to take my money on Thursday night! This is goin to be epic!

If I could add anything to this game it would be the ability to play the created levels on 3ds. I'd say if they added that feature before release they would sell double the numbers at least.

I'm hopeful we'll get the usual launch day discount for big games.

48 hours to go... yikes.

[UNBOXING] Super Mario Maker collector "Amiibo + Artbook"

It's in French but that's not important. The artbook looks great and it's in hardback. I didn't know that. Makes me even happier knowing that now. I think it's definitely worth at least €5 for a glossy, hardback, sizeable artbook. I don't care for the 8 bit amiibo Mario or amiibo in general.

Ordered off the Nintendo UK store through Parcel Motel and thankfully just got an email saying it was dispatched!

sligeach

Just got an e-mail confirmation from Gameseek that my order has been posted. Speaking from experience I don't think it'll get here by Friday. Was hoping it would ship yesterday like a couple of the other sites. It'll be here Monday I expect. F*** it, weekend is ruined and it's only Wednesday.

GAME are at it again, their computer system has lost them hundreds of customers in the last few months.

GAME customers who pre-ordered Super Mario Maker have woken this morning to find that their bank accounts have now been charged again multiple times.

Many have now been charged for seven copies of the game - costing £328.93 - when they had only ordered one.

Got a Mario Maker IOU from my wife and kids for my birthday. Looks like it'll be next week before it arrives but I'm on the train! CHOO CHOO!

Discount from whom?
Argos?
Do they do that sort of thing?
Or is Smyth's?
I'm so confused!

Argos I mean. Since they're by far the cheapest place for launch day games right now.
