Due to come out September 11th for the Nintendo Wii U. as Sept 13th is Mario`s 30th Anniversary!

Let`s you create your own Super Mario levels in four styles:
-Super Mario Bros.
-Super Mario Bros. 3
-Super Mario World
-New Super Mario Bros. U

Themes include: Overworld, Underground, Underwater, Castle, Airship, and Ghosthouse. All available in all game styles. Some enemies & props were even given new sprites to work in game styles they were`t in originally.

*EDIT: 100 levels in game was a typo, apparently there`s only ``dozens``, made by various people, including the creator of Rayman.
There`s a challenge mode called The 100 Mario Challenge.
When you create levels, you can share them online with other fans.
Custom Level select shows stages as World 1, 1-4, W2, 1-4, etc, like Mario 1.
All castles end in Mario 1 bridge w axe.

Can`t wait to get my hands on SUPER MARIO MAKER!!

I`m already working out some old ideas I had. I aim to make traditional, competent Mario levels, not that crazy stuff from the levels shown. Not a crazy ROM Hack or speedrun whatever. While I do get some of it, I`ve always liked exploring the levels, and the stories they tell, thanks to Mario 2, 3, and World`s expansive designs.

I understand there are some changes to the styles to make them more compatable. All castles end with a bridge & Axe, like Mario 1. You can make Mario 1 & 3 style Ghosthouses, and Mario 1 & World style Airships!

I don`t think there are secondary exits. I need the Key & Keyhole, and or the Powerball from Boom Boom in 3 & the Ghostship in World. It`s essential for one of my shipwreck levels, gives it a treasure scavenger hunt vibe exploring to find it.

One thing I didn`t see was slanted land, to make hills n slopes. Sliding down is impossible on blocky block stairs. Maybe I missed it.

I don`t think the White blocks from 3 are in, the Blue & Pink ones are. You could duck on them to go behind the scenery, and the Fence in Mario World had a door that would take you to the other side of the fence, essentially the same thing.

I`m assuming we won`t be able to use every enemy. Boom Boom, Chargin Chuck, Koopalings, Sumo Bro, Reznor, Dino Rhino n Mini, Rex, Rip van Fish, Buster Beetle & Grab Blocks, and I don`t think Yellow & Blue Koopas are in. Blue ones would kick their shell, and Yellow ones became near invincible homing shells, when they climb back in after ejection.

Even with the understandable limitations, this is still THE most exciting news I`ve heard in a while. Mario started me on this path, it was a big part of my life. The crazy stuff you can do now is just amazing, and random, and fun.
I`m very excited to return to my roots.

Other enemies I haven`t seen are Spike, Nipper Plants, and Ptooie, Boomerang Bros, Fire Bros, the square saws, Hot Head & Lil Sparky, Blaarg, Firesnake, and Flamechomp, Lava Lotus & Volcano Lotus, swooper, Bony Beetle...

Needs other Overworld themes: Sky, Forest, Night, Ice, Beach, Desert, etc...
Oh, the Black n White levels from World 8 in Mario 3. Underground themes, like: Mine, Sewer, Ice Cave...

I haven`t seen water in any stage but underwater. What about waterfalls from pipes, and stuff, like in 3? What about the lava, does it only line the bottom of the screen, or can we have varied levels?

White Blocks from 3 are present, but it`s unknown if the behind the scenery effect is in. Still waiting to see fencing, and climbable rope.

I`ll give a helpful hint to my fellow creators, and say we may have to use the Conveyor Belt as Tank Treads...

I also wanted to do something they were missing in 3, Submarine themed underwater tank level. But we don`t know if water can be placed in non-underwater levels.

They made a Hammer bros for each gametype, why not add the Hammer bros Suit powerup? The Buzzy Beetle, n Spiny Helmet is neat though, I wonder how they differ.

Thinking of doing an original Donkey Kong stage, with Lakitu throwing Spiny down the ramps. OriginalMario(the battle minigame in 3) with Koopas n Spiny spawning pipes. Tetris theme, with block arrangments dropping off open rails... <3

SUPER MARIO MAKER
I can understand why they don`t have water available, as giant enemies can break the usually unbreakable blocks, and they`d need to program water flow mechanics, so the water wouldn`t just float in the air, like blocks do...
Though it does in Super Mario 3D World...

They could program the blocks lining the bottom, and sides of the water & lava to be unbreakable. Then we can have lava suspended in the air by ice blocks.
