Super Mario Maker 2 Gets New Update Super Mario Maker 2 receives its first new update in over a year, which implements minor changes to improve the overall player experience. https://gamerant.com/super-mario-maker-2-update-patch-notes/ Nothing much it seems; bug fixes, and the very vague...

Got mine Fri.! Overall, the music and colors in some places reminds me of "Newer Super Mario Bros." (which I watched on YouTube years ago, and thought looked nice). Just like 3DW distinguished "Goombas" (the original ones with two part bodies that squish with one jump) from "Galoombas" (the SMW...

Just think, If Bowser actually TURNS INTO the Castle, when they play that castle level, it's actually "Bowser's Inside Story" again! 😁😁😁

Sorry; I didn't know those sources had any such bad reputation. The stuff I've seen looks legit ar far as coming releases, though thera is a lot of speculation, as to details.

That would be cool.d

For next system, next year. To use “Unreal” graphics engine, like Pikmin 4, *with its stunning graphics! https://youtu.be/rQoXIHGvwD4

Backgrounds remind me of Yoshi's Island. I remember not too long ago, when someone on Youtube speculated on what the next Mario platformer would be like, and if 2D, it seemed the NSMB series was a bit played out, and I wondered what else they could possibly do (other than the flattened 3DW style...

I was happy they made DK the son of Cranky. For one thing, this was evidently portrayed in the movie as the original Donkey Kong, who fought Mario on construction beams with barrels. I felt the canon was ruined when they began claiming this DK was actually "Cranky", and the current DK was either...

Well, Galaxy was over a decade ago, and when they picked up the NSMB series and then 3DL/W, they went back to upright. So I would call those the “modern” designs. (Odyssey I forget; do they even have Koopas, outside of the 2D sections?) But yes, my idea is that the upright ones (and which pop...

When SMW was released, they changed so many things; one of them redesigning the Goomba from a two-part mushroom body, to a single walking head, and that it no longer squished with one jump; you now had to jump on it twice, to flip it over, and then to kick it away (Basically like the old Koopa...

Buh-Bomb (B-Bomb), because that's how they pronounced it on the cartoon. Before that, I assumed it the way it's spelled; "Bob-omb", and then it figured the cartoon way was simpler to say.

https://youtu.be/V1RL1p1-l7g This video just came out, and it the end, it shows that they actually considered 3D graphics (albeit "2.5D" play) for SMBe (and the 3D checkered floor was the remnant of this idea)! Never knew this at all! (Reminds me of those 3D parts of Super Paper Mario). Even...

Wonder if Nintendo could just confiscate the "Mario Multiverse" hack, which has all of these different styles, powerups, etc.; nearly everything anyone would want, and release it as their own (since it's really all their intellectual property, but is currently only a beta that seems to only have...

OK, thank you!

There's no collected star/stamp list anywhere? (Which shows every level, and what you've collected. I know I've seen that on previous games). It seems you can only see what you've collected from going on to the world map, and moving to every level one at a time.

Some more screenshots from the various "Fuji Mario" style mods: Closeup of Bowser: Zachabossaloler Plays version based off of SMB3 engine: KaizoDan version: Lassikko "Super Mario Megamix" (3G3-MJK-4WF): best remake of SMB2 on officlal SMM2:

Cool they're finally porting 3DW! I now hope to eventually get a Switch just for that one!

I've loved the idea of 3D Mario ever since the late 80's, when they converted arcade franchises like PacMan to 3D (PAcmania), and added 3D style graphics to the Space Invaders, Asteroids and Galaga series (Majestic 12, Blasteroids, Galaga88). It would be several years before a 3D Mario...

Here now is where the “Fuji Mario” modder has added later characters to the SMB2 style, like SMM2.

For those who don't like the sad looking "angry" sun of the SMBU style, apparently, a glitch is that if you overlay a bunch of them (he uses 20), then you'll get a more realistic looking "sun", though it wont have a face; it looks more like an intense ray coming at you...

I've long wondered if some of the sound effects are from Ed, Edd & Eddy. Particularly the first two listed here: https://www.mariowiki.com/List_of_sound_effects_in_Super_Mario_Maker_2 the firstone sounds like Eddy saying "Help Me!" which I remember from multiple occasions on the show, and the...

Anything from that Mario 128 project we for a long time thought was going to become a game?

This is exactly what they should have done: https://youtu.be/7xAPTKPPwUM If a mod could do it, then why not Nintendo? Love what they did with the flagpole and exit mask, and that all Boos are now Phantos, and they used the original "Doki Doki Panic" version with the less menacing face, for when...

Here's a report on how the latest update is doing in online play. Watching the "Endless" Challenges and "Multiplayer" on YT, it seems there is a heavy emphasis on the newest 3 game styles (W, U and 3DL), and when SMB1 is used, they still overwhelmingly favor the Link mushroom. SMB2 is actually...

Arcade version ("VS Super Mario Bros."; took another year before we got an NES). (This, if you're not counting the original Donkey Kong).

King Scoopa Koopa was funny.

"Super MArio Bros. 'BAck to Basics' 3D" A 3D game based on the original, like SMG2's "Supermassive Galaxy", but in regular size. (It would have original sound effects, more block-based ground features, and focus on original enemies). Water levels could look something like the ones in the Galaxy...

From the very beginning (watching others on the arcade "VS" version), the mystery element (what's in that pipe; that block, etc. trying to find the hidden vine or underowlrd, or occasionalyy even a waterifiled section). Iliked it for the same reason I liked Scooby Doo! Lively score and sound...

Was this the thread originally titled something like "What in a 3D Mario level were you troubled by?" or something like that? (Which I clearly remember from within the last couple of weeks, but can't find now). One YT'er is running gameplay videos of the entire SMG series (I skipped over that...

Nintendo World has the latest games set up on multiple large screens (and 3DS's as well), so you can go there and play them for awhile. (That's how I got to try out all the games on systems I never got, like NSMBU, 3DW, Odyssey, etc.) Since most people who try to recreate SMB2 use the regular...

If it weren't for the pandemic, I wanted to go there to see if I could make my own SMM2-SMB1/2 scene off of the Forest theme (which has the green semisolids that look like SMB2).

Here's an apparent SMM hack that's the SMB1 style, but with a lot more elements of later games added: background tunes from SMW and later converted to 8 bit, storing of extra powerups, the Toad house, the SMB2 enemies Shyguy and Ninji, and you can pick up them and Koopa shells without having to...

Here, I decided to gather together all the "Fuji Mario" characters, and major graphics elements. Fuji Mario is where someone redid the entire original SMB into the SMB2 style. So we see what all the original enemies, from goombas to Bowser, would have supposedly looked like if they appeared in...

Here, someone finally got the SMB2 look right: (though they did it in night mode for some reason) https://youtu.be/xI2PNwvZlg4

Here someone tries to do something like this: https://youtu.be/W3saTF_M0uA What I don't understand is why no one doing this is using the green striped semisolid platforms: They're nearly identical to the original SMB2 platforms, and were already added in the last update or before (perhaps in...

Another thing I realized; SMB2 little Mario is omitted. IT would have been cool to include that, as in the original game, because it would allow you to be hit twice before falling back into SMB1 mode. (Also noticed that the P-switch uses the original SMB theme variation from “subspace” instead...

It was likely 'just in case'; a ”provision” to add more styles, that may or may not ever be realized. I think we all eagerly jumped on the word “styleS” and made too much of it and assumed it meant there MUST be more than one addition in the future. But what MetaWeege said might be true as...

Wow (recently wondering when the next update would ever be); since they're adding the key SMB2 features of picking up enemies, then if they add SMB2 themes, enemies and block graphics, you would be able to make an SMB2 style level off of the SMB1 engine! (I see they already had that green...

Nice they added the Pokeys (which was a prominent character, that debuted with SMB2), but I wonder why they added the new Ninji game (considered a new "mode"), but didn't take the opportunity to add SMB2. Is it really that hard to convert? (Harder than 3DW was?) I notice that when the new Link...

Look what went up today: https://youtu.be/1lhn1y530hU (using the "Fuji Mario Bros" hack used as an SMB2 engine of SMM).

Look what I just found on my YT feed! https://youtu.be/pmHCWlN-Hoo

The addition of SML is a mod? Videos I'm seeing such as this one https://youtu.be/mMawD2ZOO2s are saying it's apart of the game. (comments too). I thought this was cool, as a lot of people seemed to want the next "additional style" to be SML, but here, it's easily added as a powerup. I'd rather...

OK, actual gameplay footage is starting to arrive, as there was some demo event people want to today: https://youtu.be/cnRlWSBWx6A https://youtu.be/vHhQCvwi8-0 and several more. Apparently the NSMBU sun keeps that same static look even when moving. ::) Other highlights are the surprise moves...

Mario Maker's Weird Angry Sun Explained https://youtu.be/zPVIekKLZWQ (Thought it looked like some sort of Central/South American native art!)

They've actually added this, apparently, to even the SMB style. Somewhere in the video, you can see a clip of him in sleep mode (looks similar to the SMB3 version), but then turns into the angry gritting-teeth sprite when dropping. That must be what they're doing with the sun in NSMBU mode...

It does seem like there is a bit of overanalyzing (particularly around just there being an extra space), though as others pointed out, the plural "modes" does indicate that the provision is being made for other styles. Here's the SMB2 mod I saw from before (with the goomba and Koopa Troopa...

Just curious; why do you think SML2? Of all the sites I've seen address this, I did see one (a video, I think) speculate “Bros 2 or Land 2”. I've been hoping for Bros 2, because the Land series is so different in being black & White, yet otherwise is similar to styles already included. These...

Wonder why they just couldn't have both.

So they're going to have 2D versions of 3DWorld. I wonder why they wouldn't take the opportunity to add SMB2. (Someone else had done a nice rendition of it, and it was nice to see how goombas and koopas translated into it. Didn't even realize they didn't have slopes in the first game. I though I...
