Gaming Amiiqo will be sorta essential for Mario Maker

[WiiCube_2013]

Have you guys seen all the costumes that can be unlocked to play in Mario Maker? That's so freaking awesome but the shitty part is that one would have to own the amiibos to unlock those characters/costumes.

Ya know, Mario Maker's becoming more of an actual game with a heart than just a game with user created stages.

Screenshots from Nintendo Life of Mario Maker's costumes:

Splatoon Girl

In fact, you don't need to own all of the amiibos.

Resuming it, you will unlock Mystery Suits (that's what the costumes are called) only by playing a stage that someone shared which included a Suit in a Question Box.

Edit: Of course, you need an Internet connection for playing community shared levels.

That's quite nice of Nintendo.

I'm starting to get the itch to pre-order Mario Maker because of this...

Just preorder it already. It includes a nice artbook (in NA at least, not so sure about Europe).

Fuck sake, why does Nintendo have to keep holding back content with their amiibos.

"Essential" for completely optional, cosmetic-only changes? I hope they're paying you well to be shilling that hard.

They want to make money as the private company they are.

Amazon UK has it with the artbook. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Super-Mario...F8&qid=1439856048&sr=8-2&keywords=mario+maker

GameSeek has it for £29 and I could get it for £28 with the points I have accumulated but we'll see if it drops down to £24 like it happened with Splatoon and Yoshi's Woolly World.
