There's a major update coming to Super Mario Maker 2; the final update, to be exact. New in this soon-to-be-released patch is a World Maker, among other things. Shown off in a newly uploaded trailer is the Super Mario 2 Mushroom, which allows you to stand on and pick up enemies, just like you could in Super Mario Bros. 2 in the west. The Frog Suit is also a new-old powerup, allowing you to run on top of water and swim quickly, while the Power Balloon lets Mario float like a balloon through levels. Numerous other "wearable" powerups also bring in old abilities from previous Mario titles too. Bowser's Koopalings are also back as well.

The biggest feature of this update, however, is the World Maker. It'll allow you to create your own Mario Worlds, where you can connect multiple custom courses in their own little 2D overworld. You can combine 8 worlds and 40 courses together in this mode. The World Maker Update goes live soon, on April 22nd.

This is honest to god quite amazing

Amazing update! This will definitely make me go back to play this again.

it's hard to use CFW for switch indeed if the online features are really that amazing.

I just woke up and saw this. Went from groggy as hell to hyped beyond belief in moments.

That world maker is just what I was hoping for at launch.

 

[gabisenk]

will ppl be able to dump these? i am excited but my switch is banned sadly :<

 

[raxadian]

Finally a good reason to buy this game since I already have the 3DS version.

 

[Hambrew]

Time to port every last SMM3DS stage I made so I can make a world for it!

 

[Jyssa]

Good news

 

[Bladexdsl]

still waiting for zelda maker. cmon nintendo it will print money!

 

[Taffy]

Lunar Magic did it first

I saw this then had the urge to go back to SMW Central. I probably might do that.

 

[Reynardine]

Laggy online ftw...
But aside from that this game is great. I'm really excited for the Koopalings and new powerups, this will be great.

The world map creation is something I'd never thought they would add, it's plain awesome! Finally, now 1ups are no longer meaningless outside of endless mode.
And it looks like we'll get to rescue the princess again! Yay

*insert obligatory deviantart p-balloon joek*

ANYWAY, they didn't mention any new themes, and there's a space riiiight next to 3D world.

There aren’t any storylines with this series, right? It’s just creating your own stages and playing other people’s stages. Pass.

 

[Ryab]

Aaaand I'm just gonna remake SMW with all of the hidden overworld unlocks I imagined as a kid.

EDIT: Yoshi's Island Maker when

Dont think you can made secret exits though

 

[Lodad]

Dont think you can made secret exits though

I saw that. Watched the video after I made my comment and was sad mode.

 

[Tweaker_Modding]

i would still like to see the mystery mushroom return in MM2

 

[Axido]

and Mario Maker did it better. also, making 3d levels is way harder than 2d ones, and i doubt nintendo would be able to make an editor that makes making 3d levels easy

I'm sure they could, though it would feel more like 3D Land and 3D World rather than 64, Sunshine and Galaxy. I could even imagine the latter to be practicable, since having a large rounded shape to place pre-defined objects on doesn't sound too farfetched. Animal Crossing New Horizons does exactly that and has a built-in level editor (to some extent) as well.

 

[Something whatever]

Rom hackers: Thats cute

 

[WesMods]

With this and the Best Buy "leak" about Super Mario 3D World coming to Switch, it makes me wonder if Nintendo will do a Direct soon to announce some of this stuff. Then it makes me wonder what they are holding back for (what would have been) E3 announcements.

If Super Mario 3D World gets ported to Switch there will be some features missing from the original I assume, like second screen/touchscreen features such as the Captain Toad levels and the hidden blocks etc in game. I wonder how they'll deal with that? I certainly hope it does get rereleased on Switch because it is an amazing family game

Wow people actually play Mario games for those deep and complex story lines?

Anyway there is a story mode with 100 levels created by Nintendo. It's not exactly a heart wrenching, life-perspecive changing experience but it's probably got more depth to it than the "story" of any other Mario game I've played.
