What is your thoughts about mario maker?

[MaxParticipant 887]

I remember when Mario Maker was announced I facepalm myself, because this idea of a level editor for mario already exist! I mean, there is a level editor for smb1, smb3, SMW, Yoshi Island, New super mario ds, New super mario Wii, Super mario 64 ds, Super mario 64… Basically, you going to make what people are already making for years, but now you have to pay for that! Now if you are thinking that Mario Maker it’s different because you can combine elements of different mario games on it… I have one thing said: Super Mario Bros X have way more options than Mario Maker!

I became a MGTOW because this was the only logical solution for a man survive in a world replete of gynocentrism and biased against men!

I actually see Mario Maker as a step forward for Nintendo.

For years fans have been asking “why doesn’t Nintendo ___?” and Nintendo has pretty much just kept doing the same thing it always has. This has led to the creation of many communities for ROMs, ROM hacking, custom Mario levels and more. Nintendo ignoring the fans and doing what it always has is why tools like Super Mario Bros X exist. Many fans have said they are willing to buy “official” versions if they existed, but that hasn’t been enough to make Nintendo budge.

Mario Maker is Nintendo seeing what happens if it listens to the fans and gives them what they asked for: an official product that lets them do what they already do for fun in their fan communities.

Mario Maker itself isn’t a huge resource gamble. According to Nintendo Treehouse, the program actually is a more polished version of the map maker they actually use to make Mario games this gen. The fact that the program already existed and just needed tweaking to be able to be released as a full product makes it ideal as a “test” to see if the community is sincere when they say they would buy official versions of the stuff they use in their fan communities.

Naturally as Nintendo has ignored the fans for so long and the fan creations are by fans for fans the fan programs are likely to have more features the fans like and want. If people do buy Mario Maker, however, there is a good chance that Nintendo will create more features in future installments of the game as they will see it as an investment and not a random test.

Nintendo has stepped forward. It’s time for the fans to show them they really are willing to pay for the official products they have been requesting. If Mario Maker is a success, Nintendo is likely to start listening to the fans more by releasing more things that people have wanted for years and years. If it’s a flop, I don’t expect Nintendo to keep listening.

As the saying goes, it’s time to put up or shut up.

Beauty fades, dumb is forever.

Just the other day I was reading about Super Mario Maker on Wired. Here it is:

I thought there was!  I know I’ve seen the “impossible to beat” mario levels on youtube.  I still think it’s pretty cool.  Always wanted one when I was a kid.
