Super Mario Maker

Super Mario Maker lets people's imaginations run wild. For the first time ever, friends can have fun creating levels for each other. With the Wii U GamePad controller, it's so easy for anyone to create levels that it feels like sketching out their ideas on paper. Players can enjoy a seemingly endless supply of inventive Mario levels from players all over the world. The game comes with a book totaling about 100 pages that illustrates the limitless possibilities of Super Mario Maker. Nintendo will also release two special Mario amiibo figures to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the original Super Mario Bros. game. Tapping these amiibo figures in Super Mario Maker will give you a Big Mushroom power-up that allows Mario to grow tall and destroy blocks from any direction. In addition, many other amiibo will also be compatible with Super Mario Maker through a new item called Mystery Mushroom. This item allows Mario to take on the appearance of many other characters, such as Link, Kirby, or Wii Fit Trainer, complete with character-specific animations and sound effects. These character costumes can be unlocked by completing the 100 Mario Challenge Mode, and many can also be unlocked when the player taps the character's amiibo on the Wii U GamePad.
