Will you get Super Mario Maker?

[Colonel Angus]

You better...

I would probably give it a try if I had a Wii U, but it wouldn't really be a first day buy or anything

When my kids are old enough so that we can make levels for each other, which is in like 5 years.

Is this the second Super Mario Maker poll of the day? Or am I hallucinating?

[Pumpkin]

CA is super pumped for this game

Just going to say my mad theory that Angus is secretly planning to convert EoFF into a Super Mario Maker out from underneath us.

People have been making their own levels in different Mario games for ages now.

I mean, it's a good idea, and I think will make a fun game. I just don't understand the level of hype it's getting.

It's like Nintendo said, "Well, it's a Mario anniversary, but we're running out of ideas. I know. Let's just make a game where they can make their own game and share it with friends. They've been doing it for years anyway."

EDIT: Waits for Colonial Agnus's fury.

I think what Nintendo has provided is the UI and flexibility to create Mario levels to all ages and skill levels and to access those creations in a common area. It's a bit different than individuals going off and making their own levels by modding the code and putting them on their website or whatever.

I believe the Target that's a couple of blocks away from my work opens @ 7 (same time I start). I may get into work a little late that day (Target is also the exclusive dealer for Dr. Mario amiibo).

Pumpkin is right, I am super hyped for this! Honestly, it took everything in me to hold back the tears of joy. I'm already saying this is my favorite game.

Yeah, it's just like hacking the game, but w/o all the technical jive. I tried using a program to do that once & I didn't like it.

Watch you hate it ahaha

Well, there isn't also an EoFF mod conspiracy relating to that topic THAT'S FOR SURE!!!!

I'm pretty sure all Targets open at 8am except for special events/holidays.

Source: I've worked for Target (on and off) for twelve years

Anyways I don't have a Wii U and don't plan on getting one any time soon, so no Mario Maker for me. This is one of those games that I really wish was on 3DS because it seems like it would be perfect for it.

Yeah, I know that, I just still don't get the level of hype. Level building as part of a game is nothing new. Lots of other games have been focused on this, or had it as part of a game and done it really well.

The big draw here is it's Mario! that's doing it. That's great, but I just think sometimes Nintendo get's too much credit for things they're doing simply because of the franchises attached to their ideas and not because the ideas themselves are anything that revolutionary.
