Though I did like how they were used in DK's Kong Country. They look good there, really helping the jungle feeling and giving some wonderful texture along with all the foliage.

I really want to skip to day 9 but I'm a little paranoid about getting banned. It would suck to get a brand new Wii U for my most anticipated game of the year just to get banned the same day.
How and why would you get banned?
So should I just set my wiiU clock back 9 days before I stick the disk in?
Has this been confirmed to work in bypassing the content lock? And there'll be no repercussions?
I don't have a problem with the rollout, I just want to get into advanced stuff quickly and figure I can handle it.

if Nintendo banned people for bypassing their stupid little timer, that'd be one of the dumbest things they could do. You won't get banned.
It's not a real life timer. You need to play for five minutes each day for nine days to unlock everything. Those days don't need to be consecutive. In order to unlock everything on day one you'd need to play for a few minutes until the stuff is unlocked, set your clock forward a day, and then repeat the process eight more times.

I wonder if you can re-make Super Mario Brother 2 USA's levels pretty faithfully minus some enemies and the pick-up mechanic of course? Anyone try this yet...seems like an obvious one.
Although I guess the levels are big enough you might need 2 levels.

Oh yea, I get that alright, I'll have to play for 5min, set clock forward, do another 5 min, repeat. Just wondering if this is confirmed to work in bypassing the content lock?
Do I need to turn off wifi or anything so the time doesn't auto update?
Mario Bros 2 levels can have quite a lot of verticality (the first level starts with a drop) so they may be too tall for Mario Maker.
No idea about turning off wifi, but based on what I read about the review build, yep, it should work without issue.
This highlights one of my fears of this game: overuse of visual and sound effects. Makes good levels seem really tacky imo.
Also, why use Donkey Kong? Mario was the PC for the original Donkey Kong. And the ? block in the Arcade could have held a star for more authenticity.

So...that Stage has a Mario 3 song playing in the Mario 1-style...how exactly does the song selection work anyway?
That's a "sound effect", the little frog can add bonus stage or bowser/boss music where you want on the course.
You can notice it directly when DK goes out of the pipe.
daydreaming claimed it in the OT thread like a year ago.

The star would have made it waaay too easy, and obscured the music. And they chose DK for the classic music and sound effects which better match the theme of the game
Neogaf rules, OT not allowed to be created till day -1, in saying that I just had an email from Game to say my copy has shipped so should be here tomorrow or Wednesday.
Oh shit. I was still thinking in terms of the old 1 week rule.

For some reason, the Mario Bros boss theme, rather than a new theme like most other bgms for new situations in the game (like Ghost house in SMB1) is just the Mario 3 minor-boss battle theme.
Not sure if these Eurogamer vids were posted yet:

I'm pretty confident you'll get it at 9pm Thursday where you are
I like your confidence
Across the continent? I don't know how many time zones there are there
Midnight of each time zone, obviously
is he flipping the player off when hes idle?
Please show the "see more" link in the page of notifications of who played your level

A few sites are using old images in the "games that will launch this week" and it is interesting to see the diferences
For example the diferent icon for "? block" with coin and with mushroom, that implys tht you could not put enemies there
The big change is of course the graphics. Gone is the grid background and gradient shading trying to give the SMB theme a 'modern' look.
Looking at the original trailer I'm reminded that the Mario Paint fly swatter clapping is gone from completing a level.
Also we've seen lanky Mario, but is that original squashed Mario shown off here with the glitch Mushroom still in the game? I haven't seen it once.
It isn't obvious, games get released here according to est midnight all the time
Didn't know that sorry
Maybe it's because in EU there's only two time zones (and one of them is just for UK, Portugal and Ireland), and you got... six? There is one thing I'd like to know but you don't have to do it in the live stream. Just tell me if you can place bullet bill blasters on tracks at various heights. I know you can put ones on that are 3 tiles tall but can you make them taller and put those on?

Biggest Nintendo advertisement I've seen in years.
For Mario Maker I think I am going to remake

I guess a Goomba is more representative of SMB and Sidesteppers and Shellcreepers more representative of Mario Bros. which I guess it's fine that gets representation after all it's still the predecessor of Super Mario Bros., at least in my opinion.
Perhaps we could be reaching the point that Daisy isn't even showing up on spin-off games after all it's clear that Waluigi is THE spin-off character, heh.

Also, Rosalina/Harmony stole Daisy's spot as "the other princess".
Yup. You can put the bullet bill blasters on the tracks and adjust the height of them.

What I meant is, when making a level, can you choose the BGM for the whole level? Or is it automatically chosen based on the game + theme?
Like could I use the Super Mario World music on a SMB's Bowser's Castle stage?

Chosen based on game + theme.
Had some technical issues preventing the livestream from happening tonight, but it will be a guarantee tomorrow. As an added bonus, I'm currently at Stage 14/16 on Expert with 50 lives remaining. If things don't go to hell, I'll start the stream with the final stages of Expert Mode & then move on to whatever the viewers want to see.
Cool, thanks.
Do I get a notification on my phone whenever you go live?
I've seen it with a few streamers but not all of them.

Am I the only one intentionally not watching much, if any footage in order for most of the tools/features to be a complete surprise?
I hate knowing each and everything about a game before I buy it. The element of surprise is a very special thing.

I don't know how Youtube's notification system works for livestreams. I'll look into that a bit more tomorrow prior to setting up any stream.
I agree with you. This is one of the reasons I never really watched GameXplain (or any YT channel that does full breakdowns) videos because I felt they went into such depth with some games that they removed any wonder and mystery from it. I get making a detailed video, but you don't need to show every item, every enemy, and every possible combination.
