Looks fantastic. Can't wait to play, and it's great to see that it isn't just SMB 1 physics.

I forgot about this game. Wow, can't wait.

Yaasssss, looks so much better! Now what are the chances of Peach becoming playable in this?

All of this is fine, but they need to make the physics accurate to the games for this to work.

That sounds great! I've wanted a game like this for a looooooong time!

I'd be surprised if the game didn't ship with some example levels, and there will probably be level sharing online, but the main purpose of the software seems to level creation.
I'm hopeful that the level sharing will be robust enough that merely playing other peoples' levels will be a rewarding experience.

You know, since this game is (I assume) in HD, wouldn't that mean that they had to make SMB, SMB3 and SMW assests in HD? Would be cool to get an HD collection or something.

So at 0:26-0:27 in this webm, those bullet hell enemies, they're new aren't they? I don't recall ever seeing that enemy in a Mario game before, at least one that shoots stuff like that.

They're spinys curled up, like when Lakitu throws them. Them shooting spikes is new.
They confirmed at E3 that the physics were going to be based on SMB1 instead of NSMB.
That is odd. Those are parabeetles, but with projectiles in all directions. And spikes, but I don't remember parabeetles ever having those. Perhaps you can change traditional Mario enemies' attack styles?

That's awesome.
Maybe they've been combined with another enemy. I wanna say that attack pattern looks familiar but I can't put my finger on the enemy I'd recognise it from.
Looks great. Online sharing is obviously a must, and hopefully you'll be able to string a few levels together (making a miniature game of sort, comprising maybe 4 or 5 individual levels) and the limits on level size and asset use won't be too strict. Very much down for this, hopefully it'll be early 2015.

Yesssss
Now bring in SMB2 also. I hope that you can change the physics to each respective game too. Being able to shoot a Koopa shell upwards in SMW is one of my favourite things to do in a Mario game.

I have a mental image of the enemy right before me.
It's like an oversized red spiny/hedgehog-y thing that spins around, stops and shoots out the spikes.
This is probably from a whole other game but man, it's driving me insane.
Edit: I remembered - I was thinking of a Mega Man 3 enemy (middle of bottom row):
Moving on.
They said it's a new physics engine. Not totally NSMBU and not totally SMB1. The different skins are still just skins.
Mario Maker is looking great. I'm glad they added vertical scrolling. I was worried about that.
I'll be thoroughly impressed if I see ramps and diagonals, in true SMW style.
But either way, I'm warming up to the idea of this game having its own physics engine, unique from the existing games. It makes it unique from being a straight-on hacking tool like Lunar Magic, and gives me a reason why I shouldn't just use those instead.

I'm amazed there's not insane levels of hype surrounding this game, but I guess time will change that. Mario nerds are going to do some insane stuff with this, and also figure out how hard perfect level design is.
Good video. I hope this mean that Nintendo will abandon New Super Mario and create a new 2D series with new mechanics and better graphics than that.
It's like Mario Kart. They launch 3 games with a similar look, but now, and finally, we have a Mario Kart with a new look and new mechanics.
Super Mario deserves the treatment that Mario Kart have.

Can someone make a gif of those coins just blasting Mario in the face like that?
I need it for, ah, research.

Can someone please recreate Mario Bros 3 and SMW? We may finally get to play these in HD.

But we've seen things like SMB3 specific ending screen and leaf power up and NSMB wall jumping so each screen has to have some kind of unique gameplay elements.
the way the gif loops make it look like the coins are killing him :lol
That is true. Maybe Nintendo will recreate suits and other mechanics for the other styles as well. An example being a Super Mario Bros. 3 styled Mario wall-jumping. I don't see why they couldn't do that.
Edit: And don't get me wrong. I would prefer each style have its own physics engine that is of its own game, but at this point I just have to sit around and hope for the best.

Do we know what design options we have other than making the levels themselves? Half the fun is what happens outside the stages in Mario games, like how the difficulty is balanced over the course of the game, along with hidden and alternate routes.
I'd love to be able to play as whatever Amiibo you scan.
