Super Mario Maker 2 is getting its final update. Will add World Maker mode on 4/22 + insane amount of other new stuff

Sad to see them stop, I really thought this was Nintendos true GaaS. Going out with a bang tho!
Have they ever "fixed" all the weird changes they made from 1, which are basically the reason the hardcore MM1 community never went over to 2?
Like physic stuff, some weird limitations on how you create a course or combinate certain things. You know, all the detailed stuff we discussed about when this game was new.

It sucks that it is the last update but man, it's a meaty piece of free content. Really like the World Maker portion. I rather handle 40 courses over 8 worlds than all those 100 Mario Challenges.
Oh, I didn't see that. That's a bummer :(
I was thinking we could have it in all styles.
MM2 is one of the few series that hasn't massively grown on the switch, right?
i wonder if this is the last new MM content we'll get in a while.
i also wonder if Nintendo emphasizes the Maker part a bit too much in the marketing , when 90% of the game is playing other levels, especially for casual fans

Well, I certainly did not see that coming. Can't wait to get my hands on this update tomorrow. :)
By the way, I'm kind of weirded out by how they seem to have changed how the power balloon works from Super Mario World. In that game, it made you float very sluggishly around with no controls except the directional ones. The one in this update seems like just a variation of the swimming mechanics, which isn't at all the same thing as the original. I don't understand why they made this choice.

This is so cool. I played a lot of it around the release, but fell out after starting to play something else, and never returned to it, even after the earlier update (updates?). This is definitely something I can't skip.
Ahhhhh, feels good.
Too bad they're already banned.
World making is something thats been sorely missing since the original release on Wii U. It still baffles me it was not in the game on release. And it should obviously have been named "Super Mario World Maker".
The Koopakids haven't been Bowser's kids since Baby Bowser became Bowser Jr. Bowser Jr is Bowser's kid, the Koopalings are just some people he works with now
"censored" is a real weird word to use in this context. It's a retcon that has existed since NSMB Wii
I'm really glad we're getting such a substantial update, but very weird to clearly earmark it as the last major one. There's still a lot of missing things too. A full SMB2 theme is the elephant in the room. It looks like they were starting to make it, then cut it short and just implemented some of the mechanics and a few enemies. I don't know what that means for the future of the series.
Probably because it would've been too similar to the existing mechanics of the Koopa Clown Car.

I fell of the game rather quickly compared to the first but this will pull me back in :-)
How is the Community and the quality of User-Content right now (in general)?

I don't think it is a retcon even, I think it was the NoA translation of the manual that named them as Koopa's kids, not Nintendo.
This is actually an interesting point. I don't LOVE making levels (and it's time consuming), and other than the fantastic 100 Nintendo-made levels, it doesn't have the best setup for finding solid levels.
It would be cool if Nintendo somehow curated it. Maybe they chose 100 great levels every month and put them permanently in a section in the game? Then you get medals if you beat them all which show up next to your avatar? I don't know. Some times finding levels online and beating them feels a bit aimless.
I also found it to be a big missed opportunity that they didn't have levels that required two players, or a more focused approach to curated multiplayer content.
With that said, I'm complaining, and I think SMM2 is a wonderful package and the world's thing sounds fantastic.
It's incredible. The type of creative stuff out there is mind boggling. You need to use reddit though and the in game search tools.
That's pretty damn awesome! I haven't touched Super Mario Maker 2 in months, but I'll definitely jump back in for this update to toy around with the new features.
me_irlEuropeans waking up right now:
Sad it is the last content update, it didn't catch on fire as much as I had hoped, but if this is the last bang, damn is it loud.
Alot if them do, you can find them easiest on Reddit or Discord somewhere. Or use the search engine ingane, of course.
World builder sounds great, looking forward to see awesome creations.
My only wish is that they increased the number of levels you can have saved. The current limit is 120 and my son has a really hard time choosing what level to overwrite when he makes a new one :( why even have a limit? And I'm not talking about uploaded levels, only local.

We will get so many full SMB1 remakes now.
Bit of a bummer this is the final update but it's great this has the by far most requested feature.
Only major blow is the lack of a bookmark site still. They even have that stupid Nintendo Online app now.
Lack of traditional 100 man mode is also sad. Endless mode was never really as fun to me with no real goal.

Wow :D! So glad they didn't save this for a sequel or something. Let's hope it gives the game some more flow when playing other people's work.
hmm I haven't made many levels but could you kind of simulate that by having Browser give you a key on death? Or perhaps Bowser doesn't even jump and crush blocks like in SMB3 original, can't remember.
That's amazing, not gonna lie. World builder, SMB2 mode, tons of new elements to make puzzles and such.
Makes it even bigger of a bummer they didn't include some of this stuff like the world builder at launch, how they went this long with a radio silence making it unclear if they're even working on it anymore, and that this will be the last update after less than a year the game's been out. Still, this makes it more likely I continue the game, I left it behind a while ago despite really enjoying it for some of the aforementioned reasons.

updates are different from dlc. The game can still have paid dlc. I'm guessing new game styleS will be paid dlc.
This is sweet. I wish it had launched with it though.
smb2 mushroom might mean they're setting Things up for a SMB2 dlc
same here. I still played a lot of it but it didn't grab me like the first game. It's just lacking the weirdness and charm of the first game. The Wii U pad was also perfect for it. the hundred or so costumes were so good to unlock. Added a ton to the game
