The editors didn't like
Can't share levels online
Some levels are simply too hard
Annoyingly forces you to wait before relinquishing all its tools
Will lead some to realise that they weren't cut out for developing games
Unlocking new tools is somewhat arbitrary
Online courses are hit and miss
Smaller touchscreen space to create
Missing features limit creative potential
Content unlocking process is unnecessarily restrictive
An array of joyous, challenging stages, Nostalgic melding of 8bit art with more recent enemies and items, Catchy remixes of classic Mario tunes, Wonderful surprises and Easter Eggs to discover
Unlocking all the design elements is a little too slow, Customization tools don't allow you to deviate from the Mario formula much (no music creator, character palette customization, etc.)

Abstract: "Here we GOOOOO!" It's hard to believe that Mario has been around 30+ years already. It's even harder to believe that in 2015 we are getting a new Mario title and it's something that has never been done with the character before. We have seen Mario; play...

Abstract: Nintendo, often labeled as a xenophobic game developer who keeps their designs close to the vest and their secrets puckered up tighter than a snare drum, has opened the floodgates to would-be designers. Now their most sacred franchise, Super Mario Bros...

Super Mario Maker is a great creative title for beginners, but offers enough to entertain advanced designers. While there are some questionable limitations in place, there's still more than enough to do to stay busy for quite some time. If you want to s...
Abstract: The game includes a book totaling about 100 pages that illustrates the boundless possibilities in Super Mario Maker. Nintendo will also release two special Mario amiibo figures to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the original Super Mario Bros. game. Tapp...
Abstract: This year at E3 2015, we had a chance to play a game that is far more fun than it has any right to be: Super Mario Maker. You may remember this game, which was just called Mario Maker at the time, from last year's E3. Back then, it was just a very bare b...
