this video is brought to you by Nintendo
of Canada get ready to play a near
infinite number of side-scrolling 2d
Mario courses anytime anywhere Super
Mario maker may seem like a simple
concept but leave it up to creative
Nintendo fans to really think outside
the question mark box welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
things you didn’t know you could do in
Mario maker for this list we’re looking
at the absurd crazy and lesser known
features and tricks that players have
used to create unique and amazing
creations number 10 unlimited uniquely
themed levels it would be easy to assume
that Super Mario maker is little more
than a great tool for turning out Mario
levels that look like they were ripped
right out of the games themselves while
Mario maker is amazing at that the
amount of tools and limitless room for
creativity the game offers has let
players create levels that are simple
yet mind-bending it sounds cliche but
imagination is the only limit here as
levels like the bombing of mushroom town
bring in tangible themes that you
wouldn’t normally associate with the
portly plumber
number nine semi-solid decorations it’s
kind of easy to make a level that plays
unique but when you have a very specific
theme in mind sometimes a little extra
visual flair can help get that vision
across semi-solid platforms are objects
that mario can jump through from the
bottom and run along the top because
they exist in the middle ground they
appear behind any objects or enemies
that are placed in the same space that
they are using them creatively can
completely change how a level looks
adding unique layers of detail to
otherwise bland creations right-half
thwomps smash through cloud blocks
[Music]
fans of the 2d Mario classics are used
to seeing these angry smashing blocks
almost exclusively in dungeon and castle
levels of course with Mario maker
thwomps can show up anywhere but using
them to their full extent or doing
something unique and interesting with
them can be quite a challenge we bet you
didn’t know that the smiling clown
blocks that are usually indestructible
our new match for the power of a swamp
this combination creates not only added
challenge for the player as it causes
Mario to lose precious ground but it
also puts unique visual spin on player
creations number 7 make bill blasters
bounce on springboards bullet Bill’s are
a notorious enemy relentless and
difficult to predict a few of them on
the screen can be a nightmare for all
but the most seasoned Mario veterans
Mario makers devilish ability to stack
these cannons on other objects and
enemies can make for some extremely
difficult obstacles stack them on top of
a springboard and often frustrating an
unpredictable object in its own right
and you have a combination that can
challenge even the best players
[Music]
seriously this can really get out of
hand so we urge all players to use this
trick with discretion
[Music]
number six buff booze with clown cars
earlier we said that simple concepts can
lead to endless possibilities and stuff
like this is what we were talking about
putting a boo in one of Bowser’s flying
Koopa clown cars means that the car will
still behave like a normal boot meaning
it will freeze in place when Mario looks
in its direction but come alive when
Mario looks away this combination not
only makes for a more dangerous version
of the notorious ghosts but when used
creatively can allow Mario to remotely
control the clown car itself
[Music]
this can also make for some pretty
creative and difficult puzzles as the
player will have to indirectly think
about the movement of something other
than Mario
[Music]
number five blue skull platforms as
waves for another example of how a
simple concept can really break the mold
and make something unique check this out
using a series of perfectly timed blue
skull platforms we get the awesome
effect of Mario running through the
level on a mesmerizing wave players are
good at creating challenging obstacles
and visual marbles but it’s only the
very best levels that combine the two
into something truly special number four
neck suits the game tells you right from
the get-go that you can stack enemies
and objects on top of each other and
we’ve seen some really creative uses of
that feature creating a mech suit though
has to be by far the most elaborate and
mind-blowing creation we’ve seen so far
the game does put some limits on what
can and can’t be stacked but creative
players have learned to work around
those limits to create hulking
Frankenstein esque monstrosities that
are as overwhelming as they are
difficult to overcome
number three collaborate to innovate two
heads can be better than one the 3ds
version of Super Mario maker allows you
to collaborate with friends to make
courses together now you can get the
ball rolling on your level pass it over
to your friend for that special touch
and then enjoy the fruits of your
cooperation together with your own
imagination offering you limitless
possibilities just think of what you can
create when you have a helping hand and
StreetPass allowing you to pick up
courses on the go you’ll never be short
on surprises number 2 use the stiletto
variant of the Goomba shoe to smash
blocks fans at Super Mario Brothers 3
will of course remember the infamous
Goomba shoe
a wind-up green boot that Mario could
drive around that came and went in a
single level and was barely heard from
ever again bringing it back in tomorrow
maker finally gave players a chance not
only to try it out in whole new levels
but it made for some wacky fun on its
own even more fun turning the Stiletto
variant into a giant shoe allows Mario
to wreak complete havoc destroy
otherwise invincible blocks and even
kill enemies like cannons and flumps
sweet sweet red revenge number one
create your own boss paddles
[Music]
boss battles are a staple of most video
games and creative players who take
pride in their Mario maker creations
have come up with ways to insert boss
battles throughout their levels of
course Mario’s nemesis bouncer is
placeable anywhere but throughout the
years most players have gotten really
good at bypassing him thus players
started to use their ingenuity and
creativity to create foe boss battles
that can make for some memorable and
often unforgettable surprises this was
such a popular and fun thing to do that
Nintendo even added a key into the game
that allowed players to make their boss
battles more official by giving level
designers the ability to halt Mario’s
progress until the boss was defeated
so do you agree with our list what
amazing things have you created in Super
Mario maker for more well-constructed
top 10s published every day be sure to
