Mario Maker

That is not impossible, a game on the Nintendo 64 called Seaman had it in their game. - If it can be in a old game like that. It can easily be in Super Mario Maker. - And that game doesn't fix your problem, there's game's on PC that does the exact similar thing.

Still it wouldn't fix being able to change the system time yourself. I thought you were saying it as if the system time has to be the same as the save data time stamp, which is indeed impossible as it will never be the same unless your load up the save file right after saving it like I said.

Nintendo can make the game check it upon Game-Startup, this isn't impossible, it can be done.
I don't know what else to say.

Im not saying its impossible for the game to check, Im saying its impossible for both the save data time (the time you last saved) and the current system time, they will never be the same.

The game could just see if the time has been moved forwards. In the Firmware of the WiiU there's a .log that keeps track of the system settings change, and since this is a First-Party Game, Nintendo can imply the code to the game to check the .log to see if the User/Player/Owner has moved the clock time manually, or it has just moved significantly by normal. Because it's made by Nintendo they can add any sort of code to give permissions to their game that they don't allowed Third-Parties.
I'm not saying Nintendo has rescrit Third-Parties to do this, but just saying that Nintendo can anything to their games as they like because it's their console.

So what would happen if you say change the daylight savings setting? That's still technically changing the clock manually. Maybe it would check large changes. I don't think they should go through the trouble of designing code like that, because the reason they're doing the unlock system that way in the first place (as far as I'm aware) is to not overwhelm the players. I don't see why they'd go out of their way to make it so that people who won't get overwhelmed cant access the content faster. They may very well do it anyway, but I don't think they will.

I'm not saying they are going to, just saying there is away.


Spike the conversation above.

$60US is fucking a lot of money for this type of game! - That's like $80NZ to $100NZ!

People are overhyping this game too much. It's so lacking in content and is too expensive.

Or you're not into Mario at all.

Backseat moderating alert, anyway, this game is good as it is to me.

[Valtteri]

Do not backseat moderate. Telling fellow users not to backseat moderate is also backseat moderating, HeroLink64.

To be honest the closer the release date comes, the more I'm starting to get excited for this.

Sure it's not as powerful as SMBX, but it's refreshing to see Nintendo responding to this long-time request from the Mario fandom. The editor is pretty nifty and the concept that you unlock all the functions as you go along is what's gonna keep you wanting to play it. Also I am looking forward to what the mainstream Mario fandom that isn't part of this underground niche community of SMBX will create level-design wise. :P I think if you consider $30 for the levels that come with it and $30 for the level editor with all it's functions, the compatibility with all 4 styles, new music, gfx and the interesting new features, the price becomes reasonable. I'm not too bothered by the lack of in-dept gimmicks like events and layers that SMBX has, because it makes for a new challenge where level design is actually dependant on level design and not fancy gimmicks or custom graphics. Of course SMBX has many pros compared to SMM and will in no way be replaced by SMM, but I'm willing to give it a try.

[bossedit8]

I really have to agree with @Marina! Although a lot of members still refers SMBX as a more capeability editor and PGE is still on construction like it's still on developement to finish SMBX, Super Mario Maker is actually a really good editor to get used to. I also look forward as of how their levels are going to turn out and it will be probably a lot of levels to be played with after a couple of days after the release.

That's just a Drive By Shooting Rang!

I though we should chat here about mm but ok.

I wonder if anyone's going to sprite-rip the amiibo costumes and make some playable characters for SMBX out of them...

On the game itself, it seriously gets cuter and cuter with every video for it I watch. I love it.

And how would someone supposedly do that? - Build a NFC Reading and find/make a program that can read NFC Cards?

Highly doubt it.

You'd be surprised what some people on the internet are capable off. Also people have started ripping elements from the game already from youtube videos. With enough video material the same could happen for the playables. Given that someone actually wants to put up with making a playable from these sprites at all.

I know a lot of what people on the Internet do. Want some links in your PM?

It's not that hard to sprite rip/recreate with pixel games, I mean you could probably just get a screen recorder for the Wii U and keep pressing print screen and slowly rip all the sprites via that. If not then you can very easily recreate the sprites. Like holy shit it's not that hard to rip/recreate any sprites from any pixelated game

[underFlo]

I think the biggest problem with turning those into playables are their dimensions. With the exception of Sonic, every costume has the size of small Mario. That means that you'd still need to create a sheet for big Mario + all his recolors and edits from scratch.
