There’s an extra tidbit of information – a very important one at that – regarding Super Mario Maker’s first update. After applying version 1.01, it appears that the 9-day unlocking system has been removed.

Here’s how the new format works. Rather than having to wait a full day for content to unlock, you now need to wait just 15 minutes after spending that time with level editing. 30 minutes in, you’ll have day 2’s content. The same goes for day 3’s content after 45 minutes – so on and so forth.
