Update (8/17): Bumped to the top. The original Miiverse post has been located, which would indicate that the costume is indeed featured in the game.


The image above has been making the rounds on social media today. If it’s a legitimate image (which is a big question at the moment), then it would confirm that Super Mario Maker has a Tingle outfit. Obviously there is no Tingle amiibo, so it would simply be an unlockable costume for 8-bit Mario.

It’s tough to say if the screenshot was taken from Super Mario Maker, or if it’s an edited image. What do you guys think?

Nintendo has updated its Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon website with more details about the game. It’s now known that the game takes up 1.8GB, which is roughly 14,400 blocks.

As previously mentioned, Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon supports StreetPass and local wireless functionality. The former feature allows you to pass helper Pokemon to other players while the latter lets you rescue other people.

Here are a couple of very tiny clips from the website:

After a bit of a hiatus with Just a Chat, Daan are I are back to discuss the latest week of Nintendo news. That includes Super Mario Maker, Splatoon, Runbow, and more.

In a recent issue of Famitsu, the magazine caught up with several of the developers behind Splatoon. The lineup included producer Hisashi Nogami, art director Seita Inoue, and designer Keisuke Nishimori. Toru Minegishi and Yuki Tsuji, who worked on the game’s sound, were also in the discussion.

We’ve been poking through Famitsu’s interview again, and came across a few more interesting excerpts. We now have those ready to share.

During the interview, Famitsu asks if things like the characters’ “heads tall” ratio were firmly decided when characters were still rabbits. The developers were basically asked about body proportions and how big the head was going to be compared to the body as a whole.

Inoue and Nogami replied:

Inoue: “That wasn’t changed to an extent. As this is an action game, if you don’t make the action easy to see to a certain degree, it feels out of touch, so it was decided to have big legs and hands.”

Nogami: “There was also a reason to have a low ‘heads tall’ ratio. You can tell when a character is covered in ink from an attack because the head is big. It isn’t so just to make them look cute.”

Another topic brought up during the interview was the design points of the Inkling boy and girl. Inoue mentioned that they wanted to make elements such as the eyes and tentacles easily visible, but the form and silhouette were given a great deal of attention.
