Earlier today, Nintendo announced Mr. Saturn and Master Belch costumes for Super Mario Maker. Both of these are now available and can be unlocked once two new Event Courses are completed.

Below are overviews of the levels:

Welcome to Saturn Valley

“This is Saturn Valley. The Mr. Saturns live happily here, along with many unusual creations. Try searching for the Mr. Saturns hiding over the place – in houses, caves, and more! If you reach the goal as Mr. Saturn, you’ll have good luck all day long! … Probably.”

Belch Base

“Nobody can stop you when you’re the great Master Belch! Use your slime powers to assert dominance over, er… your own base.

By the way, you have precisely 4 chances to transform into the great Master Belch. If you find them all, you’ll be filled with an overwhelming sense of satisfaction! Probably.”

A new update, version 1.8.8, was released for Minecraft on most consoles today. It adds new items, blocks, mocks, biomes, and plenty of other features. The patch is said to be Mojang’s “biggest update ever, bringing the console versions closer to the current PC build than they’ve ever been before.”

If you have a PlayStation or Xbox console, you can grab the patch right now. But unfortunately, Mojang says that it won’t be hitting Wii U “until some time next year.”

You can find a trailer showing Minecraft’s 1.8.8 console update below. The full list of additions are at the source link.
