Super Mario Maker 2 increases upload cap to 100 levels

Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments

Super Mario Maker 2 originally limited players to uploading up to 32 courses online. Then at the end of July, the cap was increased to 64. It has now been raised once again.

Following a bit of maintenance, Super Mario Maker 2 players can now upload a maximum of 100 courses. This is expected to be the final increase for the game. Nintendo had said in July that it would be raising the limit “one more time”, so that should be it.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Mary Skelter 2 released on the Australian Switch eShop after it was refused classification

Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments

At the end of October, Mary Skelter 2 was refused classification in Australia. The game did not receive its rating and was essentially banned in the region. Yet a couple of months later, it seems a release has happened after all.

Mary Skelter 2 popped up on the Australian eShop earlier today without any prior notice. It’s carrying an understandably high R 18+ rating, but there don’t appear to be any changes to the game’s content.

Those who are interested in the title can currently get it at 20 percent off in Australia.
