Wii U

In what will probably be the final gameplay video for LEGO Dimensions we post on the site, Family Gamer TV has 30 more minutes of footage of the title with its developers. Check it out below.

Even more footage from LEGO Dimensions has come online, once again from IGN. Give the video below a look to see the game’s content surrounding The Simpsons.

Popular YouTube channel 8-BitGaming recently constructed a level in Super Mario Maker, and a few of the game’s developers took on the challenge of completing it. Takashi Tezuka, director Yosuke Oshino, and senior director Yoshikazu Yamashita all gave it a shot. Check out their results in the video below.

GameSpot has posted more footage from LEGO Dimensions. Watch the new video below.

IGN has posted a video of the first 15 minutes from LEGO Dimensions. Take a look at it below.

Nintendo has shipped a few Wii U games at $40 – notably Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker as well as Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. We may soon have another title with the same price point on our hands.

I didn’t make too much of it at the time, but retailer Newegg recently added a listing to its website for Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash. Consumers can reserve it for $39.99, which is supposedly $20 in savings. I’d wager that it’s instead the game’s final price point.

The Nintendo UK store also just put up its listing for Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash. It can be pre-ordered for £39.99, and since this is Nintendo’s store, that’s about as official as things get.

So although it’s not absolutely confirmed, $40 (£40 for our UK friends) is looking like Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash’s final price point. That’d probably go over much better than if it were $60!

Those who pre-order Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash on the Nintendo UK store will receive a couple of bonuses. Nintendo is giving out a free Mario soft toy and tennis ball.

If you’re interested in pre-ordering, you can do so here. The game will be available on November 20.

The folks over at GameXplain found an invincibility glitch in Super Mario Maker. For the glitch to activate, you need to place a door on a set of spikes while ensuring that Mario has a second-tier powerup (Fire Flower, Propeller Hat etc.). You need to step on the spikes and enter the door during the period when Mario is invulnerable after taking damage. When you emerge from the other door, Mario can’t be damaged in any way. Check out the video below which demonstrates the glitch in greater detail:
