Leading up to Super Mario Maker’s release on Sept. 11th, we’re highlighting some of the coolest, most creative, or just plain ridiculous levels users have created so far. In this episode, we check out the level “The Ultimate Test” from Michael in the UK.

If you have any suggestions for more levels we should play, just fire them our direction in the comments!

Last month, a listing was spotted on Toys “R” Us for a physical version of Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams Director’s Cut. The game had been on track for September 8 (yes, tomorrow!), but it seems as though a delay has entered the picture. Toys “R” Us now lists Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams Director’s Cut for October 9.

Thanks to Jared for the tip.

The latest video from Family Gamer TV gives us a look at the different Doctors available in LEGO Dimensions. Check it out below.

Eurogamer has posted a couple of interesting Super Mario Maker-related videos. Below, you’ll see Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka playing the game. They also discuss the creation of World 1-1 in the original Super Mario Bros.

Tomorrow, a new rule set will be added to Devil’s Third in Europe and Japan.

The game will be receiving the new “Guardian” Drill mode. Those who play the rule set between September 8 and September 15 can receive five times the experience points.

Before this new content is added in, Devil’s Third will be undergoing a few hours of maintenance. Online play will be affected between 2 AM and 5 AM CEST.
