At E3 2015 last week, GameXplain sat down with Super Mario Maker Takashi Tezuka and Yosuke Oshino for a chat about Super Mario Maker. You can watch it in full below. I’ve also attached some notes that I thought were particularly interesting.
– Was decided to make it only a single-player game early on
– Online functionality was also decided early on
– Nintendo was worried about the servers being flooded with levels and being unable to find them, so a lot of work was put in to make sure players can find the great ones admist so-so levels
– Can’t download a level, edit it, and reupload; done to avoid copycat levels
– Can only upload 1 level at a time, not full-scale Mario adventures
– Hard cap on the number of objects you can have in a level, but you probably won’t ever notice it
– Nintendo will be able to distribute courses to players
– No DLC plans for things like enemies and objects
– Once again, no Koopalings
– Different amiibo suits only change the sound effects/different animations for clearing the course
– Nintendo has more stuff to reveal for Super Mario Maker
– Tezuka’s favorite Mario game is Super Mario Bros. 3
– Oshino’s favorite Mario game is Super Mario World

Deadline is reporting that Dwayne Johnson – otherwise known as The Rock – will be starring in a live action movie based on the Midway game Rampage.
In the original title, players could take on the roles of George the gorilla, Lizzie the lizard and Ralph the werewolf. The game tasks them with reducing different North American cities to rubble.
New Line Cinema is handling the film, which will begin production next summer. Plot details are currently being kept under wraps, but Johnson’s character “gets in [the monsters’] way.”
Ryan Eagle is handling the Rampage movie script. Beau Flynn will act as its producer.
Rampage originally came to arcades in 1986. It later ended up on the NES, N64, and GameCube in various forms.
Polygon has put up another round of quotes from Reggie Fils-Aime, this time focusing entirely on amiibo. The main takeaway is how Reggie conveyed that they won’t distract Nintendo from its bread and butter: making games. Other than that, he commented more on the supply for figures and a few other areas.
All of Reggie’s comments can be read below.
