Famitsu

Famitsu is reporting that over 3.2 million courses have been created in Super Mario Maker. About a month ago, that number was at 2.2 million units.

Famitsu also has news about its collaboration content in Super Mario Maker. In order to obtain Nekki – the magazine’s mascot – as a costume for Mario, players will need to clear a level designed by the editorial team.

Some of you may be aware that Famitsu reviews are often published by four different editors. The magazine decided to settle on the level that will be made available to players in Super Mario Maker by reversing things a bit. Four Nintendo representatives were put in charge of judging and ultimately determining the level that will be distributed. The lineup includes producer Takasahi Tezuka, director Yosuke Oshino, senior director Yoshikazu Yamashita, and Yamamura from Nintendo News.

This week, Famitsu has another feature on The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes. Along with a general article about the game, there’s also a small interview with some of the game’s developers, including series producer Eiji Aonuma. Although most of the discussion naturally focused on Tri Force Heroes, Famitsu did ask a couple of other questions about the franchise.

Next year will be the 30th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda. When Famitsu mentioned this, Aonuma told the magazine:

“This year we wanted a Majora’s Mask concert, so it is not impossible that there may be a 30th anniversary concert next year. However, as we are trying to complete the new Zelda as fast as possible, that is all that is on our minds. That being said, we hope something will take form for the 30th anniversary. It is especially important to a producer of the series, so I hope to give something everyone can look forward to next year.”

Last week, the Japanese Hyrule Warriors Twitter account teased news about the upcoming 3DS game. Famitsu followed through by revealing a couple of new characters. We now know that Skull Kid will be playable, and Phantom Ganon will be appearing as a boss.

The mischievous imp Skull Kid uses an ocarina as his main tool. Famitsu describes him as a demon who stole the hero’s ocarina from a parallel world and then placed the curse of the mask upon him. He may be violent and love pranks, but deep in his heart he treasures his friends. Using the ocarina, he fights alongside fairies.
