Patrick Scott Patterson explores the pros and cons of the newly announced Xbox Elite controller as well as Super Mario Maker for the WiiU in a special guest post for The Games Cabin.
Super Mario Maker's last level has been beaten, after Trimming the Herbs was revealed to be totally bogus.
Super Mario Maker has been a great series for Nintendo, but it is time to move on. How about a Metroid Maker? That would be interesting! Check out Jason Capo’s thoughts for more.
Metroid certainly would be cool, but 100% Zelda dungeon maker should be the priority! It makes the most sense!
The only issue with Zelda, for me, is that it won't have the same freedom of styles that Mario Marker has. Zelda 1, LttP, and the Game Boy ones could all possibly work, but Zelda also has a lot of 3D games. I guess if you limited the styles to Original Zelda, LttP, Minish Cap, and Link's Awakening, that could work. That's four different styles for a dungeon maker, but I think a Metroid Maker is closer to Mario and would probably be easier to make.
@Jeriphro Mario Maker drew mostly from its 2D roots, so I take no issue with a 2D only Zelda Maker. However, they also translated Mario 3D World elements into the 2D space, so I wouldn't mind that they do something similar with overhead Zelda games using more modern 3D elements too. A Link to the Past Remake shows how nice 3D elements can be implemented into the standard overhead Zelda view.
2D Zeldas were the games I grew up on anyways, A Link to the Past being one of my favorite games of all times! They halfway attempted a creator within the Links Awakening remake, but I'd like to see a fully realized creator. Of course though, Super Metroid was also once of my favorite games of all times so I'm dying to see a Metroid maker too. ;)
I'd go either for Metroid Maker a Zelda Maker would also be great even a Mario Kart Maker as well.
Nintendo has announced that as of Jan. 12, 2021, the original Super Mario Maker game for the Wii U will not be available for purchase on the eShop.
I mean there is a sequel available. My guess is Nintendo will want you to move towards a more current version.
Maybe this controller is where that million dollar R&D was going to as I see DigitalRaptor always saying in other comments.
Way too expensive for me, but it is a nice piece of tech.
Going to order me one of them just in time for Halo 5 on XB1 and Fallout 4 on my PC.
Damn that's one sexy controller. I want it so bad but I can't do no $150. If it was $100 I could get for $60-$70 and I'd buy it quick. Play and charge kit should be include.
I must hold it 😍
I know that it's pretty pricey, but from what I've seen, it's pricing is in line with other premium controller offerings like those from Scuf. From all that I've read and seen this controller also seems to be nothing short of top notch. I already pre-ordered one on Amazon, and I'm pretty stoked for the chance to use it. I'm wondering if it will be able to be charged with my dual charging docking station. I hope so, and I would think that would be. I'm actually typically a fan of having my controllers come equipped with replaceable AA batteries, though I'd really like to see this one be equipped with a high quality, long lasting, built in battery. I just realized that I'm far more excited for this thing than I should be for a peripheral that's not Morpheus or Hololens lol.
Going to grab one of these to replace my dodgy xbox day one edition controller
