Mario Maker Level Named After 'Unsolvable' Math Problem Lives Up To Its Name

I’ve watched a Super Mario Maker player by the name of ReflectivistFox play through a stage called Fermat’s Last Theorem twice now. It takes nearly eight minutes, involves an unthinkable number of perfectly calculated moves and jumps, and I can’t fathom the patience it took for ReflectivistFox to figure it out.

The level’s author, Mr_Enzyme, is the one who actually pointed it out to me.

“It’s the hardest puzzle I’ve seen in the game so far,” he said, “and I didn’t think anyone would beat it for a lot longer, but I underestimated the internet.”

All very well but I wish I could read about people who just wanted to make a well crafted level like Miyamoto. He came up with deceptively simple ideas that made the series so relaxingly replayable. People seem to think the best way to impress is to create Super Meat Boy difficulty in Mario.

I agree...this just looks absurd. Where is the fun?

Super Mario Maker is a real game for gamers.

Metroid Maker Should Be Next to Get a Super Mario Maker Treatment

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.

I hope Nintendo brings back real dungeons in BOTW 2!

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. ;)

Metroid Maker is a sweet idea

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.
