Two versions of the 8-bit Mario amiibo too ⊟
Tapping one of these figures on your Wii U Game Pad while playing Super Mario Maker “adds a Big Mushroom power-up to your course, allowing Mario to grow big and bust blocks from any direction, as well as adding a retro visual filter to the game, reminiscent of older cathode ray tube televisions.”
“[And] many other amiibo will also be compatible with Super Mario Maker through the use of a new item called the Mystery Mushroom. This item allows Mario to take the appearance of many other characters, such as Link, Kirby or Wii Fit Trainer, complete with character-specific animations and sound effects.”
Super Mario Maker is really cool – it’ll launch in North America on September 11, Here’s a new E3 trailer! Via FarmboyinJapan!
