Popoptiq: The Nintendo 64 was in heavy demand upon its release in 1996. Time Magazine called it that rare and glorious middle-class Cabbage Patch-doll frenzy. Nintendos third home video game console (nicknamed N64) was launched with two games outside of Japan: Pilotwings 64, and Super Mario 64, arguably one of the greatest video games to date, and one which all platformers would be compared to henceforth. Super Mario Bros. defined the standards for side-scrolling platform games in 1985, and with Super Mario 64, Nintendo took the franchise to a whole new level.

Popoptiq: There are about eight Mario adventures that could easily be listed within the lexicon of the greatest games ever made, and Super Mario World and Super Mario World 2: Yoshis Island, released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System sit on that list. Super Mario World helped define the 16-bit era, transforming the classic Mario formula into something bigger, faster, brighter, and some would say, better. Meanwhile the follow-up, Yoshis Island, is a wonderful vision of pastel colors, majestic landscapes, and beautiful sprites that represent a mishmash of creativity, and imagination that only Nintendo could bring to life.

Adam Cook: "Super Mario Maker is the game thatll make you smile the most this year. At least thats what I say in my review. But Colm and I got together this past weekend, and played a bit of it on camera, which you can see a kind-of super-cut of, below. Colm is more of a Sonic man, so I talked him through some of my created levels, before he goes online and plays other games media created courses. Then we make a level. Well, he does. Badly. Sort of. Just watch, and know his rage was even funnier in person."

DC: Nintendo does game creation its own way... only this time, you're directly involved. Its been done before, certainly, and with a respectable degree of tact and deliberation, to boot. But its never been done by Nintendo, in that Nintendo kind of way, with all the polish and charm and delightful balance between complexity and accessibility on which the developer prides themselves.
