Super Mario Maker

Back when Super Mario Maker, the upcoming new Super Mario game launching soon in all regions on Wii U, has been announced, Nintendo only showed the classic 8-bit Super Mario Bros. play style, making players think that all stages were going to play like classic Super Mario Bros. ones. Nintendo, however, later confirmed that other game styles based on Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World and New Super Mario Bros. U were going to be included in the game. As the four games have different mechanics and power-ups, some of the Super Mario Maker features are only going to be available in specific game styles.

A new Super Mario Maker trailer which has been shared by Nintendo on its official Japanese YouTube channel showcases the four different game styles included in the game and also highlights some of the features that are available exclusively in select styles. You can check out the new trailer right below.

Like all recent Nintendo published titles, Super Mario Maker is going to come with amiibo functionality. Players will be able to unlock special costumes by using corresponding figures. A new trailer made available earlier this week showcases what players will be able to do with amiibos in Super Mario Maker.

Another Super Mario Maker trailer has also been made available earlier this week. The video showcases a really useful tool that will help players place platforms correctly. One more trailer has also been made available recently, showcasing one of the more recognizable elements of the Super Mario series, the Question Mark block.

Super Mario Maker will be released in North America, Japan and Europe this September exclusively on Wii U. More on the game is surely going to come in in the next few days and we will keep you updated on everything as soon as possible so stay tuned for all the latest news.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
