Gameplay

Players can create their own 2D Super Mario courses by dragging elements onto the stage with the Wii U GamePad and adjusting them by either. Players can create courses in the style of Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and New Super Mario Bros. U, all of which recreate their respective games' gameplay mostly faithfully. The properties of various enemies and objects can be adjusted by shaking them or placing other items or objects on them. While some assets are game-exclusive, certain assets have been created for graphical styles that they did not debut in (e.g. a Super Mario Bros.-style Chain Chomp, an enemy that debuted in Super Mario Bros. 3). New powerups also appear, such as the Weird Mushroom, which gives Mario a distorted appearance and Luigi's physics, and the Mystery Mushroom, which allows Mario to transform into one of several other characters by tapping an amiibo on the Wii U GamePad, though these are restricted to the Super Mario Bros. graphical style.

Players are able to share their courses with the rest of the world and download courses from other players, as well as post Miiverse comments on other players' courses at any time by pausing or after completion and can also "star" them. Uploading is at first limited to 10 courses, but this can be increased if other players star their courses. Players can also upload a Super Mario Bros.-style "world" of four courses for players to complete. In addition, between created courses and downloaded courses the player can store up to 120 courses, while the game comes with over 60 sample courses, and the 10-Mario Challenge, in which players are given ten lives to clear eight sample courses. Also available is the 100-Mario Challenge, in which players must clear a set of player-created courses within 100 lives.
