You can’t make this stage in Super Mario Maker.
In honor of this week’s release of Nintendo Wii U Mario creation tool, last week I tasked our image-manipulation experts to demonstrate what sort of Mario we could make without a $60 game. They certainly rose to the occasion.
And while the brave and valorous Hundredgunner takes home top honors this week with his nostalgia-inducing visit to the old Pipes screensaver, those recieving slightly lesser honors are sights to see as well.
Plumbing The Depths
sillstaw — for the hauntingly named “Mario is Missing.”

cecil_banon — mainly because I like the name Cecil.

Vulcan Assassin — for trying.
DistractedObserver — because I said so.
Mrichston — for this shining example.
Ozimov — for terrible reality.
99Typhoons — for confusing me.
Toolsoldier — for making me wonder why the bit under her butt is dirty.

Bloodsense — because this is pretty much Super Mario Bros. 3.

Tune in later today, when I figure out some other sort of Photoshop torture to inflict.
