Super Mario Maker 2 Has Had a “Good Start”, Says Nintendo
Super Mario Maker 2 launched late last month with great review scores and the game’s community has been making tons of unique levels (about 2 million levels so far, in fact). According to Nintendo, the game had great initial sales as well.
“During the first quarter of this period (April through June 2019), for Nintendo Switch, Super Mario Maker 2 released in June and has
gotten off to a good start with 2.42 million units sold,” a recent Nintendo financial report read. For the sake of comparison, the first Super Mario Maker game sold 4 million units on the Wii U and reportedly managed to reach 2.34 million units sold on the 3DS.

“Like the previous game, Maker 2 isn’t right for absolutely everyone,” the review’s author noted. “If you’re hoping for another polished set of escapades with Mario and pals, you’ve got some time to wait. For all its trappings, this is still a tool kit. It may be more robust and feature complete than the last iteration, but the impetus is still in the hands of the player to find that glittering core of compulsive engagement.”
