I think people asking for more features are missing the point of Mario Maker. As a game maker you are always limited by your tools in some way. That's where the creativity comes into play. Milking the most out of your tools... it's rewarding. Minecraft taught me that. They added more, and to me it felt like less. I liked figuring out innovative ways to accomplish design challenges.
Why not enjoy what you have? Nintendo is giving us a peak into the Chocolate Factory. Let's not be the spoiled kids sent off by the oompa loompas, but appreciate the intricate simplicity of Nintendo magic being offered.
My theory on the whole 9 day fiasco is that it's supposed to mirror their development process on a microscopic scale. It's a shame they went back on their intial design philosophy, even though I appreciate that they did--as I for one understand the process and don't need my hand held. As I'm sure they realized others did not need such limitations either.
I'm sure DLC will come and add in some missing features, but for now... Why not just enjoy the tools you have? Seem plenty robust to me. If you are worried about limited replay value... perhaps you just haven't brainstormed enough.
Not saying any of you are wrong, and I absolutely understand your gripes and disappointment, but I for one am getting my childhood dream fulfilled. As far as I'm concerned, my heart is soaring on a Lakitu cloud.
Can you believe this is the first retail Wii U game we're getting in the Americas since May when Splatoon launched? Dat drought...

Not me! Looks like Amazon sends out codes a midnight pacific time:
"Available on September 11, 2015 at 12:00 AM (US/Pacific)"
Soo I got a notification more items would unlock tomorrow, not seeing any new ones, thought the patch removed that limitation?
I just got that too, hopefully they just didn't change the message.

So stoked for SMM, but Wii U definitely has to complement one or two other platforms in the house at least for that reason

So is there no section for levels made by people on your friend's list?
Some days ago a friend of mine, MdM, came up with this "picture" that he planned to use on some tshirts. I found it very funny and I asked him the permission to contact daydream, that I knew was working on the Super Mario Maker OT.
Daydream (who made a fab job with the OP!) told me that it wasn't in line with the style he was working on, but to be sure to let other Gaffers see it. And so... here we are: Anyone Can Make It by MdM (I won't put here any direct link to the stores that are hosting this design, but feel free to send me a PM if you want to know more 'bout it)
Just as a friendly reminder, these are the items, enemies, & stage themes that are NOT included in Super Mario Maker:

He'll be ok and adjust, we all will
I'm on 1.01 and its telling me the next tools won't unlock until saturday...
I'm disconnecting my internet when I bring the game home tomorrow and am going to try to stick with the system clock trick.
Turns out I am way worse at making levels than I imagined, and I have no good ideas!
