History VideoGame / SuperMarioMaker2

* DropTheHammer: The ''Super Mario 3D World'' theme has another unique powerup in the form of the Super Hammer, which turns your character into Builder form. Pressing the dash button has them whip out a hammer and swing it in front of them, which works as an attack as well as for breaking Rock Blocks and Thwomps.

* PromotedToPlayable: While Mario was playable in the first ''Super Mario Maker'' and the Builder Outfit was available as a costume in ''Odyssey'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', this is the first game with the Builder form, which is distinctly different from normal Mario as it comes with a [[DropTheHammer hammer]] and can create crates to use as platforms or to block things.

* AscendedFanon: The Heavy Fire Bros, which previously appeared in fanmade games such as New Super Mario Bros. Omega and Super Mario Evolution, make their official Mario debut in this game and are created when giving Fire Bros. a Super Mushroom in the ''3D World'' game style.

''Super Mario Maker 2'' was announced during an installment of ''WebVideo/NintendoDirect'' in February 2019 and was released on June 28th of the same year. An update was added on December 5, 2019, adding new course parts, a Ninji {{Speedrun}} mode, and the Master Sword powerup for the ''Super Mario Bros.'' theme, which turns Mario into [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Link]] and gives him a Zelda-inspired moveset. As a last hoorah, the final update, added April 22, 2020, introduced a ton of powerups, the Koopalings as bosses, Cursed Keys for the ''Super Mario Bros. 1'' style that summon Phanto from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2'', Mechakoopas from ''Super Mario World'', and finally a World Maker, where players can create their own world maps based on ''Super Mario World''.

** Version 3.0.0 saw the return of Phanto from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2'', appearing when the new Cursed Key is picked up.

** Also [[EnforcedTrope enforced]] before you can upload a course online - you first have to clear it once from the start to the goal without dying (and subsequently from each checkpoint to the goal) to confirm that the course can actually be cleared.

* AntAssualt: The Ant Troopers, as well as the Horned Ant Troopers and Big Ant Troopers make their return, while wings and/or parachutes can be given to all 3 Koopa Troop Minions, or one can make Horned Ant Troopers big with a Super Mushroom.

** The Big Ant Troopers, Cat Banzai Bills, Cat Bullet Bills, Hop-Chops, Skipsqueaks, Spiny Skipsqueaks, and Snow Pokies make their return after being absent since ''3D World'', with the last one also appearing in the 4 previous game styles' ice levels.

* AwesomeButImpractical: The Koopa Troopa Car. You get to stomp a Koopa Troopa and drive around in its car! The problems are that you can't use any other power-ups while in it, it goes to a complete halt while turning, its jump is very low, and that it can be smashed apart if it collides with anything three times. It's usually faster to just run on foot.

* BigCreepyCrawlies: The game adds the Stingby and the Ant Trooper (as well as the Horned variant) to the existing list of insectile enemies from the first game. Both are exclusive to the ''Super Mario 3D World'' game style, and retain their respective behaviors (Stingbies rush at the player's character upon proximity, and the Ant Troopers will walk around solid terrain). As for the existing insect mooks, Wiggler gains the unique trait of swimming in the air during nighttime levels.

** After 31 years since the release of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'', with it getting nothing but minor cameos in a couple of Spin-Off games, the Angry Sun ''finally'' makes a return in this game as a regular enemy.

* DropTheHammer: The ''Super Mario 3D World'' theme has another unique powerup in the form of the Super Hammer, which turns your character into Builder form. Pressing the dash button has them whip out a hammer and swing it in front of them, which works as an attack as well as for breaking Rock Blocks.

* OffModel: Ludwig's ''Super Mario World'' sprite, as seen [[https://postimg.cc/TLFMQXGT here]], depicts him with Morton's face rather than his actual face.

* StylisticSuck: The Story Mode course Super Mario Bros. W1-1? is an altered version of World 1-1 from ''Super Mario Bros.'' with random enemies spammed everywhere, massive blind jumps, and a troll sub-area that takes you backward in the course in place of the shortcut.

* PowerupLetdown: Any powerup can become this in the hands of a careless (or mischievous) maker. For example, having a Fire Flower would make puzzles involving a lot of shell kicking more annoying, as if the shell in question is not a Buzzy Beetle shell, you may accidentally hit a shell with a fireball and screw up the puzzle, and being in any powered-up form can make jumps in cramped spaces harder since the player is twice as tall. More lethally, when attempting to GoombaStomp off enemies across a BottomlessPit, a Super Star would cause the player to fall through the enemies instead, into the pit below.

* AutomaticLevel: There's not a level of this kind in Story Mode unlike in the first game. However, Nintendo is well-aware of the popularity of these levels, so the search function has a tag that allows the player to limit the pool of levels to those of this type when searching online.
