There are only 178 levels left to overcome in ‘Super Mario Maker’… and one month to achieve it

In the world of video games, a race against time is taking place that you may not be aware of, but it involves Mario, Luigi, a bunch of gamers, and millions of levels to complete before Nintendo decides to shut down the online servers on Wii U forever. This is the countdown to the end of Super Mario Maker and the feat of a few determined individuals to finish everything before the deadline on April 8th.

A month of non-stop gaming

The idea of Team 0% is that not a single level remains unbeaten. That one hundred percent of all aberrations created by users are completed in one way or another. And so far things are going pretty well: ‘Super Mario Maker’ is 99.68% complete. In other words, in February 2023 there were 41,113 levels left unfinished, and today the number has dropped to 150. And it keeps decreasing every day. And if they continue at a rate of 5 levels per day, they will reach one hundred percent.

Every cloud has a silver lining: Nintendo has decided to end support for Wii U, yes, but it has given wings to try to finish an intentionally endless game. And, indeed, if you see the levels that are left to finish, they are an absolute lysergic madness in which you are not even able to distinguish where you have to walk or how it is possible to move forward. Only suitable for people capable of replaying something a million times to improve pixel by pixel. Spartans of the controllers. Heroes without a cape.
