One of the Wii U’s best games is going portable: Nintendo has revealed that Super Mario Maker is coming to the Nintendo 3DS. The game allows players to build their own 2D Super Mario levels, and much like the Wii U version, the new 3DS edition will let players drag and drop obstacles, enemies, and items into their levels using the touchscreen. The portable version appears to be largely the same, but with a bigger focus on connecting locally; for instance, you’ll be able to share levels with your friends over a local wireless connection. Super Mario Maker will be hitting the 3DS on December 2nd.
