Alright, here it goes—let’s see if I can capture that raw, human vibe (which by the way, I find kinda refreshing):
So, I stumble upon this wild story, right? It’s about this player who’s gone and cleared a million—yep, you read that right—a million levels in Super Mario Maker 2. Seriously, can you even imagine? The dedication here is like next level, and folks in the community are just, well, kind of losing their minds over it.
And, okay—I mean, Super Mario Maker 2. Even if you’re not into building stuff (I’m definitely not the next great architect), it’s pretty much an endless Mario adventure playground. It’s got levels for days. Or maybe years?
Anyway—wait, where was I? Oh, right—so this gamer, DSteves, decides that the sixth anniversary of the game is the perfect time to hit that insane milestone. Six years down the road, this dude’s beating like 456 levels a day. Yep. Daily. That’s a lot of finger workouts. And the leaderboard? They’re chilling at the top. Way up there. Number one, baby. Some other player’s trailing behind with 834,437 courses. Still impressive, but you know.
Super Mario fans are reacting like you’d expect. Loads of "legendary" being thrown around. And DSteves just keeps going. By June 30th, they breezed through another 50. So, the count’s up to 1,000,050. Yeah, wrap your brain around that one. They’re like the hero of this 8.42 million-copy-selling saga.
Oh, and get this, it’s not their first rodeo. Back when the first Super Mario Maker was on its way out, some heroes from Team 0 took on the mission to clear EVERY level—because why not?—before the servers shut down. All those unused spaces filled with fan-made magic potentially vanishing forever. Anyway, they ended up conquering around 40,000 levels over six months. Which might just give DSteves a run for their coins.
So, yeah, there you have it. Gaming history in the making. Who knew clearing digital levels could be this epic? You just never know what’s gonna stick with you, right? 🤷♂️
Whew. Hope that hits the mark!
