C0Lists now can be edited like normal objects types in the main window.Now it’s possible to edit properties for more objects at the same time.While reproducible in other OSes using the Mono Framework, The 4th Dimension uses specific WPF components that can’t be reproduced outside of the Windows environment. It is a Windows-based tool (sorry Mac and Linux users) because it uses Microsoft’s. You can use it to edit the game and create your own levels and them play them on it. The 4th Dimension is a tool created by developer exelix11 for the 3DS game Super Mario 3D Land. I would give it a look if you want to see what this tool is capable of. There are a bunch of videos in – what I assume – is his YouTube channel showing off the results of playing around with this. Exelix11‘s tool in its current state allows you to do a lot already. To me, that’s the essence of the fun in a homebrew scene: playing around and tinkering with stuff. This would also help strengthen the already very strong communities especially if it uses Miiverse in a smart way.This tool is still in development stages and this new update to it only brings it version 0.9, but it is already in a state where you can more than use it to play around. This and a fairly priced DLC strategy in regards to content and quality would be the way to go for Nintendo in my opinion since their policy in general has been to release one game of a certain series per console at max.
Plus, anything coming from a known developer such as Nintendo will likely sell based on name & trust in the software quality. It all depends on the pricing model and how fair it is perceived. First of all, you need the base game to create maps or items for it and secondly, you can find ways to monetize user created content while rewarding creators. The sales of future products or DLC being affected is an argument I don't agree with. One thing is sure though, like gabe newell said, companies can compete with each other at releasing content, but they have no chance of doing so with their userbase once it reaches a certain critical mass and you give them the tools to create. I can't remember where it was exactly though. I'm pretty sure I remember somebody from Nintendo talking about the possibility of a level editor in the next Super Mario Bros.
