I just found two secret parameters.

To get two extra items, namely ghost and star, append &opt=6358D569C9 to the link. Or use $('body').addClass('secret') in console.

To replace Mario with Toad (only in SMB), append &opt=7F93F702E6.

By using the latter opt, and adding secret manually, you can have both.

To make the image, click the robot. To select other resolutions go to the main page and click the monitor or smartphone.

No 1920x1200. :(

My favorite, and sadly, mostly forgotten resolution. Or should I say aspect ratio.

I had two monitors that were x1200 but sadly they both stopped working for mysterious reasons. It was great for online poker as it allowed a perfect number of tables at a decent size (Stars, FTP). In the end I played only 4 on each as that was my sweetspot for paying attention to all details but for massgrinding 12 on each was doable (iirc, I could never play more than 8x2 without going insane).

Standard x1080 didn't work well at all especially back in the day when the tables weren't resizable :D

I made one. http://mariomaker-wp.nintendo.co.jp/shareImages/cd6a8db28ca6...

Ah.. reminds me of this Mr Robot Apple game - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Robot_and_His_Robot_Factor... where i can design my own maps..

If you use the mushroom you can not only make Mario larger, but other objects too.

All this time I was trying to figure out how to run it but then spotted the "Wallpaper Maker" in the title. Sad layfe :(

This is surprisingly fun! I just wish they had made the page available in some non-Japanese language (even French would do).

My kind of playground!

Any thoughts as to why Mario is not moveable?

I'm able to move him (using Chrome)

I'm able to move him (using Firefox)

Works in Safari as well

Works in IE7 (if I physically move my monitor around)

Works on an original iPhone (if I print it out and glue it to the screen)

Reddit is leaking again :) I wonder whether HN is doomed to become reddit as more time passes.

Reddit itself was not like Reddit is now less than a decade ago. It itself was more like HN, although clearly not the same.

slashdot - then Digg - then reddit - then hackernews - evolution of getting good interesting stories with smart people commenting about them.
