8-bit Bowser Jr. takes after his dad and is totally creepy

Smile for the camera

Nintendo is bringing Mario Maker to select Best Buy stores next week ahead of the game’s release on Wii U this September. By playing the demo, you’ll receive a neat little 30th Anniversary Super Mario Bros. button (while supplies last). But what about those buttons up there?

Members of My Best Buy can score that seven-button set by pre-ordering two select Wii U or 3DS titles. The applicable games will be revealed on June 17 but, for now, get a load of 8-bit Bowser Jr.

I’m particularly fond of Mario’s Spiky hat, which will also presumably be featured in Mario Maker and may or may not just be cosmetic. Assuming it’s a new power-up, what do you think it does?
