7 Comments

Nintendo has partnered with animation studio Aardman for a Shaun the Sheep event course that is coming to Wii U game Super Mario Maker on June 3.

This unexpected partnership was announced today by Nintendo Europe. A video has also been released; check it out below.

As you can see, the course lets you play as Shaun the sheep, while there are also the appropriate sound effects. Everyone who completes the course will receive a Shaun the Sheep costume.

Shaun the Sheep is a spinoff from Aardman's Wallace and Gromit series. There has been a Shaun the Sheep British TV series as well as a feature-length movie in 2015.

This isn't the first time Super Mario Maker has welcomed a course made by a famous company. Southwest Airlines, Facebook, and Mercedes-Benz have all created levels for the game.

In other recent news about Super Mario Maker, a man used the game to propose to his girlfriend--and she said yes.

GameSpot's Super Mario Maker review scored the game a 9/10.

"The game won't necessarily turn you into the next Shigeru Miyamoto, but you can almost feel a little bit of that magic rubbing off every time you upload a new creation," reviewer Justin Haywald said.
