Another thing about SMM1 I bet most people forget. You didn't even get most of the stuff to make levels with until either time passed or you did some things. So the first levels all had to be very simple, they had no choice.

The last creator was probably someone spam uploading to try and get the last level ever uploaded

the first level being an SMB1 level and the last being a NSMB level seems quite fitting.

The very first level ever uploaded to Super Mario Maker having the word "OOOF" in its code is such a meme

Even with the servers shutting down I wish there was still a way to play all the levels, like an archive of some sort. History should be preserved. A lot of these levels took time and effort to make. When the servers shut down does that mean they'll just be erased for good?

There is no MM1 and these commenters write like dolts.

Some background information as well, data ids for levels are a number and the way the game numerically and in chronological order stores levels in the game based on release date. Fortunately its very easy to find this number from the level code itself by taking the last 12 digits of the course id and converting it to base 10. This is why you see the four 0's every single level on the second set of four digits because we never got far enough to make it to 0001. (The first four digits are just a checksum) Now with that said, you can derive the two endpoint data ids presented in this video, 1,008,512 and 69,559,301. From the data I found for SMM1, there exists 10,610,412 levels spanning those 69,559,301-1,008,512 = 68,550,789 data ids. That's a lot of levels that were removed by the player or deleted by Nintendo! In contrast SMM2 started at 3,000,004 for it's data id and is currently around 47,277,891 ish during this present minute I'm making this post. My database for SMM2 contains over 32 million levels in it which makes me wonder why SMM1's level distribution is a lot less dense than SMM2. A theory I have could be that it was too easy to copy levels in SMM1 since if you downloaded any level the first prompt it gives you is "would you like to edit it?" So a lot of near duplicates got removed. What do you guys think?

I agree with your take on the last level. The name is basically just "A" so they probably just wanted the last.

Last level makes total sense. I remember when vidme was shutting down people couldn't upload videos for like the last week of operation, but if you had unlisted videos if they were made public it was like they were newly uploaded, and they had a thing where you could see the most recently uploaded videos on the entire site. A lot of us with unlisted videos were trying to be "the last video uploaded."

Good vid. I was expecting hot trash or uninspired stuff for the first level, and that's exactly what I got. What I wasn't expecting was that the final level would just be a single-screen level with no inspiration behind it at all.

It's crazy that we've come this far. Playing and designing levels in MM1 was a joy when I was a kid. I can't believe it's all going away...

Nintendo's best bet for a MM3 would be to officially endorse certain makers and players, with the "hopes" that you might be able to become one. That would encourage GOOD levels, AND a plethora of levels.

Now that’s what I was expecting.

Did I expect the first and last levels of MM1 to be awful? The first, I definitely expected. Don't know if you remember, but MM1 was kind of crippled early on: not only were there a lot of things you couldn't do at all (checkpoints, etc,) there were a lot of things you couldn't do _right away,_ basic features of the game that you had to play for several days to unlock. Most noteworthy: it took several days, over a week IIRC, before you could create warp pipes and subworlds, meaning that among other things, you were not able to open MM1 and immediately create a faithful reproduction of World 1-1. Did I think the first ever level of MM1 would be trash? Yes! The creator had no other choice.
