Adding Super Mario Maker 2 Levels to MFGG.net - GeneralGuy - 07-14-2019

Alright everyone. I have a big suggestion to make here. As you all know, Super Mario Maker 2 was just released for the Nintendo Switch on June 28th, 2019 and is extremely popular across the Internet right now. I've seen thousands of videos, pictures and commentary of people playing levels, along with sharing them as well on many highly profilic websites such as YouTube, reddit, GameFAQs/GameSpot Twitch, Twitter, etc.
Mario Fan Games Galaxy was founded 18 years ago on the idea and goal of creating your own Mario levels. I feel that Super Mario Maker 2 makes that dream a reality, and with more ease than ever before. Back in 2005, a game like Super Mario Maker 2 would have been the apex of our wildest dreams and fantasies. I know it was mine. It captures the wondrous essence and and creative spirit of Mario fangaming perfectly.
I believe the stars have aligned and it's a perfect opportunity for MFGG to take advantage of that by adding Super Mario Maker 2 (and 1!) levels to the Main Site.
There would be varying Categories to search for a level based on:
Game:
- Super Mario Maker 2 (Nintendo Switch)
- Super Mario Maker 1 (Wii U, 3DS?)
Type of Game:
- Super Mario Bros.
- Super Mario Bros. 3
- Super Mario World
- New Super Mario Bros. U
- Super Mario 3D World* (*SMM2 only)
Difficulty:
- Very Easy
- Easy
- Normal
- Hard
- Kaizo
- Very Short
- Short
- Normal
- Long
- Very Long
I feel that adding SMM2 and SMM levels to the main site would generate in A LOT of traffic and activity to the main site and forums, and would be the exact same audience that we've always been trying to get. In order for MFGG to stay relevant, we absolutely need to embrace Nintendo's official solution to creating your own Mario levels. @VinnyVideo, a few of the other staff members and I have been discussing this at length and I would like to hear your guys brainstorming and suggestions.

It may take a while for me to implement such features to the main site. In addition to that, not all of us has Switch and/or subscribed to online features so QC can be more challenging. Perhaps we can get some hands with that. But in reality, I am just taking a shot in the dark. I'm willing to hear what others think.
Edit: At the moment there's a dedicated channel at the official MFGG Discord where users can share their MM levels.

If it can be implemented practically it'd be really cool to see. It'd be a smart way to take advantage of MM2 instead of worrying about it hurting the interest in fan games. Does the game not already handle any problematic material? I assumed you'd be able to report levels that somehow manage to be NSFW or bad in some way, though I suppose even if you could we probably would want the levels reviewed anyway before they are uploaded.
Still though, I think it's a smart idea and can lead to an increase in traffic. But it's easy for me to say since I won't be the one implementing it.

Maybe... I might just post the level ID of one of my 2 levels "Flight of the Chain Chomp" a glitch level
