But while Nintendo fans got to say goodbye to their game, the death of LittleBigPlanet came as a sudden shock.
The Super Mario Maker community rallied together to beat every single level uploaded to the game before the servers shut down earlier this month, and while the devs at Nintendo weren't initially aware of that effort, they now think it's pretty cool.
