XNA - Starting a platformer

I have followed the MSDN Platformer tutorial and made a variant with it.

However, I want to make a Platformer like the Super Mario games. Although I prefer to make a game with a basic level, instead of a side scrolling level.

I've read certain documents about using Tile grid to create my levels. Are there also beginner/full tutorials available to create a start?

Basically need help with the first steps of setting up a level.

I have not used XNA for about 6-7 months, but back when I was 'playing' with it, I was working on Windows Phone 7 games and learned a lot from this blog over here. His tile engine worked pretty good for me. Although it looks like it is for RPG-like games, take a closer look at the examples, there is a 2D platformer example there too.

You must read this, otherwise nothing will make sense :)
