Title: Best Mario Hack?
Post by ludditesoft on 03. Jan 2008 at 14:32

So I understand that best is a matter of taste, but when I say best, I mean most acclaimed for greatness and originality. From what I've read, "Mario Adventure" seems like a prime candidate, but it can't be put to cart :'( What would be the next best to this game that can be put to cart? I gather that Outlands is the best for the Zelda series and maybe Metroid X for the Metroid series? I have yet to see any for Kirby except, "Kirby's Nuts," which I haven't tried yet.

Why can't Mario Adventure be put to cart?

I'm no programmer, but I've been told there's something about the ROM that does not allow it to be put to cart. It's a damn shame, I played it on my emu and it would be great to see in a NES cart!

Recently, I was thoroughly impressed with Extra Mario Bros.

I grabbed the IPS patch, but haven't played it yet.

Oh yeah and Mario Adventure is really cool, I think it's problem had to do with the way the cart hardware (MMC3's scanline counter) was used. Why it works in emulators though, I'm not sure.

Extra Mario Bros is one, Mario Adventure is another. :D I also like any sort of extremly hard Mario hack. It's like a new challenge for me.
