Fun Super Mario Bros. hacks

[treismac]

I was looking for some recommendations for some kickass Super Mario Bros. hacks. Any suggestions? If you suggest something, say why it is a worthwhile hack, too? Is it fun? Bizarre? Challenging?

Thanks!

romhacking.net has tons of them. You have patch the roms yourself though.

Let me recommend the Super Mario Bros. Special hack based on the Hudson Soft version of the game.

Extra Mario Bros. is the most interesting one I've seen. It completely reworks the game into something of a Metroid-like with continuous open worlds, powerups, save points etc.

Most emulators support ips patches directly, provided the file name matches that of the ROM.

I'm going to be writing a piece on a great number of SMB hacks in the nearish future. For now, check out this list I wrote.

Don't forget my "awesome" SMW hack (I also made a SMB hack, but it isn't 100% finished). You haven't lived until you have played it, beaten it, found Kolorado Koopa's treasure, found the 10 super secret levels, and found the secret Adults Only* hidden area.

* - Just a bunch of cuss words made of blocks with a pink sensual background. It is really hard to find, so no young'uns can access it. Actually the .ips floating around may have had this area removed. I don't remember. It is on my repro cart, so you'll have to come over to see it, or I just might bring it to the next CGE if I can attend.
