In it, you will control Mario in single-player mode and “Luigi” will be used in multiplayer mode. The game will bring two characters for you to use and overcome attractive levels including Mario and Luigi. Maybe the good ol' NES seems more powerful as we all might think and this ROM Hack shows that bits isn't everything.Join Super Mario Bros., you will enjoy many fascinating challenges and rescue the beautiful princess. Consoles like the TurboGrafX or the Master System would have been pulverized and seen no light against the NES for some more years! So despite all my guesses I must admit that Corpse Grinder did a fantastic work here and if this would run on native hardware, just imagine Nintendo would actually have made usage of these features.

Also a special palette is used to achieve a more different-coloured spriteset which can definitely be seen as equal to one of the SNES. Some games use pseudo background scrolling to simulate a slower-scrolling background behind the actual Sprite plane where the action actually happens.

Plus also the NES is not supporting an independent background pane. I guess maybe it's the amount of simultaneous sprites that this hack is handling that's why also the emulator had to be modified. As I saw a longplay video of this hack, I think this is not the main problem why this ROM would not run on native hardware. Typically a NES can handle 64 (8x8 pixel) sprites at once which is quite a lot since Mario in large state would consist of 8 sprites, an enemy usually of 4 sprites and large enemies usually of 16 sprites. I wonder what had to be modified in the Emulator to get thios running and what stops a regular NES console from running it.Īs the ROM size itself is 256KB which seems to be no problem at all for NES consoles (largest official ROM I saw was Kirby's Adventure with 512KB size! And even 1MB roms seem to run natively on a NES) I wonder what the limitation might be.
