"Super Mario Bros (JU) (PRG 0)", according to GoodNES.

Yeah, I was without net access for a bit over a year (October 2002 to February 2004, with a few short periods in between where I did have access). I'm surprised someone still remembers Wall o' Cannons, though... |

Or both.
Agreed. This was probably pretty simple to do (change initial fireball speeds, how the sprite acts, and some graphics), but it's still way awesome.  |

If this hack wasn't so cool I would complain about how unpractical it is... but I can't... it's just too freaking sweet! |

4matsy I've heard of you.  Your'e part of CG if I'm not mistaken right? This hammer hack you found is awsome, I knocked Bowser out in 1 hit!  I'm into smb1 hacking myself.  I hope to see you around soon, nice meetin ya's. 
Karadur Use the Title Screen version of the SMB ROM, that's the one I used & the hack works fine. |

Maybe it's just the ROM I'm using, but I can't get it to work  I hit the block in the first level that has a mushroom in it, and the game locks up shortly after. I'm using FCEUXD, Lunar IPS for the patch, but I'm not sure what version of the ROM I've got. I do know that it must be the wrong version though
I would read the readme.txt in the zip file, but due to the fact that it must be written in Japanese, I'm unable to. The main question I have is, what version of the ROM did you use? |

Hey there. Been quite a while since I posted here (under the nick WhooHooD'oh, before everything got wiped ).
Those (few) that remember me know that I used to be really into Super Mario Bros. 1 hacking. Though not as much these days (real life interfering), I still keep an eye out for hacks of old NES games, especially since knowledge of SMB1 and similar titles is growing. Especially the weird Japanese hacks...
Case in point: last night, I was browsing the SMB Software site, and found that they have an interesting new patch up. One that does what you've always dreamed of: replaces the fire flowers in SMB1 with the hammer suit from SMB3.
The suit powerup itself bounces like a star, as in SMB3.
The hammers themselves are almost exactly the same as in SMB3; they'll kill Buzzy Beetles and Podoboos, and even Bowser goes down in one or two hits. Their horizontal speed is faster, though, so they're harder to control/aim.
You don't get fire protection when ducking, but that's not much of a problem anyway since none of the enemies actually use the little fireballs in this game anyway...
To get the patch, go to "Patch Download" in the left frame on SMB Software's site, then it's the second link from the bottom (you'll know it when you hover over it, it links to HammerMario.zip).
Have fun. |
