I got a copy from Chief a while back. It was fun, and reminded me of Stunts.

Remember Stunts? That was cool. TMU is like Stunts 200X.

Didn't we use to have several of those on the older boards?

Edit: yeah, we did back on version 1.61 and 1.8 according to those version's profile pages. AIM and ICQ.

What I think is that "if it isn't broken, don't fix it" is a very ironic thing to say when talking about the first gen games.

It's buggy as hell and the type advantage table is broken. Need I continue?

Still, they're great games in their own right. Just count the number of cheap imitations

Posted by Bulbapedia
Psychic-type Pokémon are at the center of a balance issue in the Generation I games. The issue arose from the lack of an effective countermeasure against Psychic-types caused by the absence of any powerful Bug-type moves (at the time the only elemental weaknesses of Psychic-types). Additionally, Psychic-types were not affected by Ghost-type moves in Generation I, causing further imbalance, although there were no powerful damaging moves that were of the Ghost-type anyway, except for Night Shade, which does fixed damage. Additionally, the only Ghost-type Pokémon (the Gastly evolution line) were all part Poison, which is weak to Psychic moves.

The issue was rectified in later generations with the addition of more powerful Ghost and Bug-type moves, pure Ghost-type Pokémon, the addition of the Steel-type (which are resistant to Psychic moves) and the Dark-type (which are both immune to Psychic moves and powerful against Psychic Pokémon themselves).

As opposed to using the program "IrfanView" to do the same.

Or, you know, copypaste the URLs. I've seen your pics, Jay. I'm impressed and proud.

Chalk up one more for crazy UI designs!

We seriously need a SMW editor that doesn't break every rule in the book.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I must go huddle in the corner as I experience a WordPerfect flashback.

Ah, that game.

It's amazing how well you can read your current situation in those cards.

As I undestand it, the GBA renders the level tilebased, and not like the old object based way as in SMW or SMB3. And that the e-level format is substationally different of the used SMB3 format in the same game, right?

All systems (NES, SNES, GBA, DS...) are tilemap based. The Mario games (except for the SML series) store their levels in object lists, which are then "prerendered" into a 16x16 pixels-per-tile tilemap. The relevant, visible part of the tilemap is then rendered into the 8x8 pixels-per-tile VRAM tilemap.

This lets you place a "strip of four coins" object, which is then mapped into four coin tiles. Picking up a coin removes it from the tilemap, which would be difficult, if not impossible to do if it was an object list from start to finish.

As for level format, the idea (before the whole e-Reader subplot appeared) was to replace the object list with an LZ-compressed tilemap, which is then simply copied into the game's working area (where the "prerender" step above happens). This lets you make complex designs without object limitations. The only object list in a level would be the enemy data.

Roadmap
1) ~~Replace level format~~
2) Write editor for new level format
3) Make demo hack
4) Add new items
5) Make new demo hack
6) ?????
7) Its-a me, Mario!
