Yoshi's NSMB Hack

[Yushee52]

It's a New Super Mario Bros. level hack I've been making for awhile. It was recently updated, too. All levels up to 2-4 are more or less completed.

The current patch contains all of World 1 complete with almost half of world 2 done. It also contains more coins and 1-Up rewards, as they were a tad lacking. Now, I start listing information on the levels.

World 1-1
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins

Notes:
• Pretty basic level. Not much to note here.

World 1-2
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins
• Locate Secret Exit.

Notes:
• Camera gets a tad wonky at the beginning, but isn't too bad. --I think I fixed this. Thanks, whoever helped me.
• I'm gonna change some parts of this to make it not have two pipes leading to the Secret Exit. --I think this is done, too. Maybe.

World 1-3
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins

Notes:
• I might change this one a bit in a future release, mostly to make the pipe have meaning at the end. --forget that, endless pipe entering FTW!
• Added some tilting mushrooms and added more 1-Up rewards.

World 1-Tower
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins
• Locate Secret Exit.

Notes:
• The Secret Exit was moved and takes use of an extra zone.
• You can go through the bottom part of the stone blocks at the 2nd Star Coin. I dunno how to fix this, so please don't try hitting them from below. --Added invisible solid blocks to stop anyone from doing that.

World 1-4
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins
• Go through the Mini Alternate Route.

Notes:
• This one's like a Pipe Maze, but not as long or confusing.
• Gonna make the Mini Alternate Route mandatory for collecting all Star Coins next patch. --Done.

World 1-5
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins

Notes:
• Be careful of those logs! Some might fall off and pull a cheap KO. --At request of beta tester, they're replaced with Donut Lifts.

World 1-A
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins
• Obtain all normal coins.
• Stomp all Mini Goombas.

Notes:
• This is a more heavily changed level. You'll see why if you get there.
• Ignore the ? Switch in Area 3. It's just there.

World 1-Castle
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins

Notes:
• The first half of the level is a bit of a puzzle. "When it seems you can't go further, try going back for anything that may have changed."
• When you catch the 2nd Star Coin, you'll hear a timer. There's nothing involving a time limit, so just ignore it. --I dunno if I hear it anymore... O.o
• Added some Fire Bars to get in the way.

World 2-1
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins

Notes:
• Updated and probably less of a blatant level edit.
• Made the Mini Alternate Route more significant.

World 2-2
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins

Notes:
• Mostly an underground level now.
• The Midway Point may be too far into the level. I can't really put it in Area 2 here and there don't seem to be many other fitting places.

World 2-3
Challenges:
• Collect 3 Star Coins
• Find the Secret Exit

Notes:
• Absolutely overworld level with an alternate route.
• Contains a Secret Exit, but I don't think I did anything to 2-A... Nope.

World 2-4
Challenges:
• Koopa Jump all Blue Koopas in one jump.

Notes:
• Uncompletable as it is the end of demo.

Download

Up to 2-4

The download is a .ppf patch file. You must patch a COMPLETELY UNMODIFIED NSMB (U) ROM with the .ppf file. I recommend using "PPF-O-Matic" to do this. As for getting the appropriate ROM... Well, you'll have to use Google for that.

Sorry, no .nmp patch. My editor keeps shoveling out bugged ones...

While I do not play mario, as a fellow modder, I applaud and thank you for all your hard work. Keep at it my friend.

Sounds like you've done quite a good job. Sadly, my computer cannot emulate Wii games.

Great job!

O.o First off, New Super Mario Bros. Wii has very low system requirements. Second, my hack is for the DS NSMB, silly.

Shows how much I know.

Has this been tested on an actual DS?

[Deleted]

Unless I'm wrong, all mods for this game will work on a real DS, mods for the Wii version will work on the Wii too.

I've had people talk about using it on their R4's and such, so I assume yes. But I don't "support" it as I don't have an R4.

[Sesu Reinoruzu]

Tested it, it works perfectly.
Only played the first stage but it was fun, this is very promising!
