Would have to be Recca Summer Carnival '92, Return of the Mario Bros., and Donald Land right now.

All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros.

What's the Mario one all about?

What's the Mario one all about?

All Night Nippon is a radio station in Japan. They raffled off copies of SMB with a dark background, anbd sprites changed to radio personalities.

I own the game.

[vealchop]

Cool! I wonder how many of those we made/given out?

The emulated version that you can get on most ROM sites seems to be the wrong one or just a hack that replaces the background. I know the actual version replaces the toadstool at the end of each bowser level with a charicature of one of the radio DJs, the dumped ROM doesn't have this.

Does anyone know of an actual dump of this game or am I just doing something wrong in-game?

[Doc]

No, it's an obviosly bad hack. The real version has the sprites for the people you save as kind of creepy...

[JC]

I meant what's Return of the Mario Bros.

But no problem. I didn't know lick about the other one either. It sounds kind of neat. I don't know that'd it be much more than a collector's item. And as you all know, I buy to game, not to collect. Anything different about the gameplay in All Night Nippon?

[Doc]

Nothing really different on the gameplay.

Return of the Mario Bros. is a FDS Mario Bros. game with a storyline and updated graphics.

How many were made? What'd you pay for it, JL?

I don't know what it's like on the emulatiors, but I found these screenshots:

The only way I've found to really tell if its the actual version is by beating 1-4. If the usual toadstool character is waiting to be rescued after you beat bowser then its not the real version.

Correct.

I payed $30 for it. No artwork, but very much worth it for the unusual-ness of the game.

[JC]

There's one on eBay for over $70. It doesn't come but with the disk and clear plastic sleeve. Are you sure it came with more, the "artwork"?

EDIT: HERE

Oh that's neat. Wonder when one will pop up on eBay.
