The Super Mario World DX level editor has surfaced! 👍 archive.org/details/super-mario-world-dx-level-editor
Nice 👍
Yay!
For some reason i expected to see this in the pinned comment after i saw that part and scrolled down
9:14 "Sorry nothing" Hahaha, I like this more than original
Version for Apple II looks neat, especially Mario's big nose
Nice video, you clearly put in effort
Hey Gruz, did you ever play Mari0? A.k.a. Mario with a Portal gun. That one is pretty bonkers and might be worth an episode. Thanks for the video!
Yeah that's a fun one
Hey Jim yeah no I tried it when it first came out but never made a video about it. Not a bad idea
It's amazing.
@@itsgruz not only is it well made, it's also open source with lots of mods
@@itsgruz someone already said it, but play asaleans entities!
I'm really into the bootleg community, so I actually know a lot of these. Great to see these games seeing love!
I've recently made a hobby of getting my hands on any and all Mario game romhacks, and I am interested in what you know
@@dtheengineer2746 don’t lie.
This loser in comments calling u a liar,that’s why he’s asking what u know he doesn’t believe ya.
I remember playing many fangames on Newgrounds and MFGG, one recurring quirk was that nobody was able to get the Koopas to work properly (usually stomping on them once kills theme)
I also remember "Super Masao" - a Java Mario clone with many custom levels online (the original is on BlueMaxima Flashpoint). The controls are not as good as real Mario which adds to the challenge.
I know one called "Maridows 64"
What about Wario VS. Windows, that's the only good one I remember
Thanks for presenting my Super Mario Keen mod. :D
Wait. You made that?
@@peej10do91 In 2010, yup.
I actually do have that Super Mario World on the NES one, both versions actually. There is actually a patch someone made for the full game version that improves the graphics making them much better _and_ closer to the original, AND fixes the physics including taking away the slowing in the air thing and instead preserving your momentum, and fixing the jump height so it's actually accurate (5 blocks high when running) and not ridiculously high, thus not only making the genie code irrelevant but making the game MUCH more playable and actually pretty darn solid, I ended up playing through the whole game with that patch. The patch's physics fix is much better than the genie code's one, and overall with the patch it's some pretty darn good fun.
Do you have a link to that patch?
The only thing they haven’t fixed is the horrible audio, but I’m sure someone can do that. I’m thinking they do something similar to the improvement patch for Somari.
The music from the Apple II Mario is taken from the Commodore 64 game "Thing on a Spring".
Thank you ! That was driving me crazy - Recognised it instantly just couldn't place it !

Hello you
You missed the super mario world clone for the MSX2 system.
Came here to say this. Also released as Coil Cop in some regions.
1:00 I downloaded the physics patched version of this and its a pretty decent game. Still not as well thought out/put together as an offically licensed game, but really not that far off and they did some things I hadnt seen done before in NES games. Patched version still doesnt feel like Mario but its totally playable.
Hey, what's your favorite Mario game?
Super Mario World
Yeah... that ones a classic. I remember playing on my SNES.
SNES?
14:17 5 year old me on my wii trying to stomp on the first goomba from Super Mario Bros but not knowing how to jump.
I played one in the late 80's on a convenience store arcade machine. I don't remember the name, but you were a character on a skateboard. But the stages were laid out just like Super Mario.
Thank you for your amazing content, Gruz! Keep up the great work!
Good video, I've never heard about most of these games.
BTW, the Apple IIGS Mario clone took the music from a Commodore 64 game called Thing on A Spring, it's considered one of the better soundtracks on the system for some reason, although I was never a big fan of it.
Hah I was just about to mention that! Good catch!
I love the original version of Thing on a Spring, but I can totally understand how other people may not really enjoy it. ^^
Oh man, a chill gruz video is just what I needed tonight, thanks man.
everybody with the Mario world on nes: physics are bad
me: HOW DID THEY MAKE YOSHI RIDABLE ON THE NES, IT TOOK MIYAMOTO WAY TO LONG TO PROGRAM THAT
your content randomly showed up in my feed and i cant stop watching!!!
Don't know how this channel doesn't have more subs.
gruz has been around for ages but does like 0 marketing, all natural growth bay bee
I'm surprised you didn't mention the ear grating music in super Mario world NES. And how did they include yoshi when Nintendo themselves failed to do this!?
thank you for making this video so I don't have to suffer through the jankey physics while still enjoying something new in the mario universe :)
I remember a skateboard Mario Bros arcade machine at a fast food place I used to go to in the late 80's, early 90's.
Great video! Thx for talking about the Hummer Team pirate game - although I'm a little surprised you didn't mention the nightmarish music!
I had NES Super Mario World volume 1 on mutli-game catridge... It was quite well known.
9:27 OK, the way Mario stretches to become Super here is really cool. Nice touch.
Thanks for a great video… I would love to see this combined with your Game Genie skills, a “Mario Hack/ Gamehenie Codes” video… keep up the good work
Commander Keen! That takes me back…thanks for the reminiscing
2:51 this is so GRUZ! i laughed when I saw the Game Genie logo.
You deserve way more subscribers. I love your channel.
Great video as always Gruz 👍
Hey Gruz Finally a new video and by the way when are you collaborating with Super Mayhem he ask you that
We tried to work something out but I'm so busy. He was very respectful and I dig that. 👍
@@itsgruz gotcha
@@itsgruz pls can you play Super Mario Maker World Engine 3.0.0 and 3.0.1
The music in that Apple IIGS game is a remix of the C64 tune Thing on a Spring, original by Rob Hubbard for Gremlin Graphics.
Amazing video as always, killgruz! :) These were very interesting to learn about!
You should check out the bootleg Sega Genesis version of Super Mario Bros.!
I've seen half of these actually, lol. Have always been interested in bootlegs. Thanks for this video!
Aye bro, love the channel. Very unique. I liked killgruz more but the algorithm is LORD so I don't blame you. :)
3:48 I don't think it's ridiculous in comparison. Considering this is Super Mario World, a Super NES title on the original NES the graphics look mindblowingly similar it's just insane. Really good job.
Very cool, another fantastic video Gruz
9:14
The "SORRY NOTHING" really caught me off guard 😭
This video has been in my watch history for a while. About time I finally watched it all the way through. I don't see very good reason to play any of these except maybe that last one, but it is a cool novelty to see them all. I guess maybe back when they first came out there was good reason to play them then because in some cases these games were only available on the original console that they came out on when you go far back enough
i have this memory of playing an NES version of Super Mario World in a store at some point. i was playing Donut Plains 2 and there was Yoshi, but the graphics were more SMB1-like. i'm 85% sure it was just a dream i had.
Huh… that’s an interesting dream!
You left out quite a bit about Super Boy. There were actually 4 Super Boy games, each one better than the last. Super Boy 4 actually has the proper scrolling, an original character (Super Boy 3 did as well), and some kind of original story (Super Boy 4 uses a LOT of Super Mario World assets). Apparently Super Boy 4 also re-uses a lot of sound effects and music from Super Boy 3 which is... eh...
It's interesting that you can ride Yoshi, I'm pretty sure I remember Miyamoto saying that was a feat that was previously impossible prior to the SNES (but then again, it's a rom AND NES carts advanced pretty significantly by the end of it's life cycle).
I watch this video everytime I'm sick, great video
Sittin on the couch eating Rainbow Goldfish (I love Rainbow Goldfish)
I had heard about the Super Mario World bootleg and Super Boy, but not any of these others; this was nuts!
In the late 90s I went to a tiny and *super* janky roller rink somewhere by Placerville, CA that had a bootleg Mario Bros Vs which featured Mario or Luigi on skateboards
There are only 72 levels in Super Mario World, with 96 exits (including the secret exits)
“I wanna play a Super Mario game that’s not as good as the original”
Introducing…
Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels.
I actually played the BBS Super Mario World game when I was younger and wanted to get into Mario games. I never thought I'd see this version again
I’ve play all of these. Even the one on the Sega genesis, and a N64 controller that plugged into a TV that I got from a World Trade Center. lol I wish I still had that controller lol. It even had Sanic
I've heard of Super Mario World (NES) before watching. And I Actually played it on an emulator.
I’m finding it really hard to believe that super Mario world was running on actual Famicom hardware, there is a surprising amount of colors you wouldn’t normally see on an nes
For the most part, yes, most of the general public somewhere around 90% won't know cause they won't care unless they purchased/stumbled upon it, I'll go as far as to say this is an Inner City thing. Clones were very commonplace in NYC/Bootleg City, and for the most part were used to Con a lot of people/tourist before closing the store for "reasons" all during the 90's in Chinatown.
The bb software mario world dx was made in div games studio, which was later ported to windows, web and other platforms. I may have a copy of that editor code somewhere!
Love those Apple II Mario sprites!
Glad I found this channel.
2:07 Im suprised they were able to do this, I was of the belief ' they ' werent able to make a NES version of this game cos they couldnt make a rideable yoshi. Also quite impressive that like the original, the game scrolls both left and right......I know other NES games have done this but for a pirate game its......impressive
The original super Mario world didn't have 96 levels, it had 96 exits. Some of the stages had more than one exit. Depending on which exit you took determined where you would go after that.
I have an MSX computer. Specifically a Panasonic FS-A1GT inherited from my late uncle's "estate". I've been trying to make some use out of it since I acquired it.
Are we gonna ignore the 3 eyed sun's in the sky's of most of the levels of "Super mario world" on the nes
Apparantly that's the developers logo
@@FurbyMan the developer is the J.Y. company
Truthfully, the MSX series of PCS did have some nice pixel art games, Dragon Slayer 2: Xanadu and Dragon slayer: Drasale Family (Legacy of the wizard in the US / EUR on the NES is the same game) had great art.
Was really hoping to see a mention of the 2019 C64 port of SMB1. If you haven't seen it, it will absolutely blow your mind. A perfect 1:1 reproduction of the NES SMB1 on the Commodore 64. But these ones in this video were still cool! (... update 2 days later: don't mind me, YT just showed me that you've got a whole video on it. neat. lol. Wish I found that when I checked. doh)
You should totally look at the MSX-2 port of Super Mario World, it’s unfinished currently but has a good chunk of it complete.
These look really interesting, I'd never heard of any of them!
You reminded me of the Dorkly video where Mario goes nuts and heads into the back room at Bowsers and the Toad starts saying his lines and Mario cuts his head off. 😂😂
The Commodore 64 version of super mario bros is really really good.
I had heard of a couple of these. I had no idea the Keen mod was even a thing!
There was a version of mario i played a long time ago that was made for msdos by some independent guy, i remember it being all wonky and different colored a bit but it was really detailed.
There can be only one!
Great video!
Check out the Super Mario Bros for the Commodore 64. Very good, even excellent recreation imo
Edit: just checked that you already made a video about it 2 years ago. Nice!
If you ever do another one of these I recommend covering Bros for the Atari 800. It's a weird lil bootleg that deserves more attention.
Excellent video
i actually remember having super mario world deluxe as a small kid in like 2008, and managed to redownload it recently. however, i must have gotten an older demo or something, because i didnt have any sound and i found a few gamebreaking bugs as well. nevertheless, it's sad that it had to be cancelled, it had potential
I've played the first one before.. actually pretty fun
I played that Super Mario World demake for the Famicom (with the physics fixing Game Genie code) and its pretty good, but the ghost house levels are infuriating and I just had to use rewinding/save states constantly just to make it past them. The Hummer Team demakes of Earthworm Jim 1 and 2 are also not bad, but they're missing a lot of the levels. Also Super Boy had three other sequels released, with Super Boy 4 being the best one of them all.
hummer team never demaked ewj2 as far as i know, only the first one, there does exist ewj2 demakes for the nes but they're not by hummer team (one of them is by a company named super game), perhaps you played that one?
@@TolerableDruid6 Looking back at it, I played the Shin-Shin version which had better controls than the Super Game version. But the graphics took a backturn compared to Super Game's port, especially the color pallet.
@@Parkinski27 i find that the super game version has a greater variety in levels as well (but oddly both ports stop at udderly abducted)
@@TolerableDruid6 There is a title hack version of the Shin-Shin port has an unfinished version of See Jim Run, Run Jim Run as its final level. Also there exists a reprint that replaces Granny Chair with Lorenzen's Soil.
@@Parkinski27 IIRC the see jim run level is present in all versions, but even in the title hack version where you can actually play it without modding, it's incomplete and doesn't have any graphics, same for lorenzen's soil except that one seems to be complete so i don't know why they made most releases skip over the level
I remember I had a mario clone game on my Apple iPad it was very similar to the first super Mario bros game it had a version of goombas and the turtles but they weren’t them and instead of you being mario you were a biker each level had 4 stages like mario you fight a bowser like monster at the end of each but he has a different motorcycle each time and the guy says every time this is a nice bike but it’s not mine until he gets his own motorcycle back
I'm late but maybe someone could help: I played a PC version in which you start in a warp zone, the next screen you had a power up screen where you could buy a shroom or a flower with lives(maybe it was reverse? I'm not sure), and then the 3rd screen was... well... it had a great chasm that you just could not jump over and it also had some kind of sci-fi human containers. Once in the actuall game I can recall only one element: a great lava chasm in the castle that you could not jump over. There was also some sort of green power up that was neither shroom nor flower. Don't know how I know about it's existance but it was there. Any1 knows anything about this version?
you mean Virtual Mario?
@@sf-human Well, googling it gives me nothing so I can't say if that's it or not.
Good thing Mario Maker 1 and 2 exists~ You can still get your creative fix!
1:02
This looks good
Great Giana Sisters on the c64 also worth looking at
Hey Gruz! You should check out real time corruptor. I think you would like it, because it can corrupt nes, snes, nintendo 64, etc.. games! It's really cool, and I belive you will enjoy it! :D
Hey gruz,have you heard of Mario forever? It was game made the Buziol games,a polish game developer (most likely a pirate). It captures the EXACT Way a Nintendo made Mario game should be like,it's avaliable on Windows. I personally played the v2.16,but v4.4 is most played on TH-cam. So maybe play the every single copy of the game that is available online (I recommend using a secondary computer or a VM for safety reasons)
8:40
That game is really good
And I'm working on Mario's CONSTRUCTed World, a Mario remake made with Construct 3
Hey G i know it's probably due to life and all but Its been over two months and wish you would come back and upload more frequently, the amount of game genie codes on a single game alone not counting others is perfect for limitless content and episodes. Anyway i hope you are doing well and looking forward to seeing you someday, PEACE ✌️
Super Mario World DX looks like some flash game.
Speaking of a flash game, there's like a lot of Mario flash games, some are bad and some are good.
I noticed on the Commander Keen mod that the falling platforms didn't actually fall... and that the [?] blocks didn't do anything when you tried bumping them. And Mario never got big either... that's an odd mod.
"If you're able to accept this game for what it is and not directly compare this to the official Super Nintendo version, I think you'd be surprised with how fun this one can be."
Greatest words of wisdom by Gruz. 😇
Gruz, you are so pure and constructive compared to many other gamers, and I hope all of the toxic communities learn to follow in your footsteps! 😂
Nah plugging a game genie into a fake Mario and changing shit is super cool and oldschool and I dig it lol. You would be like a superhero if you had shown this to my friends in elementary school
There are a few more Mario clones that I know of, which I'll mention here.
First off is the rest of the Super Boy series. The reason why Super Boy only has four worlds is because it's merely the first half of the game, the second half is actually in it's sequel Super Boy II. It is basically for Super Boy what the Lost Levels is for Super Mario Bros., a nearly identical sequel with different levels, though this one does finish off the Super Boy story. However, Zemina removed Sorry Nothing for this game. There's also Super Boy 3 and Super Boy 4, which are based on Super Mario World, and while Super Boy 3 still has Mario, Zemina seemingly got concerned somewhere down the line and did some edits to make Super Boy look less like Mario for Super Boy 4.
The next one is a homebrew port for the Commodore 64. It got taken down, but a ROM/Disc Image shouldn't be too hard to find.
There's also New Super Mario Land, a homebrew port of Super Mario Land in the style of New Super Mario Bros.
Lastly is Super Mario DX for the Game Boy Advance, a bootleg game by Sintax. It plays terribly and rips it's assets off from Super Mario Advance 2. However, since this one is based on another game and similar games exist for other franchises, It's probably cheating. If it is, I'd instead mention Super Mario Bros 3 Special for the Game Boy, made by Yong Yong/Makon Soft. It's even worse.
Running the Commander Keen mod without the patcher:
"A A A
NO NO NO"
In Super Mario World, there's 72 levels
96 is the number of exits
I also played super Mario world dx long time ago. It was ok but missed a lot of important features. Bummer man.
that kuribo run fast immediately o.O
What if there was arduino uno Nintendo system game controller that works worth a TV made made with a receiver, ultrasonic sensors, and the gaming controller is wireless. It works with games, including run. Rescue squad, a new game called equation Mario, Mario, kart and more.
I know they weren't made back in the day, but you really need to look into the C64 and Intellivision homebrews. They are both fantastic.
Me * hears the intro *
My body "time to dance"
Not forgetting the fabulous C64 Hombrew of SMB.
I have a cartridge with Super Mario World for Nes, although it is the incomplete version that concludes the adventure in the fourth castle
What about Super Mario Bros+ on C64 (re-skin of Giana Sisters). Had a lot of fun with that one!
oh my god i had an famiclone before and it had that super mario world clone!
I love that you complain about the one game having the same music loop over and over and over again but honestly that's my main complaint with the _original_ game, as well. :P
