Good god, I hate that show.

Those jackoff assholes are not Italian!

I feel ashamed for my people as a whole that these douchebags are making money off of being douchebags.

No offense to you of course, metal militia. If you like it, more power to you. I despise it. But I do love Taco Bell, so at least we have that! :D

Didn't feel like checking to see if there was a thread on this or not, so I'll just post here

Apparently not released yet, people are making a hack of New SMB Wii to be like the original SMB. The video in the link says it all.

that's how the Super Mario All-Stars: Limited Edition for Wii "should" look like! :?

That looks pretty cool.

How would they distribute that? Is this a homebrew load from the sd card sort of thing?

Google-ing "studebacker" in firefox 4 beta made it freeze on multiple occasions. Now Chrome is my default browser.

That makes me wonder how many of them post regularly.

Every forum has a bunch of members who sign up, post a couple of times, then disappear forever.

Then there's the people who were regulars years back, but haven't come back in ages for one reason or another.

Imagine that? I'd just be happy if Nintendo made another NSMB for the Wii. They can recycle the same engine with the same power ups and what not. Just making new one with all new levels, maybe even more than 9 worlds. That would please me a lot.

It's just a hack of New SMB Wii. You would download the ISO and play it any normal way you would play a Wii "backup" game.

I wanted to find out more info, there's a link under that video for a WIISO forum thread but you need to be a member to view the thread. I found a few more videos of it on YouTube, just search for NOSMBW. They're calling this hack "New Old Super Mario Bros Wii" which isn't too bad.

I'd be pleased if this hack becomes 100% complete with no bugs, but wouldn't it be awesome if they'd also remake SMB 2 and 3 using NSMB? I remember some one posting about a SMB3 hack of the DS NSMB, but it didn't change the music, just the levels.

If you click 'members' up at the top you'll see there are plenty of people that posted less than 10 times.
