/vr/ - Retro Games

>>7874308
Yeah. It's an annoying game, though. Easily the worst Super Mario game in the main series.

>>7874323
nah that'd be mario 64. literally ruined franchise going forward

I can

>>7874336
>let me just write the most contrarian take possible

What are some official ways to play Mario Bros 2 for NES(not SNES) in the Americas?

PS: don't bother recommending emulators, I like to actually beat my games for real.

>>7874308
As a super player, I can. I haven't beat it 8 times though, so I don't know if I've truly beaten it. Only beat D-4 on All-Stars.

Now That's What I Call Mario Madness

>>7874308
Yes, but it takes me a day or two of dedication.

>>7874489
>I haven't beat it 8 times though, so I don't know if I've truly beaten it
What did they mean by this?

>>7874704
If you beat the game eight times, you unlock secret worlds A, B, C, and D. It's kinda retarded.

>>7874308
It's anti-fun

>>7874736
hahaha one last "fuck you" to anyone actually playing this game.

>>7874308
Aspect Ratiooooo

>>7874421
Import a famicom you dumbfuck

>>7874421
Aren't there famicom to NES adapters? Other than that you can get a flash cart

>>7874421
SMB Deluxe but you are missing A-D I believe

>>7874845
It's a disk system game

>>7874421
It used to be available on the Wii Virtual Console.

>>7874845
>flash cart
That's not beating it for real, sorry.

>>7875424
You will never play this game due to your autism. See >>7874830

>>7874736
Does one have to do that all in one session, consecutively?

>Even more retarded labyrinth puzzles
I'll pass. Who the fuck thought it's a good idea?

>>7874336
It did, but it also brought innovations to 3D.

>>7875534
>Who the fuck thought it's a good idea?
Probably the programmers who thought that the masters of SMB, the ones who can unlock Super Player Mode* (a mode hidden to apparently everyone but myself and possibly Nintendo at this time) in it and more would welcome another even more insane challenge.

*To do this, you simply would not believe it, but suffice to say that it demands near perfection.

>>7874323
It's not very good as a stand alone title, but it is fine as an expansion to the first game. Assuming that the player had a mastery of the first title before playing the sequel was common for PC games like Wizardy but Nintendo learned that style of design does not really work for games with a more mass market appeal.

>>7874421
Buy a Famicom and a copy of the game. I'd say to just grab it on the VC, but that's emulation and you apparently don't want that.

>>7874421
Sorry if you're not Japanese you can't really beat it for real.

>>7875638
:D I like this answer.

>>7874308
No

>>7874736
Jesus Christ

>>7875935
Yeah, I'm great at games, but I ain't doing that.
That's what Game Genie is for.

>>7875541
>a mode hidden to apparently everyone but myself and possibly Nintendo at this time

>>7876078
That's what I said and it's a fact. Nintendo, along with SEGA, have a habit of forgetting hidden aspects of their games, or the people that did care retired or died.

>>7874421
theres an apk for that. 64-in-1. it looks like a NES with 2 controllers. scan for adware and viruses

>>7876104
if something like that was in the game, we would know about it. super mario bros has been thoroughly turned inside out. every single line of code has been analyzed.

>>7876509
>something like that was in the game, we would know about it
You do, I just told you. A lot of stuff gets lost and forgotten.

>super mario bros has been thoroughly turned inside out. every single line of code has been analyzed.
Not really.

>>7876513
I mean... I already know asking this is going to accomplish nothing, but... how exactly would one unlock this special mode?

>>7876519
You have to be able to do a backwards jump through a pipe at the end of the procedure, can't take shortcuts or warps, must go through the entire game without dying or getting hit and then you have to get into the first warp zone via the wall jump through the wall, then the last pipe, if the room is not loaded fully, will lead to the title screen with a new option below the 2nd player option called "Super Player Mode".
I've given precise directions, but since I was laughed at every time, I'm not sharing the full thing anymore.

So get good at wall jumps, then ask here about it some other time, or maybe I'll get a bug up my ass and do it myself, but it's been so long it'd take me a week at least of dedication. Believe it or not, I've told you the truth.

>>7876529
Does this require a specific revision or regional version of the game?

>>7876532
>Does this require a specific revision or regional version of the game?
No. It works on all original copies, so the Japanese, American, and European copies of SMB all feature the mode, even the SMB/Duck Hunt and SMB/Duck Hunt/World Class Track Meet all contain it.
Now as far as All-Stars, I have no idea. Although I doubt it.

>>7874336
here's your (you) you attention starved faggot

>>7876540
There's actually a very easy way to check. All of the text in the game is uncompressed, so with a hex editor, you can see all of it.
Predictably, the string "SUPER PLAYER MODE" doesn't exist in the game's data. While the word "PLAYER" is in the game's data, neither "SUPER" or "MODE" are anywhere in to be found.

>>7875518
No, it saves at least and warps count.

>>7876552
>There's actually a very easy way to check. All of the text in the game is uncompressed, so with a hex editor, you can see all of it.
For some reason apparently not, or there's some reason why it's obscured.

>Predictably, the string "SUPER PLAYER MODE" doesn't exist in the game's data.
It's in there. What are you going to say when either I or someone else puts out a video proving it, then it becomes a big deal, what then? Will you stop being such a doubting Thomas?
Video games were half made with secrets in mind, so it's quiet amusing that you doubt this, but the techno-priests are convincing, I know, but it in there and lots more.

>>7876557
At least that's something, but unless there's naked Peach's and stuff I don't think I'd try it soon.

>>7876560
Well, if you ever do record it, be sure to record the inputs as well so it can be recreated by others instead of relying on just footage. After all, rom hacking is quite easy to do.
No one will be able to deny it if they can watch it unfold before their eyes on an unmodified copy of the game.

>>7876570
I'll be recording the TV, the console, me, and everything else, then the cart itself will be inspected by a third party.


>No one will be able to deny it if they can watch it unfold before their eyes on an unmodified copy of the game.
It'll be great. There's other games with hidden content that worth seeing too and some of it involves aspects of the NES you'd not expect. For one, some tricks cannot be done without a perfectly working original NES it has to do with its capacitors that, believe it or not, can change certain values inside the carts.

>>7876576
Got a Youtube channel link or something?

>>7876590
Not yet, working on a costume. Yeah I'll be one of those idiots. lol

>>7876607
You've got conviction and style. I'm rooting for you, even if I don't believe you...yet

>>7874323
This. The level design is much more constrained towards singular approaches due to the methods they used towards making the game more difficult, contains more bad design unknowable elements by orders of magnitude ("harmful" invisible blocks made to fuck Mario over originated here, they overused repeating maze layouts that you would only figure out by repetition).

It's a shitty romhack before shitty romhacks, not a proper sequel and very little of its difficulty is honest difficulty - if you can beat SMB1 your losses in SMB2 most likely won't be execution failures on your part but unpredicted or invisible layout fuckery instead. Doki Doki Panic was a dramatically better product.

Why is a single larper kid getting this much attention? Does anyone actually believe there's some hidden game mode in a game that's been completely disassembled for years now?

>>7876560
>It's in there.
No, it isn't. You weird fucking liar.
https://gist.github.com/1wErt3r/4048722

>>7878356
You doubters are ALL going to say that you really knew it all along too, but you didn't upload in time.
lol

>>7878367
Playing pretend on the internet is weird. Stop doing it.

>>7878379
lol Doubting Thomas's of the video game world have always amused me.

>>7878405
People playing pretend on the internet, especially when talking about subjects that are objectively disprovable, have always amused me. Continue larping.

>>7878519
All of you will say that you did it too, just never got around to uploading.
To be fair, this was one of the more obscure secrets for SMB, so not as many learned of it back in the day anyway and even then the pool of guys who could do it was small. I might be the last.

>>7878367
Everyone who's ever made a game for 6502 has practiced using SMB as a base for decades. It's the most well-understood game to ever exist that isn't already open-source, there isn't a single point of code in it that isn't fully known presently. You should have attempted this bait with something more obscure. This is like claiming to have found a hidden rule in soccer, like you thought thousands of people haven't meticulously analyzed soccer before.

>>7878531
>It's the most well-understood game to ever exist
Not anymore apparently.

>there isn't a single point of code in it that isn't fully known
LOL So a lot of egg on the faces of the experts if forthcoming. I'm sure they'll be gracious and honest.

>>7878529
The problem with your secret is that it doesn't exist outside of your imagination. The kiddos might believe this bullshit, but anyone who's done any romhacking or examination of source code (which has already been posted in this thread, funnily enough) knows it just isn't true.

I get that you want to become the next assembly language larper or babbage cabbage pants (or whatever that child rapist tripfag used to call himself), I just don't understand why.

>>7878535
Go ahead and point out this hidden game mode in the source. It's this post right here.
>>7878356

>>7878536
It's on every old SMB cart, the old official multi-carts too.
Obviously the method for accounting for all of the data is flawed. This is unsurprising since the game was designed to hide the mode.

>>7878541
They were not able to detect it, period.
The "experts" are not experts.

>>7878547
That's because it isn't there.

>>7876529
Imagine lieing on the internet

>>7878548
In their instruments, right, but inside the ROM, it's there.
If you just stop worshiping the false experts you might learn something. At any rate, when I prove it, you will call it a fake no matter how it's presented, then another will do it and you'll say they're faking too.
The pool of guys who can do it is so small that when I release the video proof of it that almost no one else will be able to do it, or even believe the method.

This is all true.

>>7878551
You can't even spell, but people should take your brilliant closed mind on this.

>>7878556
>guys, there is a super secret hidden game mode in the original smb

It does.
>>7878562

Never said that, but just that they may have forgotten it.


>>no one but this one kid on 4chan with an overactive imagination have ever actually done it or even heard of it

Far from being a kid, and it might be possible that I'll be the first one to do it in decades.

You've misrepresented most of what I said, either due to stupidity or malice or both.
You are a sad dude, dude.

>>7878568
>It does.
Cool, then show us.

>>7878570
I can't with their shitty hardware or methods. You'll have to watch the video like everyone else and then, if you have the time and patience, you can try to pull of off on your own SMB cart.
I've weaned myself off most games and am getting ready to tackle SMB, but it won't be fun. People think it's an easy game, but not getting to SPM.
Last time I did it I was a kid and I did it three or four times total (at different times, not consecutively) and then got sick of it.

>>7878578
>I can't with their shitty hardware or methods.
We're not talking about hardware or "methods" grandpa. We're talking about pointing out the lines of relevant code for your super secret game mode in the source. That's it. The fact that you can't isn't surprising.

>>7878583

Go fuck yourself. OK?
(Keep a look out for the video.)

>>7878584
Ok, champ. Good luck with your larp.

>>7878606
This is pretty cool. You're a bored kid larping as a luddite boomer with a "that kid" tier story. If you're not the assembly language larper, I'd be impressed.

>>7878612
It really was an error on the board's part. Why would I quote you or the other anon and then choose to reply to my own post?

>>7878613
I don't know. Why would you pretend to be some boomer talking about secret game modes on a website for anime nerds?

>>7878617
This is a retro video game board on the Internet and you're all flustered that someone from Generation X knows more about a video game that your favorite experts don't.

>>7878619
I just think that this is one of the more clever trolls I've seen on this board is all. If I keep you talking, I'm hoping you'll tell me more secrets about all my favorite video games that I'm not old enough to remember.

>>7878621
>I just think that this is one of the more clever trolls I've seen on this board is all

Look, I understand, but this is not a troll. It's clear that only a crystal-clear HD video of the entire thing is acceptable, but I have a feeling that no one will accept it unless it's done live, which I am willing to do.

What more can you ask for? I'm not Billy Mitchell so I won't be making excuses as to why I can't do it;etc.

>>7878624
Yeah, I'm bored with this now. You've managed to play out the "technologically challenged boomer with incredulous stories" character in a single thread. I was hoping to see more of this in the coming weeks, but it's already fizzled out.

>>7878624
how recently have you accomplished unlocking this game mode?

and now he's responding to his own posts again lel

>>7878637
I last pulled it off was decades ago. Last time I tried I got tired and fizzled out, that was a couple years ago, but I made some mistakes, that is, I was using an emulator and I won't be doing that anymore, just on an original toaster NES and cart.

>>7878634
>fizzled out
>>7878641
>fizzled out
He's like a bot, only less intelligent.

>>7878645
The dumb always call the smart, dumb.

>>7878641
You very well may have only unlocked this mode in a dream. Remembering dreams as reality does happen on occasion.

>>7878653
No, there was also a website online five or six years ago that confirmed that it wasn't dreamt. I copied the information down before it went offline, but it repeated what I already knew and never forgot, but just hadn't thought of for decades.
There were some comments and out of 25 or so, there were a few that claimed to remember.

>>7878664
What I don't get is why you're doing this with such a KNOWN game inside-and-out. You could have genuinely fooled people with this amount of dedication if it was like, NES Golf or something.

>>7878698
What I don't understand is how they're missing the data because I am telling the truth.

>>7878704
What does Super Player Mode do? How does the game play differently when it's selected?

>>7878698
>You could have genuinely fooled people with this amount of dedication if it was like, NES Golf or something.
No, he really couldn't have. Too many people here into rom hacks, homebrewing, and speedrunning/TASing for this bullshit to fly here with any game.

It makes it much harder than the hard mode that's unlocked after beating the game, making that look like child's play. It's a super hard mode.

>>7878881
Since you're back, please answer >>7878738
I'm really curious, so I would appreciate it.

>>7878885
The option is between the 2 player option and the top score.

>>7878896
Super Player Mode? No it isn't. It's only available using the second controller.

This is the funniest thread I've read in a while.

>>7878901
Shut up.
The option is between the top score and the 2nd player option, but you must unlock it first.

>>7878918
Except it's not, kiddo. It's only available using the second controller.

>>7878924
What is your brain malfunction? Can you fucking read?

>>7878886
>It makes it much harder than the hard mode that's unlocked after beating the game, making that look like child's play. It's a super hard mode.

>>7878962
OK but what changes does it make to the game to make it harder? HOW is it harder?

>>7878986
Using the power of imagination, any video game can be as hard as you want it to be.

>>7878986
More enemies and they move a lot faster. Right from the start at 1-1 it sends a column of enemies that can easily kill you off.

>>7878645
the sky is indigo and changes from blue to purple depending on CRT colour saturation

>>7878994
So you're saying it changes the level data.
Do you believe this is procedural or entirely new data?

>>7879040
I don't know, probably the former. They found a way to obscure data in NES games and SMB isn't the only one.
You know how the warp screen will load normally after doing the trick to get to minus 1? It has specifically to do with that mechanic.

>>7879054
>You know how the warp screen will load normally after doing the trick to get to minus 1?
*What I meant by that is, if you try to get into minus 1 and walk too far in that room, the room becomes normal again and instead of:
>-1 5 -1
it becomes
>4 3 2
again

That mechanic in the game is what is hiding Super Player Mode.

>>7879062
The Minus World glitch is different in different regions of the game. You should be able to see the issue here.

>>7879131
Just speaking to my personal knowledge, which is specifically the US version, but noted.

>>7879131
>The Minus World glitch
Also that is not a glitch. That's for another video.

>>7874336
it's not mario 64's fault that nintendo decided not to build off that amazing template and instead make dumb shit like galaxy

>>7879143
>dumb shit like galaxy
Haven't played SMG, so what makes it dumb?

>>7879149
It's not. That anon is full of shit.

>>7879157
I just want their reasoning. To me it looks like Mario 64 on steroids, is all.

>>7879168
It's nothing like SM64.
It's a 3D Mario game. The comparisons can end there.
Galaxy is a linear game like the older Mario games and should be judged with that in mind.

>>7879175
Sounds interesting, who knows if I'll like it, but chances are I'll never know exactly since retro stuff takes my time.

Nooo, we received it late and Japan got it, I heard about it as a child and was upset about not having it, please understand that by these rules it MUST be good! It's challenging and that is a game's only quality, you'd never understaaand!

no

What's the best way to get disks without paying up the ass? Especially since some disks are overwritten.

Emulators don't count for beating a game.

It was released officially on the Wii ackshuylee

Yes, it is my favorite Mario game and I genuinely consider it a masterpiece. It has like FOUR points that are unfair for first time players, the rest is fair but people get buttblasted about being shit and blame the game. And those unfair moments are all next to very weird, standout level design which acts as a signpost to repeat players about the hazard coming up, making it fair for repeat playthroughs. People dont catch this nuance cause they suck and hear the game’s reputation and just write it off, instead of treating it like an arcade game designed for repeat playthroughs to see how far you get.

People hear shit that is flatout wrong and repeat it. “You have to beat the game eight times in a row without game overs to see all the worlds” No you dont. The game saves how many times you beat the game, each time a star is added to the title. This persists after turning the console on/off, it fucking saves it. You beat it eight times total, you can access the secret worlds. You can get game overs in between. It doesnt have to be in a row, or in one sitting.

You can access world 9 even if you get game overs. The condition is just not using warps. Any time you get a game over, a continue screen lets you restart from X-1 with X being whatever world you died in. It’s no more punishing than the first game, and this time you dont even need a cheatcode to continue.

People dont know any of this, they dont even know the game can SAVE, because they barely play it. Or the play it like a fag with emulator savestates and never touch it after “””beating””” the game once. I repeat, people who say this shit DONT EVEN KNOW THE GAME CAN SAVE YOUR CLEARS. They dont know the game at all.

If people gave this game even half the thought they give for games like Wizardry or Dark Souls or even fucking Cuphead, they’d see it for the expertly, fairly designed game it is. It’s fucking fun.

It also gets nowhere near enough credit for giving Luigi his own physics.

>>7884723
luigi kinda handles like absolute ass, but hes the only reason i ever get anywhere in this game

>>7884691
non-official emulators don't count.

>>7884673
yea lemme just go fire up my fucking famicom disk system right quick

fucking faggot

Luigi handles great. Faster and better jumper but slippery traction. Him and Mario are better at different parts.

This is going to sound crazy. But I swear, when I was ten years old. I was at my cousins house. He had a Commodore 64 with a floppy drive and a bunch of games. One of the games he had was Super Mario Bros 2 remade for the C64. I remember it, because it was the first time I saw "poison mushrooms" obstacle. But I could never find any existence of it. Also, the NES my parents got me and the rest of my family for Christmas had a Nintendo Power add in it, with a screenshot of Super Mario Bros 2. I completed the version on the Game Boy Color first. Then I completed the Lost levels on the SNES. But never did complete the original Famicom Disk System game.

I don't get why people get mad at this. Nothing is more retro than these retarded stories about secret unlockable over the top game modes.

>>7884864
Considering how slippery Mario already is in the first game I can't imagine using a fucking soap to beat the 2nd game

>>7877906
I think what pisses me off the most about it are the mandatory super trampoline. I still can't figure out how to do them properly every time

>>7874736
And there's a 9th world if you beat it with no continues. IIRC the All-Star versions just outright gives you A, B, C and D. I've seen a speedrunner do world 9 and it's actually quite disappointing

>>7875551
I wish we would have gotten official Nintendo "rom hacks" of games during the VC era. How could it would've been to have Kirby Super Star with remixed levels and maybe a new thing or two. But it probably would've been too costly to have to yank out the old shit and people that can program for it, or outright not worth it to port it just for that

>>7879820
This isn't even believable considering Miyamoto and Tezuka? designed levels on paper. They'd make 32 extra levels and nobody knows about it? Pfft
On top of considering the Famicom Basic + Tennis trick that was extremely well known in Japan AND probably extensively trying every possible level slots, you'd think someone would have discovered these extra levels by now

>>7884397
Mercari or yahoo auctions

>>7886737
Are they really mandatory tho? Currently trying to beat it, I'm stuck in world 6 and I don't remember any mandatory one

>>7886967
Currently playing it on my G&W ver.
4-1 has a gap big enough that you have to trigger the trampoline properly or die

>>7886959
Don't spoonfeed that kind of shit moron

Yes, but using continues.
I think I can get to World 6 without continuing.

>>7886747
World 9 is a sort of joke/homage to the -1 glitch world in smb1

>>7887350
Ohhh, the extremely strange and below average level design you find in it makes sense now

>>7886198
Learn to control your momentum better. Learn how to do a jump that would overshoot a bit, pull back in the air at the right time, and land without much horizontal momentum.

The point of this game is mastery of the first’s mechanics. If you cant do this then the game isnt for you.

>>7886967
>>7886981
Just wait til you get to 7-3.

>>7886737
Don't you just press A when it goes down, and you get it?

>>7887067
Sorry I revealed some kind of super obscure secret website. Those who still haven't bought every shit they want in fucking 2021 deserve to pay up the ass. Seems like you are one of them
