“Classics from the 2010s” made my bones slowly crumble from age.
Made me crumble even more 😭
Bro how are you still alive if you remember the 2010s💀
@@rawtrout3402 the 2010s are a time period between 2010-2019, and it ended with 2020. if you weren't alive in the 2010s then that means you are less than 4 years old.
had Mario crossover been released during the NES days, it would have sold like crazy! the Atari clone is really impressive.
Its crazy what people with no payment incentive can do on these consoles just for fun
Yep dragon quest + is better than the lame switch remake that didn't even animate the monsters (let alone ff pixel remasters overhauled the ff games with boost, which improved ff2 vastly for ultima with double shield attacks and ff1 non white mage/fighter parties). At least with Mario, Nintendo does a good job in general, even if I'm a bit disappointed with odyssey (unsuitable power moon celebrations get repetitive let alone locked to worlds) and super mario rpg (too easy and then difficulty spike with special enemies I made a vid of).
Then of course today with people using high resource games and have no idea why the switch version has performance problems lol. Vid shows these guys respected their systems' limitations, which some do today fortunately.
Lot easier to write these games today with modern tools. The constraints back then was limited memory, and limited sprites, as well as compute speed. What would take weeks or months to slog through in 1980 takes a day today. Artwork is what slows people down mostly, but you can rip that off at will if you're just duplicating or augmenting and earlier game.
You want fun? They'll show you fun!
i really want a remake for mario crossover because it has so much potential with characters alone.
Add my man yumetaro
What if the whole Smash roster was in there lmao
and give him back his soundtrack from that demon prince dude. down with the monarchy up with the silly little plushie guy
@@Bro-cx2jcThey did that already, it's called Melee's Adventure Mode.
@@aclstudios Good God, has Scoop done a video on that?! If not, I hope he does!
I'm shocked you didn't even bring up Super Mario Bros. X, It came way before Mario Maker and is a much more robust level editor with years of level competitions to provide a near-endless amount of quality fan-made content.
It's not as user friendly as Mario Maker but the custom graphics and programming you can do more than make up for it.
Well this video seems to be exclusively focused on games based off of SMB1, and SMBX is more based off of SMB3
@@stick101x2I subscribed to your CZcams channel
@@stick101x2Yeah that is true upon retrospect, I do hope that SMBX gets it's own video at some point since it's pretty much been erased from the public conscious at this point.
And it was made by the same guy who made Terraria.
did you know that there's a more modern version of mari0 called alesan's entities that has much more features and an active community? you should check it out if you liked the original, and i think more light needs to be shown on it.
it's pretty cool lol, i'm also porting the vvvvvv + portals mod to it aswell in the form of a mappack.
I used to play Super Bros crossover alot
And also full screen Mario
And Mari0 too and there's lots of cool mods for the game
They Aren't Clones, They Are Masterpieces
Agree
@@Jelly_shy_guy_manI see you everywhere
It's not a mistake, it's a masterpiece
@@midi_feline NOOO NOT AGAIN
@@CybopPlays I’m not a bot I just watch a lot of CZcams this is no joke
Are these “clones” in the traditional sense? Clones are typically ripoffs that have been changed a little to try to escape copyright. Eg Great Giana Sisters for Amiga. These mostly aren’t clones they’re homebrews.
Playing Super Mario Crossover with Bill from Contra and getting the spread gun was the ultimate destruction!!
There was also a Windows XP compatible program called Super Mario Bros Game & Builder which ran on Java, and it was basically Super Mario Maker before that was ever even imagined.
I don't know why but you are hilarious! I crack up watching your stuff. I guess you maintained that childlike adventurous spirit many of us have lost.
The Intellivision port is phenomenal also.
Glad to see some pico8 representation!
btw, level mods aren't the only mods for Mari0 (the Portal+SMB1 mashup fangames), there's mod characters to put into the game too, though mod characters tend to not really work with the effects of powerups in SMB1.
A Thwomp in SMB1? They took notes from SMB3 lol
About Super Mario Crossover, it used to have more playable characters than shown here, like I think, the avatars of the Super Famicom Satellaview (Or however you spell it) for example, but I think they got axed. Now we have less characters to play as, for some reason. I could easily though just be spouting from false memories I have, as I make them sometimes, on accident
That's amazing how creative people get with that old game
You reminded me that I need to hop on Flashpoint and archive Super Mario Crossover; thanks! The rest of these look absolutely incredible, too; I can't believe the Atari game plays on actual hardware looking that good!
Thank you for this video! I must check out the Pico-8 version! I really like the graphics.
I wish someone would remake the SMB Crossover Game, so that it is easily accessible for everyone and maybe can be worked on. It is so well done and has still so much potential.
Great vid. The pico-8 inclusion was neat.
To be fair, the Atari 2600 could show 128 colors, the NES had only 32. The advantage of the NES was tile-based graphics.
gonna play it 100%
was dissapointed to learn there is no bionic commando option.
I played Mari0 and SMB Crossover years ago and oh man the nostalgia! It was mostly me trying to play the original SMB on a browser but finding these gems along the way
Looks like a lot of fun
3:59
I find it funny that Bowser just popped up when he said "Web Browser"
You should probably check out fangames like Super Mario Bros X (version 2.0 specifically!) or Super Mario Flashback if you are interested in more fangames!
You’re awesome Gruz. As a fellow former Mac gamer, I found you and followed you years ago with my old CZcams account. So glad to see you’re getting the attention you deserve.
Mega Man in the SMB world is the crossover I didn't know I needed. Gotta check these out!
The Atari 2600 may have lacked graphical resolution, and number of sprites, but it did not lack in pallet. It could display so many vivid colors on screen. Though with it's limited ram and resolution, you didn't get to see it's full pallet on screen much. The 2600 is a very colorful system.
Mari0 is good
Obviously
@@Jelly_shy_guy_man ok you have any Mappack???
@@jasminefrazier8624 yes that portal one as well as a sonic one
@@Jelly_shy_guy_man theres a sonic one
Mario Crossover is one of the few of these I've played back then and it made me always wonder whether the Teams at Nintendo actually played and enjoyed it, because it always felt like it might have been the inspiration for the gameplay changing transformations in Mario Maker (like turning into Link).
SMB Crossover made my entire childhood since I had no way to play the original game back in the day. Many hours spent. Big respect.
Wow, thanks for the video!
i was obsessed with super mario crossover v3
Im afraid your wrong gruz. The atari 2600 had a 128 color pallete, over twice the nes. You were only limited to 4 colors per scanline but all 128 could appear at once. With some tricks you could make 480 colors appear on screen at once!
I think calling these clones wouldn't be doing them justice.
I used to play Mari0, since the early ages of my channel
the best way to play Mari0 is Alesan's Entities, which lets you use classic mode after beating the game (or entering the konami code) which can make it a pc port of SMB1
8:25 This is cool!
I think he confused the term, “clone” with “fangame” a clone is when someone makes a knock off game like those in the App Store, while a fangame is where a fan of a series makes a game based off that game
Glad someone else said this.
I think you're just young. "Clone" doesn't have to carry this negative connotation. A lot of "doom-clones" of the past were great games.
@@awsomebot1 Whether it *should* or not, it *does* have that negative connotation, depending on where it's being used (So, while it's not so negative with Doom or similar games, something like monster tamers have been held down by the "Pokémon Clone" label for a long time and is only recently starting to escape it).
I think the amount of negativity the term "clone" has mostly depends on the context.
Mario x Portal is insanely awesome!
Crossover unlocked a hidden memory
See, THIS is why i subscribed to this channel. Love the nostalgia 😃
Mari0 has a better edition called Alesan99's entities. You should try that!
yeah yeah yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
4:06 I wish someone would take this game and actually make it for SNES (it would kinda have to be SNES rather than NES given if has both 8-bit and 16-bit modes, which I'd want), as that would just be awesome. I'm sure someone could ROM hack Super Mario All-Stars and achieve something just like this.
Holy Smokes!!! Thats so cool. Thanks for another great video.
Wait, so it's the
"Aperture Science Portable Quantum Tunneling Device (ASPQTD)?
I've always heard it as the
"Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device" (ASHPD).
I have Mario Crossover as a flash game.
Oh cool!
Amazing video as usual
OMG! I want to try these!
I remember playing Mario Crossovers and I spent hours on the computer playing.
Excellent Content as usual! 👍🏻🇺🇲
There also are demakes for the Commodore 64 and Intellivision.
Yeah!
Right on, cool mods. Reviews of some other free-to-play browser games?
Damn !! I never knew that Sega genesis controllers could work on the Atari 2600!
BTW, the Mario version on it is a great work.
That's not all - did you hear that if you drop Mentos into Coke, the Coke fizzes up explosively? 😛
(The Genesis controller compatibility is pretty well-known but I guess there's always somebody hearing about something for the first time, haha)
@@3rdalbum 😅 good one for the Mentos !
Man, i had to wait more than 40yrs to know about the Gen controller. My whole life is changed ! 🤣
Super Mario Bros Crossover was the first way I played through Super Mario Bros as a kid
My main in Super Mario Bros. Crossover was Paladin Cecil.
rom hacks, and de-makes are not clones. Come on man. Something like the original Giana Sisters could be considered a clone of sorts, since it's its own game, and pretty much copied the SMB formula.
Tiny Toon Adventures on the NES is another great one, with three alternate characters that can swap out with Buster Bunny, the protagonist. I loved it when I first bought it, and very reminiscent of Super Mario Land 2, at the time my only Super Mario game.
With one of the games he said "this is not a clone, this is a remake"
As someone who has made both romhacks and a (terrible) demake, I would say it depends on the context.
Like sometimes it's an attempt at seeing what can be done with other limitations (the PICO8 version of SMB).
While sometimes it can just be to ride on the coat tails of another properly (the SEGA version of SMB).
Oh shut up, he’s showing off some cool shit
@_Big_Soup although it's true that a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet. You still shouldn't call one a duck. Words have meanings. I clicked on the video, because of the title. The title was a lie. So it matters to me.
Super Princess Rescue is Crazy Fun
I'd also Recommend Zippy the Porcupine
"honey wake up, new killgruz video dropped"
This video was pretty good! I can’t wait for the next one! #retro 🕹️👾
There was browser game Jelly Mario
fan made not clone
suoer mario crossover is literally part of my childhood
SMBC is a classic! i wasn't even an NES kid and i frequented the SMBC website for a good bit of flash's lifespan when i could! (i'm currently 17)
Nes still holds up to this day for everyone. Amazing timeless library
I’m surprised Nintendo hasn’t already issued C&Ds and DMCA takedowns to every one of these games, your channel, and every one of us for watching this video.
I also have Flash 😎
k1llgruz is back!
You didn't mention that mario can have a literal minecraft diamond pickaxe and minecraft-like inventory system in Mari0, but that's alright
You forgot Jelly Mario...
I used to have a copy of Super Mario Crossover 3, the actual .swf file on my computer back in the day. During a blizzard, when the Internet wasn't working, I mostly just played SMC nonstop on my laptop. You can even play as freaking Benjamin from Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. 🤷🏻♀️🫠 My favorite Flash game of all time. I'm so happy these games are preserved somewhere.
I remember getting really into flash games during my last few years of high school, to the point where I made one of those unblocked games websites with Google sites. This was one of them, definitely my favorite.
super mario crossover v3 this was my favorite game of flash games
I'm not sure if these would be considered clones (more like fan games/homebrew), but it's a great video anyway
I vaguely remember playing Mario on Windows 95 or 98 a long time ago. Any idea what that could have been?
I vaguely remember it too, probably on school computers. There have been clones and remakes of SMB on computers for a VERY long time!
We need Ninja Gaiden game genie codes
I love the original super Mario Bros I don’t like clones of this game it’s just a masterpiece. My high school is 5-2
SWF file flash games can still be played on some media players.
I really hope someone converts Super Mario Crossover to a modern platform like HTML5. It's way, way too good to be buried in a Flash archive.
super mario 'x' was a fan game putting mario in the metroid world but I can't really find it anymore.
❤ I love mario crossover ❤.
There is however one more Mario clone and that is Jelly Mario Bros
didn't smc have an unfinished html5 version?
6:42 This one is HTML5!
Mari0 is great and its modding scene is amazing. But the physics are a little off, and you can only unlock mods once you've completed the original SMB in it. For someone like me who is rubbish at platformers, that's a significant downside.
alesan's entities has the option to turn on the original physics
How does it feel playing Princess Rescue with an Atari stick?
Could anyone take Super Mario Crossover and turn it into a hack to play as a ROM?
In pretty sure the Atari has the same number of colors as the NES more or less...
6:17 or downloading its swf file and downloading adobe shockwave(flash swf player)
genesis controller on atari 2600
what sense does that make
I have a nintend switch, and I won't get to the secret door in Super mario 2. Also, I don't know how to do game gine
sega megadrive, kid chameleon and james pond 3
Atari 2600 actually has bigger color palette than NES.
The fact some of these aren't clones and some here are just fangames
happy to be early
actually, only first game is super mario clone, because only this game dont have word "mario" in title and other "clones" in this video is more like fan-games or hacks for "super mario bros", not clones
literally none of these are clones, they are all fan games. A smb clone would be something like The Great Gianna Sisters
do it with mario bros 3
Anyone played mario gore?:) that was dope
Fan game ❌
Clone ✔️
