What do you mean? It's already been done: What? It's totally real! Stop rolling your eyes! Why don't you believe me? that damn video is part of the reason that I am making this game! it is sooo stupid and whoever made it is sooooo retarded.... AND PEOPLE THINK IT IS REAL!!! the 2600s graphics are not all square blocks.... ROUNDNESS IS POSSIBLE!!!

I made some changes to the game. I am trying to make a better physics engine for the game but am using the buggy one for now... I changed some of the graphics and made it to where you cant go to previous screens. I also added some new screens and a boss (WHICH I WILL IMPROVE LATER; HE WILL BE ABLE TO SHOOT AND OTHER THINGS) and the princess at the end. the new version is in the 1st post...

wow... I spend like 3 hours or so working on a D E M O and people are already modding it and competing to beat it. kinda makes me want to release it ony when its finished. =/ I also kinda get the impression that my game is insulting to Mario fans (even if it is not finished). If you really think that it is not worthy of the title "SMB 2600" then let me know and I will change the theme and name. which would not be a bad idea because then id be doing my own thing and there will be less pressure to release a PERFECT game. otherwise I will keep the theme and finish this as a Mario game. in that case I would ask for help in the following areas: 1 - better 8,8 sprites, no bigger 2 - help with music for title screen (which I plan to add) 3 - if I cant figure it out, I will ask for help on the physics

not much of a game yet. lol whats rad racer?

cool! if you want you can take the one that I already made and fix it up. it is included already. its only problem is that the multiplication and division do not work...

I did that on purpose, makes the player go under bridge so he HAS to jump on the shroom guy with limited room... I thougt it was kinda challenging little twist but this might not be what the areas are like in the end at all.

Mario doesn't have a glitch, but i guess he might need a little work. tough I need to fix the mushrooms because with the multisprite option on, i need to use player1colors: to set their colors, but i didn't cause i tought that COLUP1 would work fine. Now that I told you what DOESN't work with the multisprite option, I guess you could try working on it. \Mario DOES have a glitch because he wraps around to the other side of the screen sometimes and his Y pos wraps and the game thinks he fell in a hole... >_<"

At least in mine there are many screens, mushrooms to jump on and coins to collect........... I plan on finishing this! and if yall dont like it then TOO BAD. lol AND REMEMBER THIS IS ONLY A DEMO! in the end it will be: added screens, music+better 8x8 mario and princess to save at the end of the game from a boss...... who will be huge and shoot at the player. I designed this so there can be like a TON of screens........ Also remember that Atari 2600 translations dont always turn out PERFECT. especially when a 15 year old with 2 years of programming tries it.

an Aatri 8 bit for a 2600 JR? i dont think anyone will do that.

your sprite is too big. it causes the game to think he fell in a hole when you jump under the platform. are the colors messed up? the coins and shrooms are black. and mario is pink and purple. also I changed the grass to green already on the version ima release soon. and the button control too.

read the OP. Its a demo version, meaning INCOMPLETE! I spent a few hours on this while playing another game. but I dont wanna make another 2600 translation look bad. I just wanted to do it cuz no1 else has before... but I guess I might as well change up the name and theme...

that would be nice!

Im 15 and totally agree... but i made up for it! i have a Atari 2600 woodie and JR and a 400 and a portfolio and am trying to buy an st... i also havi an intellivision 2 and epson equity 2 as for the 16 bit era? i lived it in the 90s XD

yeah but i wanted to do my own code. as for the jump thing is less strict than others but if it is REALLY needed ill change to button.

Well thanks! thats the kind of comment that keeps me motivated!

SMB 2600 you say? Is it possible? I say... YES! Ok heres the deal..... I was playing Sorcerer on my 2600 and figured Maby I could make a game like it, but then I quickly realized that I could make a Super Mario game instead! So I have spent the past few hours doing just that...(while playing video games too). This game is much more serious than my other 2600 games and I plan to do my best with it! I will make the NES fans jealous of the 2600!(ok maby not lol) This is a much simpler version of the origional but is still fun. It is currently in its demo stage and has a few or even many bugs. PLEASE NOTE - This game looks like the Kirby game by Atari2600land... that was by accident and i did not realize that until about half way through. NOTABLE BUGS - When you jump and touch the side of a platform, you stick to it. Hold jump to fall off... this is more of a lack of a feature that needs to be added rather than a bug. just try to avoid it for now... When you lose a live, you are taken to the top of the screen where you fall back down, but sometimes if you are holding jump your y coordinate will wrap around and it will think you fell in a hole. FEATURES TO BE ADDED - Many more ares! as many as i can fit on a 4k cart!!!!! A timer with selectable difficulty level The princess at the end of the game and a boss, you must rescue her.... MUSIC AND TITLE SCREEN! WILL NEED HELP WITH MUSIC!!!!! In game sfx. And some other things I forgot as I was typing this.. CURRENT FEATURES - There are enemies. You can kill then by jumping right on top of their head. This gives some points. There are holes that u gotta jump over. There are coins to collect for bonus points. There is a princess to rescue at the end! There is an (incomplete boss) at the end! CONTROLS - Left joystick. To move push left and right. To jump press fire. Ill let you guess what the reset button does... I NEED COMMENTS! TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK! this the stuff... THESE PIX ARE NOW OLD!!! mariobro.bas.bin

hmmmm: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...e=STRK:MEWNX:IT http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...e=STRK:MEWNX:IT http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...e=STRK:MEWNX:IT and others im about to win something VERY cool! =] also im STILL looking for a working atari ST 1040stfm ste or with monitor and floppy drive but some jerks keep raising the bid at the LAST FREAKING MINUTE!

if you show us the code maby someone can help you optimize it. that way you can have more bytes and variables.

AWESOME GAME! I LOVE IT!!!!! did you forget the code that makes the game end when the time runs out? also on the you win screen you should take out the extra ! and put a space between the words. more readable

holycrap! that looks like zaxxon! maby I should make a zaxxon clone!

hmmmm. off the top of my head.... ATARI 400 - LOT... ATARIWRITER LOGO PILOT ZAXXON TAPE AZTEC CHALLENGE TAPE NINJA TAPE DONT WORK!!!... STRANGE ODYSSEY TAPE GHOST TOWN TAPE BOMBER ATTACK TAPE ATARI 2600 - E.T. 25 cents! YARS REVENGE 25 cents! ATARI FLASHBACK 1 (5$! lol) I also almost won a 2600 cassette program thing with a bunch of rare games! im so freaking pissed! i could have got it got a fricken dollar!!!! but no some JERK came along and raised the bid and then i raised it and then ANOTHER JERK came and got it within the last 3 MINUTES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and some other things.....

would a text only displaying kernal be possible? kinda like basic programming?

basic programming is not a game but does not get the respect that it deserves... as well as tunnel runner crypts of chaos stellar track. and the defender game is AWESOME! and space war is also pretty cool... its nice to say that i have a version of one of the 1st video games ever on my atari! superman is also cool. and zaxxon also is very good.... i cant think of any others ATM...

maby you can creater a bunch of areas that are randomly picked so every game is different? and the game could also go on forever... you can even select them based on difficulty and place bosses around the game too!

i was at hunnington beach all weekend picking up girls... XD but now I have more time to 'work' on other things like this... i added obstacles to it too just before I left. will likely post later.
