Well, I know this has practically no chance to get approved to main forum, but I'm going to post it anyways. So, then, I proudly present New Super Mario Bros. Modern

What is this?

NSMB Modern's goal is to make good old NSMB look decent, without any major level edits.

What will it feature?

Basically nothing more than listed below, which is:
•Graphics ripped from newer NSMB games
•New music that doesn't replace anything among old tracks
•Corrected game mechanics
•Lots of familiar stuff

How much is left to be done?

Only polishing is left. Currently I am focusing on solving castle animations.

How does it look like?

I have some videos, but they aren't great, so will post screenshots instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q:How long were you working on it?
A:Including two earlier attempts, way before I joined this board.

Q:Do you have any sort of website?
A:Yes, I do. You can find it here: http://noknok.bplaced.net/nsmbmodern

Q:Is this playable on my DS/3DS?
A:Yes, it is. You need a flash cartridge for both and in case of 3DS you can hack it and install TWLoader (not recommended - banwave)

Q:Can I play Mario vs Luigi?
A:Yes, you can. It has been prepared good enough to be playable.

Q:When will it be released?
A:Release date is not specified yet. I guess it'll be somewhere this year. Newer DS compiling tools are needed.

Hope you'll enjoy the hack!

It's a nice idea! Kinda like remixing it maybe idk

Yeah, was about remixing NSMB but I chose a word modernizing.

Unless you're going to remix the levels themselves...I don't really see a point to this hack.

I mean yes, it's cool to see updated textures (That's why there's graphics editing), but you lose something if it's only the original levels.

#HakingNoMore

One important thing to mention: Hack is in hiatus at the moment. The reason is lack of Newer DS building tools and my own research on tileset slot 1 animations.

This looks good, but I don't remember Palm Trees being standable.

Yes in NSMBWII and NSMBU you can jump on them and when you do a ground-pound some will release 5 coins

Maybe that's one of the additions of the "modernisation"?

Maybe this is just a demo hack to show off NokNok's ability, and he'll release another hack with edited levels sooner or later.

Nice tilsets btw.

Yeah, I'll release another, major hack later (NSMBW, unfortunately) but um... Idea comes from times when only thing I could do was to swap a tileset object in level or import NMT. Later, I thought scrapping an idea would be a waste.

EDIT:

Thanks, made few myself. Around 95% of them is from NSMBU.

Went to check out your website a couple days ago, it seemed to have been removed or something.

Even though it's a nice idea, there's really no point if your not being creative and creating your own levels. All you're doing is making the book look modern, but not changing the words in the book in any way.

I have some sort of idea: Chose a wrong way to introduce to hacking, so please trash this. No idea how to remix Ninty's levels.
