Description:
Here is a hack which combines:
- Mario Bros.,
- Super Mario Bros.,
- Super Mario Bros. 2 JPN (The Lost Levels),
- Super Mario Bros. 2 USA, and
- Super Mario Bros. 3.
Also added into this hack is the ability to use SRAM to save your games and to save your top score in Mario Bros.
This game is using Mapper 005 (MMC5) and it uses 1MB/1024kb’s of PRG-ROM, & 1MB/1024kb’s of CHR-ROM. Except for Super Mario Bros, all the other Mario games are converted to MMC5 as well.
Note: An MMC5-capable emulator is required, otherwise the graphics will be a garbled mess.
To access Mario Bros, on the game select screen, hold A and press Up on Super Mario Bros.

— 1: SMB1 & SMB2 JPN ;redid the lives counter so that when you have over 9 lives, it displays your correct amount. However, once you pass 99 lives, (62-FF hex) it is hard coded to always say 99 lives.
2: SMB2 USA ;fixed error where the game does not reset the lives counter, after a game over with a saved file.
3: SMBAS-INTRO ;fixed correct release year for SMBAS-NES, it was 2015.

Very Convenient
Reviewed By: yoyotheyoshi on 27 May 2015There isn’t much to say about this one, considering it’s mainly a compilation of 4 games:
- Super Mario Bros.
- Super Mario Bros. 2 (JP) {The Lost Levels}
- Super Mario Bros. 2 (US)
- Super Mario Bros. 3
But the things that truly stand out with this one are the awesome intro/title screen upon loading the hack, and the fact it saves your game as SRAM data, working as real saves, something never before seen in the NES versions of these games. What’s more is that it saves the last stage you were at, and allows you to continue later.
Example: You made it to 1-4 in Super Mario Bros., save and quit, come back later, and you may continue 1-4 again. It also does this with the rest of the games, including Super Mario Bros. 3 and the last stage you completed stays finished.
Very convenient and I can see this being turned into a neat little repro cart. Props for taking the time to put this together, it’s very enjoyable and gives yet another reason to play through these wonderful games all over again, for the umpteenth time.
