Description:
Super Mario Land DX is a romhack of the original Super Mario Land for the Game Boy that turns the game into a Game Boy Color game. It adds color and changes the graphics to give the game a modern look.
v2.0 (20/04/2022):
- Framerate issues have been addressed. That includes issues in the original game, especially noticeable in 3-2 (hard mode).
- Mario’s sprites have been revamped. They are mostly the same size as the originals.
- Mario’s relative position when jumping has been fixed. This was responsible for the weird collision issues in v1.0 (yeah, it wasn’t the sprites).
- Luigi has been added. He has slightly different physics.
- Old graphics are now an option. Not all graphics are unchanged, as it mostly affects the sprites, but this should be good enough for people who didn’t like the new ones.
- A shortcut to difficult mode has been added.
- New palette for Superball Mario/Luigi.
- New animation for Super Mario/Luigi when looking up.
- New animation for Super Mario/Luigi when entering a pipe.
- Options menu added to accommodate the new options.
- Battery added to permanently save your options, top score and level selection.
- Every single stage’s colors have been tweaked.
- An incompatibility screen for the original Game Boy has been added.
- Hundreds of minor (and not so minor) changes and fixes.

One of the greatest colorization hacks just got better!
Reviewed By: Bluestreak on 28 Apr 2022Super Mario Land… A game known to be not only one of the first ever Game Boy games released, but also a classic many could say hasn’t aged well. When a hack like this comes along, however, the dated oldie (but goodie) gets an extra life. With beautiful colours that take full advantage of the fact the GBC has eight four-color background palettes, and eight three-color sprite palettes, you get a game that’s not only a visual treat, but also, with its newest update, makes it the greatest way to adventure through Sarasaland.
Now taking advantage of the faster CPU, the ability to use “new” style sprites, and “old” style sprites (if you’re like me and adore that retro feel), and best of all, the ability to play as Luigi with his signature control style, makes a quick, but fun game you’ll play again and again just to see if you can get a high score!
Also, are you a bad enough plumber to beat that hard mode?
