"the wall-climbing, statue-hunting ninja in the sleeveless uniform, Ninja Gaiden's Ryu Hayabusa" and "Ryu Hayabusa" is one of the article's tags.

Troll harder.

Yeah that's trolling. I'm w/ McPoopface. That title is an insult to self-respecting gamers everywhere!

"Self-respecting gamers" don't really give a flying f**ck about what his name is, but rather enjoy the game he's in.

Seriously, how has Nintendo not shut this down yet?

Whatever, I'm just thankful they haven't, this is a fantastic project XD

I really wish someone would pick this up and run with it as a MAME rom. This game needs to be in an arcade cabinet somewhere.

My guess is Nintendo needs to finish playing it before they shut it down. Might take awhile.

This is the internet. It's possible to head them off in development, but once something hits the web, it's almost impossible to shut down ALL the people that have copied it.

Most nintendo fan games never get shut down and those that do are usually just making up an excuse for quitting or trying to charge money. I know games which were posted on the old nintendo forums and never got shut down.

Now if they would make Kratos as your character and replace all the Koopa Troopas and Goombas with Zombies, this would be GOTY.

The problem with this is that Kratos never had sprites...like ever.

...and while they're at it they could replace the princess with Lara Croft, change the setting to a Halo ring, render everything int 720p HD, throw in motion controls, and toss in a few preorder incentives with vendor exclusives.

@Chris,

I actually tried that on my iPhone and, while it was sweet as all hell, Android lagged like a mofo. Still it's pretty damn awesome that we have the ability to dual boot our smartphones!

By the way Chris, are you getting a new phone? What do you think about the Evo? I've had my iPhone for 2 years now and I think it might be time to move on. Or should I wait to see what El Jobs has to offer on June 7th?

yea the guy said he had to do a lot more optimization for it, but I'm sure there are a number of nerds working on that for the iPad alone....


the Evo is bad ass.....I just fcuking HATE sprint....even tho here in Greensboro we were a Test are for the WiMax network and I know people that love Clear for it, I just can't make that move, even for the Evo...and I wish VZ or AT&T had their 4G LTE network up by the end of the year.....then we could possibly see a 4G iPhone next year....but I have a 3Gs and will most likely upgrade to the iPhone that comes out next month....and then again....something tells me I will love the WinPho7 based phones will be outstanding....

well WinMo dies with 6.5....WinPho7 is a complete overhaul from the ground up....

the reason it so appealing to me is because EVERY phone will be a Zune....and I was going to jump on the ZuneHD as soon as it hit 64GBs.....but I think I'll just wait for a WinPho7 smartphone that has 64GBs....maybe Toshiba or Samsung will make one that big.....as I feel everyone else will stay in the 8GB or less range....

SMBXover is GOTY and it didn't need a $100million budget or a twenty dollar price tag to get there.

Considering the development costs of all the games it borrows from, that's hardly an accurate assessment.

Yes, I understand what you're saying, but as much as we pat the developers on the back for being imaginative in bringing together all these characters into the Mario universe, it's only because the original games' creators put so much into the source material that we even give a damn.
