Links, repository & detailsAbout
Super Mario Bros. is Nintendo's 1985 NES platform game in which Mario and Luigi travel through the Mushroom Kingdom to rescue Princess Toadstool from King Koopa. This is a Wii port of Super Mario War, the fan-made multiplayer Mario deathmatch game, built on SDL Wii; the author rewrote large parts of SDL Wii's file, video, and sound handling to make the port work, hoping to encourage further SDL-based Wii ports.
Getting started
Copy the game's apps and smw folders to the root of an SD card, then launch it from the Wii's homebrew channel.
History
The port first released in April 2009, followed by a fix for a music-related crash later that year, a 2010 refresh matching Super Mario War's 1.8 beta 2, and a final 2010 update adding USB 2.0 support via IOS58.
