Hi all,
My buddy asked me to do the following:
"Could you build a 2 player standalone that is Mario and Luigi themed...with every Mario / Luigi game you could find out there on the system...Donkey kong..Super Mario...etc...with Mario sticker art on the case? I would want it for the kids for Christmas."
So I think we settled on a cocktail unit (kids can reach it easily and it can support both vertical and horizontal.)
BUT, here's where I need the help of the BYOAC community. I need a list of games that have Mario in it. They MUST be in emulators that are playable. And no playchoice games. The computer will be an AMD X2 2.6ghz chip (or similar). I found a list here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mario_video_games_by_year) but I need to know what is currently emulated and works well. I will add to the list as I get suggestions.
The list so far is as follows:
MAME
Donkey Kong (technically it's Jumpman but close enough)
Donkey Kong Jr.
Donkey Kong III (not Mario but it has Donkey Kong)
Mario Bros
NES
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario Bros. 2
Super Mario Bros. 3
Wrecking Crew
Punch Out! (Mario is referee)
Donkey Kong Classics
Dr. Mario
Yoshi
SNES
Super Mario World
Super Mario Kart
Super Mario All Stars
Gameboy
Super Mario Land
Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
Dr. Mario
Gameboy Advance
Super Mario Advance
Mario Kart: Super Circuit
Super Mario Bros. - The Lost Levels
N64
Super Mario 64
Mario Kart
Mario Party
Mario Party 2
Super Smash Bros.
Mario Tennis
Game Cube
Super Mario Sunshine
Mario Party 4
Luigi's Mansion
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Wario World
Wii
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
DS
TBD
Thanks in advance!

Paper Mario for N64
Super Paper Mario for Wii
EDIT: I can't say how well they play. And I see they are on the list you linked to.
I blame you for shouting GO!
-
I think theres a Mario-themed VP pinball table if you want to put that on there too
-
Paper Mario for N64
Super Paper Mario for Wii
Aren't those RPG's? I'm guessing they are a little too complex for smaller children.

That's a possibility. Although I was probably going to avoid the pinball genre. But just in case, any idea what the exact name of the table is and for what system (Visual Pinball)(Future Pinball), etc.

Mario Clash and Mario Tennis on Virtual Boy

Mario Clash on Virtual Boy
Is Virtual Boy emulated? Any special hardware needed?
-
Not sure - didn't see that it had to be emulated games. I still have my virtual boy somewhere but the stand broke, so it is a pain to try and play. Added Mario Tennis that I forgot about.
I haven't tried to emulate it before, but thought I saw emulators for it in the past. No idea how well or if they work.

You missed the MarioKart games for GameCube/WII, Plus Super Mario Galaxy 1/2 & New Super Mario Bros. on the WII.
-
How about one of the best games for MAME, Super Mario Bros. (it is different than the NES version)
Mario popped up in a lot of places. You would be very hard pressed to find all of them.
I think even the referee in punch out was marioish....

I was just about to mention "Vs. Super Mario Bros"
-
how about mario vs donkey kong on the GBA...it is alot of fun
-
Another pretty good list and read.

I don't know if they are emulated, but these are the Mario pinball tables.

How different? Enough to warrant having it as well as the NES version?

Super Mario Bros VP9_1UP_UW_V1.2.vpt

Here is one that almost everyone misses:
Pinball (for the NES) (He is on the bonus screen)
-
Yoshi's Island (SNES)
Super Mario Advance 2: Super Mario World (GBA - Remake of Super Mario World)
Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island (GBA - Remake of the above)
Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros 3 (GBA - Remake of Super Mario Bros 3)
Donkey Kong (Gameboy -This is an awesome sequel/update of DK)

And no playchoice
I don't know much about playchoice, so I guess this is a dual-purpose question;
Why no playchoice games? Because you'd rather use the console versions?
-
Mario Andretti's Racing Challenge (PC)
:D
I agree with no Playchoice because Playchoice just offers gimped versions of NES games on a timer.

Okay, didn't know that. That would make sense.
-
On the NES, Mario was also in Pinball (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinball_(video_game)) and Tennis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_(video_game)).
-
Super Mario RPG - Legend of the Seven Stars is also one of them... But yeah, thats a little too complex for kiddies.
Dont put Yoshis Island on there. The baby version of mario is too freaking annoying. Why have a digital version of a crying kid when you already have real life ones.

DeLuSioNal29,
How about you post this MEGA Mario list once you're done? Personally I'm curious to see the completed list.
-
D2K jumpman return,
rom hack of the original donkey kong that added 4 or 5 more levels to the game.
Check it out

You said it perfectly.
:applaud:
-
Okay this might be a stretch but in the middle of Donkey Kong 64 there is a DK cabinet. You walk up to the cabinet and you can play the arcade version of DK-- with Mario.
-
Hotel Mario on the CDI ran pretty well in MESS last time I tested, failing that it runs in the TinyCDI build I posted somewhere deep in my site at the time. It's actually quite good fun, and a lot closer to a traditional 'Mario' arcade game (think the original Mario Bros) than the likes of Super Mario, even if it's hated by many.
You need the right CHD for it tho.

yoshi's safari if you are going to add a light gun...

It's not an accurate port, though, that's for sure.

Ahh really? You have never played the arcade super mario bros.? Yes it is quite different. Much more difficult, and a lot more fun. If anything I would have that version and not the NES version...
