Hacking New Super Mario Bros U on Original Wii

[JacobKibben]

I have decided that I am going to create a full blown NSMBU Game on Wii for those who can't afford a Wii U. The way I am going to do this is by hours of studying walkthrough videos and copying each piece into a level on NSMBWii using Reggie! Level Editor. However, I am fairly new to this and have a few questions that some of you readers may be able to answer. First of all, is there any way to edit the World Maps? Any way at all would be good, even if it requires hours of coding, i'll do it. Second of all, is it possible to edit the video that plays at the beginning and others? And last but not least, can you modify the File Selection Screen? Thank you to all that answer in later time, and none of you will be left out... Cheer me on!!!

Do you have any coding experience?

OK!

Good Luck!

Do You know how much coders earn these days? You can afford WiiU+game for about one week of work.

Just one question for anybody out there.
What about the new power-up(s)! How could we program them into the NSMBW engine?

I was thinking that I could figure out a powerup in NSMBWii closest to the actual power up in NSMBU.

For example, Acorn Suit = Propeller Suit.

That is... Unless someone out there knows how to make custom powerups in NSMBWii.

Im fairly good at it. and when I don't know how to do something, I'm really quick to learn it.

Yeah, but I feel like doing it the hard way for two reasons. One, I decided that i'm gonna hold back on buying a Wii U and wait for a Xbox 720 or a PS4. Second, for those, including me, that really don't wanna buy a $400 Console but want to enjoy the Mario U Game and happen to have a Wii.

Plus, I have an modified Wii that's just laying around for when my friends come over and dance on Just Dance 4, so I really want to have another use for the old console.

How are you remaking the game if you don't have it?

 

[ShadowSoldier]

I give it 2 months before you give up and just start half assing. Then another 2 months before you give up all together.

ye and why not "port" Super mario 3D land to NES?

Hey Readers!

If anyone out there has found an excellent NSMBU Tileset for NSMBWii, please send me a link. I would like to give this hack a full NSMBU Experience (with the exception of most likely no new power-ups.

In my first post I said and I quote,

Thank you for the positive feedback! You just leveled up my confidence in this project by +1!!!

Finished remaking Acorn Plains-1 in NSMBWii 1-1. Now beginning Acorn Plains-2.

Awesome good luck I worked on a remake of the original game on NSMB when the reggie editor came out. It shouldn't be too hard the only hard part is the new items but I wouldn't worry about those until the end because it is really the levels that matter first before anything else for a project like this.

No vids or pics ?

technically possible. the level design in mario 3dland is very straight forward, you could hack mario bros 3 until you get a NES version of 3D land. so TECHNICALLY possible...
