Footage of the new Mario 2d sidescroller for Nintendo DS

Mario Adventure, the greatest NES hack of all time. Someone basically built SMB 3 part 2. It could be more polished, but this is pretty neat.

"In a way, I think we all thirst for a new 2D side scrolling Mario adventure. It’s some sort of basic human need, along with eating, sleeping and reproduction. Why, just last week I was about to keel over for want of Mario when, at the last minute, I found the greatest NES game hack of all time, Mario Adventure. But this isn’t your usual game hack, mind you. You’ll find no giant buttocks glued onto Mario’s forehead, no nude Mushroom Retainers, no Super Tokin’ Brothers with Luigi replaced by a white Rastafarian with a cannabis leaf for a hat. Nope, this is a real game - a new game, crafted with care and aplomb using the Super Mario Bros. 3 game engine. Who executed this masterful feat? I have no idea; the only credit I can find is the name “DAHRKDAIZ” on the title screen, and I haven’t found an official home page for it. Would the author of this masterpiece please stand? I’d like to give you the recognition you’re due."
