Pokemon and Super Mario fans, here is something for you. Have you ever wondered what a Super Mario game would look like with the mechanics of a Pokémon game? Well, time to find out.
YouTube’s ‘Alpharad’ has released a cool Super Mario Mod for Pokemon Fire Red (apparently the mod is for Pokemon Emerald). This mod basically replaces all the characters, NPCs and enemies of Pokemon with those from the Super Mario world.
What’s also cool here is that NPCs have specific/modded lines. For instance, some NPCs will say that they love Super Mario Bros. 3. This is a unique line that wasn’t present in Pokémon Emerald.
Like the Super Mario games, the progression in this mod is world-based. This means that you’ll have to visit Warp Center so that you can access those worlds. Plus, you will find a lot of side quests. Oh, and the mod replaces the music with the one from the classic Super Mario games.
This is such a cool mod and I highly recommend getting it. And yes, PC gamers will be able to use an emulator to play it. After all, this is a romhack. So, head over to Alpharad’s Discord server to download it.
Now, since this is a mod, I don’t believe Nintendo will attempt to take it down. Still, this is Nintendo we’re talking about. They could find a loophole and say that this mod encourages piracy. Or something like that. Thus, you should download it while it’s still available.
Speaking of romhacks, I also suggest checking out some romhacks that Kaze Emanuar has released for Super Mario 64. Super Mario 64 Land, Super Mario Bros 64 and Super Waluigi 64 are three truly incredible romhacks. And then we have this Super Mario Odyssey romhack. All of them are cool, so be sure to check them out.
Have fun!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
