Mario Adventure 3
ScarlettVixen's long-awaited Super Mario Bros. 3 hack: new worlds to explore and backtrack through, star collectibles, new power-ups and a Master Quest.
What it is
Mario Adventure 3 is ScarlettVixen's large Super Mario Bros. 3 hack, the third in the Mario Adventure line, with its own official website that collects tips, secrets and patch notes from the developer.
What's new
- Worlds that can be crossed and revisited freely, without cutscenes in between
- Hidden collectibles and stars that open blocked areas and new abilities
- Four brand-new power-ups and reworked versions of four returning ones
- Weather and other new graphical effects, including more colours on screen than the NES normally shows
- A tougher Master Quest, an optional Casual Mode that drops the star requirements, autosave and item shops near the end of most maps
Version 1.9.9 (October 2024) is a long list of fixes and tweaks to stages, bosses and the Master Quest.
Playing it
The site has a built-in patcher: you supply your own Super Mario Bros. 3 ROM and it picks and applies the right patch.
