Back in February, I posted a bit about RedWolf's in-depth coverage of what he called "The Best NES Game Hack of All Time", a Super Mario Bros. 3 rom hack called Mario Adventure. Now, he's back to school us on the sequel or sorts, Luigi Vs. Mario (aka Mario Adventure 2).

A sadly unfinished project, the game features SMB3-style gameplay and graphics, but with new levels, including character specific worlds, and new power ups, again with some unique to each Mario Brother. A handful of the new abilities include the Mouser Suit (which throws Bob-ombs) and the Panda Suit (which gives the plumbers the skill to walk on ceilings), but check the write up for the full exhaustive list.

There's even a link to the (warning: buggy!) rom hack, so you can check it out yourself. I'm off to find myself a new NES emulator. Michael McWhertor
