Game Genie codes for Super Mario Brothers 1-2-3
I created most of the music codes for Mario 1 and almost all of the codes for
Mario 2 and 3. Credit is given where known, but this is hearsay and as
such it is not terribly accurate.
However, thanks to
dml@localnet.com,
tsr@atarihq.com, and Nintendo Power
for compiling many of the Mario 1 codes which were featured on tsr's NES
archive in the FAQs section, in a file titled Super Mario Bros-The Stupid
File. Some Mario 1 codes come from the SMB Game Genie Page on NES WORLD.
A few of the Mario 2 and 3 codes come from: NESJournal #3, NESJournal
#5, and Jesse Smith's game page.
Disclaimer: These codes were all tested on my CARTRIDGE of the Mario games.
They will not necessarily work in an emulator. The music codes will probably
not work at all on an emulator, since NESTICLE does not do a very good job
of emulating NES sound.
