Take Doki Doki Panic, shove out their main characters, add a different storyline, add the stars of the Mario cast, rename the game and put it onto a NES cartridge. You have this game, one of Nintendo’s finest side-scrollers, in overnight hacking time. Because that’s exactly what this game just actually is. But it’s not … Read more
