Is anyone familiar with the origin of Hanshin Tigers Giabbit Hunting Super Mario Bros.?

OMG I want that now why did you have to post that JC why?
This and the Paper Mario Cart looks more like "reproduction" carts than pirates.
The desing is very like the official famicom ones , where are they from?
I agree. It looks like a repro made from a ROM hack. I've never seen it before, so I doubt it was manufactured in some large quantity, but probably made by some fan.
Any idea what the B | S | O (Ball? Strike? Out? maybe) is for? And is Mario throwing baseballs? Since there is no world/level indicator, maybe it's just one level...
Gotta be ball, strike, out. Because he's definitely throwing baseballs. I'm curious what follows "BY" on the title screen...
where did you find that?
I had that ROM hack and several others from the same author about 9 years ago, when I was totally into emulation.
Here's another one from the same guy: Kamikaze Mario (http://fuji.drillspirits.net/mario/?page=kamikazedxp). He identifies himself as "79" (prolly because of the different ways to pronounce Japanese numbers).
Were they any fun?

By the way, is there a REALLY good SMB Hack?, all the ones that i´ve played sucks
Strider, if you want something that's stupidly frustrating, I've got the thing for you.

That is by far the most frustrating Mario hack I have ever played. If you want the ROM and can't find it yourself, send me a PM.
That is an amazing cart. Def some kind of repro, Id love to own this (or even find the R0m for that matter, and make my own)!!! FYI, Mario is playing with the Hanshin Tigers and he is hunting Giabbit (Yomiuri Giants Mascot, Tigers main rival) in this game! SO COOL!!!!!!! ;D
I want this cart and a SMW cart. 8)
How goofy! Don't much care about Hanshin Tigers, but as a Lum fan I have that one figurine with the flag. :upsetroll:
It's a right hair-puller to play... The game gives you plenty of free lives, but you need them: It's essentially impossible, and I'm not even certain that it has an ending.
I couldn't quite work out how the scorecard worked either, but the game is positively bizarre and has a sense of charm from how mind-bogglingly twisted it is. :bomb:
Has anyone ever "beat" this hack, or, at the very least, completed the first stage? I'm kinda rockin' this game everyday for stretches of 5-10 minutes, and I've got to what I think is either the 4th or 5th part of the first stage. The part that keeps looping on me must either be like 7-4 in Bowser's Castle where you have to figure out the pattern, or it is just a practical joke with no end.
By the way, Mario looks really awesome in the Hanshin Tigers outfit, doesn't he? I really dig the speed and trajectory of the baseball/fireballs, too.
Edit: Alright, I found the "hidden" (yeah, yeah, there was an arrow) Bowser castle warp. Let's see what this is all about...
there is no end to the game (that anyone knows of at least), it just constantly cycles. Someone had uploaded a video of it to youtube...progression has something to do with the B/S/O (ball/Strike/Out) in the top corner...
I would be less hesitant to dedicate some time to this game if I knew there was indeed an actual carrot for me to grab at the end of the stick as a reward for all of my efforts. A mind f*ck isn't necessarily a bad thing; I just don't want potentially endless repetition compounding the mind f*ck, too.

Might this be the carrot? ???
