Miss Peach World can be found a bit more often in Japan than internet auction.

You should either look for a contact there or find some bidding service.
But Miss Peach World usually sell for quite a lot of money (I think 200+ for CIB, but I might be off)

Here is a Miss Peach World for sale, albeit quite expensive imo

Maybe if you message him, he will take less for it?

I wasn't expecting such a high price for a game cartridge, is there any one out there that knows someone that could make a repro cart of this title?

That one's a bit overpriced (as are all his items), but that's just margin to knock down an offer on.

Why would you want a repro of MPW?  You know the game's a piece of shit and doesn't even have anything to do with Peach, right?

You can make a repro of SMW though, it's been dumped.

Yeah, perhaps would be better off just getting Menace Beach if you were going to play the game.  I also saw a loose copy on ebay at one point, but it was also a bit overpriced imo.

Hopefully I didn't sound condescending.  Just asking what the motive is really.  SMW is more of a curiosity, but I still think its a poor imitation of the SNES game.

Hahaha, imo you are just being brutally honest on the topic.  I think hardly anyone wants to actually play that thing, and (imo anyways), why would a collector want an imitation "repro" unless they just wanted to play it?

That was my question basically.  The boxart makes it look like the world's best SMB3 hack, but in actuality it's a shambles of a game.

SMW is obviously a lot better, but it's like the poorer cousin and then some.  Great achievement, but the game is too big for Famicom in my opinion.

Hey, the power pak now supports Super Mario World.

You could go with that solution.

Get in!  I know I will be.  Now I don't have to try and find it.

I know miss peach world is a daft game but it would be nice to have this oddity as part of my strange library of famicom titles, I'm after completing my collection of weird games that surprisingly very few avid gamers here in the UK know nothing about, only a handful of the most die hard retro fans know about famicom pirates, and even the majority of those guys know very little about the Mario Hack library that's on offer, it's not something you see over here, which makes collecting all these titles a must, as for Super Mario World, again, not exactly what it should have been, but an impressive attempt which validates it as a Super Pirate in my opinion, definitely a must have cartridge which again, very few avid gamers here in the UK even know such a title exists in 8 bit format, if anyone knows of anyone who is a able to make me a repro of mario world (and miss  peach world)  please let us know, thankyou .

I second that. If someone could mak me a reproduction of super Mario world or hussle up an original pirate I'd gladly give them cash money for the effort.

any repro maker can do it - i.e. nesreproductions.com

great, I hope they don't charge thru the roof for repros, I will see what they say

They're not cheap and often not famicom fans...  If you're in the UK I'll try and help you out buy combining an order and saving on shipping, unless it's urgent?

you guys are wrong :-[

Frankly speaking all that these shitty repromakers can do is just swapping the ROMs into donor cart.

damn kids they're all alike. Consider the following threads
http://www.nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=56&threadid=83971
http://forums.nesdev.com/viewtopic.php?t=5568

if so strike me the offer only if you are really interested in custom made SMW. No lowballing, don't have a try if your offer is not in 3 digits range.

and regarding 'beach menace' it's more friendly for reproducing but there is no ready for swapping existing donor board. I've just safely assumed that it used the same mapper as miss peach (sorry, i have no time to find the ROM file to check it or search mapper conversion hacks for it). It needs a little applying of some human brains to recreate the mapper 11. I'm not sure if any repro maker can do it

cheers

My bad then I guess.  I forgot about the funky mapper.

I know you're not talking about me ;).  I knew it had been dumped but forgot it was a unique mapper.

What is so special about SMW?

AFAIK the game placed on single game pirate cart is incomplete e.g. lacks some levels and so on. Correct me if i'm wrong, but
it sounds like it will be the first complete single game cart. That is why it's in 3 digits range ;D
