Super Mario Bros on the Apple IIGS

Discovered this port awhile back. Pretty awesome considering it's running on an Apple machine from 1986.

I only recently discovered Sweet16 and the many, many Apple_II_gs disks available.
Did you manage to compile (or find) a bootable SMB image?
There is also Mario Bros http://www.virtualapple.org/mariobrosdisk.html but I could not make it run on my Hackintosh so far, maybe my keyboard is incompatible, somehow.

The SMB game on that site is in a SHK format, so it has to be extracted from that first. I used CiderPress to extract it and then ADTPro to transfer the files to my actual IIGS. Although it should technically run fine on Sweet16 or any other emulator.

The regular Mario Bros game for the Apple II needs a numeric keypad to be played properly (I think). Or a gamepad will also work.

I saw it on the Pre-Installed System 6 package when I got my Apple IIGS emulator. It's garbage, really. Physics are wrong, music is horrible (it's not even the SMB theme, the guy on the video changed it to the SMB theme).
