Nintendo makes peace with the makers of one of Super Mario Brother's biggest ripoffs - 12-09-08

Have you ever heard of the Great Giana Sisters? Best...ripoff...ever. Well, I haven't played the original late 80's Atari or Amiga version, but a little emulator can take you a long way.

The great counterfeit was made in 1987 by one programmer Armin Gessert and published by Rainbow...

Re: Nintendo makes peace with the makers of one of Super Mario Brother's biggest ripo

If you ask me, I'm going to have to say that...the first game looks like it really was a ripoff to Super Mario Bros., and this new one looks a lot like...a Sonic game. C'mon, remember those fish that attacked you by jumping up from water under bridges in Sonic the Hedgehog 2? That background also sort of looks like Angel Island Zone, the first zone in Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

The Super Mario Brothers are always going to be the best. No one, except God, can take them down or take their place as the greatest.

HELL NO.

I'm more confused as to why in the world would Nintendo lower themselves to giving the creators of...That thing, a license.

Whats worse is that they DARE challenge Mario bros with their BS ripoff...Please.

I'm guessing that Nintendo figured that this game is no threat to the Mario bros. any more so they decided to let them have a shot at ... well lets just say trying to sell.
Besides, since the game is already made or whatever wont Nintendo just profit in the end even though it would be a tiny one??

LOL in the pic, they look like guys
:rofl:
