Kart Fighter (Chinese: 瑪莉快打; pinyin: Mǎ lì kuài dǎ, 'Mario Fighter') is an unlicensed2Dfighting game produced for the Nintendo Famicom by Taiwanese studio Hummer Team. The game features unauthorized appearances by Nintendo's mascot Mario and the rest of the cast of Super Mario Kart in a port of Street Fighter II. Kart Fighter has received some media attention, including mostly positive reviews, in part because of its perceived similarity to the later Super Smash Bros. series.
Gameplay[edit]
Kart Fighter follows many of the rules and conventions already established for the fighting game genre by the time of its release. The player engages opponents in one-on-one close quarter combat. The object of each round is to deplete the opponent's vitality before the timer runs out. Because it is an adaptation of Street Fighter II,[1][2] the game controls resemble those of the Street Fighter series. The player uses the D-pad to move the character towards or away from the opponent or to jump. The A and B buttons perform punches and kicks, as well as jump punches and jump kicks when combined with movement. Additionally, each character has a selection of special moves performed by inputting a combination of directional and button-based commands. Unlike Street Fighter II, nearly all characters have some form of projectile attack available as a special move,[1] but the blocking system is more limited.[3]
Five difficulty levels are available for solo play.[4] A second player can also select a character, allowing for two-player matches. However, because no indication of this feature appears in game,[3] it can be easily overlooked.[5]
Characters[edit]
All eight playable characters from Super Mario Kart appear in Kart Fighter, although several have been renamed or are Japanese versions of names– Mari (Mario), Luigi, Peach (Princess Toadstool), Yossy (Yoshi), Kupa (Bowser), Donkey (Donkey Kong Jr.), Nokonoko (Koopa Troopa), and Kinopio (Toad).[1][6] Many of the characters' appearances are closely adapted from Super Mario Kart sprites, although they are not to scale. However, Donkey Kong Jr. has a substantially different appearance and Princess Peach appears in a miniskirt and boots, similar to Chun-Li from the highly praised Street Fighter II.[3][7]
Development[edit]
During the 1980s and 1990s, production of pirateFamicom games in East Asia was commonplace, aided by the Famicom's absence of the 10NESlockout chip included in North American versions of the Nintendo Entertainment System.[8] The commercial success of Street Fighter II made it a particularly frequent choice for unauthorized ports and adaptations.[2]Kart Fighter was one such game, developed by a team known as Hummer Team or Gouder, and published by Hong Kong-based Ge De Industry, probably in 1993.[5][9]
Kart Fighter used character models from the 1992 Super FamicomSuper Mario Kart. The use of art from a 16-bit platform on the 8-bit Famicom presented technical challenges, because sprites on the less powerful console were limited to four colors. The Kart Fighter developers overcame this limitation by assembling the characters from several smaller sprites, which move together to give the appearance of a single object.[2] Art resources from other games were also pirated, including a stage background taken from Little Nemo: The Dream Master.[5]
The same development team responsible for Kart Fighter also created other unauthorized Street Fighter II adaptations. One such game was included on the 1998 Super HIK 4 in 1 12Mmulticart,[5] in which Mario appeared alongside characters from the Street Fighter franchise.[10] The developers also moddedKart Fighter itself to produce the Sailor Moon-themed AV Bishoujo Senshi Girl Fighting.[9][11]
Legacy[edit]
Several years after its release, Kart Fighter received critical attention for its similarities to the Super Smash Bros. series.[6] Reviews were generally positive, especially in the context of fighting games on the NES[1] or unauthorized NES games,[2] categories viewed as having typically poor quality. Reviews cited its originality,[2] music,[5] and relative lack of bugs,[3] with several considering it one of the best unauthorized games of its era,[5][7] meeting or exceeding the quality of similar licensed games such as TMNT: Tournament Fighters.[1][2]
However, Complex considered Kart Fighter the worst fighting game ever made.[12] Other reviewers remarked negatively on the screen flicker resulting from the game's sprite system,[2][3] poor AI,[3] missing menu options, and lack of a proper ending.[5]

Developer: Hummer Team This game has unused playable characters. |
Kart Fighter combines the character design and engine of Street Fighter II (or at least the engine of its NES bootlegs) with the characters, opening screen, and some music of Super Mario Kart, resulting in possibly the best bootleg fighting game in existence. Each character has their own 'home stage' and appropriate special moves (Mario and Luigi shoot fireballs, Koopa Troopa attacks by getting into his shell, etc.).
It's a solid concept - after all, who wouldn't want to see (or have) Luigi punch Mario in the face or Peach knock Bowser down for the count or..

Master Fighter VI' and Mortal Kombat II Leftover Characters
The game has about 12 actual characters, but the last 4 are obviously inaccessible. This is due to the fact that Kart Fighter was built off of Mortal Kombat II which in turn was built off of Master Fighter VI'. Master Fighter VI' had a roster of 12 characters (not including duplicates). While some of the data for the last four appears to be tampered with, it was never removed and contains some minor references to the previously-mentioned game. These can be accessed either through changing addresses 00B0 for Player 1 and 00B1 for Player 2. Alternatively, before a match starts you can change 007B for Player 1 and 007C for Player 2. The latter method will load the proper palette and stage for the match. You can also access alternate palettes this way by taking the original value and adding 0C to it.
'Skang-Tsung' (Shang Tsung) Leftover
Value: 08
Shares the same value as Shang Tsung in Hummer Team's Mortal Kombat II. Like Shang Tsung, his only move in the game is a fireball (Down, Forward, A) which appears as a mess of two tiles; the same length as Shang Tsung's fireball. However, he does not have the ability to transform and as seen above, only uses Mario's sprites. His first player palette seems to be based off of Toad's second player palette. Using the second address in the second method starts the match on Yoshi's stage.
Balrog, E.Honda, and Ken Leftovers
Values: 09, 0A, 0B
Even though they appear to be Toad with his second player palette using the same moves, their commands are based on the aforementioned characters that appear in Master Fighter VI', complete with the same distance requirements to perform them. However, 0B uses Yoshi's move commands; this is because Ken's special command list referred to Ryu's in Master Fighter VI' and Yoshi takes his spot. 09 uses Toad's stage, 0A uses Yoshi's stage, and 0B uses Koopa's and Bowser's stage.
Endurance Matches
Before a match begins, change address 0058 to a non-zero value below 0B to re-enable Endurance Matches, a leftover from Hummer Team's Mortal Kombat II. Defeating the opponent will result in the opponent getting replaced by whichever character represents which value.
Unused Graphics
Common
Every character has a sprite for when they get hit while crouching. In-game, you're forced to stand if you get hit while crouching, meaning that all these sprites go unused.
Everyone's jumping punch animation only has one unique frame, but there's a startup frame for everyone in the ROM. Some interesting things to note:
- One of Toad's jump sprites is actually based off of his jumping punch startup sprite. The graphic banks contain the tiles for the jumping punch startup sprite and the few tiles after it replaces some of this sprite's tiles to create the jumping sprite.
- Yoshi has two of these sprites, with the latter one being a tileswap of the former. It's possible one of them could be related to his unused alternate jumping punch (see below).
Effects for what looks like a projectile making contact. Only Peach, Donkey Kong Jr., and Bowser seem to contain these. In-game, projectiles will just vanish on contact with a fighter and will just pass through each other. For some reason, Peach's sprite is found in two of her graphic banks.
Mari (Mario) and Luigi
The first four graphic banks for Mario are completely unused: they're tiles for Mario's stance, walking animation, blocking sprites, getting hit sprites, dizzy animation, and one of his jump sprites. These reappear a bit later but correctly flipped so Mario's facing to the right (like the rest of the sprites), whereas the unused ones are facing left. While these graphic banks appear first, they all appear to be the same (but flipped around obviously) with the exception of one of his dizzy sprites. This dizzy sprite's hat is more like the rest of Mario's sprites, whereas the one used in-game looks much flatter. This was likely due to the fact that in the graphic banks that did get used, a star was included for when Mario becomes dizzy and ended up replacing one of the hat tiles, thus requiring his hat to be redrawn. This also suggests earlier in development that the star circling around the fighter's head was not yet considered.
An alternate crouching kick for Mario. In-game, his crouching kick sprite is the same as his jumping kick and his flying kick special. Interestingly, all the sprites that use the same torso tiles are in the same graphic bank (including the unused jump punch sprite) and they just replace the bottom-half tiles on this sprite.
Nokonoko (Koopa Troopa)
Koopa hiding in his shell, unknown purpose. In-game, he uses different sprites for his shell attack.
Koopa partially withdrawn into his shell and curled up in a ball. It could've been used for a possible special attack in the same manner as Blanka's ball attack.
Unused startup animations for Koopa's basic attacks. These look like they could work for his standing punch and his standing kick.
Kinopio (Toad)
Toad performing an upwards kick while facing upwards. Possibly intended as a special move.
It's unknown what this could've been used for. It could be a sprite intended for Toad's upwards kick, but the expression on his face implies this could have also been an unused hit sprite.
Two attack startup frames for Toad. The first appears to be for a jumping punch, but Toad attacks with his right hand in-game.
Yossy (Yoshi)
A jumping punch sprite where Yoshi throws a punch at a different angle. The used jumping punch appears to be the original sprite, while this sprite reuses tiles from it.
Possibly additional frames for his tail special attack. In-game, Yoshi just instantly turns around and wiggles his tail while moving forward.
Peach
Peach appears to only have one sprite for when she wins a round, and selecting her has her switch between her standing sprite and her win sprite. However, she has a second win sprite that goes completely unused.
Peach has a graphics bank for not only a duplicate of the unused exploding projectile but what appears to be a spinning effect. These might have been intended for her spin attack. The first sprite is rather odd: not only does its tiles suggest that its tiles are mirrored but there appears to be blank tiles mixed in, suggesting the sprite isn't complete.
Donkey (Donkey Kong Jr.)
Unused sprites for an alternate throw or a special command grab. Donkey Kong Jr.'s first throw sprite was mixed in with these, suggesting it was once part of this attack.
Koopa (Bowser)
Bowser was supposed to use a different sprite during his standing kick. The game instead reuses a sprite from his jump punch.
An earlier version of Bowser lying down on his back.
Sprites for a ball attack for Bowser: a start-up frame, a ball frame, and possibly two recovery frames. This is a bit similar to Koopa's unused ball attack sprite, but Koopa appears to lack additional frames.
Misc.

Oddities
Some characters contain some odd move commands that have remained since Hummer Team's Street Fighter II and Master Fighter VI'. Some of them may have been forgotten, and as a result performing these can lead to some characters doing strange things. They can all be accessed in-game. None of these were ever properly taken out until Mortal Kombat II's revision of the engine.
- Mario - While doing a straight jump, pressing Down + A while rising will cause Mario to jump forward and perform a jumping kick. However, he will only land a few pixels above ground and the game will still think he's in mid-air. This is a remnant of a possibly unfinished implementation of Dhalsim's Yoga Mummy which is done in the same manner. (Possibly Chun-Li's stomp as well from the Street Fighter II port except neither Dhalsim or Mario can do it during a forwards or a backwards jump.) Mario, Dhalsim, and Chun-Li are all under 01 in their games.
- Koopa - Pressing Down and A while next to the opponent causes Koopa to walk forward making a sound effect. This command was carried over from the Street Fighter II port where Zangief's crouch grab was performed this way. Both Koopa and Zangief are under 03 in their games. Sometimes the AI can be seen performing this strange walk in Round 2, possibly as a result of the AI trying to fire off a projectile when required even though Koopa has no projectile attack.
- Peach - Pressing Back and B will make Peach whip her hair as an attack. While this is the intended special move for her and it's rather easy to perform, the odd part is this has its own special move command: Back, Down, B. The simpler move command was likely from either Stalong's hopping kick from Street Fighter IV or Guile's odd glitch kick from Master Fighter VI'. Peach, Stalong, and Guile are all under 04 in their games. Guile in the Street Fighter II port can perform the Reverse Spin Kick with the same command, but he needs to be close to the opponent and he doesn't use the same value, suggesting his code was shifted over and edited for either Street Fighter IV or Master Fighter VI'.
