Kamikaze Mario DX+ by 79
version 1.82 
Released 2004 November 25


Kamikaze Mario DX+ is the final hack released by 79, one of the great Japanese 
SMB hackers of the early 2000s.  This hack features graphic changes, new power 
ups, and all enemies are changed to either bullet bills or piranha plants. 
There are many secrets and puzzles, including 5 hidden worlds.  This "DX+" 
version has 4 more worlds than the previous "DX" version.

Unfortunately the original DX+ rom does not work properly on modern emulators or 
real hardware due to some mapper implementation issues.  This release includes a 
rom which fixes that issue.  The original game also features a Mario sprite 
which is not wearing any pants.  There is an optional "with pants" rom included 
for those who'd rather not know Mario quite that well.  The sprites have been 
modified as little as possible to retain the original look.


There are three patch files included in this package:
