* [[Qi Sheng Long]] produced their own variants of numerous Inventor hacks; often with different titles, and occasionally entirely different graphic sets. Some games appear to only exist in Qi Sheng Long form.
* There are many "alternate" versions of preexisting Inventor hacks that only modify the music and colors; these have not been documented here.
 
  +
** Qi Sheng Long generally copyrighted the multicart menus themselves rather than the individual games. Because of this, the Qi Sheng Long hacks originally only appeared on two systems: the ''[[N-Joypad]]'' and the ''Vs. Maxx Maxxplay'' (95-in-1), alongside several regional variants of said consoles. Beginning in the mid-2010s, however, the Qi Sheng Long hacks began occasionally appearing on new plug & plays.
  +
** The Qi Sheng Long hacks seem to have game titles indicative of a better grasp on the English language, resulting in many pun-like names (e.g. renaming ''Donkey Kong'' to "What's Up") and uses of alliteration (e.g. "Down Deep", "Bird Brain").
  +
* In 2022, a company known as [[Timemax]] registered (potentially illegitimate) copyright to various Famiclone plug & play games, many of which are Inventor (or Inventor-like) hacks.<ref>https://museum.12bit.club/Timemax</ref> Some hacks are only known to exist in Timemax form; despite that the hacks themselves were likely created 20+ years prior. Timemax also developed versions of preexisting Inventor hacks that utilize a vibration motor, built into the game console or its controller.
  +
** Currently, only one console is known to actually use the Timemax library: the Subor Q6, a Chinese handheld released in late 2023.
  +
* A very similar set of hacks was created by [[Cube Technology]], with their titles occasionally being mixed with the Inventor hacks in multicarts. For more information on these games, see [[Cube Technology/List of hacks#VT02 games, original hacks|Cube Technology/List of hacks (VT02 games)]].
  +
* There are many "alternate" versions of preexisting Inventor hacks that only modify the music and colors (many of which were created by Cube Tech); these have not been documented here.
  +
** Several color variations are actually conversions to VT01 hardware, an uncommon type of Famiclone that uses less colors than the standard NES. In reality, the colors ''weren't'' supposed to be different, but rather were adjusted to suit VT01's limitations.
 
* Most, if not all "Advanced" hacks change the graphics, remove all sound effects, and/or replace all music tracks with a single new track.
 
* Most, if not all "Advanced" hacks change the graphics, remove all sound effects, and/or replace all music tracks with a single new track.
  +
* Several of Inventor's hacks were based on already existing [[Funtime]] "Y2K" hacks (ex: ''Conte Enegy'' and ''Penguin'' are reworked from ''Turtles'' and ''Milk Nuts II''). The Y2K series was likely not Inventor-developed, however, as there is no direct connection between the two companies.
  +
* Also, They are hacks of some of these games that were made by forgetusername from the fan-made multicarts called 64 in 1 Classic Player and 86 in 1 Classic Player Deluxe which are Inventor-Like Hacks that are very similar to Inventor's Hacks with some of them having the music corrupted but most of them have the music intact and these hacks were not actually made by Inventor.
  +
* Also, most of the hacks made by Inventor stars various fictional characters from Movies and TV Shows Along with Cartoons and even from other video game franchises such as Shrek, The Teletubbies, Pikachu, Harry Potter, Honey from Bomberman, Doraemon, Milon from Milon's Secret Castle, Hosuke from Mitsume Ga Tooru (The Three-Eyed One), Mappy, Charmander, Starmie, Bubby from Rainbow Islands, Lode Runner, Bomberman, The Incredible Hulk, Ninja-kun and even Gurin and Malon from Binary Land.

|''Pka Chu'' and ''Pocket Maero'' star Pikachu, while ''Super Shrek Bros.'' features Shrek.<br >Every single hack, with the exception of ''Super Shrek Bros.'', is an advanced hack that completely replaces all the music. This music is often comprised of renditions of classical pieces; for example, ''Mushroom'' and at least one version of ''Frog Prince'' and even Telebaby/Teletubb and also Game Mars of JJ play Glenn Miller's famous song "In the Mood", and certain versions of ''Pandamar'' or ''Frog Prince'' play "Hello! Ma Baby".<br />''Super Boy'' has no connection to (and should not be confused with) [[Zemina]]'s series of unlicensed ''Super Mario''-style 8-bit platformers. Super Boy has only been found on the Family Pocket, a Lexibook plug-n-play and the Subor Q6.<br />''Super Shrek Bros.'' is based off of the PAL version, causing it to play at a faster speed than normal. It's also the only hack that does not alter the music.<br />Most versions have the level select unlocked by default.<br />''Impossible Panda'' is based off of another ''Super Mario Bros.'' hack of unknown origin called ''Super Mario Bros Frustration'', but uses the graphics, music and sound effects from ''Pandamar''.<br />All hacks significantly alter the sprites of the mushroom retainers. In most hacks, Princess Toadstool is intact, but is strangely colored; however, ''Super Shrek Bros.'' alters her sprite. In most hacks, all of the enemies are completely changed; though the Hammer Bros are unchanged in ''Pandamar'' (save for being miscolored). Most hacks significantly alter Bowser's sprite, but it remains largely unchanged in ''Frog Prince''.<br />Strangely, Shrek's small sprite in ''Super Shrek Bros.'' resembles Mike Wazowski from ''Monsters, Inc.''<br />Game Mars of JJ is a Pandamar-based hack created for an early 2020s handheld device. "JJ" is a chicken character wearing sunglasses, and he both replaces Mario and is the shape of the physical console itself. In Telebaby/Teletubb, Mario's mushroom-powered sprite is replaced with Dipsy from ''Teletubbies''; all other graphics, including Mario's "small" form, are reused from the ''Mushroom'' hack. The overworld theme that plays in Super Boy is the same music from Anti SARS. There are even some versions of Pandamar, Pka Chu/Pocket Maero and Frog Prince that keep the music intact along with versions featuring Mario with the music and sound effects from Pandamar. One version of Pika Man stars Starmie instead of Pikachu who appears in the other versions of Pika Man. Super Kid features the graphics from Super Mario Bros. 2: The Lost Levels, TNT, The diamonds from Wacky Races and Super Boy with the music and sound effects from Pandamar and Princess Toadstool has been replaced with a Anime girl.
 
Impossible Panda is possibly based off of a fanmade Kaizo hack.

These hacks usually change most/all of the graphics, and may modify the music slightly. Later hacks fully replaced the music with brand-new tracks. Inventor is only explicitly credited in a small number of these, so the extent of its involvement is unknown. Some more notes about the listing:

  • Any games with extensive amounts of Japanese text have been translated into (mostly broken) English.
  • Sometimes the music cues are swapped around, other times they are completely corrupted, possibly to either intentionally hide copyright (badly), or as a side effect of hacking the game.
  • Many games feature a specific, generic character who resembles a cute-ified Ninja Turtle. For consistency, it will be referred to as "Conte" in the listing (after the game "Conte Enegy").
  • Qi Sheng Long produced their own variants of numerous Inventor hacks; often with different titles, and occasionally entirely different graphic sets. Some games appear to only exist in Qi Sheng Long form.
    • Qi Sheng Long generally copyrighted the multicart menus themselves rather than the individual games. Because of this, the Qi Sheng Long hacks originally only appeared on two systems: the N-Joypad and the Vs. Maxx Maxxplay (95-in-1), alongside several regional variants of said consoles. Beginning in the mid-2010s, however, the Qi Sheng Long hacks began occasionally appearing on new plug & plays.
    • The Qi Sheng Long hacks seem to have game titles indicative of a better grasp on the English language, resulting in many pun-like names (e.g. renaming Donkey Kong to "What's Up") and uses of alliteration (e.g. "Down Deep", "Bird Brain").
  • In 2022, a company known as Timemax registered (potentially illegitimate) copyright to various Famiclone plug & play games, many of which are Inventor (or Inventor-like) hacks.[1] Some hacks are only known to exist in Timemax form; despite that the hacks themselves were likely created 20+ years prior. Timemax also developed versions of preexisting Inventor hacks that utilize a vibration motor, built into the game console or its controller.
    • Currently, only one console is known to actually use the Timemax library: the Subor Q6, a Chinese handheld released in late 2023.
  • A very similar set of hacks was created by Cube Technology, with their titles occasionally being mixed with the Inventor hacks in multicarts. For more information on these games, see Cube Technology/List of hacks (VT02 games).
  • There are many "alternate" versions of preexisting Inventor hacks that only modify the music and colors (many of which were created by Cube Tech); these have not been documented here.
    • Several color variations are actually conversions to VT01 hardware, an uncommon type of Famiclone that uses less colors than the standard NES. In reality, the colors weren't supposed to be different, but rather were adjusted to suit VT01's limitations.
  • Most, if not all "Advanced" hacks change the graphics, remove all sound effects, and/or replace all music tracks with a single new track.
  • Several of Inventor's hacks were based on already existing Funtime "Y2K" hacks (ex: Conte Enegy and Penguin are reworked from Turtles and Milk Nuts II). The Y2K series was likely not Inventor-developed, however, as there is no direct connection between the two companies.
  • Also, They are hacks of some of these games that were made by forgetusername from the fan-made multicarts called 64 in 1 Classic Player and 86 in 1 Classic Player Deluxe which are Inventor-Like Hacks that are very similar to Inventor's Hacks with some of them having the music corrupted but most of them have the music intact and these hacks were not actually made by Inventor.
  • Also, most of the hacks made by Inventor stars various fictional characters from Movies and TV Shows Along with Cartoons and even from other video game franchises such as Shrek, The Teletubbies, Pikachu, Harry Potter, Honey from Bomberman, Doraemon, Milon from Milon's Secret Castle, Hosuke from Mitsume Ga Tooru (The Three-Eyed One), Mappy, Charmander, Starmie, Bubby from Rainbow Islands, Lode Runner, Bomberman, The Incredible Hulk, Ninja-kun and even Gurin and Malon from Binary Land.

List of hacks

The Below lists feature the following notation:

  • An asterisk [*] indicates a Qi Sheng Long variant.
  • Two asterisks [**] indicate a game only known to exist in the post-2022 "Timemax" set; some titles may be conjectural.
  • "[a]" indicates an original Shanghai Paradise release, predating the simpler Inventor releases.
  • "[x]" indicates a basic title screen hack of a preexisting Inventor release; the game is otherwise identical to another version.
  • "[z]" indicates a basic title screen hack of a preexisting Famicom/NES game (i.e. not changing the in-game graphics or sounds).

The other Battle City hacks are more basic (though Sea War 2000 is fairly advanced), and stay on one static screen like the original game.
Most, if not all of these hacks are based on the Tank 1990 hack, with the levels slightly modified.

Flee From Home appears in the Timemax set, though is known to have appeared on the "My Life As Arcade Game" system prior to this (under the menu name "Free From Home").

Thunder Bird and Searcher both remove the opening intro with the gong; however, Thunder Bird still plays the intro in full behind its title screen, resulting in the game not starting until ~10 seconds after the Start button is pressed. Pacific Air War has the background music removed.
Circus Charlie Conqueror
Super Elf
Super Elf starts on level 7 (harder version of level 2), and crashes after beating stage 05 results red screen, probably due to programming error.

City Connection City Chase[z]
Goodhand
Road Battle
Street Frenzy*
Based off of the Japanese version. City Chase is a simple title screen hack, but is otherwise unchanged from City Connection.
Most iterations of Goodhand and Street Frenzy erroneously use the same tile for painting over the road, making it almost unplayable; at least one (rare) variation fixes this. Mapper 0 conversion. Cats in Goodhand are replaced with Mappy. Road Battle has The DeLorean from Back to the Future 2 & 3 on the Title Screen.

Based on another hack of Donkey Kong Jr. called Turtles II. Junior is now Conte, Mario is replaced with a sprite edit of the same enemy from Tom & Jerry that was used in Conte Enegy, and Donkey Kong is replaced with Numen from Bruce & Leo, a Tom & Jerry hack.

Double Dragon III: The Sacred Stones (Double Dragon III: The Rosetta Stone) Boxing Circles Overlord Based on the Japanese version. In the intro cutscene and character select screen, Jimmy Lee's face is replaced with Casey Jones's mask from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The dialogue is poorly translated in a humorous way. A level skip cheat is activated by default. The ending is replaced with a rather generic "The End" screen, and it features 3 skulls instead of the sacred stones.
Downtown Nekketsu March Super-Awesome Field Day! Boy Sport Intro is removed. The second in-game menu is skipped. The Referee is replaced with the player character from Frog Prince. Almost any trace of Japanese text is translated into English. Ending is intact, but the text is removed.

Anti SARS[x]
Computer Hospital
Doctor
Make Well*[x]
Dr. Mario himself is replaced with what appears to be an anthropomorphic ant doctor. Most of the music is completely new, except for Chill which is the same as the original.
"Doctor" appears to be the first produced hack, and only replaces the Mario and Virus sprites (leaving everything else intact). The remaining four hacks use the same character graphics as Doctor, in addition to changing the music and background graphics. The order of game creation was likely the following: Doctor, Computer Hospital, Anti SARS, Make Well, Anti COVID-19.
Anti COVID-19 was obviously produced long after the other versions; disturbingly, it replaces the computer with human lungs.
Duck Hunt Anti-Terror Action
Autumn Hunt
Hunt
Invader

Shoot UFO
Shoot UFO 1
Snowfield Shoot

Derby[x]
Extreme Racer*
Risker
Tip Moto

Overlord is an advanced hack.

Exfrome's title screen uses the Joe & Mac font.

Boat Race
Boat Race Pika
Formula 1 Racing
Great Racing
Jet Sprinter[x]
Space Car Racing

Space Car Racing is a back-port of Race One, a JungleTac UM6578 hack of F-1 Race.
Ferrari Grand Prix Challenge (Ferrari) Ultimate Speed

This hack is impossible to complete because the pit road is broken after Round 1. Right after you stop, you go without tire change. This makes tires worn for the entire races. Music is intact.

Field Combat Saucer Wars*
Final Mission (S.C.A.T.) FU-3 Firebolt
Martian[x]
Based on the Japanese version. In the original release of the game, the player character resembles Pikachu.

In Battle, the ship has a smaller movement window than normal (cannot reach left corner), making it very difficult to play.

Championship Golf starts on hole 3. the player character's sprite has been altered to have his mustache shaved off.
Gomoku Narabe Gobang
Right Move*
Gradius Firmanent
Soceo Loier**
When you get the speed-up power, you automatically get the two options (with the "Options" selector being removed from the HUD). Music appears to be made entirely from scratch.
The game has no title screen; most multicart menus title the game "Firmanent", though it has also been seen under the names "Exist" and "Space Combat".
Soceo Loier uses mostly original Gradius graphics but is entirely based on Firmanent.
Guevara (Guerilla War) Bolide The game is based on the Japanese version, but the cutscene text is translated into English in a humorous manner. The SNK copyright is intact in most versions. Che Guevara himself now appears to be (and is described as) some sort of clean-shaven generic biker character, according to the cutscenes.
Gun-Nac Space War[x]
Space War III
Star Wars
Based on the North American version. Level select is unlocked by default. Space War III automatically skips the intro cutscene. Star Wars is unrelated to the well-known franchise of the same name, and was likely changed to Space War later on for copyright reasons.

Hulk
Barve Boy replaces Jackie Chan with a large Pikachu; a girl Pikachu and Mewtwo appear in the opening intro, respectively replacing Jackie Chan's fictional in-game sister and the original game's main antagonist. Inexplicably, the fish enemy is replaced with Donkey Kong Jr.; the ramen bowl enemy is replaced with Jerry from Tom & Jerry. Likely based on Super Bros. 10: Kung Fu Mari.
Hulk is almost identical to Barve Boy, though Pikachu has been changed to what is supposed to be The Incredible Hulk (with very limited resemblance), and the girl Pikachu's face has been altered to look like a human (albeit a different one from Jackie Chan's fictional sister from the original game).
James Bond Jr. Caesar Captain Any mention of James Bond Jr.'s name is intact. The man in the original game who orders James Bond Jr. to infiltrate S.C.U.M.'s base now appears to be Commander Jones from Code Name: Viper.

Kage (Shadow of the Ninja/Blue Shadow) Berserker Appears in the Timemax set, though is known to have appeared on an 120-in-1 "Just Plug 'n Play" system prior to this. Health is infinite, and can only be lost by falling into pits. Hayate is replaced with Lode Runner. Some of the music is corrupted while other tracks remain intact. Cutscene graphics remains unchanged but the intro text has been poorly translated. Credits remain the same as in the original game. Hayate is replaced with Lode Runner and his character select mugshot is reused from Ultimate Speed while Kaede is replaced with Bomberman and her character select mugshot is replaced with an edited version of Casey Jones' VS. Screen mugshot from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters. Another handheld with the Timemax romset uses the original rom without the Timemax copyright.
Karateka Neighborhood Smash* Some of the music is corrupted while other tracks remain intact. The graphics remain unchanged.

Based on another hack of Lode Runner called Turtles. The enemies in Conte Enegy are replaced with sprite edits of one of the enemies from Tom & Jerry, and the player character is changed to Conte. the music in most hacks is corrupted expect in Golder which has the music intact.

Lunar Ball (Lunar Pool) Billiard 2008
Planetary Pool*
Music is heavily corrupted, and has become somewhat infamous for its dismal sounds; some versions completely overhaul the music. One version of Billiard 2008 simply renames it to Billiard.

Speed Rider
Trump Tank
Ballistic Mayhem removes the intermission screens making this game playable only on the A courses. the music is corrupted.

A rare version of Coin Tetris completely overhauls the in-game music; one of the music tracks in this version is a rendition of "Practice Makes Perfect" from Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures.
Change Face Block features particularly bad music, playing literally one note across the entire song; the music stops playing entirely after a few levels.
Magmax Hovercraft*
Mappy Bounce
Break Out*
Mappy is replaced with Ninja-kun from the Ninja JaJaMaru series, and two of the items is replaced with the Fire Flower from Super Mario Bros. and the piece of cheese from Tom & Jerry.
For unknown reasons, Break Out crashes at random intervals on the Vs. Maxx Maxxplay; it does not crash on the N-Joypad. Also, both hacks have the music corrupted.
Many VT02-based consoles erroneously use the VT01 conversion of Bounce.
Mario Bros. Jump and Journey*
Roge Brer (1)
Roge Brer (2)
Rouge[x]
Rouge Brothers
The first version of Roge Brer, along with Rouge and Rouge Brothers, rather poorly modify Mario's sprites; while he is fully redrawn, he is still wearing overalls and a (now backwards) red hat. Inexplicably, Mario's "turning" sprite and his face in the extra lives icon is intact. An uncommon "second" version of Roge Brer replaces Mario with a heavily modified Milon from Milon's Secret Castle.
The first version of Roge Brer does not alter the Shellcreepers; in the second version, they are replaced with something resembling Pac-Man ghosts with hair. In Rouge and Rogue Brothers, they are replaced with Meowkies from Mappy.
Jump and Journey replaces Mario with a man resembling a soldier, and changes his name to Tom.
In all of these hacks, the bottom two pipes are strangely glitched; they can even be hit and "broken", causing them to disappear. the music is corrupted in all hacks.
Metal Max Ji Jia Zhan Shi III Title screen hack of the Chinese-translated Metal Max.
Mighty Bomb Jack unknown hack Still says Mighty Bomb Jack on the title screen; graphics are completely altered otherwise, with the player controlling an angel. Music is intact.

Based on the Japanese version. The intro sequence is skipped automatically, Cody has been changed to somewhat resemble Terry Bogard from SNK’s Fatal Fury/The King of Fighters series, Haggar's portrait resembles Hulk Hogan (although his in-game sprite lacks facial hair), and all of the music is bizarrely off-tune. The character select screen is bizarrely translated in a rather humorous manner, but the rest of the game is left untranslated. The ending and credits are completely intact.
Millipede Surface Fire
Swirl*
Both hacks are based on the Japanese release and have the title screen music changed.
Nekketsu Kakutou Densetsu Super Fighters Playable characters are replaced with Pikachu lookalikes, and the game is translated into English (albeit poorly). the music cues are swapped around.
Nekketsu! Street Basket - Ganbare Dunk Heroes UFO! Basketball Dunk Heroes Both the Technos logo and intro are skipped. Very poorly translated into English, including mistranslating the States (e.g. New York as "Hamlet") and naming one of the characters "KKK". the music cues are swapped around.
Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom (Ninja Ryuukenden III: Yomi no Hakobune) Sheer Nijia III Fittingly enough considering the hack's name, Ryu Hayabusa and various enemies have been graphically altered to become transparent outlines (though Ryu still becomes opaque when he gets hit). Other graphics have been altered as well, and the music appears to be corrupted too.
Ninja Hattori-kun Defiance*
Pocky
Tinytoon
Pocky stars Bubby from Rainbow Islands.
Tinytoon changes the player character to a rabbit; he is presumably meant to be Buster Bunny, but has little actual resemblance to him. There are two variants of Pocky with different color palettes.
Ninja-kun - Majou no Bouken Combata
Ninja Combat[x]
Warrior Chase*[x]
Background is changed to boxes. Music is short, seems to be corrupted and is played after unpausing the game.

Flip Out*
Hoodle
Lucky Ball
Luck Ball (VT03)
Pinball[x]
Pinball Pro[x]
Table layout is changed in Hoodle. Kickbacks do not function here properly, making the ball go down to the drain hole.
Due to faulty memory initialization, Lucky Ball plays the original music from Pinball in some multicarts; despite that it is actually changed in code.
Luck Ball is the only known VT03 Inventor hack; it is possible this is actually a Cube Technology hack based on the Inventor VT02 version(s).
Hoodle and Bounce Ball feature Lode Runners and the Russian dancers from Tetris on the playfeld; Lucky Ball features the monkeys from Circus Charlie, and replaces the big bumpers with Buzzy Beetles from Super Mario Bros. In Bounce Ball and Lucky Ball, Pauline is replaced with Circus Charlie.
Some plug-'n-plays are supposed to have Hoodle included in them, but strangely feature the original Pinball instead.

Some versions feature a screen reading "BBG"—an alias (?) of Inventor—upon completing the game.
The skiing variants use modified character sprites from the Slalom NES game. Rallye features billboards that have the Coca-Cola logo on them.
Raid on Bungeling Bay Bomb Helicopter[z]

Helicopter Harry*
G-3 Cobra of Sky is rather advanced—few sound and music cues are changed, player controls a bomber plane instead of helicopter and the game itself seems to be set in space.

The music is redone from scratch.
The first version of World Cup 2000 features human players with something resembling devil horns on their heads. The second "2000" revision is another rabbit version.
Football, and the first version titled Soccer, use human players with hats; they feature corrupted music and no sound effects. Oddly, the scoreboard is removed. The second "Soccer" revision is similar to the rabbit versions, but the player sprites are unaltered from the original game.

Every single hack, with the exception of Super Shrek Bros., is an advanced hack that completely replaces all the music. This music is often comprised of renditions of classical pieces; for example, Mushroom and at least one version of Frog Prince and even Telebaby/Teletubb and also Game Mars of JJ play Glenn Miller's famous song "In the Mood", and certain versions of Pandamar or Frog Prince play "Hello! Ma Baby".
Super Boy has no connection to (and should not be confused with) Zemina's series of unlicensed Super Mario-style 8-bit platformers. Super Boy has only been found on the Family Pocket, a Lexibook plug-n-play and the Subor Q6.
Super Shrek Bros. is based off of the PAL version, causing it to play at a faster speed than normal. It's also the only hack that does not alter the music.
Most versions have the level select unlocked by default.
Impossible Panda is based off of another Super Mario Bros. hack of unknown origin called Super Mario Bros Frustration, but uses the graphics, music and sound effects from Pandamar.
All hacks significantly alter the sprites of the mushroom retainers. In most hacks, Princess Toadstool is intact, but is strangely colored; however, Super Shrek Bros. alters her sprite. In most hacks, all of the enemies are completely changed; though the Hammer Bros are unchanged in Pandamar (save for being miscolored). Most hacks significantly alter Bowser's sprite, but it remains largely unchanged in Frog Prince.
Strangely, Shrek's small sprite in Super Shrek Bros. resembles Mike Wazowski from Monsters, Inc.
Game Mars of JJ is a Pandamar-based hack created for an early 2020s handheld device. "JJ" is a chicken character wearing sunglasses, and he both replaces Mario and is the shape of the physical console itself. In Telebaby/Teletubb, Mario's mushroom-powered sprite is replaced with Dipsy from Teletubbies; all other graphics, including Mario's "small" form, are reused from the Mushroom hack. The overworld theme that plays in Super Boy is the same music from Anti SARS. There are even some versions of Pandamar, Pka Chu/Pocket Maero and Frog Prince that keep the music intact along with versions featuring Mario with the music and sound effects from Pandamar. One version of Pika Man stars Starmie instead of Pikachu who appears in the other versions of Pika Man. Super Kid features the graphics from Super Mario Bros. 2: The Lost Levels, TNT, The diamonds from Wacky Races and Super Boy with the music and sound effects from Pandamar and Princess Toadstool has been replaced with a Anime girl.

The second version features a layout much closer to the original game; Mario is replaced with a snail, and two sprites of the Adventure Island protagonist Master Higgins appear on the lefthand side. Both versions change the (originally male) players to be wearing skirts, with the "first" version also giving them pigtails.
Super Tennis is nearly identical to the second Tennis revision, but adds a third Master Higgins in place of Mario/the snail.
