Interesting video, even though SMB obviously isn't designed with Kinect in mind, it seemed to be reading your movements pretty well, though you did keep pausing by accident. It's cool how you can play games like that, if I was gonna choose between the Kinect and PS Move I'd definitely opt for the Kinect since it's less of a Wii clone. What are your thoughts on the Kinect itself?
@TheVideoGameJunkie99 The Kinect is a very cool and innovative device. Lots of possibilities for it. I haven't been impressed though with what the game development community has produced for it so far - but hopefully we'll see some impressive games soon. I can see it revolutionizing how we interact with computers - much like the mouse when it was first developed.
Oh Jesus Christ... He's part of the blueman group.. or Aqua in his case, no wonder he hides his face from cam. LOL. This is definitely an odd experiment on new ways to play a game.. tho be temping to try on a Friday night with a bottle of vodka and some friends. This or Pac Attack... the weird cross Japanese breed of pac man and Tetris.
How did you get the idea to do this? You did great man! I laughed through this entire video. I love how you kept pausing it on accident. I have to say, this technology is very cool.
@vintagevideogamegeek There are others out there that have made the Kinect work for Warcraft and a few other PC games. Not much out there for console stuff, as it's a PC-centric hack. I, of course, took it to the next level by playing old school games with it. Next on my list is Advanced Dungeons & Dragons for the Intellivision (LOL). It is very cool technology - can't wait to see more of it in the future.
I see you're playing the PAL version. I don't suppose you know of a place to find a working copy of the US version? Every one I've found has had problems (header issues, I believe), and the PAL version is annoying as hell. The FDS version is fine, but you have to wait through the stupid startup screens.
Aw, screw it. DopeRoms doesn't let you link to specific pages, it seems. Just type the file name into the search box at the top: "Super Mario Bros. (JU) (PRG0) [!].zip" (no quotes)
@AutobotBlurr Thanks. It's very difficult to play though. I originally had it set up so Mario jumps when I jump, but that was exhausting so I changed it to have him jump when I lifted my left leg.
is it possible to set the jump to an actual jump!

This is as pointless as the Kinect itself. If you are just going to map buttons to body movement might as well you make a new game

@onpon4 Sorry, it was tough enough finding the PAL rom because there is like 8 trillion SMB hacked roms out there.

@dommiesan Oh, well. I know what you mean, having tried to find the US version. At least there's the FDS version to lean on. :)

@dommiesan I've found one! It's on DopeRoms, on this page:
doperoms.com/roms/Nintendo_Nes/S/1100.html
The file is called "Super Mario Bros. (JU) (PRG0) [!].zip".
