[PSP HomeBrew] Mario Kart

[Dunnow]

Yeah, i know but i allready give it credits (read the credits!)
I'll will work on it, and i will make more lvls, and maybe signed!

you're still using them WITHOUT nintendo's permission... give credits means NOTHING when using a registred & copyright names/brands/ideas/chars/all ... if there's a mario or something that looks rlly close to him it's illegal... so... change at leat the chars

illegal?

Everything is now illegal?
Because i didn't ask nintendo permission?

Lets hear about this:

Did Total_Noob ask he may hack 6.20 to sony? i dont think so!
So why harsh if you're useing alot of illegal thinks and say that its my fault because i just released a simple homebrew! And then this, its my first homebrew i ever made!

Go bring your **** to some1 else because he maybe put a pokemon in his/her homebrew
Like it or not!

You can play or not....
People who liked it: Thanks
People who hated it: I don't care....

Maybe you liked it but hated it because i didnt ask nintendo..... Think about that

Doesn't matter what you think, if this is illegal your homebrew won't be allowed in the contest..

i am not a judge, but lets be realistic. would nintendo ever give anyone permission to use anything related to mario in a homebrew game for a hacked psp? lolno. so, should that keep people from making quality homebrew games? should that keep this guy from entering the competition? i guess that will be up to the judges to decide

btw, there have been a couple of mario homebrew games (as well as many others, like zelda, pokemon, etc.) that have been released in the past and i didnt see anyone crying foul over those:

http://www.racketboy.com/retro/2006/02/ ... esome.html

seems to me that you guys are being a little too harsh. imo there is a difference between "illegal content" and a mario sprite that can be found plastered all over the internet, so pls keep your flaming to yourselves until the judges rule. kthx.

note: i have not tested this homebrew, so idk exactly what it contains, im just going by the posts in this thread.

Pretty much Hacked PSPs in general are illegal, but that doesn't stop people from obtaining them, or hacking it themselves.
And This is a competition where there is money at stake which makes submitting your homebrew(Which is mario which belongs to nintendo) pretty risky. I love Mario homebrews, but lets see what the judges say. I wish the bar could be dropped a bit to allow for their favorite games to be made.

And What about NZp, the most popular PSP homebrew right now. They already said they were entering and there isn't any fussing going on, and they didn't ask the COD developers if they could make it either. What about Revamped, which is unmistakeably Halo for PSP. It just contains a few original gimmicks and name changes. It seems to be still allowed.

Can we get some clarification?

Not completely sure but...

6.20 wasnt illegal because it was considered "Homebrew". Since the PSP belongs to you, you can
do whatever you want with it. The problem is the isoloaders etc. that pring pirated games into this
which makes that part of it illegal. If your mario sprites are ripped straight from the game, its considered
illegal but if you made them yourself, you should be fine, as long as the title isnt mario.

TBH, i like Wagic more than NZP. The reason the could make NZP without any lawsuits was because the didnt
use "CoD" or "Call of Duty" in their title. And also, the models are made themselves.

Ok, locked.

Plain and simple, you can't use the Mario trademark, BUT, let's say you don't call it Mario. Let's say you call it something else. And you edit things such that they don't recognize certain trademarks so unmistably. Do you follow me? Change the name, and don't use Mario / Luigi / other Nintendo characters names, as plain and simple BECAUSE this is a competition and there is money involved this could cause a problem. I understand a lot of the arguments made in this thread, but "Mario Kart PSP" plain and simple we KNOW Nintendo would not give permission.

To the author, PM me (npt) or Wololo and we can discuss ways to make this enterable. This is nothing against you, I like the game, but as for allowing entered under this name and with Mario and koopa stuff in it... anyway, pm one of us.

Until then this is locked.
