Super Mario: Endless Earth is an open-world 2D Mario game. Explore a gigantic world and attempt to track down Bowser's hidden fortresses to rescue the all-powerful Eternal Star Shards. There are eight objectives, replacing the 'worlds' from previous Mario games, and each one contains a unique fortress level with multiple routes.
Super Mario: Endless Earth has a fully scripted story with opening and closing cutscenes. Bowser has invaded a world hidden within the stars, and it's up to Mario to stop him from using the power the Eternal Star within to cause great calamity. New Super Mario Bros. has been heavily modified into a whole new beast of a game.
Super Mario: Endless Earth - v1.03
-A NSMB Hack by MarioFanatic64-
DISCLAIMER: PIRACY IS A CRIME. I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY PENALTIES FACED FROM ILLEGAL PIRACY. IF YOU DO NOT OWN LEGITIMATE COPIES OF NEW SUPER MARIO BROS. AND A NINTENDO DS SYSTEM, DO NOT PLAY THIS MOD AND DO NOT DOWNLOAD A NEW SUPER MARIO BROS. DS ROM.
--Installation--
This hack runs from the original New Super Mario Bros. DS ROM (The USA version). This means that if you wish to play these mods, you'll need to aqcuire the ROM for New Super Mario Bros. DS from the internet. Due to legal reasons, a direct link to a ROM file cannot be provided, so you'll have to search for it yourself.
You'll know if you have the right file if it is named "0434 - New Super Mario Bros. (U).nds", or something similar.
Once you have obtained the ROM, you'll need the patch file for the mod and xDeltaUI, which is contained in this .zip file. You'll want to extract these from the .zip file so you can use it.
Once you have all this, here are your instructions:
-Run xdeltaUI.exe and for "Source File", select your NSMBDS ROM.
-For "Patch File", select "Endless_Earth_v1.02.xdelta" from the directory you placed it in.
-For "Output File", select an appropriate directory and name your file. The file extension MUST be ".nds", so just name it something simple like "Super Mario Endless Earth - v1.02.nds"
-Click "Patch".
-Your output file should now be modified to play Super Mario: Endless Earth! You'll be able to play it using an emulator or using a Nintendo DS/3DS flashcart.

--Troubleshooting--
-What is a ROM?
A ROM file contains a game- it's the file in the cartridges that your Nintendo DS console runs whenever you play a game. These can be ripped and uploaded to the internet, and there are various ways to run them as they are. You'll be able to play ROMs using an emulator on PC or Android, or on real hardware using a Nintendo DS/3DS flashcart.
-It's not working. What am I doing wrong?
If you don't know what you're supposed to be doing, patching and playing Super Mario Endless Earth may be difficult. If you need more information about ROMs, emulators or flashcarts there is a lot of information to read on Google.
-I found an error. What do I do?
Don't worry, errors happen. Every now and then, you might encounter something weird in the hack like missing sound effects, or something that doesn't seem to be working right. If you want something done about it, report the error on Discord.
https://discord.gg/hef42p3
If errors are fixed, a new revision of the mod will be released. Just check for an update on Discord every now and then to keep up with the latest fixes.
-Is this a virus/some sort of scam?
Don't worry, this isn't harmful. You may have to be cautious of the websites where you download the New Super Mario Bros. DS ROM, but this hack itself is perfectly fine and risk free. It's 100% free to play and download, so if you did pay money to download this file you have been scammed and I urge you to do something about it! Remember, you should only have downloaded this hack from the OFFICIAL SOURCES such as nsmbhd.net, romhacking.net and mfgg.net.
-Can I get in legal trouble if I play this hack?
As long as you currently own a legitimate copy of New Super Mario Bros. DS and a Nintendo DS system, you should have nothing to worry about. I do not condone Video Game Piracy, this is a not-for-profit fanmade project. However, use this at your own risk as this is a legal grey area and laws are subjective depending on your region.
