List of Mario knockoffs officially acknowledged by Nintendo
Due to the popularity of the Mario series, several smaller companies over the years who went against Nintendo have created several ripoffs, or bootlegs, that imitate games and other merchandise from the Mario series.
The Great Giana Sisters
Released in 1987 on the Commodore 64, The Great Giana Sisters was published by German game developer Rainbow Arts. It features a girl named Giana, who finds herself in a world full of monsters after mysteriously falling asleep. The player must travel through the world, searching for a hidden diamond which will awake Giana.
The game recieved almost immediate attention from players, (and later the video game industry) due to the game's levels being extremely similar to that of Super Mario Bros. In fact, the game's first level is nearly identical to that of Super Mario Bros, and so are the game's elements (mushrooms with eyes and horns, as well as yellow blocks (resembling ? Blocks and Goombas respectively) ) , and gameplay throughout Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag. Nintendo did not take legal action with the game's developers, but gave them a warning of it. Copies of the game were withdrawn from sale, and it still remains a collector's item to this day. Later, in 2009, a sequel called Giana Sisters DS [1] was released in Europe, and later North America. This game, however, received no copyright claims from Nintendo and had an overall good reception.
Mole Kart
Mole Kart is an iOS game developed and published by Chinese company Shanghai Shengran Information Technology. It was available on the App Store for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Players have the choice of several characters from the Mole Man series, but only one kart.
The game was first released on the App Store for iOS devices in early 2012, though it was soon removed by Apple due to a copyright claim from Nintendo, who had it pulled [2] due to gameplay trailers that looked nearly identical to the Mario Kart series. [3]
Mole Kart, however, was re-released on iOS, in May of that year, under a new title (Mole Kart I)
Era's Adventure's 3D
Era's Adventure 3D was a mobile game released on the Marketplace for Android phones, developed by An-Dev[4]. The game features a green dinosaur named Era, who looks almost exactly like Yoshi, whom the player must use to shoot flaming mucus at objects such as boxes and crates. The gameplay is extremely basic, with no maps or levels whatsoever[5], and its main element is the use of the Yoshi look-alike character. Era's Adventure was released in late February 2013, and Nintendo took legal action only two weeks later. Although the game itself was not pulled from the marketplace, the game's trailer was. Botond Kopaz, who was largely involved with the development of Era's Adventure stated that "he was not a fan of the Super Mario series and had no knowledge on the Yoshi character[6].
