I've always found this funny since there were home PC releases of Mario games. So Nintendo was at one point not opposed to that sort of thing, and the ports that did come out were atrocious. The alternate timeline where Nintendo games come out on PC and use idTech has to be a strange one.

- kiritanpo 3y agoThey are all educational games of middling quality released in the first half of the 90s. Released for DOS, Mac and Windows. Some of the most known: * Mario Teaches Typing * Super Mario Bros. Print World * Mario is Missing! (also released on SNES) * Mario's Time Machine (also released on SNES) * Mario's Early Years! Fun with Letters There are also (bad) Donkey Kong ports for home computers of the 80s such as Atari 800XL, IBM DOS, VIC-20, Commodore 64.
