Is it a copyright issue if a map was made on Conquer Club that emulated a world in Super Mario or Donkey Kong video games?
Because I'd be on top of that shit!

It probably would be a copyright issue...I like the idea, though

Iono- they simply changed pac-man to conquerman and that flied. I'm pretty sure namco still has rights on that one?

As far as I'm aware, Pacman is in the public domain. Nintendo however, is not, and they are renowned for protecting their copyright with their lives...

yes there was an attempt at a legend of zleda map, and also a mushroom kingdom themed one a year or two ago, it is impossible..

Personally, I wouldn't advise anyone to pursue a Nintendo-themed map... despite my love of their consoles...
