As you probably know, Kinect has been hacked and it can do a range of awesome things, and the latest trick up its sleeve is a way to play Super Mario Bros with Kinect.

That's right, now you can play good old Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros 2, and Super Mario Bros 3 with your Kinect. Combination of latest motion sensing technology of Kinect and old Super Mario games sure sounds awesome, but does it work that way?

In order to move Mario, you have to move to the side of the screen and move your legs, and this works pretty well, but it cannot be compared to the good old standard controller. Same goes for jumping and crouching, in order to make Mario jump or crouch you have to do the same, but like we said, it might not work as well as you think.

Sure, this is a refreshing way to play Super Mario Bros games, but we doubt that someone will seriously use Kinect to play old NES classics, its fun but not by any means practical.
