I downloaded a SMW & All Stars ROM. During levels, you can select suits by pressing SELECT, and if you hold a button and press SELECT it gives or removes the Kuribo Shoe. Why is this? Is the ROM hacked or does it do this because it detects that it's not a real SNES being used to play it? I'm using ZSNES as the emulator.
Cheers,

That's a testing feature that they forgot to take out of the game. It's also present in Super Mario All-Stars (without SMW).
Darn. Just another mess o’ Chocolate Pan Dowdy.

What's most odd is that it's not in ALL versions of the original Super Mario All-Stars. The debug cheat for SMB3 does *NOT* work on my real SMAS cartridge. However, I also have the ROMs of both SMAS and SMAS-SMW, and it works on both of them.
The only plausible explanation is that Nintendo fixed the issue in a second run of SMAS, but that when SMAS-SMW was developed, it neglected to use the appropriate patched source code for the game, and therefore reintroduced the debug cheat.

That, and the single copy of the ROM circulating about the 'net is of the first version of SMAS.
Darn. Just another mess o’ Chocolate Pan Dowdy.

Yes. I believe it was present in the very first early version of the game. I'm lucky. I have it. I believe it was in the ones given out by Nintendo for free for some sorta promotion.
