Anti-piracy software, a source code feature in the Mario series, is an anti-virus screen against piracy and illegal game copy. Sometimes, objects with extreme fear are added to anti pirate screens (eg Mario Kart series, Mario and Luigi series). Or there is a feature that locks the game (eg games like Mario Bros Wii). In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Magician's Sword, in case of detection, the system gives the player a warning notice and removes them from the game and cannot enter the game again. However, unlike others, when the program is clicked you have to enter the serial code there. When the Serial code is entered correctly, the game will be completely deleted from pirated files and the game will begin downloading fully itself.
Note: Some anti pirate screens are completely fan made. They also can give at Nintendo's removed anti piracy website link in corrputed screens.
Examples
For example, in this link, the player starts the race normally. Afterwards, short-term crashes occur on the screen during the cornering and after the crash, the player continues where he left off, but the other competitors and the HUD disappear. As the player approaches the finish line, Lakitu barricades there with the pipes and the message is reflected to the player: "It is a serious crime to pirate video games". After the message is reflected, the game crashes completely and after the crash comes a map similar to the Muspelheim and Helheim mix in this game. Lakitu turns into a demon and warns the player with the following messages: "GET OFF MY TRACK!". After the player turns back (it will reflect the same even if he goes forward) Lakitu takes the player and throws the player into a tar-like liquid and crashes the game. After the game crashes, the map is painted red and black. One of the monsters from Half-Life appears in the middle of the map. When the player approaches the middle of the map, the monster will jump on the player and eat the player. After eating, the game crashes. After it crashes, it goes to a dark cyan map similar to one of the islands in Alfheim in this game. At first glance, Mario's evil clone comes to the player at full speed. Then the others come and show the message: "It is a serious crime to pirate video games". And then others come to the player and the game crashes completely due to a code error and the Nintendo DS gives an error.
In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Magician's Sword, unlike other games, the system completely locks and the following error message is issued: ''The pirate video game is serious crime. Theft may result in 5 years in prison or 100 thousand dollars in redemption. We will take you out of the game to protect you. Please report this stolen copy to smrpglotms.com/antipiracy.'' After the message is shown, it will kick it from the game and when it is re-entered, it will ask for a serial code. When the correct serial code is entered, the game will completely uninstall itself and start downloading the full original files. Once downloaded, the file will be considered purchased.
