This game is still challenging and fun after all of these years.
Now there are some minor technical glitches in this game,but it shouldn't realy bother you all that much,unless if you're one of those people who pay extremely close attention to detail.Now there are 64 levels in this game.That's a whole lot of levels,even by today's standards.And 64 levels is a lot to tackle with only three lives to start with.Luckily,you can start from the beginning of whatever world you were in with three lives by holding A and pressing start at the menu after losing.You will lose your score,but it's worth it to see the end of this game.
One thing that I thought was weird was that you can link Gameboys together and do two player.But since you have to wait for the other person to die before you play,it's basicly pointless,and you might as well just pass one Gameboy off.
Probably my favorite part of this game is the sound,and everything sounds great on the Gameboy.Leveling up,getting hurt,and even dying is really cool to hear.But I also love when you get to the castle at the end of each world and send Bowser into the lava.That can be very nerveracking trying to pass him,but it's rewarding.
Now I love playing through this port of Super Mario Bros,and there isn't really anything I can complain about,except for the price.I had to pay $30 for this game on Gamestop.com.And that's a real steep price to pay for a USED game,especially since it was free with the NES.But,if you're willing to fork over the 30 bucks,then you should definitely pick this game up.
