This in my opinion is possibly the greatest game ever created. Not only does it feature the best selling game of all time (Super Mario Brothers 3) it also has all the other classic big Mario games that almost every gamer alive loves. This game includes the following games. - Super Mario Brothers The classic that had the 8 worlds where you would battle to try to find Princess Peach, only to find that she was “in another castle” 7 times before you actually found her by beating the evil Koopa king known as Bowser. - Super Mario Brothers 2 Probably the least played of the series. Although this game is unique in its own rights. It is also the first Mario game where you didn’t have to use Mario. (You could use Mario, Luigi, Peach or Toad) - Super Mario Brothers 3. This game is an absolute masterpiece. Proof of that would be that when it was originally released on the NES it became the best selling game ever. I still consider this game to be one of the best games ever released. - Super Mario Lost Levels. This game was rare to see when it was originally released. It is a twisted hard version of the original Super Mario Brothers. And I really mean hard. - Super Mario World This is the only platform game I classify to beat Super Mario Brothers 3. This game is simply awesome. It’s long, it’s got tons of Gameplay and Lifespan and it’s hard at the same time. Graphics 10/10 Because of the fact that all of these games (excluding Super Mario World) are re-releases, Nintendo has totally revamped the graphics on all of the games. They did it with flying success I might add. The backgrounds are magnificent, the worlds look awesome and the characters all look much better than what they did on the original NES releases. Super Mario World on its own has some of the best graphics I have ever seen on the Super Nintendo. Gameplay 10/10 What other game can you become big by eating a Mushroom? The original and always best. Who honestly doesn’t like the old Mario platform games? The classics like jumping from one platform to another platform, and getting on top of a flying ship trying to dodge bullets and the like. The amount of ways this game provides absolutely exceptional gameplay is endless. I will say that I do think the Mario games, always have, and always will have the greatest Gameplay in the history of gaming. Sound 10/10 Another thing they re-mastered was the sound. It now sounds smoother than ever (Even with a couple of extra tunes) still got the same catchy sound effects when you use a mushroom to the classic Mario music that gamers can recognize in an instant. Every part of music and effects in this game has been made to sound clearer, and just plain better. Difficulty 10/10 The main difficult thing I seem to remember about this compilation is the “Lost Levels” game. That is defiantly without a doubt the hardest Mario game ever. With that aside, Super Mario World can provide a great challenge even if you’re used to the game. (The special stages on that game still get my blood pressure raising. Story 10/10 What is better than the classic “Princess Peach has been kidnapped by the evil Koopa King known as Bowser” (Which happens in 4 of these games) It mainly differs from “The princess is in another castle” on Super Mario Brothers and the Lost Levels to princess peach giving you hints and items on the 3rd one. Lifespan 10/10 I have played this game since when I was young and I still am nowhere near sick of it. Its lifespan is simply amazing. And what games wouldn’t be with the classics that this game has? In short, if you don’t have this game, you’re missing out on one of the best platform games ever!
