Super Mario All-Stars

Rated E.

I played Super Mario All Stars about six years ago at my friends house on my friends SNES or Super Nintendo.If you already have Super Mario Bros 1,2 and 3 for NES then there is really no point in getting this(unless you are a die hard mario fan and want to see the lost levels for Super Mario Bros 2).It is basically Super Mario Bros 1,2 and 3 put together in one game.However there are extra levels for Super Mario Bros 2 which are only in the Japanese version of the game.The three games are very fun and classics for the 80's.They were excellent in the 80's,they were excellent in the 90's and they are excellent now!.Great games.

10/10

Super Mario All-Stars is a textbook example of how to do a video game compilation right. Bundling four classic Mario games from the NES era-Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, and the previously Japan-exclusive Lost Levels-this SNES collection offers both nostalgia and value in one colorful package.

Chapter 1: A Fresh Coat of Paint

The most noticeable change is the graphics. Each game has been lovingly redrawn in the 16-bit art style of Super Mario World, and it really works. The visuals are bright, detailed, and bring new life to levels that many players already know by heart. Add in enhanced music and sound effects, and the whole package feels revitalized without losing the spirit of the originals.

Chapter 2: Same Great Taste, Better Presentation

Each game is faithfully recreated in terms of gameplay, with only minor tweaks. The physics may feel slightly different to purists, but the essence is still intact. The addition of a save feature is a huge quality-of-life improvement-especially for the longer and tougher games like Lost Levels or Mario 3. It finally lets players explore these classics at their own pace.

Chapter 3: Not Without Limits

While the collection is strong overall, it's not flawless. The games remain largely unchanged content-wise-no bonus levels, no concept art, no extra developer insights. It's a visual and audio upgrade, but not an expanded or remixed experience. And if you're not already invested in these games, their age might still show through in some of the more dated mechanics.

Final Thoughts

Still, what Super Mario All-Stars delivers is a clean, polished, and respectful way to play some of the most important platformers in history. Whether you're reliving memories or discovering them for the first time, it's hard not to smile.

8/10 - A top-tier remaster of four timeless classics. Simple, solid, and still a blast.

The best of games for the original Nintendo system are together in one Super Nintendo game. Super Mario Bros 1, 2 and 3, along with the Lost Levels which is actually Japan's Super Mario 2. The graphics have vastly been improved, especially the original game. Best of all, it has Nintendo's best character of all Mario. Another fine point is how you can save your game unlike the originals. Overall, this game is great.

Super Mario All Stars is a collection of four Mario Bros video games.

The games being:Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels, Super Mario Bros 2 and Super Mario Bros 3.

Each game is given a graphic update with nicer colors and more detail to character but remains faithful to each game.

The game was release on the Super Nintendo and was release on disc for the Nintendo Wii for the 25th Anniversary of Super Mario Bros which will give you a more appreciate for gaming.

Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels is an Japan only title with levels that didn't make it over here and it's nice to see what this title offer for those who never played it.

Super Mario Bros 1,2, and 3 again are the same games with graphic updates and the games really remain fun.

The games graphics are very well done and good character design which goes great for those who never play them before.

The classic theme song is still in the game as soon as you hear it you know you're playing Super Mario Bros.

The controls are still the same and work well for the classic gamers

The music is still catchy as ever as you find yourself humming the songs.

You can also save your game which is very nice considering that the games are a challenge so that is another plus for Mario fans.

Super Mario All Stars is just a very good collection of Mario games four games for the price of one how could you go wrong.

I give Super Mario All Stars an 10 out of 10

This game brings together some of the best games from the 8 but generation, the Mario games. I think nothing needs to be said except to remind people that SMB3 is the best game on the NES. They're perfect translations, every enemy that was there is in here (Trust me, I checked). The most welcome addition of all is the ability to save in SMB3, a game that takes a full day out of your life to completely play through, something I've done only once. Every other time, I used the warp whistles. So, if you're a newbie trying to catch up, this cart means 3 less purchases to make. If you're not, you need it for the Japanese SMB2: The Lost Levels. Either way, buy it.
