Regarded by many as the best game to ever grace the original NES, Super Mario Bros. 3 gets shrunk down for the GBA, and it is all the more glorious all these years later, even on the small screen. Featuring re-vamped graphics and sound effects with the tried but true side-scrolling Mario fun, Super Mario 3 is every bit as fun as it was years ago. Fans who remember the classic game will remember the innovative power ups introduced here: the raccoon leaf, the frog suit, and plenty more as you take on Bowser’s children and the Hammer Bros. as well as the usual cast of Mario villains. The level design has yet to be beat, and despite a few frustrations that are common place in the Mario series, the game is still a blast to play. All in all, Super Mario Bros. 3 is a must own for GBA owners and DS owners alike, and it’s still one of the best platformers ever made.

Though Nintendo had been the preeminent leader in video game systems since its debut in 1985, it was 1989′s release of “Super Mario Brothers 3″, the last of the original Super Mario Trilogy for the NES that sent Nintendo’s popularity soaring into the stratosphere. A truly complex and challenging game, “…3″ re-invented the side-scroller genre. Like so many longtime Nintendo loyalists, I have fond memories playing “Super Mario 3″ for hours on end as I tried to defeat the bosses in the new and varied worlds like the Ice World, the Desert World, and the Sky World, to name a few. It took 14 years, but Nintendo has giving this seminal game a spectacular rebirth on the handheld Gameboy Advance System. While it is actually the fourth in the “Super Mario Advance” series for the GBA (preceded by Super Mario 2 [SMA1], Super Mario World [SMA2], Yoshi’s Island [SMA3]), it is a complete port of “Super Mario Brothers 3″. It is exactly as I remembered the original game, save for the ability to play as Luigi (in addition to Mario) and some spruced up graphics. The gameplay is a seamless re-creation of the original and it’s simply amazing to be playing this marvelous game in a handheld format. The only port more astounding for GBA was “Super Mario World [SMA2]“, and that was simply because it was from a more advance system. In addition to the wonderful nostalgia of playing “Super Mario 3″, “SMA 4″ also gives the gamer the original “Mario Bros” game to play individually or in multiplayer mode (all the “Super Mario Advance” games do this). While Nintendo has made some missteps in understanding its core fan base with its handling of its last two platform systems, the “Super Mario Advance” series, especially “Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros 3″ shows that Nintendo still has an intimate understanding of what its fans want in a portable gaming system. BRING ON THE NINTENDO DS.

The Mario Bros. are back!And with more revenge.It certainly beats all other Super Mario Games by Nintendo.The story goes that the Kaopalings have stolen the magical wand from each world and have turned them into animals.The game is a pure thrill.I can guarintee u that u will enjoy it a lot.The levels are not so easy,not so tough.It’s the perfect combination of skill and strategy.The Racoon and Tanooki Mario are super cool.I always enjoy throwing off the turtule shells into enemies.Thogh Mario is the main character,I prefer playing with Luigi too.This game goes to to The parent”s choice awards!

Mario 3 was my favorite video game growing up. But these days, my NES only works when it feels like it, and I never bought Super Mario All-Stars for SNES. Game Boy Advance is an awesome invention, and when they came out with Mario Bros. 2, I couldn’t wait for Mario Bros. 3 to come out, because it’s the best one. They just don’t make games like this anymore!First of all, the newer Mario games seem to forget about Luigi altogether. How much more fun would Mario 64 have been if we could play as Luigi? Second, Bowser’s children were a great addition to this game, and were what made this game and Mario World great games. For some reason, we never saw those 7 kids again. I’d love to see them again with the new graphics that gamecube has. To make an incredible new Mario Bros. game, all they have to do is basically take this game and make it 3D. People would buy it.Super Mario Bros. 3 is also unique because it allows the player to keep items that they can use anytime during the game, so you can have the racoon suit or the fire flower anytime you need it. The racoon suit and the super leaf were the best items that Nintendo came up with for Mario. They should have kept that instead of the winged hat in Mario 64, or that jetpack thing from Sunshine. It just looks better. Gameboy should really have another Mario game that keeps these elements and only changes the levels. Let’s hope that Gamecube has a Mario game like this too.

First, the original Super Mario Bros. 3 was a great game, and the original Legend of Zelda is the only competition for the greatest NES game of all time. This greatness is carried over well.While is is more or less a direct port, the graphics have been improved (taken from the SNES re-release of the NES Mario games, Super Mario All-Stars), as well as the sound and music. Unfortunately, they also added in voices for the brothers. While novel at first, you’ll start to get annoyed the hundredth time Mario exclaims “Oh, just what I needed!” when he picks up a mushroom.My main disappointment lies with lack of extras. When a favorite movie is re-released on DVD, I’ve come to expect commentaries of some sort, deleted scenes, and a few other extras. I guess that doesn’t hold true for videogames. Want to know what the great reward is at the end? Level select. That’s it. You can warp back and re-play any previously beaten level. Somewhat of a let-down if you’ve just spent the last two days powering through to beat them all.There are some extras, yes, but they’re only available through the e-Reader add-on, and it also requires a friend with a GBA so you can link. Or if you’re going it solo, you’ll have to pick up an extra gameboy yourself just for this purpose. I haven’t yet dropped the near-$100 to get these accessories, and I don’t think a few extra levels are worth this great expense.

Grâce à l’IRL j’ai pu récupérer une Game Boy Advance SP et Super Mario Bros. Deluxe + Pokémon Saphir !
