Hello guys. I'm doing a review on a badly-ported version of Super Mario Brothers. This one's called Super Mario Bros. II 1998! Which was made by someone that we all don't know. Or do we? Edit: I have made edits to the review to make it better. Right, here's the review.

GRAPHICS: 3/10
The graphics are taken from Super Mario All-Stars. However the text in the hub is slightly edited. Mario looks like he got a little squashed when he looks small. Also, the colour of the game looks like they were GIF pictures copied and pasted in the Windows 7 version of MS Paint.

SOUND: 4/10
The sound is kind of good; the music is alright. When Mario hits a box, the "power up" sound plays when a item is inside. When you get 100 coins, you don't hear a 1UP sound. Instead, it will go down to 0 (it will give you an extra life!) and no sound plays.

ADDICTIVENESS: 1/10
This game is very, VERY, very bad. I really would never want to play this game as it's not very programmed properly. As of my Super Boy on the Master System review, the Buzzy Beetles and Koopa Paratroopas were also not programmed properly, except for the normal Koopas. Instead, they just poke their faces out of their shells, go back into their shell and when you stomp them, they just die. And for the Paratroopas? Well, the Red ones fly up and down in World 1-3, but sometimes when you stomp on them, they just take away your power up! The green ones also fly up and down and probably something else... but what's the story for this game?

STORY: None...
There's no story in the game. It's just Mario going to save the Princess. What do you expect?

DEPTH: 9/10
This is how big the game offers to me, it's because of the effort put into this game.

DIFFICULTY: 10/10
This game is very hard like the depth on how much it's hard.

OVERALL RATING: 1.8/10
I don't really think this is a good game at all. The controls are BAD, the warp zones are reversed, and Lakitu may throw down too many Spinies and crash the game!

Well that's the end of my review for this game. But before I go, at the end of the game when you save the Princess, she'll say this:

"Thank you Sonic. The kingdom is saved. Now try again."

The person who made this may have taken Sonic Jam 6, insert a 2 player mode, replaced Sonic with Mario and forgot to rewrite the sentence that says "Thank you Sonic" to "Thank you Mario". That's all for my review on Super Mario Bros. II 1998. See you next time!

Your review could use a little bit of work. You need to talk about each category a little bit more other than a very brief sentence describing each rating category. 

Your review was OK but could definitely have used more details. Do you have specific examples of the harsh difficulty level? What are the various things you can do since you gave depth such a high score?

janus : I have made some edits to it now, just to make it better.

ihateschool2004 : I can't say I remember much of the original review, but this does look good.

I would suggest if you are planning on writing further reviews, that you start off with games that you ENJOY first. That way you have lots of things that you can talk about regarding the game and what it has to offer.

As far as the game goes. I figured that a pirated Mario game developed for Genesis would be bad. So no surprise there lol

Jordanv78 : I kind of want to play this game. Just to see for myself how bad it really is.

Lol, I can see why a hack like this would be so bad. I think you did a good  job explaining why this game's so bad. Some users normally don't like seeing reviews like this, but for some reason, I like seeing games like this receive negative reviews, since they deserve it.

gamerforlifeforever2 : I guess some people are more sensitive than others. While I love FF8, I can see some of its shortcomings. Some maniacs will just not accept anything negative.
