 Super Mario Bros Review by: Bluey5 - 9.5/10
Super Mario Bros.-Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) Review
Introduction:Oh, the classical Super Mario Bros. Not only is this one of the games that helped the Nintendo get back on it's feet, it is one of the best platform games of all time! So of course, this game is a platform video game made and developed by Nintendo and was released for the Nintendo Entertainment System(NES) in 1985. This is also the start of the Super Mario Series! In this game, you control the renowned Mario and in a two-player game, his brother Luigi, as he or they travel throughout the Mushroom Kingdom to rescue Princess Peach from their arch-nemesis; Bowser!
Difficulty:7 Is this game hard? HECK YES! You will have a hard time with this game. A very hard time indeed. Without a save state system, who would be able to complete this game? It gets very challenging as the cliffs get higher and further, more unique enemies come into play, and more objects! With enough tries, you could get through the game. The hard levels are usually the 3rd level of the world. Well, at least for me it was. Besides, the best thing you can do is not get frustrated. This game is supposed to be fun! So have some fun!
Depth:8 There is tremendous depth in this game! So let's get started. So you take on the infamous role of the hero, Mario. Luigi could also be the hero, only playable in two player mode. The second player controls Luigi. You and the heroes main goal is to rush through the Mushroom Kingdom, withstand the gruesome attacks from Bowser and his minions to save Princess Toadstool. You move left from right through the screen and at the end you must jump on the flag pole to complete the level. It is rumored that you can actually jump over the pole!
The play-field has coins scattered everywhere for you to collect, and special bricks marked with a question mark, along with regular, breakable bricks. When these bricks are bumped from below, coins or a special item appears out of them. There are other secret blocks that contain even bigger secrets like more coins, access to a bonus coin room, or rare items. Most of these secret blocks are invisible! A mushroom is one of the items that comes out of the blocks and when collected, Mario or Luigi turns to "Super Mario" or "Super Luigi". This item makes them grow double their size and allows you to be hit one extra time and give you the ability to break regular blocks. You are given three lives to start with, and you can increase them! In order to do that you must collect one-hundred coins, collecting a 1-UP mushroom, bouncing repeatedly on a koopa shell, or defeating multiple enemies without touching the ground. You lose these by being hit to much, falling in pits, or time expires. The game ends when all lives are lost. But don't worry, you can attack enemies, like stated above. The main attack is jumping on the heads of your enemies, but you have to be careful because the way enemies responds to his varies. For example: stomping a goomba will result in the goomba's defeat. A koopa troopa will go in a shell for a short time, giving you the option to attack other enemies with it. They can deflect of walls, so be careful. It might hurl back at you and do damage, or kill you! The other way to attack is to throw a fireball with the fire flower. You can only throw fireballs when you get the item in "Super" mode. If you are regular, it will act as you getting a mushroom. It also changes the color of the character. The least common item is the Starman item. It is a star with eyes and if you acquire it, then you become temporarily invincible and running into enemies kills them. These items are usual found in hidden blocks and invisible blocks.
The game has eight "worlds" with four levels in each. The final stage of the worlds is a boss fight with a decoy of Bowser. You fight the real, tough Bowser at the end. These stages include regular stages, underwater stages, and stages underground. These stages contain different enemies as well. There are secret areas which mostly include collecting a big load of coins. You can also go in pipes to a bonus room and you can even find a wrap pipe that lets you travel to another world, skipping some tough hard ones!
So yeah, tremendous depth in this game. Didn't expect that did you?
Story:6
Same old, original story. You have to save the damsel in distress. Not really to interesting for most, but without someone to save, this would seem much less tedious and pointless now would it?
OR you could say that the Koopa King Bowser has invaded the Mushroom Kingdom and has kidnapped civilians and the beloved Princess Peach! He has flooded the Mushroom Kingdom with his minions and it is up to the Mario Bros. To stop him! They have to endure countless enemies and castles!? Will they be able to do it!? It is all up to YOU!
Which sound more interesting? Take your pick.
Addictiveness:8
This game could get old fast, but with how much it has to offer and how much depth is in this game is what makes you come back for more! There is a lot of things you can do with this game. You can compete with friends, beat your high score, complete the game in one run. The choices are endless.
Sound:9
The soundtrack is awesome. They have some catchy tunes in this game, and it really sets the vibe of the game. Especially the castle music. There is a song for almost every theme-typed level and the songs fit all of it.
Graphics:9
For it's time, the graphics were WAY better than it's predecessors and past games making the graphics on this one look great. Everything is portrayed very well. There is a few minor things here and there like some things being half invisible. But other than that, everything looks astonishing!
Overall:9.5
This game is just plain good. It is a great classic and should be tried by everyone, no matter what type of game genre you like.(Well maybe...) All in all, this game is close to perfect. Nintendo did a great job with this game and I am sure that you will enjoy it.
Thank you for your time. HAVE FUN!

Super Mario Bros Box Description: Do you have what it takes to save the Mushroom Princess?
You'll have to think fast and move even faster to complete this quest! The Mushroom Princess is being held captive by the evil Koopa tribe of turtles. It's up to you to rescue her from the clutches of the Koopa King before time runs out. But it won't be easy. To get to the princess, you'll have to climb mountains, cross seas, avoid bottomless pits, fight off turtle soldiers and a host of black magic traps that only a Koopa King can devise. It's another non-stop adventure from the SUPER MARIO BROS.!
Super Mario Bros Description: The Princess has been kidnapped by the evil Bowser, and it is up to Mario and brother Luigi to save the day.The first ever platform adventure for the Mario Brothers has the player exploring level after level, with Bowser to contend with as the end of level boss. Power-ups include the Super Mushroom, which increases Mario's size and power, the fire flower, allowing him to shoot fireballs at enemies, and the ever important starman for a short burst of invincibility.Each level includes a bonus section filled with coins plus a shortcut through the level, plenty of bad buys and obstacles to get past, and an end of level flag, in which the higher the player grabs it, the more points are awarded to them. Certain levels also include warp points, which takes the player to higher levels.

Super Mario Bros Cheats and Codes

Super Mario Bros Cheats, Codes and Tips:
Continue
If you run out of lives and want to continue then at the game over screen press and hold A then press start at 1 player (or 2 player) and you will start at the beginning of the world at which you died!
Access 5-1 from 1-2
To access this warp, you must be Super or Fiery Mario. Go to the pipe at the end of the level and jump on top of it. Jump up and break the block over top of the part of the pipe farthest left. Then, position Mario on the edge of the pipe, with one foot hanging off the edge. Duck, then jump backwards as far right as possible. If done just right, Mario will slide through the pipe and the bricks. Walk over to the warp zone area and enter the middle pipe. This pipe will take you to world 5, level 1. The same area can be acessed from a pipe in the same place in 4-2. However, this is meant to be a warp zone to 5-1, whereas the 1-2 warp to 5-1 is a glitch. After completing the jump trick in level 1-2, you can also go down either of the other two pipes, both of which will take you to Minus World -1.
Negative World
Go to World 1-2. At the pipe that leads to the flag, break two blocks so there's one at the end touching the pipe. Now duck and jump backward toward the brick (don't break it!). You should go through the wall and pipe into a warp zone. Jump down the first pipe you see and you will be in the Negative World (-1)!
Shoot fireballs as small Mario
Go to either 1-4, 2-4,3-4, etc. and get to Bowswer. Make sure you are Big Mario and try to jump over Bowser or run under him. Stand near the Axe and Bowser will start to walk towards you. As he gets near you, jump high, and touch Bowser and the Axe at the same time. If you do it correctly, you will hear the sound as if you were to shrink, but you will just flash and stay big. Go to the next stage, and get a Mushroom. (Yes, there will be a Mushroom instead of a Fire Flower.) When you touch the Mushroom, you will shrink. Then get a Fire Flower, and you'll have Fire Power as small Mario. (Note: after you do the Bowser/Axe trick, enemies that touch you will be able to kill you when you are Big Mario. When they touch you while you are small Mario after getting the Mushroom or Fire Flower, you will turn back into Big Mario.) Super Mario Bros Game Genie Codes: AATOZA Start players 1 & 2 with 1 life

I like this game. It's so classic. But all classic games have to have some bad things to make it shit, like those hammer bros. They suck. Throwing their hammers around like they're the best. They still haunt me to this day to be one of the most annoying video game villians ever. But there isn't just the hammer bros. What about that stupid dog from duck hunt. So, the thing is, it could be worse, couldn't it?! Super Mario Brothers is a great game. Except for those hammer brothers who piss me off every time. I'm sick of it! But, there are some up sides to all of this... It isn't real. But this review is.

7 - Just when you thought video games r badly drawn - Didowe
(short-form of R because of space).
Reviewing an 80s "classic" in the year 10s is a bit hard, if you look out there you would mostly find many games that has more features, mostly online multilayer, and are more opened, allowing you to have more choices or bigger level designs/attack styles.
This is back then, where the 1,0000 + games (I know...I tested many C64 games, all of many genres), they were mostly a pain in many ways: Annoying Music, "Read the manual or you won't know anything as this game is very complex" or are just simply boring.
Mario changed that.
The game is simple, just go left until the end.
The music is catchy but if you played the game for too long it starts to seriously feel like a crazy rabbit jumping on your brain...not a good feel.
The graphics are also better then most games, on the earlier levels it was pretty average like any other (80s) game. However, as you go on to world 3, it is beautifully white and dark (good "dark"), it feels like you are inside a nice cozy room with the air-con on and sitting on a very comfortable chair drinking a warm cup of coffee/tea/chocolate milk...with a nice cold glass of water as a side to cool down your tongue after the drink (too sweet or too bitter)...and you are simply playing Mario on a small screen (I am sorry for that long illusion).
The game controls well and is also a good balance of difficulty, it is never really frustrating due to the game's short length (if you used a few warp-holes...doing each level at a time is the REAL challenge).
The problem I have with a game like this is that when you lose all your lives after playing for about 10 mins and going pretty far into the game, I find it hard to restart, not because of rage...it's just that 'I want to do something else' feel.
It is a good game to play for about half an hour (everyday), but any longer would be tricky due to the game being too simplistic, it's just does not feel fun (unless you are playing with friends or trying different quotes) anymore after that (if you did die once, if you are still on the same life then you won't even notice).
Sorry for this poorly written review, as I said, it is tricky to write a review for an old game.
It is a MUST BUY for platform fans in the 80s, but if you are in the 2010s, you should find a copy that is less then $50 (or play here :D).

My computer was lagging (bad internet), but I still made it to 1-2 before I died. I have played the game before and it is a great game. I'll be back to set a better high score. I loved what I did get to play so far here. Everything is the same as I remember. Too many people judge games based on graphics. Factor in the age of this game and the graphics are actually really good. The music can get a bit repetitive if I remember right.

This, my friends, is the game of all games. You seriously don't need online multiplayer to have fun. This game started Nintendo. It introduced most of us gamers to gaming. Nintendo knew what it was doing and still does. This deserves a 10/10 rating because it is the "Adam & Eve" of Nintendo.

So lets see this was the first mario game for the NES that was released over 20 years ago lets see this game would have a rating of 10 out of 10 ,because its a classic. The Graphics were Okay for an NES games the music was awesome okay :) I loved the Underwater world theme it was my favorite... This was the first game to feature Princess Peach AKA Princess Toadstool and King Koopa AKA King Bowser i think this is a classic must have for anybody that loves mario!

Madison is right, takes some seconds to wait for the target screenshot :D
Richard geller 09-13-12 - 02:12 PM
:P jerryaberry, I have some games with 6:40 6:44 6:49 that means I have a lot of screenshot but now I know you should observe the coins, time, and points to find what you want in better way.

I was looking in my speed-run-screenshots and I only have this too, I don't have one in which the dialogue is complete.
jerryaberry 09-13-12 - 01:10 PM
I'm not sure if it should count because a few seconds may be a lot for this type of competition. Great run no less Richard geller. Things are heating up, I need to get quicker in world 8.
madison 09-13-12 - 09:23 AM
I guess your screenshot should count, but since it takes Peach another 6 seconds to finish her dialogue from that point, it should count as a 00:06:11 time.
Richard geller 09-13-12 - 12:01 AM
I take the screenshot, a little before... sorry :(
I was so nervous! :D

madison 09-05-12 - 03:01 PM
Thanks, jerryaberry. Though I died on the very first hole of both 8-3 and 8-4, so I probably only lost about ten seconds or so from that.
