Super Mario All-Stars: A Nostalgic Trip Through Mario’s Early Adventures
Released in 1993 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Super Mario All-Stars is a compilation of four classic Mario platformers: Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. The games have been updated with enhanced graphics and sound, and they all feature an added on-cartridge save feature. Super Mario All-Stars was a critical and commercial success, and it is still considered one of the best Mario compilations ever released.
Enhanced Graphics and Sound
One of the most noticeable improvements in Super Mario All-Stars is the enhanced graphics. The games have been given a鮮やかな16-bit makeover, with brighter colors and smoother lines. The character sprites are also larger and more detailed, and the backgrounds are more varied and interesting.
The sound has also been improved in Super Mario All-Stars. The music is now richer and more dynamic, and the sound effects are more realistic. The games also feature new sound effects that were not present in the original releases.
On-Cartridge Save Feature
Another major improvement in Super Mario All-Stars is the addition of an on-cartridge save feature. This allows players to save their progress at any point in the game, and then return to it later. This is a major convenience, as it eliminates the need to complete the entire game in one sitting.
Super Mario Bros. 3 Battle Mode
In addition to the four main games, Super Mario All-Stars also includes a new “battle mode” for Super Mario Bros. 3. This mode allows two players to compete against each other in a variety of different levels. The goal of the game is to be the first player to collect 100 coins.
The battle mode is a fun and challenging addition to Super Mario All-Stars. It is a great way to test your skills against a friend, and it can also be a lot of fun to just mess around and see who can get the most coins.
The Lost Levels
Super Mario All-Stars also includes Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, which was originally released in Japan as Super Mario Bros. 2. This game is much more difficult than the original Super Mario Bros., and it features a number of new enemies and obstacles.
The Lost Levels is a great challenge for experienced Mario players. It is a tough but fair game, and it is sure to test your skills.
Conclusion
Super Mario All-Stars is a must-have for any fan of Mario platformers. It is a great collection of four classic games, and the enhanced graphics, sound, and on-cartridge save feature make it the definitive way to experience these games. Whether you are a long-time Mario fan or a newcomer to the series, Super Mario All-Stars is a game that you will enjoy.
Review
