I bought it to be able to play my favorite mario game as a kid but to be able ...

It has updated graphics so it looks different than what you are use to. Everything is very crisp. I bought it to be able to play my favorite mario game as a kid but to be able to play it portably. You wont be disappointed to add this title to your collection. Super Mario World Advance is my next one to be able to play for 2nd favorite mario game as a kid portably. I paid 20 bucks that includes shipping so for me you cant beat the price. Plays on Gameboy Advance and SP, Original DS and Retrom 5 I believe.

I don't think I can say anything that hasn't already been known for 30 years now...

...this is one of if not THE greatest NES games of all time! A must-have for a collector or gamer in pretty much any format.

Great!

I got my first Gameboy at age 25. I've always wanted one, and now I have one (yay, me!). I wanted a Mario game for it, and this one had a 9.5 rating on IGN, so I bought it. I'm really bad at it, but I have lots of fun playing. It's great fun, and I think that anyone looking for some old school fun should definitely get this game. It has all the nostalgic charm of Mario, and it's a lot cheaper than buying $60 games for a console. Plus, it's portable! The only thing I really will say is that the Gameboy Advance is not back-lit, so I think that some of the graphical fun of this game is wasted due to that. However, it is still a lot of fun and has some classic elements like the flying Mario suit. Here's the info on IGN: [...]

One of my all time favorite Mario games

Super Mario Bros 3 is one of my favorite Mario games included Super Mario World, Super Mario RPG, Mario and Luigi series, Paper Mario series, Super Mario Bros 1, 2 and New Super Mario Bros series. I have been playing Mario for 20 years and my very first Mario game is Super Mario World. I got Super Mario World when one of my aunts gave me for Christmas and the game came with the SNES system. Super Mario Bros 3 is very, very hard to beat and very addicting, but I managed to beat it. This game is almost better than the NES game because of the beautiful graphics. Super Mario Bros 3 had very hard and insane levels, new power-ups like the Raccoon leaf and hard bosses. This game had a new mini-boss: Boom-Boom and the introducing of the Koopa Kids bosses. The story starts when Bowser kidnaps Peach again and he sent the Koopa Kids to stop Mario and Luigi from saving Peach. Can Mario and Luigi get through the Koopa Kids and save Peach from Bowser before he rules the Mushroom Kingdom with an iron fist. If you love Super Mario Bros 3, you can either buy the NES or the remake version.

Super Mario Advance 4, as described and works!

Took a bit to ship but I am so happy and thankful it came as described and the actual game in very good condition. There were a saved files but nonetheless, it played and worked. As soon as I got it, I put it in my Gameboy and played as if I was a little kid again . thank you!

Make sure and buy from AwesomeBrad

I can’t get over the fact I have this game on the console I use to play on as a kid! This is wild.

remake of Super Mario Bros. 3

Luigi is playable here when you say Mario and Luigi game which is similar to Super Mario Advance 2, but in Super Mario Advance 2, one does not have to say Mario and Luigi game. Luigi is already there. Also, if one beats the game and beats every level, all of the levels come back in clear mode and you can go to any level you want, which is better again.

Its Mario

Another game, another dollar. Nintendo releasing another masterpiece in the master chief series.

AS ADVERTISED

VERY HAPPY WITH PURCHASE, WOULD BUY FROM THIS SELLER AGAIN!!

Nostalgic

I'm sure, like many of the reviewers here, my first introduction to this game was on a TV screen with the Nintendo Entertainment System. It is as much fun now as it was then. To those experiencing this game for the first time, (and I know this may make me sound old) you had to be there. At the time, this was the best there was. That may not sound like much now, but you will be saying that yourself in 10 to 15 years about your favorite game that is in retro like this one. While this is not as fun as the "original" Super Mario Brothers, this is still a good play. A couple reviewers have stated this is a "hard" game. Um, the game is not supposed to be easy. It is supposed to challenge you. Deal with it. For me, half the fun is working to beat it. I've had the GBA version of the game for all of 48 hours now, am currently on World 2, and have lost many lives, but am having the time of my life. Yes, some of it is the nostalgia factor, but more of it is the fact that I never actually beat the game when I was younger. So the game shall be beat and the game will like it. As far as I remember, this is the same as the NES with maybe slight revisions to the background. LOL I can't check it out because my NES doesn't work anymore. :-( But if you are into straight-forward gaming, or just want a good old-school game, pick this up and enjoy.
