 "Great classic returns, Super Mario 3!" | 2009-07-18 |

As a kid, I was 6 when this great classic originally made its debut. Even then, I saw the vast improvement in graphics that was made through the life of the "Mario" games. Of those, Mario 3 took the spot of my favorite NES game and has held that spot since. Seeing this release for the GBA, once I had a system to play it on (N.DSLite), it was one that I *really* wanted. It certainly hasn't disappointed me in its nostalgic and classic sense. That the GBA title also includes the original arcade version of the Mario Bros. game (as previous Super Mario Advance titles), is also a nice bonus.
I have only one minor complaint. This complaint focuses around the saving feature. Although nice for a game with this kind of length, there are really two "types" of saves:
(1) A "hard" save: You are prompted by the game at "checkpoints" (castles) on if you wish to save or not. The "hard" saves can be loaded multiple times.
(2) A "soft" save: This is used when you wish to stop playing and use the "start" button to "Save & Quit". This "soft" save can only be loaded once to continue from where you saved.
This is different from the saving feature that is in "Super Mario Advance 2: Super Mario World", which treats all saves as "hard" saves. This is what I prefer as it allows saving immediately before entering any level. If you die, load and repeat. Not so for "Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario 3".
Overall, however, this title brings back a great set of classics of the NES. If you grew up playing the Mario games of the that system and the arcade game, "Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario 3" is a must buy. |

| Look people, I love Mario as much as the next guy, but all the Mario Advance games on Amazone are waaaaayyyy over priced. I don't care if it is a classic!! $80.00 for Mario Brothers 3. Holly molly I mean I could just about buy an old NES and an old copy of Mario Brothers 3 for that much...sure I wouldn't be able to save during the game unlike the Game Boy Advance version, but real men don't need to save their progress. Real men can finish the game in one sit-down am I right or am I right |

| I'm so glad I have this game! I can now play it on the go. (on my NDS) It is just like the original, only Mario says certain things when he gets a mushroom, leaf, fire power, 1UP, or dies. It's very cool. This game is the same as Super Mario All Stars. I picked that up right away! The music for the underground level was so cool! If you are a Mario fan, get this game! |
