5.0 out of 5 stars enjoy the best game ever, May 26, 2008

This review is from: Super Mario Bros. / Duck Hunt (Video Game)

This is where it all began, folks. Many of us who grew up in the 80's remember this game fondly, because back then, we didn't have as big of a gaming selection as we do today. We only had a few games, and Super Mario Bros. was one of them.

You know what though? People seem to think we must have had it rough back then, only having a few games available for the NES in the mid 80's. Not much in the way of variety. But the truth (the HONEST truth) is this- the smaller choices we had, the more we appreciated the few games we had, unlike today where games seem to be designed with the intention of sucking out as much storyline elements as possible and quickly moving on to the next game to find out about the conclusion of said storyline.

Back in the day we didn't play games like that. We'd wait patiently for a new groundbreaking gaming experience to take us by surprise. Oh and trust me- the new innovations back then *were* incredible. Unlike anything we'd seen previously. It seemed like a few new amazing things happened every year. This really helped the replay value shoot through the roof.

Really, do people even care as much about video games today? It's not like new, groundbreaking features are coming along anymore (except for the Wii and that amazing Nintendo controller, but nothing revolutionary concerning the GAMES themselves are being made anymore).

No, back in the mid 80's, small platform games laid the foundation for what was soon to come. Every single year sparked a new innovation. The first Super Mario Bros. was popular, fun, and playable for just about anyone, and THAT is what matters most of all. It mattered back then, and it matters now.

The object is to just blow through the short levels collecting mushrooms and coins, jumping across platforms, and finding the best way to deal with the amazing enemies throughout the levels. That's it. Simple genius I like to call it.

The fact that the game features water and castle levels shows that Nintendo was really onto something huge back then, and they would continue to make one quality Mario game after another while building and expanding on the water and castle levels for future games. Not just Mario games either- how many games these days have water and castle themes? That's right- literally *thousands*.

Sometimes the first is extremely important, and this game is a perfect example of that. Experience brilliance.

I've had an NES since before I can remember, and I still prefer it over the newer systems. Mario is always a classic, and Duck Hunt is fun for challenging others. Yay Nintendo!

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS GAME IS AWSOME!, November 21, 2005

Super Mario Bros. Is the greatest NES Game! It featured great graphics (for 1985) and outstanding game play. If you don't like Platform (pitfall) styled games, this game is not for you. Super Mario Bros. is an outstanding game, where the Mario Bros. go out and try to save Princess Peach Toadstool, and rescue her and her Mushroom Kingdom. If you have a NES, GET THIS GAME!

EXTRA FEATURE! This version also includes Duck hunt, but you need the zapper gun (not sold on amazon, but is in the NES section of www.atariace.com) But normaly this 2 Game Cart., is cheaper than plain Super Mario Bros. Duck hunt is also a great shooting game ( Non gory and is also family freindly) these together are a great combo!
