Arcade Run Review: Super Mario Brothers Arcade

Yay our 1st review.
Here we review the lesser known, Super Mario Brothers Arcade.

EDIT: Upon further reading we have found out that the 1st part of the game is majority a port, but further down the levels are actually different, and some levels are from the Japanese's game Super Mario Brothers 2!

Mario (C) Nintendo

Video isn't showing up? The quality and angle of the videos could be better, but the concept is great!

I would point out that this IS different than the NES game... the VS. Super Mario Bros. is harder than the home version. There are lots of little subtle changes (note how there's a Koopa Trooper under the coin box that's walled in, in 1-2... in the NES version it's a goomba) that increase difficulty. The "PlayChoice 10" version of SMB IS identical to the NES version (with a timer... PC10 is like a multi-cart NES that has a time based lock on it, and coins pay for more time to play).

There is something about being in an arcade that makes NES games cooler though. My best friend in childhood had a crappy 1982 TV where we played NES games back in the day. Good times... but seeing SMB in the arcade on a big bright monitor, in a noisy arcade and playing it with a joystick? Wow. The only drawback was that controller 1 and 2 both control mario, so I remember this jerk messed up my game when I was playing by hitting his buttons at a party one time. I was pissed...

I really miss arcades.. where is this location where you do the videos?
