Super Mario Bros. Review

Sold as a 2 in 1 package or 3 in 1 package Super Mario Bros. easily out shinned the other games that it came with.The second in a long line of Mario games and the game that help make Nintendo what it is today.Super Mario Bros. had the first appearance of his arch nemesis Bowser and flying turtles, who can forget the flying turtles?
Replayability [10/10] Yes, replayability, the ability for you to play one game over and over and not become bored with it.Super Mario Bros. has been beaten myself well over 100 times, whether I just warp through the levels or just go through the whole game its been done.No matter how often I play it, it still brings back the days of spiking a controller into the ground when you fall into a pit or get hit by a hammer from a Hammer Brother. Super Mario Bros. is the game that got me into video games and I have never put it down since. One of the key reasons to it being so easy to pick back up is the size of the game.There are 8 worlds with 3 sub divisions in most of them.And even if you get bored of playing it at one time and would just like to finish it off, there is always a warp point only a few minutes away.No matter how many times you beat this game, it just never seems to get old enough to leave in the closet.If it were any better, it would have had a movie made after it…wait a minute.
Gameplay [09/10] Jumping on baddies head is an attack that nobody could ever withstand.Super Mario Bros. gameplay is superb to say the least.Since it is in fact a side scroller Mario is very easy to control, left or right?Although you can't go back in levels you can go left to dodge a speeding turtle shell or snag that coin you just ran by which could lead to an extra life.Gaining an extra life is very simple as many of us know, collect 100 coins and you got one, hit 5 guys with one shell or hope on 5 in a row and you get another.Or there is the 99 Life trick where you continuously jump on one turtle shell until the crown appears.The only bad part of the gameplay is the repetitiveness of jumping or throwing fireballs over and over again, but at this point in time, there wasn't much else you could do.
Graphics & Audio[09/10] For it's time, both were spectacular.The graphics where superb and anyone who grew up with a system of this magnitude can easy tolerate the graphics today, as long as your Nintendo is still clean and useable of course.There is no lag in the game at all, even when switching worlds and such, since it is the old school cartridges and not CD's.Super Mario Brother's audio tracks are classics, and have even been played by Orchestras in New York and San Francisco, not many other games have that on their stat line.It obvious that the music is classic because by now I'm sure you guys all have the tune bouncing around your head or have at some point.As for the other in-game sounds they are also quite classic themselves.The favorite sound obviously being the ringing when receiving a 1up.
Overall[14/15] Super Mario Bros. is probably as classic as you can get, hence why we chose it to be the first Cave review ever.After writing this much of the review I picked up my Nintendo to check out Super Mario once again, and using the warps it only took me about 15 minutes to beat.What a great game it is, and if I didn't use a single warp it would have taken me probably an hour.Such a versitile game should be in ever gamers library and that's why it has been ranked as a Cave Must Have.
