Wow, Okay so Super Mario All-Stars is a fantastic game especially if you want a variety of different games! I mean come on it's 4 games in 1 of MARIO how much more could you ask than just that? When I first played this game I was like okay, 'wait what'? I didn't understand at first that it was 4 games in 1, I ended up trying each one and was like okay this is different then the other and then actually examined the game and was like DUH that's why it's a 4 in 1 game. I was so excited and already I had played almost all 4 of the games. Graphics : 9 The graphics are very nice. I find most of the graphics are actually better than some of the other Mario games I have played. Not sure if it's because it's a bigger style of character or if it's because of the extra detail they put into the actual game itself. All I know is the graphics wowed me. I was kind of disappointed when this game basically reminded me of other Mario games even though it was bigger and/or better graphics. I want something new, not the same old thing. I liked this game more when I was younger but as I have gotten older my opinions have just changed, not sure if that is just because I have played the game in general so much or if it's an actual problem with the game. Sound : 10 The sound is pretty good. There is a variety of music and since there is 4 games there is plenty of different kinds of styles of music and sounds that would basically fit the title *something for all*. I myself didn't know what to expect. I thought most of the music would be annoying, probably the same as most games but I was very wrong. This game adds the kind of feel you want in sound with many games that don't provide that feeling. Try out the sounds, I'm sure you will enjoy it as much as I have, plus look on the bright side at least to most it isn't annoying music and/or sounds. Addictiveness : 9 This game is enticingly addictive. You have 4 different types of mario games you play, full of content that will keep you hours at your chair playing it. I myself played many hours at a time. I wouldn't say this ranked in my top 3 more like my top 10 of most addictive games. Even though it has 4 games within it, I can find myself losing interest after playing it for so long, that's just me though. A lot of people play it and can't get enough it's like they play and there is no time limit. With me though I love it a lot but I can't play it as much as a lot of other users can. I can play it for a couple of hours at most and then I have to put down the remote. Then I probably won't play it until a couple of days or even weeks later. I think it might be because I have played it so much that the game has just became boring to me in all of playing it to much. Story : 10 The Story is HUGE. Like I mentioned earlier, this game has 4 games total so there is tons of levels tons of storyline and plenty of hours to it as well. Some of it is a game where you win levels then you defeat a boss, kind of like regular Super Mario, but it has a lot of variety in it's story that will keep the player meaning me and anyone else who plays on the edge of their seat just to see what's next. Depth : 10 The Depth in the game is increasingly high as you have many levels, different games all in one you have tons of fast paced action, tough bosses to defeat and just fun game play. It's pretty unique how the creators of this game came up with it. I wouldn't of came up with it myself and I have a huge imagination and mind or at least, some would say that to me. Difficulty : 6 When I first played this game it was pretty difficult I guess you could say, I mean I was young when I first played but being young has nothing to do with how difficult a game is most of the time at least. I found myself stuck on different levels but like always I ended up winning or passing that level which was the best feeling I could have. I really LOVE a challenge, no game is good to me unless it has some kind of challenge besides a couple of games that I can think of now every other game that doesn't have challenge I haven't really enjoyed them much at all. I would and would not recommend this game to others. Some would be like okay wait, you post how much you enjoy it but yet you wouldn't recommend it but I did say I would 'and' would not. The thing is this game is one of those games that some people would call not interesting or 'I lost interest'. It is very cool and unique but it just seems to me like they threw a bunch of the same types of games in to just one game. I know a lot of people would disagree with me on that but honestly it's just my opinion. I feel like they could of created a new type of game and place 4 new games within, even though this is just a Super Nintendo game. I myself still enjoy it even though I don't feel the same as most users who play it do. I just honestly think they could have done somewhat better. No matter how much story or depth there is to me, sometimes games just don't make the cut in my book. I would recommend it to most though because most are not me lol. If your looking for long game play this is one of those games but once you play it over and over you will eventually lose interest pretty much like I did, except I played it ALOT and I'm what some would call 'different' but hey everyone has there own thing.

I always loved how this was the first game to internationally release the then forgotten lost levels game. I have the original lot levels on Virtual Console.
A great review. I noticed you are trying to dish out reviews to take my yellow, huh? Besides that, you do so well, that you don't have to improve on reviewing any further. A great review.

Stevie 764 : Nope actually I'm not trying to win yellow, I didn't even realize I had any points :/... I just recently started writing reviews because I want to contribute more to the site, and honestly I didn't realize how much I liked writing. You will probably see me writing more reviews like I did today throughout the year if I keep liking it as much. |

I was never a real buyer of the Super Mario All Stars, but I did enjoy the pack, along with the Super Mario World game as well. It was definitely a remake that is worth replaying, unlike the orignal games, since it has a save feature. Thank god. Also, once again, another good review, Bints! You seem to have gotten the hang of things here. Now I am sure when you decide to compete, you can get a good amount of points by doing stuff like this alone. Well done. |

Much like SMB All Stars had upgraded all SMB games to SNES style graphics and effects. They should have took up a further notch by making a modern version with voice samples. Only SMB2 USA and SMB 3 took advantage of it with the SMAdvance series. |

Oh my gosh, this was definitely my favorite game for the SNES by far! I absolutely loved playing this game in my younger days. I love games that have more than one game in them. My favorite game was the Lost Levels game. I felt like I was playing a totally revamped version of Super Mario Bros. Anyways, about your review, I loved reading it. I love how you provided each part of the game in great detail. I don't know if you just forgot to give the game an overall grade (I see you graded it a 10), but I don't think it mattered because I didn't even notice it. Great job on your game review, and good luck with any future ones. By the way, congrats on securing the yellow jersey Anyways, about your review, I loved reading it.
