Super Mario Bros 3 Review by: Itachi9695 - 9/10

NES Gold!
Greetings ladies and gentlemen to the finale of Mario Month. I know I said I would end with Super Mario World, but I figure I can just save that for later. I also want to give that game the focus I feel that it deserves and I don't feel like I can do that in the time I have left. So Super Mario World will be the start of Mario Month 2, which will probably be in a few months. Anyway, back on track. Super Mario Bros. 3 certainly had quite the build up. All the commercials, the infamous movie, The Wizard (which, by the way I've never seen, but from what I've heard I don't want to), and probably a heck of a lot more. This game certainly looked to be Mario's, and quite possibly Nintendo's, most ambitious game. We in America got the game in 1990, Japan got it 2 years earlier, and I am happy to say that it didn't disappoint. This game is often considered the greatest NES game of all time. Some even call it the best Mario game of all time. While I have to admit that I disagree with the latter, it is certainly the best NES game I've ever played. Why is this game so praised?  What do people find so awesome about this game? Let's dig a little deeper and find out.

Graphics
     This is probably the best-looking NES title ever. The graphics are simply amazing for the NES. The animations are far smoother than the other two games, and the sprites seem more detailed than ever. Everything is easier to see, especially given the fact that the HUD is actually on the bottom of the screen, giving more room for the actual level. The levels and backgrounds are all done very nicely. The game certainly gives off a theater type feel with its art design. Certain platforms are bolted in, some are hanging from a ceiling, and they even make shadows on the backdrop. This has lead many to believe that the entire game was built around it being a play, but that's another topic.

Sound
     Every track in the game is just epicness and this game certainly contains some of the best music on the NES. The over world themes, the level themes, and especially the airship theme. The airship theme has become probably one of the most recognized pieces of music in Mario history. It's had it fair share of reuses and remixes, each just as epic as the original. It's probably my favorite track in the game. The soundtrack is also far more varied than the original Super Mario Bros., containing far more tracks and variations. I can easily say that the Super Mario Bros. 3 soundtrack is the absolute best on the system.

Addictiveness
     With tons of levels and power ups, there's certainly a lot that's going to drive you to come back to this game. While I personally don't come back to it too often, it's not because the game sucks, it's just that I have other things to focus on. I don't have as much time to focus on this game as I would like. Either way, it's definitely a fun game that I'm sure Mario fans will be sure to come back to.

Story
     Ah, the good old plot line, here you are again. Oh how I missed the Bowser kidnaps Peach story...wait, that doesn't happen until later in the game? What is the world coming to? In all seriousness though, the story goes as such; An evil spell has been cast on the kings of various lands in the Mushroom Kingdom, or are they all separate kingdoms? I don't even know at this point. This spell has transformed these kings into various creatures. Mario needs to collect the magic scepters from each world in order to transform the kings back into their normal selves. The scepters are in the possession of Bowser's Koopalings, who you fight at the end of each world on their airship. A good enough plot and it's certainly a little better than Peach getting kidnapped right off the bat.

Depth
     There are 8 Worlds total, wit each containing a varied amount of levels. Each World is set in a different setting. You can travel through almost any environment. From Grassland to Desert, from the sky to a fiery pit, and so on. Each level usually has it's own little gimmick as well, making the gameplay very enjoyable. There is also a plethora of power-ups. In addition to the Mushroom and Fire Flower from previous games, you have the Frog Suit, which allows you to swim more easily, the super leaf, which gives Mario a raccoon tail, allowing him to fly, and even more. I think the main selling point for this game is the sheer amount of stuff it has for you to do. It's probably the NES game that has the most depth.

Gameplay/Controls
     I'm pretty sure you all know how to play a 2D Mario game at this point, so I'm just going to tell you about how Mario handles. For the most part, Mario handles quite nicely, although at times I feel its a little bit too slippery. Now, it's nowhere near as slippery as Luigi's Lost Levels controls, but it is a little bit difficult landing on smaller platforms at times. It's not a major issue, but I though it was at least worth mentioning. As a whole, the game does control quite nicely though, and I'm willing to look past that small nitpick to see the greatness this game truly is.

Overall, Super Mario Bros. 3 is the hands-down, absolute best NES game of all time. With the best soundtrack in the NES library and possibly the most power-ups in any Mario game ever developed, I give Super Mario Bros. 3 a 9 out of 10. Well, with Mario Month out of the way, I think it's time to celebrate the most recently announced Sonic game, Sonic Lost World, by doing Sonic Month 2! (Not to be confused with Sonic 2 Month, which is from here on known as simply Sonic Month) I'm skipping straight to the modern era, and it shall begin with my review of...Sonic...'06. Now, if you'll excuse me I'm going to prepare for mess of a game, but until then, PEACE OUT!

Super Mario Bros 3 Game Description

Bowser is back, and along with the Bowser kids, he's out to spoil Mario's day once again. This time, along with nabbing the Princess, the Bowser crew have also taken the magic wands from the Kings of each land and turned them into creatures.
It's up to Mario and Luigi to get back the magic wands, defeat Bowser, and save the Princess all before the day is done.Old and new power-ups abound in each level for the Mario Brothers, including the return of the Super Mushroom and Fire Flower, plus the new power-ups including the frog suit, the warp flute, and the most important of all, the leaf, which allows the player to fly and attack enemies with your tail.

Super Mario Bros 3 Cheat Codes

28 P-Wings

Complete the game and watch the ending. Now start a new game. You got 28 P-Wings!


Fight Bowser With No Fireballs

In Bowsers castle at the end of the game, it is possible to make it so he DOES NOT SPIT FIRE AT YOU. This trick is easy and only requires getting to world 8 with a P-wing. First off, use your P-wing on the map before entering the Final Castle. YOU MUST GET TO BOWSER INTACT. If you get to the Bowser fight room and the Bricks that he smashes through are not flush with the rest of the floor, then you are in the wrong room. Now, when you reach Bowsers room, FLY straight up and to the left. You will be able to walk on a wall above the screen. Drop down on the other side. You will be in another room to Fight Bowser in. When you drop, you will be on a door that opens to the princess. Ignore this room and DO NOT GO TOO FAR TO THE LEFT. If you do, you will have to fight Bowser and he will still have his Fire Balls. Fly back over the wall to the first room you were in and start the Bowser fight. He will still throw his head back and make the sound of spitting fire, but nothing will come out.


Infinite 1-Ups

Get to World 1-2 as Raccoon Mario, with the tail. Climb the hill at the beginning and jump over the horizontal pipe. Stand there for a bit and a whole bunch of Goombas will start walking out of the pipe. Wait for 2-3 of them to come out of the pipe, then jump ontop of one and HOLD A to fly high into the air. Now that you are in the air, use your tail to slowly glide down from the air. On you landing, be sure to land on a second Goomba. Repeat this process for as long as you can. Eventually, the points you get for hitting each Goomba will turn into extra lives. This can be done for as long as you desire to do so.


Make player 'hide' behind scenery

To ''hide'' behind scenery, simply hold down for a couple seconds while standing on a white block. Then your player can ''hide'' behind scenery for about thirty seconds.


Morph a wandering hammer brother into a treasure ship.

To turn a wandering hammer brother (the ones that walk about on the world map) into a white ship full of coins, collect a number of coins that is a multiple of 11. Make the tens digit in your score match the multiple of 11. Stop the timer at the end of the stage that you are playing in on an even number.

One combination would be: 11 coins, 9,310 as your score, and the timer at 104. This only works in worlds 1, 3, 5, and 6.


See a different Thank You letter from the King

Get through an airship and defeat the boss as a frog, Hammer Mario, or Tannooki, and you'll receive a letter from the King that reads a little differently.


To get the N-Spade Card Game

To get the N-Spade card game to appear on the World Map. You must do gain 80,000 points as one player, and successfully beat the stage that you broke the 80,000 points with.


Warp to Level 8

You could just use the warp whistle at level 7...

If you want to go straight to level 8, you must use a Warp Whistle to proceed to the Warp Zone, then use another warp whistle IN THE WARP ZONE. You will be transported to the level 8 pipe at the bottom of the screen.


Warp Whistle Locations

Level 1-3
Find the white block near the end and crouch on to of it for 5 seconds. Then proceed to the goal, and go behind it. You will find a Mushroom house with a Whistle.

Level 1 Fortress
Fly over the top of the level when you find the first door with your raccoon powers, and find a hidden door at the far right on the ceiling. It leads to a warp whistle

Level 2 Hammer Brother
Get the Hammer from one of the Hammer Brothers here and use it to destroy the rock at the upper right corner of the Level 2 Map. Then engage the hammer brother on the other side. You should get a chest with a Warp Whistle.


White Mushroom Houses

If you get enough coins in a certain course, you can get a White Mushroom House!

A White Mushroom House in worlds 1,3,5,7 have P Wings
A White Mushroom House in worlds 2,4,6 have Anchors

Levels and required coins:

1-4 (44 coins)
2-2 (30 coins)
3-8 (42? coins)
4-2 (22 coins)
5-5 (28 coins)
6-7 (78 coins)
7-2 (42? coins)
