The original Super Mario Bros. is just about as ubiquitous as video games get. The series has diverged a bit from its roots, so it’s nice to see a game that goes back to what kicked it off: somewhat simple, straightforward fun.
Story? Nothing too unexpected, princess gets kidnapped, Mario has to save her.
There are some new additions, like the mushroom that makes Mario huge, and the blue turtle shell that he can duck into and slide around.
I don’t really have a whole lot to say about it except that I really enjoyed it. Much more than Super Mario Sunshine, but we can get into that another day.
