Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
If you were looking for a character to associate with Nintendo and the Game Boy, the likelihood is that today you'd say Pokémon--but that hasn't always been the case, and in Super Mario Advance Mario, the once king of Nintendo, is making a comeback on the next-generation Game Boy Advance.

Based on the age-old formula of the Super Mario Brothers series, you play the usual host of characters from Mario himself to Princess Peach and even the little mushroom guy. The basic premise is fairly simple: run along the simple platforms, kill the bugs and monsters in your path, and get to the end. It's a game that's very easy to understand, yet not one that's easy to complete, and, like so many games before it, makes you want to come back for more every time. And with over 30 odd levels, it's sure to keep you busy for that time.

A great title for all ages, Mario will please grown-ups and children alike as they enjoy the cute graphics and the catchy soundtrack. Probably one of the biggest titles of the Game Boy Advance launch, Mario is one of those games that you just have to have in your collection. --Jason Denwood

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Yawn
This game is not very fun. The levels are difficult and the character slips around a lot. I like to play against the bosses.
There is also the classic Mario game, which will trigger tears of nostalgia for 20-somethings, but is boring for me! Basically, the gameplay is this:
Go to level one. Play a boss. Go to level two. Play a boss.
And then this:
Whack the characters. Play again.
Wouldn't recommend.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Another brilliant Super Mario game
This game is very good and will keep you amused for hours. It sometimes gets a little boring but for the majority of the time it is great. It is really good having both the games on it because it means you have an option of which game to play. It must be good as I am still playing it now on my DS and I got it soon after it came out so it was a good buy. This is a must buy for anyone who has a DS or a Game Boy Advance.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Super Mario Advance
Super Mario Advance; Vegetable Tugging Mania!
This is a really great start to Mario on the GBA. First it's new, different, and fresh with very different characters. In this Mario Plat-former you get to play as Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Toad. Also having distinctively different powers. Like Power, Jump and weight.... In this there are about seventy levels all with a different aspect, also plenty of hidden things for example these urn things you can move Into and get a key!
When you have finished or on the way you have to collect A coins. Another different enjoyable part, which is not thrown In to lengthen the game. Every coin you collect is 1% and there are about three in each level.
Also after that is another mode, (I have ... Read More:



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Retro gaming updated
I played this back when it was available for the Nes and thought it would be nice to relive old memories on a new game system, looking back I was either a better player or this game was made much harder than the original.

The graphics look excellent, brilliantly updated and the sound has the addition of little snippets of speech. All in all this is a very good re-make of an older game.

It should be noted this was never originally designed as a mario game but the characters were included for the american and british audiences, with the original Japanese mario 2 being like the original mario.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Mmm.. not the usual brilliance
Basically this is maybe the worst Mario game I've played (but take into consideration that ANY Mario game is top-notch). Nothing new, no suprises, the gimmicks like the 2-in-1 game and extra characters are short lived. The game is also pretty easy. So, when the GBA was first released then yes by all means you should of got it, but in the light of Sonic, Super Mario Advance 2, Wario Land 4, this pales in comparision.
