Feature: Super Mario Bros. Deluxe (often shortened as Super Mario Bros. DX and abbreviated SMBDX) is an update of the 1985 NES title Super Mario Bros. It was released in 1999 for Game Boy Color. The game itself was left relatively unmodified from the original NES version, omitting the graphical updates of the Super Mario All-Stars version. The only differences in the "Original 1985" mode were an on-cart save feature, a world map, a fix for the "minus world" glitch, moving past the left border, and the ability to play as Luigi at any time. The cartridge also featured an unlockable re-release of the 1986 Japanese sequel, Super Mario Bros. 2, as well as add-ons such as a Challenge Mode, a Toy Box, and a Vs. Mode.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is what Mario is all about!!!!
It has felt like a long time since I played this classic game back in the NES days and, I thought the gameboy advance version was a little too pricey. Recently I took a second look at this game because I thought that it would just be a second rate game since it was for the gameboy color. I could not be more wrong in thinking that since I saw the images of this game and the addition of the lost levels, I decided to recently buy this game on this website. Amazon service is great but as for the game I played and passed every challenge in this game and, it brought back the classic game just as I remembered it. I had a blast with all of the challenges and, I still can't stop playing this game. I was able to relive the challenge of the original game, played the lost levels and the extra challenges for the very first time and, I can say this is the true original plus much more. If you're like me and not sure what to expect from this game but, you miss the classic just like I did, you can try it from someone you know or you can just buy this game for yourself. You won't be disappointed with this game.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - IF YOU DON'T OWN AN ORIGINAL NES THIS GAME COMES CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL 8 OUT OF 10
I bought this game probably 5-6 years ago and I'm only two levels away from completing it which is very frustrating. This game basically looks the same as the Nintendo original and plays the same. The levels may not seem like much, but they are a lot of fun to go through and you really get an idea of what 8-bit technology was like. This game also serves as an example of how games don't need high-tech machinery like Blu-Ray and other high-def technologies to be good, all they need is a talented group of dedicated people to make a good game despite old and simple technology. The game is still very entertaining and quirky. The storyline is still the same old damsel in distress sort of thing, but, can you think of Mario games having anything different aside from games like Super Mario World for SNES? Still, time has worn at this game somewhat but it's still a classic that should and never will be forgotten. I mean who doesn't like the memorable adventures of this Italian plumber? One thing that disturbs me these days about Nintendo is how they make such questionable games instead of returning most of the time to the simple classic games they made. Nowadays they seem more focused on delivering games about fitness then making the games they used to.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fun, but not the same as the classic SMB
This game was great fun, and a few extras added onto it, but some things from the original SMB were left out. Instead of simply going through the levels, there is a map screen where you can change from Mario to Luigi. Playing as Luigi, you notice that his old outfit is gone! Instead it is Mario's outfit with green overalls and hat. However, when you collect a Fire Flower, Luigi dons his classic "Super" outfit. This was probably to determine Fire Mario from Fire Luigi.

Also, the saving. If you save, you lose all of your points/coins when you restart. Not much to complain about, but still.

Lastly is the feel. I know I'm playing on a Gameboy Advance, but it doesn't have the feel of a classic NES game. You can't feel the NES controller while looking at a ginormous TV screen. This leads to alot of screw-ups.

Some things were good. Like the ability to unlock a mini-game race called "You vs. Boo" and "Super Mario Bros. 2" from Japan. It was basically referred to as "Super Mario Bros. for Super Players" because it was deemed too hard for North American Players. You also get Challenge Mode, where you go around collecting coins and Yoshi eggs. This is all enough to hold you off for about 1 week straight.

Great game, recommended for sort-of-modern day Mario fans. Recommended buying the original for classic gamers.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best game ever gets remade
This version not only includes the complete original game, but has a VS, Challenge, and even a "Toy Box". It even includes the Japanese SMB2(but you have to unlock it)! Best game for the Color, if not the best game ever! I still play it today after I got it in 1999 (six years ago!). Buy this game now !!!!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This is better & cooler than the Nintendo version
WOW! Mario was good before but this is just awsome!! Finally Mario comes to Gameboy!!! THIS GAME ROCKS!!!!
