“Dear God, please let this horrible game be a figment of my imagination”
Nope, it’s real. What an unbelievable piece of overrated garbage Super Mario Bros. 3 is. For the life of me I don’t get the appeal of this game. Owing to each of the eight dull worlds it’s just the same thing every time: run to the end of each and every extremely small, uncreative level collecting worthless crap so you can go on to the next small, uncreative level. Super Mario Bros. 3 is complete monkey poop. It really is. Not anything excellent about this game at all. No reason for Mario or video game fans to remember this crappy adventure. No reason for this game to exist. Thank God there are sensible people out there such as myself to give you the honest truth.
Let’s get right to the point and talk about all the stinky things:
One, and this is the largest reason Super Mario Bros. 3 isn’t any excellent. You can only play as Mario and Luigi. In Super Mario Bros. 2 you can play as the Princess and Toad in addition to Mario and Luigi. Not so here. In this game, Mario and Luigi don’t even have anything unique to separate the two, so they are basically the same exact person (except Mario is red and Luigi is green). Remember how high Luigi can jump in Super Mario Bros. 2? Well now he jumps just like Mario. Absolutely no reason for this. If anything, Luigi should have MANY more fascinating things about him this time around since, after all, Super Mario Bros. 3 comes AFTER Super Mario Bros. 2 and you’d reflect the most most likely thing would be to continue adding MORE things with each new series. But in this case, you get less. I guess Nintendo FORGOT to make Luigi stand apart from Mario.
Another conundrum: this game is so freakin’ predictable. Gee, after the desert world I go to… a water world? You don’t say! What? There’s an ICE world and a plant world coming up? No way! And what’s THIS I see? The final world will be BIG DARK EVIL FIRE WORLD? I didn’t see THAT coming. Thanks Nintendo, for making Mario fans look like complete idiots. Way to go.
Other honest problems become noticeable after a couple hours of playtime such as the fact that you have to do so much dull jumping in this game. You have to jump on top of (or over) SO many things that it becomes an resolution chore after world 3 (if you even MAKE it that far without shutting off the game, that is). If you find anything exciting about jumping over pipes or jumping on top of goombas or picking up and kicking buzzy beetles, then I recommend in quest of qualified help.
Ok, what else makes Super Mario Bros. 3 suck so much? It can’t get any worse, right? Yes it can. After you beat the game a message comes up on the screen that says “Thank you, but our princess is in another castle. Just kidding, hahaha”. You mean to tell me, after all that long, hard and tedious work making it to the very end, Nintendo is going to joke around and make like the adventure isn’t over yet? Before the “just kidding” part, you might very well rip apart your controller or punch a hole in your TV screen all because Nintendo wants to play around and pretend there’s still more to the adventure. I can’t even reflect of appropriate words to describe how mad this makes me. Tears of rage are nearly dripping down my face. Nintendo NEVER should have done that. I bet that most people who first seen that message really thought the princess was in another castle and came THIS close to killing the next-door living thing next to them. Terrible Nintendo.
And guess what? You have to face one of Bowser’s kids at the end of every world. I’m not kidding. I was honestly expecting to fight Bowser’s WIFE before fighting him, but it never happened. That’s probably for the better. Who knows how horrific she looks.
I’m still trying to figure out what everyone sees in this game. It’s ancient and forgettable. Honestly, I reflect nowadays the only people who delight in Super Mario Bros. 3 are grown-up folks whose children have went away to college or to start a family, and they left behind their NES and Super Mario Bros. 3 cartridge so their parents had something to do. All these grown-up folks miraculously happen to delight in the game so now EVERYONE acts like it’s the best game of all-time. Well it’s not.

This game is my least favorite mario game of them all.
It has terrible graphics, especially on the NES, but even on the SNES on Super Mario All Stars, this game just sucks. the music sucks. the levels suck. the only thing excellent that might come out of this game is the different “forms” or mario.
P.S. If you haven’t already, but Super Mario Brothers 2 for the NES because that game i a lot better, but beware, on the GBA that game has irritating voices added on it, play the NES one.

The only reason I keep this game with my pool is because I like to show off that I have every Mario trilogy game. For one thing, the fact of going around on a 2-dimensional level screen does not entertain me. There is no real action, has clunky game play, and has nearly impossible challenges. Try it from a friend or connection first, just to see your opinion.

Many people praise this game to no end, and I honestly reflect it’s just the “hardcore” thing to do. Super Mario Bros 3 (SMB3) was a noble effort back in the day, and really pushes the thought of what an NES game can be with intricate level layouts, maps, characters, items, and play mechanics. It also has a splendid graphical stylishness that’s uniquely its own. No other SMB game has ever looked liked this.
But when it comes to actual gameplay, it leaves me a bit wanting. My largest complaint is the levels are *really* small. Even when later levels try to present you with challenges you can often just force your way owing to and still make it, because safety isn’t far away. Nintendo chose quantity over quality, as there’s certainly a lot of them. But when you don’t have enough meat on any one level to bite into, it makes the game hard to get into.
Another huge let down are the bosses. They’re all nearly identical (there’s a template “sub-boss” form that all sub-bosses base their patterns on and a template “level boss” form that all level bosses base their patterns on. All sub/level bosses use the same (or extremely similiar) sprites too. All easily squashed with the standard 3 hits Miyamoto always requires.
I reflect SMB3 is just a case of Nintendo getting too caught up in the interface, items, graphics, etc and kinda forgetting about the gameplay. Try SMB2 instead. Either the vastly weird American version that’s decidedly un-Mario but an incredibly well made platformer all the same, or the Japanese SMB2 which is basically SMB1 on steroids. Both much better sports meeting than SMB3 is.

I LOVED THIS GAME SO MUCH!! I beat the game when I was 3-years-ancient, and have loved it ever since. Since new NES versions have came out over the years, I bought the GameBoy Advance version of it to show my appreciation!!
