Three Very Popular Super Mario Games

By Steve Holt


In the past half century, there have been numerous game systems that have been created and put out on the market. One of the most popular ones was made by Nintendo. The model of this system was called the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). To this very day, Super Mario games are still very popular, as they are the best-selling games of all time. In the past several decades, there are many of them that have been created for different systems.

The Super Mario Brothers game came with the NES. This game has a two-player mode. The good guy has to face many obstacles, some of them including difficult paths with enemies and high jumps. The object of the game is to save princess Toadstool from King Koopa, the bad guy.

The character travels through the levels in a left to right direction. During the levels, the character gets points, obtains extra lives, and gets various power-ups. Some of the power-ups include the mushroom, which enlarges the character; and there's also a flower, which gives the character firepower. With the firepower, the character can shoot most the enemies off the screen.

Super Mario 2 is unlike the first. Two versions of the second game exist. One is the Lost Levels and the other is Super Mario 2. Lost Levels was only released in Japan due to concerns that the game was too difficult for other people in other countries.

The U. S. Version of the second game is based on a nightmare that the protagonist has. After the game is beaten, the protagonist's nightmare is discovered. Players have the option of choosing one of four protagonists. Each protagonist has different abilities. One major example is that some can jump higher than others. Additionally, princess Toadstool has the ability to glide in the air for a short period of time.

In this game, enemies are destroyed differently. Instead of jumping on them and squishing them, a player must pick up an item and toss it at an enemy. Another distinct difference that this game has is that there are no question boxes. If a player wants to get a power up, a magic potion must be found. The player must drop it on the ground, enter the door, and go into a secret little world where the power-up is located.

One unique thing about this game is the final boss, Wort. In order to defeat him, the selected player is required to throw vegetables in his mouth. After Toad is defeated, the door opens and the player enters a ceremony. Shortly after, the main character wakes up from the nightmare.

Super Mario brothers 3 is another major game in the series. This game is considered to be the best game in this series. This game resembles the first more than it does the second. A two-player mode is available.

One interesting aspect about this game is the power-ups. The mushroom and the flower are of the same function as they are in the first game. However, there is a leaf and it turns the character into a raccoon. There's also a hammer brother suit, a frog suit, or tenuki suit. Each power-up does something different.

Opportunities to collect power-ups throughout the game are ample. The nice thing about this game is that the power-ups can be used on the map where the levels are selected. This is the only game in the series that offers this option. This option makes it much easier to beat this game.

This series of games for NES are thought by many to be the most popular ever created. As a matter of fact, these games are the foundation for the Super Mario games that are created today.
