This fourth installment of the Super Mario Advance series once again revisits a classic Mario game while
adding a few enhancements to appeal to veteran players. Super Mario Bros. 3, at one time the biggest selling video game in
history, is the subject of choice for this cartridge, featuring updated graphics and sound resembling the version introduced
in the Super Mario All-Stars compilation on Super NES. New speech, the ability to save progress to battery, and a few surprises
are in store for those familiar with the 8-bit platform game.
Mario and Luigi must stop Bowser and his mischievous children
from turning the local populace into animals, kicking off an adventure spanning eight themed worlds: Grass Land, Desert Hill,
Sea Side, Big Island, The Sky, Iced Land, Pipe Maze, and Castle of Koopa. Mario can don special power suits that grant him
the ability to fly, hop like a frog, toss hammers, and freeze into an immobile statue for protection. As in previous Super
Mario Advance games, up to four players can compete in a standalone version of the original Mario Bros., and those owning
the e-Reader peripheral will be able to swipe cards to unlock additional levels or special challenges.
