About this game

All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros. is a Famicom Disk System special edition built on the original Super Mario Bros. rules. It rearranges selected stages and replaces several characters with personalities and imagery associated with the Japanese radio program. Running, jumping, stomping, fire flowers, and hidden blocks remain familiar, while the altered course layouts provide most of the playable difference. Veterans can read its controls immediately and still face remixed challenges, but the edition introduces little mechanical novelty and much of its cultural appeal depends on recognizing the broadcast personalities. This description covers the original fc release represented by this catalog entry and does not assume conveniences introduced by later ports.

Collected in series
