EndOfDiscOne 10/05/25 4:40:27 PM #1:	Im sure I played it a little in the 90s, but I was never very interested in it. I always assumed it was a poor mans SMB. I decided to play it on Switch and am surprised at how much fun it is. Good music, varied levels and bosses, not too difficult. Id say this game is better than SMB despite the length. The song that plays in the first levels is very familiar. Do I just know this from Smash? --- I am the Cheese! I am the best character on the show!

CRON 10/05/25 4:43:18 PM #2:	I always enjoyed SML even with how short it was. Mario Land 2 was a huge step up but for a handheld game from 1989 it's perfectly fine. If you've never played the DX romhack I recommend it. Gives it an entirely refreshed look while fixing some of the more annoying parts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-Sn8CGOOwk --- It is what it is, man. <cite>CRON posted [p:986635121] in Super Mari...

The_Popo 10/05/25 4:49:51 PM #4:	As a kid, I was never able to beat it. Then in my 30s, I played it on 3DS. Was shocked at how easy and short it was. A very good game for the Gameboy (and SML2 is unbelievably good for the Gameboy). --- Live action Hungry Hungry Hippos though, now that was a sport. ~Aeon Azuran <cite>The_Popo posted [p:986635187] in Super Mari...

Trumble 10/05/25 6:29:27 PM #12:	If you think SML is good, wait until you play SML2.

EmbraceOfDeath 10/05/25 6:32:32 PM #14:	The music is great. The game is also fun, but it really hurts it a lot that there are so many repeated sections of levels when there are so few levels to begin with. --- No more shall man have wings to bear him to paradise.

ReturnOfDevsman 10/05/25 7:04:33 PM #17:	I passed on that game for my last several chances. I had a list of like twenty or thirty retro games I was going to get from Gamestop website way back. But combined, they were an absurd, like, $150-ish, so I picked I think four and passed on the rest. Then I had a chance with the 3DS eShop closure, but again I had a lot of games that totalled like $200, so I picked about ten. Of course, this time I knew it was really my last chance, because post-2020, the retro vidja market is stupid and I've no doubt an actual cart for Land is more than I spent on those fourteen combined, lol. Unless you luck out and find it locally, which is not going to happen. --- Arguing on CE be all like: https://youtu.be/JpRKrs67lOs?si=kPGA2RCKVHTdbVrJ <cite>ReturnOfDevsman posted [p:986636604] in Super Mari...
