One of the best things about the Game Boy Color is that it's basically an original Nintendo Entertainment System that can fit in your pocket. What this means for gamers is that many of the great games for the classic system are being ported to the Game Boy Color, giving us a chance to re-play (or in some cases discover) the best game titles from the '80s.

Nintendo's own Super Mario Bros. Deluxe is among the first of these conversions, and it certainly remains one of the best. Actually, calling this game a conversion really doesn't do it justice. This version actually contains more levels than the original game, including the entire Japanese version and a slew of extras (such as a two-player mode).

The controls in this game are easy to grasp--even for novice gamers. All Mario can do is jump (and shoot fireballs with the right power- ups), but it is amazing to see how much gameplay can be squeezed from these simple actions when the controls work in direct harmony with a player's thoughts. The only element of this game that could have been better is that the Game Boy Color's screen isn't quite large enough to show the entire layout of the original game screen, so players may occasionally need to press up and down on the control pad to see some offscreen action. While this can be distracting, it ultimately has minimal impact on gameplay. If you are looking for the quintessential side-scrolling platform game, you can't do much better than Super Mario Bros. Deluxe. --T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

  • Classic side-scrolling action gameplay
  • Lots of extras
Cons:
  • Screen isn't quite big enough to show the entire layout of the game

The classic gone portable
5 Stars
The classic gone portable
I'll just cut straight to the point: this is the game that made me a gamer back in the 80s. Bringing the magic from the original NES onto the Game Boy Color can only be called "perfection."Not only does it come complete with the 1985 classic version, but it also includes The Lost Levels, which was only released worldwide in Super Mario All-stars; You vs. Boo, where you race Boo; a VS mode.....well, I won't spoil any of the game's details.One thing worth mentioning is the screen: of course it goes without saying that it's much smaller than a TV monitor, but due to its limited size, you have the option to press SELECT to scroll the screen forward or backward.If you have a Game Boy Color (or Advance), this should be in your collection; heck, even if you don't have one, this makes for a great collectible.
