Super Mario All Stars on Wii is a port of a SNES game which is a simple collection of four Mario games remade with a 16-bit facelift. were among my favorite games, and while tastes may shifted in adulthood, it can’t be denied how great so many Mario games are.
Recent viewing of the new Mario movie was a reminder that once upon a time Super Mario Bros. Nintendo consoles were generally more wholesome and there were tons of family-friendly games. In more youthful and innocent times, the gorefests intended for mature audiences only would never be allowed near a Nintendo console. This doesn’t mean that there’s a shortage of great games that cater to younger audiences, it’s just that those seem less personally interesting. We even have a beige computer with a floppy disk drive.Īs an adult the majority of newer games that cater to personal interest are rated M or T. All the classic systems are down there collecting dust, so in an effort to improve the cleanliness of our work space, we dust off these old consoles every so often and put an old game through its paces, just to make sure everything stays in working order.
