So I stumbled across my SMB Deluxe cart recently and starting playing through it again... yes, I know, there are much better ways to play it on handhelds these days, but I do find myself wishing Nintendo did a few more of these mild updates. I'm starting to think that with the advent of the Virtual Console, most remakes of classic titles will cease.
That's probably a good thing, but there is something interesting about playing through different versions of a game. There are at least four different versions of Super Mario Bros. out there (3, if you discount the arcade title), each with a slightly different feel to it.

I liked SMB DX for GBC. It had so many updates it really was worth the price.
-
SMBDX is the foremost reason that I am good at SMB. I got every single medal and also suffered the dreaded Yoshi is hungry... (http://www.themushroomkingdom.net/smbdx_bugs.shtml) glitch.
It still plays the Star Trek theme when I turn it on, which makes me smile.
Oh yeah, I also remember going to the very end of the calender and putting an event on the final day marked The Apocalypse.
-
SMBDX was great. Too bad my cart erased all of the stuff I unlocked on it. I guess I'll just have to play through it... and get the Boo race thing... and Super Mario Bros. for Super Players.
But yeah, I had a lot of fun, I'd like to see more games like this.

SMBDX was the only version of SMB that I ever beat. This was mainly because it was the only version I played enough to beat. And I sure played it a lot-- I remember maaxing out Mario's lives.

Several years ago, I lent my mother my GBC and SMBDX. She still has them. That's what I get for giving a veteran a trip down memory lane. She does play it once in awhile and she even has to get my attention every time she catches the Koopa Troopa in 3-1. A feat that I could never do.
Great. I feel like such a loser now...

In many ways SMB DX is my favorite version. I wonder why more games (I'm looking at you NSMB) don't have similar medal systems. Online leader boards would also be nice. I wonder if we'll ever have a GB/GBC channel on Wii.

SMBDX was my first GB game. I think the extras were a nice addition to the game, especially Challenge Mode, which I spent FOREVER trying to complete. It was a great challenge trying to find the Red Coins and Yoshi Eggs and whatnot.
The inclusion of the Lost Levels was nice as well, but why didn't they include Worlds 9 through D...?

They did. You played it wrong.

I can't find the thread where we put these, but you inspired me to make this

Even though it was made because of something I said...I laughed. ^_^

No, they didn't.

You're right. I was thinking of my imported SMB2 version. Oops.

I knew you were right, but rather than say it, I thought I'd make a picture :-)
