DESCRIPTION
Mario's first Game Boy adventure, Super Mario Land looks and plays much like the original, groundbreaking Super Mario Bros.. Mario is out to save Princess Daisy instead of Princess Toadstool, and he can throw superballs instead of fireballs, but the side-scrolling, turtle-trouncing, coin-collecting action is much the same. Super Mario Land owners will notice several additions to the SMB formula, including stone statues (and other new enemies), bonus rounds, and levels where you pilot an airplane or a submarine. The graphics are too small (even for a handheld game), and the game is easy to beat (even though it has no save points), but gameplay is fittingly super. ~ Brett Alan Weiss, All Game Guide

“This game was more challenging then the Super Mario Bros. for the NES, and way different. Bowser wasn't the main enemy and Mario used a submarine and flying jet. Something that Mario hasn't done in again to the best of my knowledge.”

“Classic Mario. The plane and submarine levels introduce something new to the series, but most of the game stays true to it's roots. New enemies that are never heard from again. Worth a try if you have an old GB around. ”

“Simple Jump'N'Run for the GameBoy. I don't know, how often I finished it, but it's perfect for a quick game with the GB!”

“Great Mario game. One of the few Mario games I could consistently beat. As I recall, if you beat it twice in a row, there was a stage select trick so you could skip to your favorite stage (e.g. the Airplane stage or the Submarine stage...) .”
