Super Mario Bros. Deluxe

Super Mario Bros. Deluxe is a platform game released on the Game Boy Color in 1999 as a remake of the 1985 NES game Super Mario Bros., also including its 1986 Family Computer Disk System sequel, Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, as a hidden reward. It was released fourteen years after the original Super Mario Bros. The game was never released in Japan for the normal Game Boy Color Game Pak but rather the Nintendo Power cartridge. This game was initially released for the 3DS's Virtual Console in Japan, Europe, and Australia in 2014, as part of a special offer, and is now available to download for everyone in Europe, Australia, and North America with an added cost. The game received critical acclaim for a number of reasons, including bringing back the original Super Mario Bros. for a whole younger generation to experience, especially to a handheld that allowed players to enjoy Super Mario Bros. wherever they went, the inclusion of the previously rarely seen Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, and the great abundance of featured unlockables. This game also serves as a successor to Donkey Kong on the Game Boy and as a precursor for the Super Mario Advance series of rereleases, Super Mario 64 DS, and the critically acclaimed New Super Mario Bros. series of classic platformer revivals.
