Vs. Super Mario Bros.
Nintendo took a selection of games for the Nintendo Entertainment System and
converted them into arcade machines called the Nintendo VS. Series. They
weren’t just ports, however, as they were different games in their own right,
with increased difficulty and altered levels. One of the chosen games was
Super Mario Bros.
Most of the layout is the same, but harder enemies are encountered at the
beginning of the game. Some levels are replaced by their counterparts from The
Lost Levels. Other changes have also been made. Power-ups have been reduced,
warping is limited, and the coin counter has three digits, among various other
changes.
Vs. Super Mario Bros.
The plot is the same as the original Super Mario Bros., featuring Mario and Luigi (second player only) setting out on a quest to free Princess Toadstool from the evil Bowser and restore the fallen kingdom of the Mushroom People.
