Super Mario 3 Gets All Portable

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to a Gamers.com article showcasing new screenshots and details from Super Mario Advance 4 for GameBoy Advance. This title, which is a portable revival of the classic NES title Super Mario Brothers 3 with the higher quality visuals of the SNES Super Mario All-Stars version, will also have e-Reader connectivity, and a recent IGN Pocket preview claims "players can transfer the data from e-Reader to the game... to upload brand new levels and challenges", though, logically enough, "you'll need two GBAs (or a Game Boy Player [for Gamecube] and a GBA) to take advantage of this feature."

Little information on gameplay?? by Mantrid · 2003-06-19 02:07 · Score: 2, Funny

Hehe, I'm amused by the article where it mentions that little information has been released on gameplay.

Now maybe i'm crazy, but I think it'll involve some running, jumping, and bouncing off of bad guys...

If Popeye had the POW block I don't remember, but I won't argue it. But don't forget that Super Mario 2 also had the POW block that came out of the ground when you pulled turnip stalks.....
I just realized just HOW high those guys must've been. I mean, I know it was a sprite-swap job, but still. Wild vegetables that turn into 'magic potions' and make you see the world in a different way? Riiight. Tell me they weren't on something.

It's all about the love.
