Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe enemy known as "Chained Chomp" was inspired by an experience co-director Shigeru Miyamoto had as a child. He was walking home from school one day when a dog tried to attack him, but it reached the end of its chain, just out of reach of Shigeru. In the game, the Chomps are tethered as well, but after waiting for 175 seconds, they will break free and chase the player.
- GoofsDuring the card matching game, Toad's quote should have read "Flip over any two cards and see if they match. Miss twice and you're out!", not "your out"; therefore, it is using an incorrect homophone.
- Quotes
Princess Toadstool: Thank you, but our Princess is in another castle... just kidding. Ha ha ha! Bye bye.
- Alternate versionsOriginally, at the end of the Japanese version of World 5-1, you would go through the pipe. You would emerge on the other side of the wall, and would find the goal area after about 20 more blocks of vacant terrain. This ending was shortened in the U.S. version, as the "darkness" was moved ahead to where the pipe and wall used to be. The wall was removed to fix an odd, harmless glitch that would happen if you were to fly over the wall after going through the pipe.

Mario At The Best!!!
Super Mario 3 is not only one of the greatest Mario Video Games, it is one of the greatest Video Games ever.
The plot is pretty simple. Basically you are traveling through eight different worlds in an attempt to rescue Princess Toadstool, nothing new.
Each world is interesting in its own right. There is the desert world, ice world, sky world, and big world.(big world is cool in that all the enemies are much bigger than Mario) The levels are colorful and exciting and there are plenty of times where you must try to solve puzzling situations. Great fun levels.
A great thing about this game is the power ups. You have the mushroom that makes you bigger, and the fire flower that makes you able to shoot out fire balls. There are a lot of new power ups as well, and I stress A LOT. Here is a list of them.
Leaf Gives you a racoon tail and ears and allows you to hover and fly short distances. Frog Suit Allows you to swim great in the water. Tanoki Suit It is an entire full body Racoon Suit that has the same abilities as the leaf plus you can turn into a statue. Hammer Brother Suit Wearing a hammer brother suit you are able to throw hammers at enemies. P Wing Allows you to fly through an entire level.
Another great feature is that you are able to obtain a lot of different items and store them. You can then use them when you are on the menu of whatever world you are in prior to starting a level. Being able to store items and use them when you wish is a great feature.
There are lots of fun games in each world. You get to battle hammer brothers for items and also you get to play a matching N Card game for items and another slot machine game for items.
Gameplay is pretty good but it takes practice. Once you get the hang though it is great fun.
A great CLASSIC video game that is a must play. AWESOME!!!!!
