A Critical Look At The MOST BIZZARE Mario Game Ever Made- Mario 3: Around The World

- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2024
- Nintendo has yet to release a new 2D Mario game in almost a decade. The latest entry New Super Mario Bros. U is going to be a decade old this year. It's a Wii U game, not a Nintendo Switch game. While Super Mario Maker 2 does serve as a new 2D Mario adventure for most, it is not quite the same as a traditional entry. I have wanted a new Mario platformer for quite some time, and I oddly found a Sega Genesis (Mega Drive) game that is a brand new original Mario game made from the ground up. It is a fairly recent game too. But is it any good?

The reason why “Mario 3: Вокруг света” was released on the genesis in 2011 is because in Russia, they have Sega Genesis that still around, even to this day. According to Sega Retro, it says "Since the end of 2010s, there has been a sharp increase in interest in Sega clones in Russia. In 2019, Sega and Dendy clones had 18% shares in sales of consoles in Russia. The main reason for this may have been the growing interest in retro consoles released by Nintendo, Sega and Sony in the world".
Interesting! I know the Sega Master System and Sega Genesis are still sold and quite popular in Brazil. But it seemed bizzare in Russia considering how modern game consoles are readily available. Nintendo actually left Brazil for a few years.
In Belarus I've seen a person with switch one time and i got one recently
Ps and xbox took over here
Nintendo didn't even made eshop a thing here so i had to change my region to russia
Thanks nintendo
@@Demeech a lot of Russians can't afford modern consoles (ESPECIALLY if we're talking about buying games, the prices here STING), so getting a bootleg console for a child isn't out of the ordinary. Sega Mega Drive and Dendy (or famiclones in general) are fondly remembered which also influences their popularity. Bootleg consoles are so widespread that you could find one right in the center of Moscow (no joke)
@@BlueMarioGangsta Nintendo were never all that present in CIS countries. There was a partnership with Steepler in the 90's to sell Super Nintendo but other than that I don't think they really bothered officially distributing their consoles in this region until Wii happened. Despite some later localization efforts, though, the situation is pretty bad, especially in smaller countries like Belarus, yes
@@zakkuth7447 And yet, Nintendo cant even bother to officially distribute their products to Latin American, even to this day.
This means third parties like LATAMEL has to brought them here and increaise the original price retail due to import costs.
For example, the Nintendo Switch launch price was $300 in USA.
What was its launch price in Latin America? From $500 to $700 .____.
I remember this game because Vinesauce streamer Vargskeletor played this in a bootleg compilation a few years ago. This game’s and the Felix the Cat’s game over screens will stay in my mind forever.
Back in the day, everyone wished a Mario game would grace the Mega drive!……………………KEEP LOOKING
You don't know you had something until you get it and immediately want to loose it.
It's sad when the "best" mega drive Mario bootleg is one that's a bootleg of another bootleg and gives up on the Mario aesthetic from level 3 onwards.
Man, looks like Mario's gonna be going on an Odyssey!
Save that for another video 👀
I find it interesting that the game uses sprites from mario & wario and the GCN version of yoshi's cookie, given how both are obscure japan-only spin-off games
Also a Princess Peach sprite from Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door.
Pro theif move
They may be a thief, but they clearly know their stuff.
THERES A YOSHIS COOKIE ON GAMECUBE?!?!
@@pyroflare7774 Only in Japan 😕
I always knew of the sequel to this game which was Mario 4: A Space Odyssey. It was essentially the same thing, but with different level theming, a different story and an arguably even more horrifying game over screen.
I will also make a video on that game.
@@Demeech ooo
Actually, Mario 3 was the sequel to Mario 4. As dumb as it sounds.
@@Demeech alright
Looks like an old GameMaker fan game from 2004. Many sprites from pre-existing titles, wonky controls and less than stellar programming. It’s kind of nostalgic actually!
That thumbnail... Vinesauce Joel intestifies.
I can’t wait until they add this game with the other Genesis games for the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack
Would be worth getting then.
That was incredible! Finally somebody is talking about this game. It just so happens that I am also working on a remake of this game in SMM2. And after I am done with that, I intend of remaking this game’s sequel, Mario 4: Space Odyssey. It would be awesome if you could talk about Mario 4: Space Odyssey on the channel.
I am DEFINITELY doing a video about Mario 4: A Space Odyssey as well
I never thought I’d see this game again after all these years…
It's hard to believe the game is over a decade old
4:43 “The physics are not what you’d expect but once you get uset to them there still terrible” LMAO
Awesome of you to share those levels at the end :)
I think this game was released around mario galaxy since it used a similar scheme
And demeech
Whatever you do
Do not press het when you game over
Too late
This is one of my personal favorite bootlegs alongside the sequel. Also that main theme man... 🕺
it might have been made that late because in some less wealthy countries people still play the sega mega drive and own older technology
Demeech: Since the Nintendo Switch is the greatest game machine on the planet, being the best console of all time. I'm sure it has the definitive new 2D Mario game, let's check it out. *shows NSMBU Deluxe* ... Never mind.
Ranpan from the future: Whoa! Pump the brakes, gator boy!
Demeech: *sees a chubby purple Grumpus wearing a John Deere cap and dressed like a redneck* Who are you? And why are you so fat?
Ranpan: I'm not fat, I'm chubby. And my name's Ranpan, I'm your friend from the future. I come from the year 2024, and I have news, the Switch does have the definitive new 2D Mario experience, it's called Super Mario Bros. Wonder. New kingdom, new power-ups, a brand new mechanic that'll make you think you're on a drug trip, just oozing creativity and fun, and you don't have to rescue Peach, she's playable alongside Daisy, Nabbit, and Yoshi!
Demeech: Super Mario Bros. Wonder? Uh, you sure it's not New Super Mario Bros. 3, with Pink Gold Peach playable?
Ranpan: Positive. It's the Mario Odyssey for 2D Mario, and one of the most creative Mario games in the Switch era. It gets revealed next year in June, then released in October. And Wonder's only an appetizer to a huge buffet of WONDERFUL games from Nintendo.
Demeech: Are you sure? Nintendo isn't known for caring about the fans anymore. They love to disappoint fans with JRPGs, unfinished games, and no Mario Kart 9.
Ranpan: Things can drastically change in the span of two years.
Demeech: What else happens?
Ranpan: *looks at my paws, starts to count up all the games revealed and released* Pikmin 4, Metroid Prime Remastered, Kirby's Return to Dreamland Deluxe, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and WarioWare: Move It! As for the Mario blowout, we have remakes of Super Mario RPG, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong. For brand new games, we have Princess Peach: Showtime, Mario & Luigi: Brothership, and Super Mario Party Jamboree. There's also a remaster of Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon.
Demeech: Mario RPGs are back? Mario & Luigi is alive? A sequel to Super Princess Peach? Mario vs. Donkey Kong is back? A new Mario Party game? And another new WarioWare game?
Ranpan: Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes. All true. And don't let the name fool you, Super Mario Jamboree is more in line with Superstars, and it has SEVEN boards! Both RPG remakes are peak. The Peach game isn't anything groundbreaking, but it's a decent little game. And you're going to love the remake of Mario vs. Donkey Kong. Nintendo does a complete 180, with next year and 2024 being the Switch's best years, with the Directs aside from the February one all being great.
Demeech: *looks to his giant framed picture of Furukawa above his bed* Maybe I misjudged you, Furukawa.
Furukawa: Play Fire Emblem, and kiss the purple Grumpus deep with tongue.
Demeech: WHAT?!?
Ranpan: *takes a breath mint* You heard the man!
0:06
And now we have Super Mario Wonder
That Toys Я Us joke was gold
Mom, can we have Mario at home
The Mario at home:
Excited to see that this game is like!
What did you think?
@@Demeech it seems like it would actually be interesting and enjoyable if it weren’t for the poor physics
An odd game for sure, but been looking at pirate games for far too long for this one to seem weird. As for what the market is, the Mega Drive is still available new in Brazil and new titles are still being made.
Jesus I was not ready for the volume to be so loud when you showed the game over screen!
Fun fact: at one point, the would've been Mario game that would have you pass by Worlds based on real life places...but It was cancelled, cuz it's was an sequel for frickin Mario is Missing
If you think that Game Over screen is scary, look up Felix the Cat Bootleg Genesis game Game Over screen
The game was called Super Mario's Wacky Worlds. It actually has been online for quite some time.
It's a squeal to hotel mario actully
@@bewearstar9462 a squeal
@@Luigi_Is_Number_1 Squirt
6:50 Your genuine feelings are so funny to hear 😂
Dang, I'm from Russia, but I've never seen this game. Probably because my PC is a synonym for the word "Potato"?
If that's the case, is there actually a market for new Sega Mega Drive games?
I don't know, man. In the '90s my family was too poor to buy a Mega Drive. BUT WE BOUGHT A SEGA MEGA CD ANYWAY! THEN WHAT'S THE POINT OF BUYING AN ADD-ON THAT WON'T WORK?
Sorry, I've had this in my head since 1997. That's when we started having financial problems. We bought the whole Mega CD library, the family still doesn't know it's an add-on, and I... And I still want to buy a Mega Drive on eBay, I've only found Genesis.
What they were thinking when designing the game over screen
They wanted to scare players to get good at the games
Russian Megadrive bootlegs genuinely have music that slaps.
Fun fact:I used to make scratch games with this games ost
I've heard of the 4th game:
mario 4: a space odyssey
its basically almost the same
Surprised there aren't more Mario bootlegs on the Genesis, considering there's a big market for them.
Also, the sped-up music (And if you thought the game was too fast) was most likely due to the fact the game was intended to be played on a PAL system at 50hz, which is why everything is sped-up in NTSC at 60hz.
I remember the flash game Mario's Time Attack used Mario & Wario sprite too.
Wow Wario is actually the antagonist? 10/10 would recommend
In Soviet Russia, Mario game plays you.
0:53 You will DIE 😂
Why did you include that lol
If we're gonna be nitpicky, the last truly 2D mainline original Mario game was in 1992 with 6 golden coins. The NSMB series are technically 2.5D
Only graphically. Gameplay-wise, they are 2D in their entirety.
to quote vinesauce joel,
P I R A N H A
T I T S
The jungle background is taken from Yoshi's Island DS.
I just played Super Paper Mario, a game which contains a well-established Heaven and Hell, and a game that very commonly uses "game over" as a euphemism for death, or even murder, when spoken by a villain.
I get the feeling most of these Russian bootleg devs took heavy inspiration from that when making their fail-screens.
They didn't take inspiration. They just stole someone's weirdly dark fanart
Super Luigi is right
@@Superluigi881 Oh yeah.
Guess I was giving them too much credit.
That and I just really liked Super Paper Mario and wanted to talk about it, I dunno :P
Looks like Mario Land 2 but the physics and gameplay were never updated from the original Mario Land game! Cool video!
i played this and mario 4 odyssey in my childhood
Duuude a video about Psycho Waluigi would be awesome!! 💜
Great video as always. Would like to see ur thoughts on”Newer” super Mario bros. It’s a great fan game
That video is coming next
8:47 - Funny how you mentioned "deteriorating ice cream van" as a comparison.
In Beverly Hills on a PC had a soundtrack that someone made similar comparison. (It sounds like someone's strangling an ice cream van)
Here take a listen. ruclips.net/video/zjfuFXKeEJI/видео.html
Also thanks to Vinesauce im aware of those bootleg games. Sick soundtrack that I listen to, but holy hell! Those game over screens are simply life scarring.
Felix the cat with Felix unmasked even caught Vinesauce off guard.
A Stingray 5000 Single? Those guys rock!
If I want a really good story in a 2d Mario game I will go play super paper Mario. I don't like normal rpg turn based combat so super paper Mario is the game for me.
Glad to see that other people recognize just how amazing this soundtrack is! I was already into Keygen Chiptune, but hearing the OST of "Super Mario 4: A Space Odyssey", as well as this game, got me into a few artists and songs I didn't know before!
And if you thought the songs sounded great in the game, you should take your time to listen to the originals too, which are often much better when it comes to their instrumentation
The OSTs have been uploaded to youtube for anyone who's interested, and most have the names of the original tracks in the comment as well!
Wait, did the game have flag poles at the end like regular Mario games, or did it have doors or something else?
Nothing. Just a transition.
the game would actually be okay if the physics weren't worse than water levels and ice levels combined
Hey Demeech, I love your videos! What is the code for your super world?
The super Mario world NES theme is fire🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯
this game kinda looks like what i would make like 4 years ago in gamemaker
7:03 THERE I AM AGAIN, GARY!!
The music sounds like Street Fighter.
The continue screen is kind of…
Unsettling.
I want these levels remade in super mario maker 2
What's with these Russian bootlegs and traumatizing lose screens?
There's the felix the cat and thr Ben 10 game have it too.
I have no idea
6:41 is it just me or is that the beginning of one of the battle themes from Chrono Trigger?
I wish I knew Greek. Then I wouldn't need to rely on translations and could read the *original* Bible.
It's ancient Greek. Different from modern Greek.
putting that Yamaha chip to work
The reason for this is Brazil and Russia. You still find a ton of mega drives in these places
Thank God, bintor got me wondering about this game
Looks like you have a beta Mario Run, Mario Walk d>_0b
do a critical look for mario forever
Considering how terrible Nintendo of Russia's president is, I'm not surprised that Russian gamers would want to get their Mario fix elsewhere.
Is the superworld finished?
Dumb request but....
....Could you review some of the Japanese thomas the tank engine games, like the DS games? I feel like it could be something interesting that nobody's done before
Love the series 🙌 keep it up
Wouldn't be possible without your amazing art!
The only reason why I know about this is because Vinny Vinesauce played it before
was that partners in time gritzy desert theme?
Pasco county reference? Subscribed
You're one of the few to get the joke! Subscribed.
@@Demeech It's not often you see anyone mention it online :)
Sega does what Nintendont, that phrase probably will never get old.
Make good games?
I did not know about this game at all. Also before I clicked the video I thought it was going to be a rom hack
play the game's twin brother: mario 4 space oddysey
Does the music remind anyone else of Sonic?
When are we gonna see a review of Марио 4: Космическая Одиссея
Later this month
Damn.. the reason to be proud of ur country once again
I fricking love that intro
do not ever stop using it
🔫or else
bro mario 3 around the world has fuckin certified bangers🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Next Time, Demeech, You should Do a video about Hotel Mario.
When I find a reliable emulator, I will
The continue theme is kind of a jam
Demeech, are you aware that your avatar bears a striking resemblance to the mascot of the Taiwanese arcade manufacturer PAOKAI Electronic? I'm unsure if whether or not this was intentional, but I found it amusing regardless.
What are you talking about??? Such a statement requires *TOY SOLDIERS* to go after you! They'll need to take the *TOY TAXI* though.
Yes, I'm aware lol! I love claw machines and always found the gator mascot cool. I used it not only because of that, but because I want people to be surprised when they see it.
Can you do a video on the sequel or other games by bmb
Considering the current world situation, I don't think they'd happen
@@Demeech alright
you put me on lmao
0:53 WHAT WEEGEE!? WHATS THE LEVEL ID!???
Already played this bootleg before. Never managed to complete the first world because of those crappy controls.
around the world
I personally think Luigi’s mansion has the scariest game over screen
Look up Felix the het
Also the game over song is a remix of puzzle room reused from felix the cat game and why do bootleggers always put it in it their games
The soundtrack sounds like sometype of a keygen
Oh my gosh! It's on my birthday! ^^ (yeah yeah, nobody cares, yadda yadda)
But hey. Let me enjoy the video. Especially if it's about that memic Russian Bootleg for Genesis. ^_^
Happy Birthday! 🥳
What's the music that plays at 0:07
New Super Mario Bros. World 7
One thing you didn't mention about the sound design is while the music is good. The sound effects are awful.
I believe the sound effects are from Uwol: Quest For Money. I didn't mind them.
See you in 14 hours
If I remember
You will
Me when I watch this video at 11PM at Moscow time: 🥲
Plz do a 3D Land review‼️
Is this just a remake of Super Mario Land?
Nevermind, I commented too soon and you referenced the similarities.
TYRANNATITS!??!?
Kind of a fangame honestly lol
I prefer this than nintendo lazily porting games for $60
What do you mean by "Lazily porting"?
Never been to Russian but I'd assume it's more of an bazzar item where they can buy dirty cheap modern chinese MegaDrive clones, surprisingly they used to have a real MegaDrive in the late 90s
Damn it I missed it
