I will always love 3 since it was a big part of my early childhood. But if I'm honest World is the better game. I know you said you love how Mario feels and handles in 3. But I feel like World is superior. Because Mario is less floaty, if that makes sense.
"Early on, Mario 3 was going to have an isometric camera." Until they realized that was the worst possible angle for a platformer. Isn't that right, Sonic 3D Blast and Sonic Labyrinth?
Morton Koopa Jr. was a reference to Morton Downey Jr. a pioneer of “trash tv” talk shows in the 80s/90s. All the Koopalings in the North American version of SMB3 were named after celebs (usually musicians, but Morton & Larry were the two exceptions to that).
I sure as hell can remember my first memory of playing this game. I was at a friend's house, he had just got the game, he and I decided to play it, needless to say we both lost track of time, I got home late, got bitched at by my parents, and a short couple of months later, I had my own copy (my mom secretly put the game on layaway at K-Mart, one day after school she told me to look in the food pantry of all places, behind a box of snack cakes, Mario 3 was chilling out, waiting for me to find it). I was freaking blown away, my mind exploded. It was a beautiful game. As for Advance 4's ending, Nintendo just translated the Japanese version's ending, the Japanese version did not have the Another Castle joke in any version of Mario 3.
I will never forget when my cousin got this for his birthday, we completely skipped the cake. There was no time for that, the most amazing game in existence had just landed in our hands. Still love it and play it with nostalgia in hand and heart to this day.
15:38 yea the functionality of the cape power up is awesome, but man if it isn't absolutely busted. It just trivializes so much of World once you get the hang of it.
Fun fact: in the japanesse version of the game, it doesn’t matter what power up you have (for example hammer bro, wing power up, frog power up, etc…) you loose it and become small when you take damage, you even loose the green shoe!
@17:43 Luigi sprite was always the same as mario other then the color for all 4 original nes/snes games when made in it's homeland. SMB2 US was a port of Doki Doki panic and so that change was a NOA made one and Miyamoto had nothing specific on that.
I stumbled upon this channel while looking for videos on Lost Levels, and I'm so glad I did, it is a goldmine of quality content that captures the nostalgic feeling of retro gaming reviews perfectly. Keep it up dude, can't wait for the Super Mario World and the New Series reviews
I grew up on the gamecube and didnt play smb3 until i turned like 19 so no nostalgia what so ever and i can tell you the game still holds up. If there was a save function on PAL and NTSCU carts and Mario wasn't as slippery id give it a 10/10
I remember playing the hell out of this game when I was a kid visiting cousins. No one ever wanted to play the auto scrolling levels and we'd fight over who had to and who played the mini-games
I wish people would STOP calling the fish that tries to eat Mario and Luigi in 3-3 and 3-8 Big Bertha. Thats Boss Bass. Big Bertha swims in the water back and forth and opens her mouth to let baby Cheep Cheeps out.
@@gooeydude574 They were only called Goombas in the West. They always had a different name in the Japanese version, it's Kuribon instead of Kuribou. Yes, it's a slight difference that probably went unnoticed by the localizers, but still a difference. When 3D World included both enemies, it became clear for localizaers that the Kuribons weren't Goombas so they christened it as Galoombas.
I only briefly experienced Mario 3 through Mario Advance 4 when I was like… 8? 10? I was young is the point. Cool review, as usual! To be honest, I’m more in it for your personality than the review itself. Your charisma’s the real star of it all! I’m excited for your next one. Keep up your great work!
I entered a Super Mario 3 competition at my local video rental store in late 1991. I ended up coming 2nd place because I was to busy showing off by collecting the magic whistles instead of getting a high score. I was only 6 years old at the time.
@@aaronflowers8881 Yep. I picked up the whistle in the fortress. He killed Boom Boom and got the 7000 points. Time expired soon after and the match ended.
The Roman numeral 3 in world 2 is made of water because it’s letting you know world 3 is water world. The mushroom house next to it even has a frog suit power up 😑
I feel like SMB3 is underrated because more people seem to talk about Super Mario World or Super Mario 64. Super Mario 64 was a huge feat in gaming being the first 3D Mario game but Super Mario World had less worlds in it than Super Mario 3 😅. Also, SMB3 just controlls better than Super Mario World.
I don’t really play Mario Games much outside of 3D World and Mario Odyssey, but I found my parents’ old DS, started playing the GBA version of this game, and I can safely say now it’s the best Mario game
A couple months ago I was fixing my NES (Carts weren’t being read) and when I put it back together I tested it with this game, and while it did play, there was no sound. I tried fixing it for ages until I realized that there was just no sound on the title screen. Yikes.
"Modern Mario and ALL that entails is born here. People will grow up to have careers in the game industry because of this moment" Movies With Mikey where does Mario come from
5:13 i actually have seen people play games like this, basically everyone who had never played nes mario bros before, my mom and family members really did play games like this before they got used to it. i myself also started like this, i think its a rite of passage, well that and your thumbs hurting till they callosed. my hated faux gamer tell in movies and tv is when they have the controller upside down, have no cartridge in the unit, or how every game system always sounds like atari 2600 pacman.
A lot of uninformed misinformation in this video. Just repeating other people's misinformation. The Wizard movie was not created to be a Nintendo ad. It is a remake of a 70s pinball movie called Tommy that got Nintendo placement after the movie was already rolling.
26:21 Sigh, zoomer gamers. Anytime something isn't spelled out for you, you guys complain. You figure it out after running out of time once or twice while trying to figure out where you can possibly go. It's also why there's an alternate route. Seriously, it's not that hard, modern games are just made to spell everything out to progress because kids will just look up on YT how to beat if they can't figure it out immediately.

Mario 3 or Mario World?
Super Mario Bros 3 but both are Goats.
3
I used to go back and forth a lot but now 3 has the edge for me. Both pushed the series forward in big ways tho!
I will always love 3 since it was a big part of my early childhood. But if I'm honest World is the better game. I know you said you love how Mario feels and handles in 3. But I feel like World is superior. Because Mario is less floaty, if that makes sense.
Mario World
Coop, I'm home sick with Covid, playing Mario Maker 2 and then this drops. Epic timing thanks for the entertainment!
Hoping you have a speedy recovery covid isn't something fun to have I had it before and it was a very mild case but it wasn't pretty regardless

That's SOOOO japanese....🙄🙄🙄
@@kristopherguilbault5428 yeah, tell me about it.
Back in 1988 a save feature was like a luxury very very few games had
@17:43 Luigi sprite was always the same as mario other then the color for all 4 original nes/snes games when made in it's homeland. SMB2 US was a port of Doki Doki panic and so that change was a NOA made one and Miyamoto had nothing specific on that.

I came back to this channel after having not been here for a while.
Thanks for adding sound to the title screen. It always felt really weird without it.
I love Super Mario Bros 3. It's my favourite 2D Mario game.
It's good but overrated
@@williamwhite1036 Erm no. That's your opinion and it's not overrated. It deserves all the praise it receives
@@ultraninja_19 Thank you!
It’s ironic Nintendo used a game tournament in a film to promote a game whilst these days shutting down game tournaments.
It's my favorite video game of all time and it's still a masterpiece.
I grew up on the gamecube and didnt play smb3 until i turned like 19 so no nostalgia what so ever and i can tell you the game still holds up. If there was a save function on PAL and NTSCU carts and Mario wasn't as slippery id give it a 10/10
The 3 in desert land is to indicate the 3rd warp whistle being found there
I remember playing the hell out of this game when I was a kid visiting cousins. No one ever wanted to play the auto scrolling levels and we'd fight over who had to and who played the mini-games
I can't think of anything to say except the three words I say in most of your videos:
Excellent, review, Coop.
I wish people would STOP calling the fish that tries to eat Mario and Luigi in 3-3 and 3-8 Big Bertha. Thats Boss Bass. Big Bertha swims in the water back and forth and opens her mouth to let baby Cheep Cheeps out.
Yeah, it annoys me too. Then again, there are people who still think those chestnut-looking enemies from Mario World are Goombas...
@@skc4188I’m pretty sure those enemies from SMW were originally called Goombas before being called Galoombas years later
@@gooeydude574 They were only called Goombas in the West. They always had a different name in the Japanese version, it's Kuribon instead of Kuribou. Yes, it's a slight difference that probably went unnoticed by the localizers, but still a difference.

I enjoy this video. I still really love Super Mario Bros. 3.
13:26 The Japanese version of the game says otherwise.
I entered a Super Mario 3 competition at my local video rental store in late 1991. I ended up coming 2nd place because I was to busy showing off by collecting the magic whistles instead of getting a high score. I was only 6 years old at the time.
The object was to get the most points?
@@aaronflowers8881 Yep. I picked up the whistle in the fortress. He killed Boom Boom and got the 7000 points. Time expired soon after and the match ended.

Swear I never hear that. It's always which is better 3 or world.
25:18 - weird tower xD
more like the tower of babel by pieter bruegel
The iii is a reference to the third warp whistle you get there .
15:44 I'm insulted that you just used a P-wing on the boot level. That is heresy.
Shoutout to Andrew!
10:15 N for................Nintendo.
like they were a card game company mainly.
and their french cards have a spade with an N inside.
I don’t really play Mario Games much outside of 3D World and Mario Odyssey, but I found my parents’ old DS, started playing the GBA version of this game, and I can safely say now it’s the best Mario game
Obi One Shinobi: Hello there
I hate to be a steckler but that's boss bass not big bertha is the one who spits out her young
This is been a error fixed by the gaming connosieur
The best Mario
No the best Mario is from the original Super Mar movie, clearly.
@@75JUNAKI What?!
16:54 not Big Bertha. That's Boss Bass. Bertha is the in water version (like in 4-4)
A couple months ago I was fixing my NES (Carts weren’t being read) and when I put it back together I tested it with this game, and while it did play, there was no sound. I tried fixing it for ages until I realized that there was just no sound on the title screen. Yikes.
Very good review, I just found your channel today.

Do de dooo do do de do do pan pan!
33:44 About time.
This came right before the Jimmy johns got here. Perfect timing

if you ever do an Atari Lynx video, you gotta reuse that Tobey maguire bit
Cool
Much like is Megaman 2 better than 3 the question is the same for Mario bros 3 and world.
can you do a review of earthbound
N for .....Nintendo? .......
Tbh, I see Super Mario Bruh 3 as the true Super Mario Bruh 2 cause the once called that barely felt like a true sequel.
Dude, can you do your review on Pizza Tower?
