SMB 25

The original 8-bit Super Mario Bros turned 25 this year.

There’s some tricks in there that I’ve been wondering about for years, and plenty I’d never encountered.

SMB Allstars goes on sale Sunday, but you can pre-order it from Amazon now. The package hincludes all four NES-era Mario games on a single disc, a soundtrack CD, and a small history book which contains original artwork and interviews with the original designers.
