Super Mario Bros. Deluxe

Super Mario Bros. Deluxe is a remake of the NES game Super Mario Bros., released in 1985. Super Mario Bros. Deluxe was released on the Game Boy Color fourteen years later. The game received critical acclaim for a number of things – bringing back the original Super Mario Bros. for a whole younger generation to experience, the inclusion of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, as well as the great abundance of unlockables featured in the game.

Plot
Because Super Mario Bros. Deluxe has different games and mode built in, the plot varies from mode to mode. The plots for Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels are exactly the same as they were in the original games. However, the games have additional features unlocked when beat.

Super Mario Bros.
When Bowser kidnaps Princess Peach, ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario and Luigi must set out on a dangerous adventure to rescue the fair princess. As they trek across multiple locations to get to Bowser's Castle, they encounter massive ambushes of enemies along the way. Though their adventure starts out easy, it grows progressively harder as the brothers travel closer and closer to Bowser's Castle. Eight massive worlds stand between them and the princess, and they will do whatever it takes to rescue her from the foul King of Koopas.

Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels
Just after Mario and Luigi and rescued Princess Peach from Bowser, he kidnaps her once more. This time, though, Bowser hides in a more secluded location, amidst a mass amount of dangerous worlds for the Bros. to travel. Though the worlds seem familiar to the Bros., they are much more dangerous; these worlds are more inhabited by enemies than any worlds they had every experienced. Yet, the Bros. marched forth through nine dangerous worlds. When they finally reached Bowser's Castle, they defeated him, rescuing the fair princess once more.

You vs. Boo
After collecting 100,000 points, Boo wants to challenge Mario and Luigi to a race. So, the Bros. race against Boo through various courses, eventually beating him. Though Boo can travel through solid objects, he is still defeated by the Bros. Upset, Boo runs away, and is soon thereafter replaced with a Green Boo. This Green Boo can move much faster than the white Boo. However, the Bros. defeat this Boo in a race too. As he ventures off, a Pink Boo comes to replace him. This Pink Boo is extraordinarily fast, and poses quite a challenge for the Bros. Eventually, the Pink Boo is defeated in a race too. The final Boo comes along for racing – the Black Boo. This Boo is faster than all others experienced in the past. Even though it is an extremely tough foe to overcome, the Bros. eventually defeat him, claiming victory over all Boo racers.

Original 1985
This is the first mode of the game that the player will encounter. It is a near-exact replica of the 1985 edition of Super Mario Bros., having only a few changes. The player will once again have to travel through eight worlds, each containing four levels. Despite the fact that all glitches were removed from Super Mario Bros. when implemented into this game, there were many additions to replace them.

Differences Between Super Mario Bros. and the Port

 * All glitches from the original game were taken out of Super Mario Bros. Deluxe. As such, famous glitches such as World -1 and Small Fire Mario cannot be performed in this game.
 * The player can save the game at any time.
 * A world map has been added for each world, displaying the player's progress in the game.
 * The player can play as Luigi at any time, simply by pressing the 'Select' button.
 * Water and Lava are animated, rather than being motionless.
 * Luigi, Toad, and Peach have new animations.
 * Luigi's sprite palette has been changed.

Challenge
This mode allows the player to travel through all thirty-two levels of Super Mario Bros., only this time, he or she must collect Red Coins and Yoshi Eggs. Depending on how well the player does in the challenge, his or her score will vary greatly. The player can also unlock many pictures and awards to view in the Toy Box if he or she does exceptionally well. In each level, several regular coins are replaced with several Red Coins; when they player collects the Red Coins, they are tallied. However, to collect the Yoshi Egg, the player must hit a block that is hidden somewhere in the level; this block will contain the Yoshi Egg.

Super Mario Bros. For Super Players
When collecting a total of 300,000 points in Original 1985 mode, the player automatically unlocks Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. The game isn't an exact port of the original, as some modifications have been made. Worlds 9 through D have been eliminated from the game. The wind feature was also removed; as such, the game was modified so that some jumps were actually possible. Graphics were updated very slightly, mostly in the sprites palettes. The player can also play as Luigi in this mode, just as he or she could in Original 1985 mode.

You vs. Boo
After the player has earned a total of 100,000 points in Original 1985 mode, he or she will automatically unlock You vs. Boo mode. This mode is extremely similar to Versus mode in multiplayer, only this time, the player must race against a Boo. The Boo has a major advantage over the player, as it can pass through walls an obstacles without slowing down. The player will have to race against the Boo on a particular stage. Each stage is modeled after a certain level in the game, only with some modifications. Springboards and blocks inhabit the courses mostly, as the player is required to utilize these to traverse the course successfully. There are four different colored Boos to race against, each noticably faster than the last.

Multi-player

 * Versus Mode: Using a Game Boy link cable, two players can race to the end of a level. Similar to You VS. Boo.
 * High Scores: Allows players to trade their High Score records.

Miscellaneous

 * Toy Box: Various goodies for the Player to enjoy, such as a Fortune Teller, Game Boy Printer printouts, and a calender.
 * Album: Images the player has earned by meeting certain objectives in the game.
