The Mario All Star package was great. I like to think that the game helped ready the market in selling more "best of" packages on later systems such as the Gamecube, Playstation, and Xbox.

Still playing the allstars game. It is fit for the next generation as well as the first. Can't get enough of it! One game I hated and loved was Castlevania.

In the spirit of finding just about anything to complain about even in great game packages, the only thing that irritated me was that they tweaked away some of the all time classic Mario cheats in the All Stars. For example, no longer was there a -1 World in the original Super Mario Bros. and no longer could a player swim under the cannon ship in Map 8---thus, skipping everything---and simply jumping back on at the very end in Super Mario Bros. 3. Oh! And don't forget that the lovely ability to stop Bowser from shooting any fireballs in 3 got cut out. All Stars, however, felt no need to correct the misspelling in the story introduction of Super Mario Bros. 2....

....Okay. Rant over.

I think, apart from the obvious Link To The Past, Megaman X, and Super Mario World, that the game I've spent the most time on is Tetris Attack. A totally underestimated tetris mutation. The major difference between Tetris and Tetris Attack was that Tetris Attack was entirely player versus player. The game wasn't about surviving, it was about killing your opponent. And it was just so much addictive fun. Also, the puzzle mode was amazing.

I've played quite a few old Nintendo games on the Wii. The variety of controller options and wide spread of games make it the best system around Graphics are not as important as gameplay, ever.

Agreed, Joel! Most (not all, most) SNES games have aged well. Amazing graphics will never be able to make up for crappy gameplay, I think. I can't begin to tell you how many people I know still have and use their SNES systems at least once a week.

I have always had an SNES in the house since 1995, and always had to have Allstars. I've got Donkey Kong, Beavis and Butthead, Zelda, Illusion of Gaia...I also had to have either Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat, and I now finally have a Kirby game (Super Star)...I wish I had an NES but I am just glad to have what I have!

We still have our SNES and still use it. I would agree with you that gameplay for me trumps graphics anyday.

RoxyMoron

When I want to bring up the graphics card, I always tell kids about the original Oregon Trail or Frogger (or even Asteroids or Pong! haha)...not NES but still very funny because they had the worst graphics but so fun!

Joel007

Oregon Trail! classic

RoxyMoron

Yeah, I'm so old school :P
I think a lot of kids these days miss out on how to keep themselves entertained with simplicity and a little bit of imagination. They seem to require such expensive things in order to stay busy. Blah!

I was under the assumption that you could play previous version games on the newer generation systems - NES played on SNES, SNES played on GameCube, etc. Isn't this true?

FourBear

I thought so. Now, you can buy old SNES/64 games for the Wii. Then you won't feel so silly for buying the "classic" controller.
