Hmm... so this collection is nothing more than direct ports with few altered sprites? I am starting to think I might not pick up this collection. It all seems pointless to me now and it is not good for my wallet. I already have Super Mario All-Stars for the SNES. That's why I didn't get any of the Virtual Console games. I can already picture the 50th anniversary collection with ? Blocks being replaced with 50 Blocks instead of 25 Blocks.  |

No, the collection is SNES Super Mario All-Stars. The original SMB with the altered ? blocks is just included on the red Wii.

I like how they included mario in a tux on SMBC- they aren't fucking around with this being All-Stars.

Didn't know where else to post this and since this thread is related to Mario's 25th anniversary I figured I could post it here. Coming from Famitsu's Mario 25th Anniversary interview with Miyamoto. gonintendo.com/wp-content/photos/71616_m2_122_543lo.jpggonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=139811- Super Mario Bros. controls: "During much of development, the controls were A for shoot bullets (Bowser comes breathing fire and Mario just pulls out a gun, ha ha), B to dash, and up on the control pad to jump. The bullets wound up becoming fireballs later -- we originally thought about having a shoot-'em-up stage where Mario jumps on a cloud and shoots at enemies, but we dropped it because we wanted to focus on jumping action. The sky-based bonus stages are the remnants of that idea, you could say. The fact that SMB nearly had a Shoot 'em Up stage was news to me, sounds interesting. Although Yokoi kinda went for it in Super Mario Land if I remember it correctly right? Also, Miyamoto says the Minus World is kind of a feature. What about the famed Minus World? "That's a bug, yes, but it's not like it crashes the game, so it's really kind of a feature, too!" Heh. |

Looks like Australia's getting Super Mario All-Stars in some form, as the OFLC rated it. No clue if it's a disc or for the Virtual Console, but I'd wager a physical disc at this point. |

We know about how SMB almost got bullets and a shoot'em up stage, here are few more details on the original build of the game. gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=140281- game described as featuring large Mario characters and using the "athletic part" of "Junior Mario Bros"
- plans of making Mario bigger, scrolling, and gimmicks like lifts
- original control plans:
Left: Walk Left
Right: Walk Right
Up: Jump
Down: TBA (Duck)
B: Run (Accelerate) (Rocket->Shoot)
A: Attack (Depending on Item) (Bare Hands->Kick; Rifle; Beam Gun)
Left and Right would make Mario walk at two different speeds
- jump height was dependent on the length of time of the button press and the speed of left/right movement at the time
- "Rocket" is related to B for movement while in the air
- the rocket item could make Mario accelerate left or right in the air by pressing B
- A was for item usage or combatBoy, am I glad they changed it. This is interesting but it just seems a bit too weird and complicated. |

In fact, it sounds an awful lot like the controls for Wario Land...
I have to wonder... when they say "Junior Mario Bros.", are they referring to the Mario Bros. arcade?

I was wondering that myself. Junior Mario Bros. is new to me.

Nothing new. Just another thing related to the 25th anniversary. Super Mario Flipnotes Vol. 1 First one, 0:17 to 0:36. lol. Really funny.  Second one, 0:49 to 1:11. Awesome! Really well done, loved the style and animation.  Third one, 1:21 to 1:43. What the...?  Fourth one, 1:54 to 2:11. Cute but maybe a little too dumb. |

Gee, so that's how SMB was meant to be? Gee, sounds kinda awkward from the shoot-em up thing, which of course was used in SML.
Peach is just SO UNPREDICTABLE. (-l_l;- ) When fans get to use her...

Confirmed for North America! Includes the sounctrack and booklet alongside the original rev of Super Mario All-Stars, can be yours in December for $29.99. A little high in my opinion, but I don't plan on buying it, so...
