Everyone I knew had the original, but I've never even seen the 3rd one. --- End quote --- If you don't count bundled games, Super Mario Bros. 3 is the best-selling game of all time (about 18 million). The original Super Mario Bros. sold about 40 million...but that includes "free" copies bundled with the console. |

The Wizard helped but I'm pretty damn sure that SMB3 awesomeness also had a big impact. I don't think any other SMB game has ever topped SMB3 in coolness. Sure Mario64 was cool jumping into the 3D platform world but SMB3 still had overall fun factor way out. |

The Mario story is in the history.dat. SMB3 seems a little slow-going...but at least they got rid of the playchoice split-screen. |
