Originally released in 1986 by Nintendo as a rare promotional prize for a popular Japanese radio program, All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros. for the NES is a unique, remixed platformer. It modifies the classic formula by replacing standard enemies and items with real-world personalities and logos from the radio show, while combining familiar early levels with challenging stages borrowed from its Japanese sequel, The Lost Levels.
How to play
Navigate the side-scrolling stages to reach the flagpole before time runs out, avoiding or stomping on enemies along the way. In your browser, use the arrow keys to move, Z to run or shoot fireballs (the B button), X to jump (the A button), and Enter for Start.
Tips
- Hold the run button (Z) to build momentum before jumping, which is essential for clearing the larger gaps in the later levels.
- Since this version incorporates stages from The Lost Levels, be prepared for tricky jumps and hidden blocks that require precise timing.
- Look for invisible blocks in suspicious empty spaces, which often contain hidden 1-Ups or create vital stepping stones.
