Bowser was hip in Mario 3 before being hip (using terms like “Yo!” “Wazzup!” “Doo” [like around the beginning of Shark Tale] and “Bro”) was even mainstream in America (if not the whole world, since it is a Northern American thing).

I love how once they got the Hammer Bros Suit they just resisted the urge to become anything else, ducking to the music and spastically avoiding enemies in order to protect the suit. I know most people always associate SMB3 with the Racoon or Tanuki suits, but for me the Hammer Suit was a brilliant addition they didn't return to for a long time. I was said to see it ultimately go later in the run.

[@Bloodreign1]

The Hammer Bros Suit is also the quikest way to kill Bowser. Throw hammers at him, and within a few hits, he dies, no need to let him break the floor and fall to his doom.

[@purwantiallan5089]

@@Bloodreign1 is NES version of Ninja Gaiden has the same dreadful GAME OVER screen like the arcade version or just a regular game over screen instead?

[@glenngriffon8032]

Due to it's rarity and power the hammer bros suit was my favorite when I was little and I still think of it as the greatest powerup in game.

[@josephb.4640]

The Hammer Suit can also kill other enemies which you normally cannot with fireballs, I believe. Bowser takes only 4 hits with the hammer suit, and the Koopalings take 3. They really should've brought this one back more often, though I do love the boomerang suit from Super Mario 3D World as a good replacement.

One of my favorite games of Super Mario Series. Super Mario Bros. 3 is acclaimed by many critics as one of the greatest video games of all time. It was a commercial success upon release, which was partly influenced by its promotion in the 1989 film The Wizard. Super Mario Bros. 3 is the third-best-selling NES game, having sold over 17 million copies worldwide. The popularity of the game also inspired a short-lived animated television series. If you are played this game, You made the greatest Childhood! Error: From the title screen, the copyright info dates from October 23, 1988, where this game was released in Japan, there is missing the year 1990 for North America, and 1991 for Europe. The North American game, was released in February 9, 1990, with bug and glitch fixed but those glitches were escaped, and European Version was released in August 29, 1991.

At least you utilized the different suits, unlike some other walk through's I've seen. Only thing I wish you had shown was how Statue Mario is capable of killing/popping away the Rotodisc's, and I think Podoboo (the fire ball) as well.

[@KrosanBeast315]

This game looks WAY BETTER on HD! As far as Mario games go, this was even better than Super Mario World. You had more power-ups, and more diversity. A lot of secrets in Super Mario World were way too cryptic to find unless you had a guide. This was a game where a lot of elements could be found just by playing the game

[@baldingfox77558]

You're not correct. but it's an opinion so whateva

[@josephb.4640]

Both games could be cryptic, but this game DEFINETELY had a few secrets which were WAY more difficult to uncover than Super Mario World. I'm mostly thinking about the secret coin ships or some of the hidden powerup rooms. SMW had text boxes telling you about secret exits and game mechanics. The only written hints in SMB3 came from Princess Peach's letters at the end of each world. Overall, though, I would argue both games had incredibly well-designed secrets which left just enough hints for players to uncover through their own experimentation. Both games are awesome in general, and their strengths and weaknesses really balance out well, so it's hard to say which one's better. Personally, I think Super Mario World wins by a small margin because it's more replayable than Super Mario Bros. 3, but that's just my view.

I wouldn't say "best looking" due to graphical limitations, but the art style is definitely very impressive for the NES era, and they managed to pull off some pretty unique color schemes which make it stand out and maintain some realism while also being more cartoony than the original Super Mario Bros. That's what I love most about the art style of this game, is that it's a lot smoother around the edges compared to the original Super Mario Bros, and they really knew what they were doing with such limited tech.

I wish I could explain why SMB3 is superior to SMW. Actually, I suppose because no one and I mean NO ONE would've expected SMB3 to turn out the way it did, especially after after SMB2. The third Mario bros game really set the bar very high, and the fourth entry into the series had a lot to live up to. What I'm sayin' is that SMB3 is that proverbial "lightning in a bottle". lol. SMW, in my humble opinion, and to this very day, hasn't lived up to, let alone meet the expectations of it's predecessor. It was just a continuation of SMB3. There's a huge contrast between part 2 and 3; not so much with part 3 and part 4.

Super Mario Bros. 3 is a platform game developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). It was released in Japan on October 23, 1988, North America on February 12, 1990 and Europe on August 29, 1991. It was developed by Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development, led by Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka. Players control plumbers two Mario and Luigi, who must save Princess Toadstool and the rulers of seven different kingdoms from the antagoist Bowser. As in previous Mario games, the defeat enemies by stomping them or using items that bestom magical powers; they also have new abilities, including flight or sliding down slopes. Super Mario Bros. 3 introduces many elements that became Mario series staples, such as Bowser's children (the Koopalings) and a world map to transition between levels.
