This style may feel different from the other analysis videos and that's because most of what you see here was unscripted as I was looking over the map of each level! I made some mistakes while talking, but those got edited out obviously. I've been wanting to get better at on the spot analysis like these so that there isn't as long of a gap between videos :) Also there isn't a hidden blue shell in 1-Tower, I accidentally made it look like that cuz I didn't show the power-up in the inventory beforehand.

theres something special to note about the hidden exit in the tower too. did you notice that the path that actually leads to the secret exit has the platform move differently then all the other blocks in that room? the fact its the only one moving oddly hints that theres something special in that spot.

You mention the Mega mushroom in the first stage. And tho I agree with your point, it also does a form of teaching. If you take it, you'll notice that you don't have all the collectables. So it teaches that the direct path won't get you everything and that depending on your power up state, you can't get everything, as if you comeback and get it and try a pipe, you can't use them when mega. Which in turn is also taught that if you smash through the pipes you can't use them later.

Also, its a great way to intise new players to stick around. Turning godmode for a while and keeping the shroom under lock and key afterwards makes you wanna save them as long as possible, as you dont know when you'll get another, and toad houses dissapear after using them unless you 100% the game.

This game was one of my first few games ever, and my first ever 2D platformer. It's so fun to watch this, because it takes me back to when I was an eight year old kid playing this on my DS having absolutely no idea what a platformer was, figuring out what I was doing as I was playing through the game. This video practically explains the thought processes I had subconsciously in those childhood gaming sessions. Oh, and not to forget, this video showed me tons of secret areas I never found as a kid. I wasn't looking for secret areas and trying to get all star coins, because with that little experience in video games at all (my only other games pretty much just being stuff like Mario Kart or Mario Party), I genuinely didn't even think of secrets as a possibility. I know it sounds mad, but like, I barely knew how video games 'worked' at the time, so of course I wouldn't think of it in more depth. I had the same with cutting corners as a shortcut in Mario Kart for example, I'd always just follow the course even if I had a mushroom. So weird to look back on a time where that wasn't practically etched into my system.

I think it was actually an alright decision to put the mega mushroom in the very first level. The mega mushroom teaches you, in the most blunt way possible, that power-ups can be very helpful-- but that you'll need to find them first. It's the game's way of rewarding you for going out of your way to hit blocks that could have items in them, and it encourages you to hit more blocks. This may seem small, but to 4 year old me playing NSMB as his very first Mario game, it was pretty important. Without it, I might've spent a few levels or even a world or two without fully realizing the importance of items.

Since I got lucky and hadn't lost the blue shell I got from a flying red block, I swooshed through and happily broke the blocks. I was shocked to find that I had then reached World 5, so I excitedly showed my dad.

Love that you are also looking at this masterpiece! I've always loved this game, It clear it had alot of love put on the game. It really felt really original, fresh, and easy to control and master. One thing I liked this game over the others is the bosses are really original as instead of just the lame overused Koopalings we had Petey Piranha from Mario Sunshine which i really liked. Also the Mutiplayer this game offered was amazing and really impressive. You got an amazing, thrilling, and balanced 1v1 via Mario Vs Luigi. Love how you can't kill each other via jumping/fireball as it only knocks Luigi/Mario slightly back but you could get creative and knock them down to a pit to lose a life. The other ways to actually kill the other player was Mega Mushroom, Blue Shell, and Star but those power-up are more rare in the way as it most likely appears to the losing player. But if the starts to "camp" you could just race to collect the stars around the map/level and win. Also the map selection was nice with a easy map progressing to harder ones. But thats one, we also got the mini-games in which honestly could be an entire game on it's own as it the amount of mutiplayer value and just content is amazing. It has everything: action mini-games, puzzle mini games, and actual cards mini-game like freaking poker! Really hope one day this game gets a remaster on better hardware like Bowser's inside story.

One thing I noticed is that in the big crushing platform section of 1-castle, one of the safe areas that you’re guaranteed to reach at the end of a cycle had a multi-hit block. Since the player is trapped, they are essentially forced to see the interaction with this block and have time to explore hitting it multiple times waiting for the blocks to rise again. Another cool learning moment enforced solely by level design

Haven’t even finished watching the video, but this honestly gave me a new found appreciation for the game. Prior, I had like no respect for it, just saw it as some dumb Mario game, possibly because by the time I played it, I had so much experience with Mario that I already knew all the tricks and was instead just trying to 100% the game as fast as possible and going for crazy tricks, not really appreciating anything else. This video showed the game in a new light, from the eyes of someone who has never played Mario before or even video games as a whole. It honestly feels like a playground, just something to explore, experiment, and have fun in, like Super Mario 64. And from a game designers perspective, it’s absolutely fascinating and completely eye opening. Thanks for showing this complete other side of New Super Mario Bros. and teaching something new about game design as a whole. Can’t wait to watch the rest of the series!

The shark level was probably an autoscroller because of how the sharks are meant to spawn. I've noticed this while making Mario Maker levels. It's much easier to make enemies appear in a specific way if the level scrolls automatically. If it doesn't, it's very likely that the player will spawn a bunch of things in a pace that messes up the flow of the stage. They might go right for a bit, just enough to spawn the next sharks, but then they might go back again, and by the time the sharks swim by, they're not in the intended place anymore. But when everything always appears in the same place, you can carefully construct a very specific challenge the player is meant to overcome.

Born in 03, Grew up with this game. That cannon secret was the pipeline drug my brain needed to become a true super player. I’m constantly checking for secrets always nowadays.

The warp zones were made bc you can’t save your progress so you might as well just play the second level and start in the world you left off

You missed that in the star coin room in castle one, the slab underneath the gap is going a bit slower. A little hit that something special is around there.

I had NO idea you could get the 3rd star coin in 1-4 like that. Now I can say your video taught me something new!

On the subject of water levels in Mario games, I wanted to mention how the ones in Super Mario Land were better than most. You had a submarine that moved faster than just swimming while also having the ability to shoot lil bullets! It also made more sense because it didn’t have Mario magically able to breathe underwater. It was pretty cool!

To add onto the implication of completing the 1-A path instead of the 1-5 path: since you're skipping what's obviously supposed to be an introductory level for several mechanics, what happens when the game wants to use the same mechanics in future levels? The game can't assume players completed 1-5 before future levels so does the game reintroduce the same mechanics? It may sound like a minor thing but what it really does is either 1) cause the designers to repeat content or 2) risk players feeling overwhelmed or frustrated by higher difficulty versions or new interactions of the same mechanics. The only saving grace here are the star coins because they're the one thing that encourages you to complete each level on every path (to collect all 3 star coins per level). So you would think the optional level 1-A shouldn't lead to 1-6 as one of two optional paths since the star coins encourage completing those optional levels anyway, and optional levels can block the path to optional places like the toad house so there's already incentives in place that Nintendo could've utilized. Instead, they opted to utilize alternative routes for the sole purpose of providing an illusion of choice at the expense of everything else. It's an illusion of choice because 1) you play both levels anyway for the star coins and 2) you don't know what the levels are before you play them so there's literally no player choice involved and no reason for the choice to exist.

Illusion of choice? I mean, it’s still technically a choice.

Has Nintendo really been milking new super mario? It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline game, been about 8 since new Luigi, and 3 since deluxe.

everyone and their mom had this game, i know the nsmb formula has gotten stale over the years with nsmb2 and countless re releases but when this series first started it was a big deal, And singlehandedly revived the 2d Mario Platform genre. This video brings me back to those simpler times when i was playing nsmb on the ds.

It’s been over ten years since I first got this game, I’ve played it multiple times, and I had NO idea about the 1-tower secret exit… blew my mind. Guess it just goes to show how well-made this game is, since I’m still discovering secrets as an adult lol

8:33 this video unlocked a memory of me getting absolutely spooked at the music for the tower levels. The music was so eerie, especially through the speakers of my DS. The dry bones moved so abnormally and that combo made me shit myself as a kid.

The 3rd star coin in 1-castle isn't that bad since you can kinda guess the star coin is located somewhere after the 2nd one, so you may mess around, jump everywhere and eventually find the green pipe. You may also learn standing in the middle of the rope makes you jump the highest
