Perfect Staff Pick

Playing this game makes me feel like I got it right off the Virtual Console. The graphics are amazingly straight-on par with NES, and in this case it looks great. Controls feel right-on and the gameplay is just like Super Mario Bros. I only have one problem--the power-ups. Some of the power-ups are slow in movement, which if you try to catch them while trying to keep the fireball from going off screen, it sometimes leads to losing a life. But it adds to the challenge, though, so I really can't say it is a major problem. Overall, the game is worthy of a staff pick. 5/6
