Not to be confused with the 1993 enhanced rerelease of the NES version.

Mario Bros. Classic is a remake of the original Mario Bros., included in all four Super Mario Advance installments as well as Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. It features updated physics, graphics, and music, along with a multiplayer battle mode featuring blue and yellow Marios.

Unused Music

Hmmm...
To do:
Do these appear in Advance 2, 3, or 4? (They do reappear in Superstar Saga.)

sn_battlekekka_intro (Track 68)

An intro for the results track heard during the Single Player and Multi Player result screens. Below is a mockup of the full track.

Regional Differences

Japan US/Europe China

The Japanese version says "PUSH START", while the international version says "PRESS START". The hyphen in the copyright date was also changed to a comma in the international version, but changed back to a hyphen in the Chinese version. Japanese version uses the registered trademark (®) symbol, while the international versions use the trademark (™) symbol.

The Chinese version also added a copyright date for the iQue and changed the logo to be in Chinese.

Player Number

Japan International

The Japanese bonus point counter has an apostrophe at the end, just like the original arcade version. This was changed to a period for the overseas releases.

Revisional Differences

  • The option to select between single-player and multiplayer is found on the main title screen of the four Super Mario Advance games, but on the Mario Bros. title screen in Superstar Saga.
  • The title music uses slightly different instrumentation between versions, varying based on the game's soundfont. Super Mario Advance and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga share one arrangement, which doesn't loop.
  • The fade out after pressing Start is white in the Super Mario Advance version. In all later versions, the fade out is black.
  • After kicking an enemy while playing the Super Mario Advance version, Mario says nothing. The other versions added a short voice clip upon kicking an enemy.
