The nostalgia is super high with this one. I played this through multiple times when I was a kid. Wario Land 2 would make a good episode for replay as well.
Dude I fucking remember this game. This was one of my favorite games when I was a kid. It was one of my favorite gameboy games and Mario games of all time.
the cool thing in this game is the casino. it's in that little omnious hut near the start level. you can trade in your collected coins for power-ups and hearts.
Valkyria Chronicles is amazing! Too bad they didn't release the 3rd game. I'm playing VC2 on my PSP now traveling to and from work every day. I love it!
those sharks called sushi in the mario world generally die from one fireball blast and a full level in mario three revolves around picking up shells and kicking at walled up blocks
Old school Mario set you in a wild adventure. Visiting new crazy worlds and fighting goofy enemies. One word, Creative. Todays mario. Generic mario world and enemies. No adventure or discovery to be had. Everyone hold hands and collect these coins. One word, Bland.
also, Old timey diver helmet. Tim missed the opportunity to way "Wakka Wakka Diver helmet" or something like that. who else remembers Mr. Turi doing that?
Wow you guys really seem to like this game. I had a Gameboy that I shared with my cousin as a kid but I gotta admit I really didn't like playing it much only played Pokemon.
None of the Game Informer people have played the Motocross Maniacs series? That's the game that Evel Knevel is clearly inspired by... though te Motocross Maniacs games are much better than that thing. There are three of them, one each on GB, GBC, and GBA. Good series. There are some other games sort of like that that are even older -- sidescrolling jumping-over-cars stuff for old computers, and the like. But Motocross Maniacs was the first popular one in the category I know of. As for Mario Land, certainly a great game! I like the first one almost as much, though.... graphics aside, it really is a very good game also.
I'm sure this is breaking some kind of Mario Law, but 6 Golden Coins is my favorite Mario of all time. Also, fuck me that Trials theme was god awful. It's like a Lonely Island song before the jokes.
I'm going to play that Evel Knievel game just to prove you wrong Tim!! Since the first mario land game was terrible I didn't even bother with the second one, big mistake on my part -_- anyway good replay guys.
"running around on the roof like a crazy person." Once more Dan you cut to the quick and make me smile.
lol that Game Informer logo eater egg haha good one
12:36 The one in the mini game?
yup

Agreed :-)

Wowie. This brought back a lot of memories! I probably beat this game more than any other game in my entire life. And the soundtrack is addictive.
at 12:43 catch the GI logo...didn't know GI and Nintendo were that tight...wondering what that power up is supposed to do...?
Loved the Game Informer logo in the minigame. :D
I've been playing this game on my 3ds xl and it's a really great game! I'm surprised that people don't talk about this one very much.
the cool thing in this game is the casino. it's in that little omnious hut near the start level. you can trade in your collected coins for power-ups and hearts.
That Evel Kneivel game may be the first of those physics based Trails like games ever made.
I used to play the hell out of this every day on the bus. So good
12:44 game informer logo
Jason, did you stick that GI logo in the crane game in the halloween area?
Wat color palette r they using
Valkyria Chronicles is amazing! Too bad they didn't release the 3rd game. I'm playing VC2 on my PSP now traveling to and from work every day. I love it!
I used to play this game A LOT. I'd give it a 9 too actually. Great, great game.
I was just saying I wanted to see more of these games!
You can absolutely pick up a fire flower when you’re small in some other Mario games.
The ghost are the bullets that get shot out of the cannon .

Not at all. The recent Mario games are just as fun and creative. Mario 3D world was great.
also, Old timey diver helmet. Tim missed the opportunity to way "Wakka Wakka Diver helmet" or something like that. who else remembers Mr. Turi doing that?
i loved this game as a kid even though i remember those space levels being fucking hard
Wow you guys really seem to like this game. I had a Gameboy that I shared with my cousin as a kid but I gotta admit I really didn't like playing it much only played Pokemon.
to me, sml 1 & 2 were equally fun in there own ways, I played them so often that I would never play them again unless they got a new coat of paint
Old Ninten-do what new Ninten-don't.
LOL Noah....I think you meant Jonah. haha
i recently played through the lost levels on eshop. i would not have been able to beat that game without save states

The Trials Fusion theme is good except for the vocals/lyrics.
