And when it got dark out and you couldn't see the screen, you'd ask your dad if you could turn on the light in the backseat... but he'd say no, because "it's illegal".
I was looking forever for this mario game. I remember playing it way back when I was really young and I didn’t have a clue what it was called. I felt a wave of nostalgia hit me as soon as I heard the level 1 theme play again.
Same here, really crazy so many of us remember playing but not what game it was. I guess because it's not a mainline Mario game. The space level always stood out to me as being really challenging and fun
The best Mario Game Boy game ever created IMO. The music ranks up there with Koji Kondo's composition, the new enemies are creative, fun, and even cute, and we still have plenty of classic SMB enemies. They brought over things from SMW I didn't think they would be able to fit in a Game Boy game, such as drill jumping, picking up shells, and a replay-able map. The bunny ears power up is ingenious, and the way they were able to up the ante graphically speaking with the original limitations was just excellent. It makes the first SML look like a beta by comparison. And this color redux? Excellent!!
What's even weirder is that the coloration of Super Mario Land 2 was hard-coded into the GameBoy Color, meaning Nintendo could have chosen the correct colors, yet didn't. I think it was because of the lack of screen lighting that they painted everything in light turquoise.
Mario Land 2 is a classic game that's been made even better - the color graphics really show off what an impressive, good-looking game this was on the Game Boy. Happy New Year, everybody!
NintendoComplete, This Is a F**KING IPS File, Any of you got some sort of idea of how to patch Mario Land 1&2 IPS files to play them via android device (this is the only way I can play these games since I don't have a PC).
I got this game at the airport in 1993 when we went on holiday to Barbados. I played this game every night before bed for those 2 weeks. Hearing the music and sound effects reminds me of the wonderful holiday 27 years ago. I was 10!!
Oh boy so many memories from this game. I remember raging so hard from dying from the boss fights and having to start all over! Such a unique Mario game.
I never thought I played this game, until I watched the gameplay, saw the visuals, heard the soundtrack. Then nostalgia hit me like a freight train. OMG... THIS GAME!!!
Rather hard for me to believe I was just 10 years old when the original black and white version of this was released. Still among my favorite Mario games to this day, and in my opinion one of the best also.
Congratulations for earning a TH-cam channel total of 52,800,000 worldwide video views!! This is my favorite Super Mario Land game ever, because you can win, NintendoComplete!!
This is my most favorite Mario game and Pumpkin is my favorite zone. I remember running out of batteries while playing this for hours. Thanks for sharing your gameplay. I really enjoyed it.❤
Metroid was 1991. Also, Metroid 2 wasn’t all that great until the Game Boy Color era because without the colors it looked bland and hard to explore because most rooms looked the same.
Man, seeing this game in color just reminds me how impressive the graphics were on the original when it dropped. It had Super Mario World-esque graphics on the gameboy. I’d kill for the absolute best of the gameboy to get a collection release on the Switch
Thank you ! This has been one of my favourite games since I was a child. My father bought me a brand new game boy classic + this game when their were new on the market. This was so good back in the days and it still is !
Tengo 42 años y conozco casi todos los juegos de SMB en todas las consolas…nunca podré superar a Mario Bros, este es y será el mejor juego que nunca haya existido. En especial el tan recordado Mario Bros 3
I had this song stuck in my head for years and I didn’t know where it came from and I kept looking for it and I’ve finally found it :) I’m very happy right now
i remember playing this as a kid and i did not understand how to beat the game or what i had to do but i did beat it evuentualy and this had so much nostalgia
What!? Im crying. Very nostalgic soundtrack. My brother and I love this game a lot, way back 23 yrs ago, and now all those good memories are coming back. We've recorded all the soundtrack in cassette tape. I want to go back in past right now.
My brother had the Game Boy, and this was one of his many games. Watching this video brings back memories-I'm so wanting my own Game Boy. True, I could download it and play it in emulation, but that doesn't have quite the same nostalgia as the hardware, and I'd much rather collect the physical games.
Once you get to 41:41 you don't need any more coins, but you spent the time to collect them for no reward other than the dinging, for which I respect you greatly.
Jerky's COC Yeah, it was a nice touch but it was only there so you could tell the difference between Super Mario and Fire Mario in black and white. Same reason why the 1up heart replaced the 1up mushroom too.
Oh, cool! I had no idea this had finished! People have been trying to do this for a decade now, it feels like. Last I checked, it still crashed after every level and was a pain to play. I'm so glad it's complete!
My story of Nintendo Gameboy (It's Real) In 2010, I was 8 years old, I had a friend in school who was kind of a short tempered guy but kind. One day the teacher scolded him for no reason(he got blamed for something he didn't do), so he got angry and waited for teacher to continue the lecture, as lecture resumed he took out a Nintendo Gameboy Color (at that time I didn't know anything about those) and he started playing this Mario game( the game in this video) in the middle of the lecture with full volume(we all heard the background music, and music of Mario taking coins),teacher noticed him and they had a good argument till the bell rang. It was lunch break, I approached him I really wanted to know more about that Nintendo Gameboy, I can't believe he wanted to exchange it with me in place of a comic book.I agreed and took it home but then realized it was unfair, anyway I played it for a few days (almost completed the game) and returned it.. I left that school an year later, Sadly I am not in contact with him anymore, I haven't seen him for like 7 years, idk a thing about him. All I remember is his Face and his Gameboy. I have been looking for this game for Years, all I could remember was a thing named Nintendo, the image of that bird boss and sound of Mario flying with those bunny ears. I am soo happy today I found this video. It brings old memories back. I lost contact will all my friends of that school. Kinda sad for me... I hope I'll meet them someday.
I don't think so. You will only see them again if you're lucky and if fate decides to like you. Not like me. I lose everything and they never come back. I have lost all hope in humanity and in my pride and joy that I once had. So anyway good luck finding them
Wario's major debut. Sadly like Daisy, this game was his only appearance in the main Super Mario series, Super Mario 64 remake on DS aside. But thankfully, unlike the former, Wario became instantly popular as a character enough to become the star of his own series afterwards.
I still remember a classmate in PE in high school brought his Game Boy and this game to school, the game amazed me. I bought the game not long after, played this sucker to death. Still have my copy in box to this day.
Was about to come on here and throw in a little complaint about some of the music being repetitive... Then 20:10 happened, and instantly a part of my memory triggered some nostalgia.
Amazed how good this looks, this was one of my favorite games growing up and whoever did this patch did gods work here. Wish Nintendo re released the first two mario lands on GBA carts like they did with the Advanced series.
Man I loved this game as a kid. I was always so intrigued by the creative worlds, particularly with the Mario World and the Space World. Didn't realise how short the game was though damn XD
It's amazing: I did not even own a gameboy myself and yet I recognize/recall the melodies, the levels, even individual bumps, jump points and where to expect an enemy or pitfall. If only I would remember everything I ever occupied myself with that well :-)
You missed the hidden level in Mario Zone, haha! 😂 But omg, thank you for posting this! The nostalgia, 1st game I ever completed. Love the colourization, too. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. ❤️
It's a feeling indescribable to hear and see that for the first time since I'm 7 yrs. I'm 21 years old now and somehow it feels like I played this game yesterday
i remember playing this as a kid in my mom's old shop in the flea market. Its one of those memory's I associate with the time I spent at the store and my mother. Good and bad memories. Time sure flies....
Not only is this Mario-game way different in some way I cant really explain, but its the only Mario game which doesnt only make me feel nostalgic but also rather melancholic. Its like its overlooked, not liked very much, while still giving its best to entertain you, and therefore it has its own charme - an effort that you just have to appreciate. I guess thats why I feel melancholic about that game.
I guess that would be fitting considering the fate of the guy that created it, Gunpei Yokoi. After making Nintendo obscene amounts of money by creating the Metroid series and the Game Boy system, they completely scapegoated and disgraced him because of the Virtual Boy, and he died a violent, tragic death after being hit by a couple of cars on a freeway just a few years later. Poor guy. Melancholy really is the perfect word there.
@@NintendoComplete Wow didnt know that backstory. Yes. This game always did feel different and special. Hit by COUPLE of cars? How can I imagine that. Did he commit suicide?
@@ButThatsMuhFreeduhm Iirc, he rear-ended someone, and he got out to talk to the other driver and got nailed by car driving by, and then another one hit him after that. I think he died a bit later at hospital.
Great playthrough. One of the best handheld Marios out there (only second to 3D Land in my opinion). Too bad it has few levels to enjoy it, like 6 zones and only 3-4 levels per zone :( Also the carrot is OP, it makes the game far too easy in my opinion. Thanks for the great video!
This is really the Mario I grew up playing. Only played this on the original GB. I can remember siting in the doctors office with my mom playing this. Kept me occupied for sure. lol

The difference this colour palette makes is actually astounding. It brings out the graphics even better than I remember as a child.
This is amazing. The colors really bring the game to life and the speed adjustment is perfect.
Yeah, this is a game that was almost meant to be played on the super GameBoy when it first came out.
@@AWriterWanderingthis isn't the super game boy. it's a full colour rom hack for GBC.
I can't begin to imagine how much love and effort went into this
Thank you beautiful bloke whomever you are

Yeah
The "with lyrics" version by brentalfloss is great too :)
The soundtrack's amazing.
no
It’s OK I guess I prefer the original super Mario land music though
The best Mario Game Boy game ever created IMO. The music ranks up there with Koji Kondo's composition, the new enemies are creative, fun, and even cute, and we still have plenty of classic SMB enemies.

It makes the first SML look like a beta by comparison. And this color redux? Excellent!!
Bro facts
You do know that picking shells up came in Super Mario Bros. 3 not World, right? Or if your an absolute madman, in the American Super Mario Bros. 2.
"The best Mario Game Boy game ever created"
the lowest of bars...
This colorization is spot on. Wish more people would do simple mods like this.
What's even weirder is that the coloration of Super Mario Land 2 was hard-coded into the GameBoy Color, meaning Nintendo could have chosen the correct colors, yet didn't. I think it was because of the lack of screen lighting that they painted everything in light turquoise.
I like how they made the level starting around the 24:00 mark get progressively darker as it's traveled through. That's a nice touch.
This is a top tier game boy game. Perfect sound track. Man, this gives me great memories.
Mario Land 2 is a classic game that's been made even better - the color graphics really show off what an impressive, good-looking game this was on the Game Boy.
Happy New Year, everybody!

The fact that this game is still in my muscle memory after over 25 years 😭😭 I remember ever move, secret entrance, the music just everything!
I remember playing this on our GameBoy when I was younger. Love the nostalgia, everything about this game was great. Will always be one of my faves.
The nostalgia...I remember having this game back in elementary, how time flies..one of the best Gameboy games no cap🧢
these music themes are invincible. literally. like they were the first sounds I ever heard in my entire life
I got this the day it came out, back in 1992. Man, that was a great time. Hard to believe it's been this long since.
Wow. This patch really does make it look even better.
I got this game at the airport in 1993 when we went on holiday to Barbados. I played this game every night before bed for those 2 weeks. Hearing the music and sound effects reminds me of the wonderful holiday 27 years ago. I was 10!!
Here I am once again taking a trip down memory lane. It's 30 years this year since that amazing holiday and my getting this game.
Great game...
Game Boy was a beast. Such adictive and original games...
This is a true definition of nostalgia
The music on end of the game was really cute treat for finishing the game xD
Oh boy so many memories from this game. I remember raging so hard from dying from the boss fights and having to start all over! Such a unique Mario game.
I’m not alone 😂 the feeling when the door opens and after seeing the 6 coins going away 🤣🤬🤬
How much I loved that game as a kid! Great to see it like this, and the music still gets me. Such expression with such few bits!
Omg thank god for TH-cam. I miss this game so much. All the little music in each level is bringing back good memories
Thank you for reliving my childhood! I first played this game when I was 8, which is around the time this game came out.

This was the first game my dad got me on the gameboy. Whoever colorized it - well done.
best game, hands down. the soundtrack is just perfect, and they fit the graphics amazingly and its just the best part of my childhood :]

For a game on the GB, the level detail is amazing! One of the reasons I loved playing this game.
One of the best games of the original Game Boy. This game was a massive upgrade from the 1st Mario Land.
My first game ever and I remember every single sound in this whole game hearing them now. Nostalgia hitting me.
Unbelievable that they haven't put this out for the Nintendo Switch yet.
I hope they'll do it
Thanks for letting me know! :] I've just checked it out, awesome!

Wario's major debut. Sadly like Daisy, this game was his only appearance in the main Super Mario series, Super Mario 64 remake on DS aside. But thankfully, unlike the former, Wario became instantly popular as a character enough to become the star of his own series afterwards.
The Mario Land games are not even part of the main series, as far as I can tell.
Nintendo doesn't like to count them. Just look at the Mario 25th Anniversary promotional material, where the Land games are left out of the timeline.
Yes but Nintendo doesn't actually have reality controlling powers, so these are Mario games.
Yes need a new a Warioland
Wario was a terrible char in my opinion
I still remember a classmate in PE in high school brought his Game Boy and this game to school, the game amazed me. I bought the game not long after, played this sucker to death. Still have my copy in box to this day.
