Mario is ice cream. Sometimes people like cake (Halo), and some people prefer cheese and crackers (Gran Turismo), but everybody always loves ice cream. The question is though, as infamously asked by Craig David - what's your flava? I'm more than willing to admit that Super Mario Bros 3 and Super Mario World are fantastic games and I love them to bits, and technically they're so much better than Super Mario Land, but this Game Boy classic is incredible. I loved it when it was all I played on the Game Boy, I loved it when I bought a second copy ten years later and played it on my Game Boy Advance. Why do I love it so? Let me count the ways.

Out of the skies of Sarasaland suddenly there emerged Tatanga. This unknown space monster came to conquer this peaceful world, taking their people under his control and now, he wants to marry Princess Daisy. Yes, Mario has to save another Princess (but also Sarasaland) in what is the first Super Mario game for the Game Boy. To do so Mario must journey through the 4 kingdoms of Sarasaland. A platform game similar to Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Land never did recreate the same level of control as in the NES game. Here he feels a tad sensitive; precision can be a problem as the sprites in the game are small - though this does gives the player (more than) a ... Read the complete review

One of the first games I got for my Game Boy, Super Mario Land was actually the very first Mario game owned by anyone in my household, and while I went on to pick up series entries for the NES,SNES and Nintendo 64 consoles, I always held a special place in my heart for this game. Then of course I decided to review it and went into it in as clear a mind as possible. If there was one thing I liked about the game, it was that unlike many games released for the Game Boy, it didn't lie and try to make out that it was the same game as it's home console counterpart. This, I suppose, was so people didn't go in with expectations of the sheer excellence that was the ... Read the complete review

Released to coincide with the launch of Nintendo's original Game Boy was a platformer featuring one of the company's most recognisable and popular characters. The game was Super Mario Land, and starred the unlikely super hero Mario, an Italian plumber. This initial platformer created a tidal wave of similar games, with many providing little in terms of game play. Fortunately, Super Mario Land represents a true hand held classic, and is still able to compete against recent titles in terms of quality and play ability. Mario's first hand held adventure found him on a mission to release the beautiful Princess Daisy, who was being held captive by the ... Read the complete review

"Super Mario Land" is a video game released for the Gameboy console in 1990 by Nintendo. It is based on the then emerging Super Mario series and is the first release for the Gameboy. In the United States, the game received a rating of "E" by the ESRB panel which deemed it suitable for all ages. The plot surrounding Mario is a typical fantasy where Super Mario is on a quest to eliminate the evil minions of King Bowser, and ultimately deal with Bowser himself, in aims of securing the release of a kidnapped Princess Toadstool. Super Mario Land changes the plot somewhat to replace King Bowser with an unnamed villain and Princess Toadstool to ... Read the complete review
