The classic NES game that started it all.

You play as Mario or also know as Jumpman.Donkey has kidnapped Princess Peach and has gone mad with power taking her and destroying huge steel girders and throwing barrel's of the highest steel girder.All you really can do is jump over things and nothing else except you have a hammer and can destroy the barrels.Jumping over over gets really boring after a while and it always seems that Jumpman just barely make's it over the barrels.Jumpman really came up short in this one...It really seems that once you start jumping you've done everything.The game is great for hard core Mario and Nintendo fans but for everyone else it'll be somewhat hard.All and all this game is a great piece to any NES collection or Nintendo collection.Overall good game.This game is great for the arcade styling's its fun yet challenging but lacks some potential.But still good game.
