'Super Mario Bros. Crossover' makes for a great trip down memory lane. Sporting the exact pixelated look of most games from the late 1980's, the game begins as the original Super Mario Bros. However, the whole vintage gaming gang is eventually resurrected, from The Legend of Zelda's main character Link to the arcade classic Street Fighter's Ryu.
Created by Jay Pavlina, this nonprofit game is generally faithful to the true abilities and weaknesses of the original characters, and even plays the appropriate theme songs! The 'Super Mario Bros. Crossover' gives a true classic gaming experience.
