Game is fun but frustrating because you can't save your game

This game is a classic Mario game. It is very challenging because every time you lose all your lives, you have to start at the beginning. This gets boring after a while.

Pretty cool

This game was pretty cool, but I had failed to read the instruction manual and got really frusterated at a few levels. I think its really cool that it keeps sending on new challenges. I would recomend this to people with at least a sliver of patiance though.

It's a fun game!

This is a really fun game. Only a couple of problems really... first off, everything is so tiny! The other thing is, there are only 12 levels, and none of them are as difficult as some of the levels of the original Super Mario Bros. But, for the Game Boy, it is a really good game!

Great game

This was the second Game Boy game I ever played (the first was Tetris, which came with Game Boy's back in 1990) and was the game that made me a crazy Game Boy fan. Sure, it wasn't the traditional Mario game in the storyline. You fought the alien Tatanga to rescue Princess Daisy of Sarasaland instead of King Koopa, Princess Peach, and the Mushroom Kingdom. But, you were still Mario, there were still power mushrooms and fire flowers, and you still got to crush those poor, little Goombas.

As Mario games go, this one is pretty easy. 4 Kingdoms. 3 worlds per kingdom. And a bass that is easy to beat. Beating the game will only take a little concentration and maybe an hour, tops, for even the most unskilled gamer. But, it has great replay value (if you lose all your lives, there's no save, and there are special, harder games if you win, which also you can't save) and is a great game for young kids to start off with in addition to obviously Pokémon. Don't be surprised when they take a break from raising Pokémon that SML will be in their Game Boys. I knew it was when I got my Game Boy in 1990.

My 8 year old son states "it's fun and very enjoyable. There are lots of monsters to jump on!"

Could be better!

The first question I would have for the makers of this game is why can't I save the progress I make? Once you lose all of your lives, you have to start all over at the beginning, which gets extremely tiresome. I had Super Mario Land on my Super Nintendo and loved it so I bought this one, figuring it would be just as good... wrong! I would definitely not recommend this game if you are looking for something challenging and fun. As for me, I have put Mario away and am currently working on Donkey Kong Land, which is much more fun AND it lets you save your game!

Very, Very Fun

This game is so fun! It really can`t get boring because their are always new levels to go to. If you tried it and you thought it was boring because you keeped losing just give it a chance and play some more. I noticed the more you play the better you get.

This Game is Good!

It's fun, but the graphics aren't too good. It's not as good as the Nintendo 64 version. It's challenging for kids which makes it fun for a long time. I recommend this as a good game.

Fun for a while...

Super Mario Land is fun, but after a while, it can get boring. The graphics really aren't that great, and they're really small. I couldn't get past level 3-3 because it's impossible. I hope this review helps you.
