The game contains [[Video game remake|enhanced remake]]s of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA)|Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. The games are all developed to take advantage of the Super NES hardware, featuring updated graphics and sounds and additional [[Saved game|save]] mechanisms. An alternate version of ''Super Mario All-Stars'' was later released in December 1994 outside of Japan that included ''[[Super Mario World]]''. ''Super Mario All-Stars'' was [[porting|ported]] and re-released for the [[Wii]] in 2010 to celebrate the release of 25th anniversary of ''Super Mario Bros.'' ==Gameplay== {{Main|Super Mario Bros.|Super Mario Bros. 2|Super Mario Bros. 3|Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels}} ''Super Mario All-Stars'' is a video game compilation that features complete remakes of the four ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' [[side-scrolling]] [[platform game]]s that were originally released for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] and the [[Family Computer Disk System|Famicom Disk System]] between 1985 and 1990: ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA)|Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', which was previously a Japanese-exclusive release. The gameplay of each game is identical to its original version, though some [[game physics]] as well as [[Model sheet|character]] and [[level design]]s are slightly modified, and some [[Software bug|bug]]s, including the "[[Minus World]]" in ''Super Mario Bros.'', are fixed. The four games each feature enhanced [[High color|16-bit graphics]] and updated [[Video game music|soundtrack]]s to take advantage of the [[Super NES]] hardware, including [[parallax scrolling]].<ref name="allgame">{{cite web |url=http://www.allgame.com/game.php?id=15189&tab=review |title=Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World review |author=Huey, Christian |publisher=[[Allgame]] |accessdate=May 4, 2013}}</ref> All four games offer a [[Saved game|save feature]], which the original games lacked, allowing the player to save progress and resume play from the start of any previously accessed world. ''The Lost Levels'', however, allows the player to resume play from any previously accessed individual level. Up to four individual save files can be stored for each game. The games also allow the player to customize control configuration, allowing the "jump" and "dash" actions to be mapped to different buttons on the Super NES [[Gamepad|controller]]. ==Re-releases== In December 1994, an alternate version of the compilation entitled '''''Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World''''' was released in both North America in Europe both as a stand-alone game and as a [[pack-in game]] for the Super NES console. This version features ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as a fifth playable game, which was released for the Super NES in 1991. The game is identical to the original version, but [[Luigi]]'s [[Sprite (computer graphics)|sprite]]s were updated to reflect his current character design, distinct from and no longer a [[pallete swap]] of [[Mario]].<ref name="snes 20">{{cite web |url=http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/feature/27422 |title=The SNES 20: Super Mario All-Stars + World |author=Brown, Andrew |date=August 18, 2011 |publisher=Nintendo World Report}}</ref> The remakes of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' were remade and released for the [[Game Boy Advance]] as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2#Super Mario Advance|Super Mario Advance]]'' in 2001 and ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' in 2003, respectively. ''Super Mario All-Stars'' was [[Porting|ported]] to the [[Wii]] in 2010, released as '''''Super Mario All-Stars 25th Anniversary Edition''''' to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the release of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' It was released in Japan on October 21, 2010 and in all other regions in December 2010, distributed in [[Nintendo optical disc|Wii optical disc]] format. The game disc contains an [[Video game console emulator|emulation]] of the original SNES [[ROM image]], with support for the [[Wii Remote]], [[Classic Controller]], and [[GameCube]] controllers.<ref name="allstars wii nwr review">{{cite web |url=http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/review/24568 |title=Super Mario All-Stars Review |publisher=Nintendo World Report |date=December 17, 2010 |accessdate=May 4, 2013}}</ref> A 32-page booklet detailing the history of the ''Super Mario'' franchise and an [[audio CD]] containing [[video game music|music]] from each ''Super Mario'' game were bundled with the game disc.<ref name="allstars wii details">{{cite web |url=http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/24363 |title=Super Mario All-Stars Wii Coming to North America |date=October 28, 2010 |author=Yeung, Karlie |publisher=Nintendo World Report |accessdate=May 4, 2013}}</ref> The game sold 307,755 copies in its first week, selling more copies than any other title that week.

The proof of purchase and $3.50 USD—to cover postage and handling—was required to be mailed into Nintendo and ''Super Mario All-Stars'' was sent out to the buyer. The Wii version received mixed reviews. Critics such as [[IGN]] criticized it for being a straight port from the original [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] version but praised it for being, "The same classic games we remember". IGN gave it a 7/10. [[VideoGamer]] gave it an 8/10. However, ''[[The A.V. Club]]'' gave the Wii version an "F", saying that the bonus materials included with the game were "disappointing".<ref>Heisler, Steve. (2010-12-27).
