What are the chances Super Mario Bros. Deluxe will be released? Will we get it or will Nintendo decide to remake the NES version instead?

My maic 8 ball says:

"Most likely"

for SMB Deluxe.

My maic 8 ball says:

"Not an ice cube's chance in hell"

But... maybe neither maic 8 ball knows. Maybe...

...only Nintendo knows.

Magic meatball says:

"Definitely yes."

My magic spaghetti counters your Magic meatball and says:

"Mayble"

Maybe we'll get the NES Mario games as 3D classics.

Yeah, I'd rather get SMB and SMB2 as NES Classics. SMB DX weird camera ruins the gameplay.

Considering it's somewhat of a flawed compromise release with the loss of like a 1/4 of the screen space (which causes issues in some late stages with leaps of faith) it's not a bad game. But due to that if they add GBA to the roster of VC games you can kiss it goodbye as NES Classics SMB does it right and full screen with hot saves and hi score saving too, just as the GBA 'mario advance' stuff gave us the other games gutting and tweaked from Allstars or snes remixed ports (smw1 and 2.)

or they can just release Super Mario All Stars as a 3D Classic and problems solved.

@tanookisuit but Deluxe brought various improvements, such as stage select, simultaneous multiplayer, challenges, and it had the levels from The Lost Levels. Hopefully Nintendo will make a compromise, taking the camera from the original NES game, and injecting it with the extras from Deluxe.

They'll probably want us to buy 3D Classics of SMB 1, 2, 3, and the Lost Levels, so I'm guessing they won't release this game because they'd be giving us two games for the price of 1. Plus, the screen doesn't really do it justice. Then again, a lot of people might buy this and the NES versions, so I guess it's possible they'd release it anyway just to try to sell us more copies of the same game over and over.

It was also the only regular Mario game ever released to the GBC.

Maybe they could've done it as a colorized Super Mario Land ROM hack?

I have a SMB deluxe cartridge, AND a gameboy advance, so I don't really care if it came to the eShop...unless it was a 3D classic of course. :3

For me the Deluxe version lacks the second screen. The picture is just too small for my liking. You couldn't see the ground when standing on a platform. Leaps of faith all the time if you don't know the original by heart.

If you want a good handheld Super Mario Bros. port/remake

• I suggest Nintendo makes Super Mario Bros. double screen
• makes it 3D
• makes it (like) Deluxe
• then re-release it.

I am not amused by implying my favorite remake ever is anything other than awesome.

I get it, a mix of the features of Deluxe yet the full view area of the GB Classic would be best, but also NOA is notoriously lazy so I was taking it from a black or white comparison knowing their habits. The mix was best, but I was going for all or nothing.

You're smart enough to know that Nintendo won't ever do that, SKTTR

I guess they'll remake the NES version.

I wish i would have known that back in the day 'cause it sounds awesome.
It would be really great if Nintendo did that. Keep the orginal graphics though and maybe make them 3D. I mean look at the success of MegaMan 10.
