We've already seen hints that Super Mario on 3DS will include the famous Tanooki suit from Super Mario Bros. 3. What would the entire game look like in 3D, though? Let user Kevin Zeeff show you.
As part of Zeeff's "Game Cubed" series, Mario's best 8-bit adventure has received a retro 3D makeover, and while it's not exactly up there with the graphics on Super Mario Galaxy 2 it's still an interesting and fresh take on a revered classic.

Paper Mario much?
I would love to see a Metroid one.
I've never been one to complain about camera control, but good god, the constant rotation is a bit absurd. It's not like I'll forget that it's 3d / polygonal if they cease changing the angle for a millisecond.
"not exactly up there with the graphics on Super Mario Galaxy 2" I didn't think it was meant to be :S
Oh & Super Mario World >>>>>>>> Super Mario Bros. 3 Otherwise this rocks!
Too bad it isn't actual game code
That's really cool, but yeah, what wariowoods said.
Super Paper Mario?
sonic the hedgehog for hire. aww poor guy
@WiiLovePeace I know it's not supposed to rival Super Mario Galaxy 2 SMB3 > SMW, too.
WHAT THE HECK IS THIS! LOL. I can't stop laughing for some reason.
Yeah... square pipes. Didn't like it one bit.
This... makes me nauseous
Only a LITTLE awesome?
Wow.
That was somehow even more atrocious than those GMod-Mario levels.
There's a reason this stays in 2D.
@JesusSaves: Well is it not obvious? Super Mario Bros. 3 > Super Mario World
that's a great way to spoil the playability of this game.
ARRRGGGHHH!!! SMW>SMB3
when is the 3ds compo announced.
Ugh, horrible camerawork on that video ruins any sense of "ok thats kinda cool".
Blasted down even further by Super Paper mario doing an infinitely better job of a 3d take on 2d mario.
Wow. Add this to the now near-bottomless pile of "3D Mario remakes by someone who never got past basic cube modelling"
The video was not bad. But who the hell hired the Lokitu for cameraman?! He sucks so bad. I vote Boo to take his job.
Mario Party > SMW & SMB3
I like my 2D games 2D, my 3D games 3D (with the exception of Super Paper Mario).
I think I enjoyed the "Sonic The Hedgehog For Hire" ending the most!
@James Newton: There is a better looking one made by Freddiew! =D

You can even watch the video in 3D if you have the red/blue glasses!
Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World both suck equally.
@Nani-ka Yes, that is much better. Thanks to yt3D options you don't have to use red/cyan, I used my TrioScopics glasses.
Honestly, this was a pain in he rear end to watch. The constantly changing camera got to me after like, ten seconds.
i'm glad i'm not the only one who wound up annoyed by the camera... i just wanted to make that Lakitu be still. i normally don't get motion-sick, but i think playing SMB3 through like that would have me hurling after the first three levels of it D:
This looks impressive, but I bet it would be a real nightmare actually playing it with the camera shifting like that.
Looks awesome, but atleast its fanmade. But guys, I'm sure if the game came out with rotating camera angles, you should be able to adjust that however you want. First person mario.. thats something I've dreamed of...
And @Nani-Ka: You are so right, that looks so much better but this is Super Mario Bros 3, lol. But it looks like Freddie used something from Call of Duty on that video... whenever he collects the mushroom he completes the challenge "Acid Trip". Lol. Looks awesome though.
I totally forgot about Mario Bros. coming for 3DS because I had Mario Kart 3DS and Ocarina In Time stuck in my head
A little bit awesome? This is a lot awesome!
@JumpMad there is one, sorta. It's called Metroid Cubed. it's been out for quite a while. Here's the link: http://pages.infinit.net/voxel/home.htm#play
I agree about the camera angle comments, didn't like those much- Sorry but it is very clever and I am quite impressed with it! 10 out of 10 for effort though.
Not bad! The squared pipes look a bit stupid, though.
It's Super Mario Bros. 3, now with added
nausea inductiondimension!Cool.... it may be another reason to get the 3DS
Interesting concept and would be cool to play the game in this fashion,It was nice how the camera was panned through the video to give some perception of the level during game play.Nice smb2 music during the credits! ;>)
And in no way is smb3 better than super mario world! Not even gonna debate that,lol.
