Before Playing FAQ
How is the FDS release different to the NES version?
For Super Mario Bros., the gameplay is identical, but it uses a floppy disk which allowed for save-keeping functionality to record high scores between sessions on the Famicom Disk System.
Where are the 1-Up mushrooms you mentioned hidden?
Yes, you can find them by hitting hidden '?' blocks, or by performing a trick: bounce on 8 enemies in a row without touching power-ups
How should beginners approach Super Mario Bros.?
Find and use the hidden Warp Zones at the end of Worlds 1-2, 4-2, and elsewhere, as they can skip you ahead. Reaching World 8 allows you to face Bowser in only 6 stages if you do.
