GB - Super Mario Land

Haiku-Review:

by submarine and
airplane to rescue...Daisy?
but shhh...don't tell Peach

Additional Comments:

Always a personal favorite in the Mario catalog due to its bizarre uniqueness, yet still familiar due to very similar gameplay like that of SMB1.  It's almost as though this was a more fitting sequel than both SMB2 and/or SMB2J (read The Lost Levels) ever was.  I think more than anything, it was just cool seeing all of the enemies carry their original Japanese names instead of suffering through some dire translation, although I always wondered what was up with Chicken.

...and here's two final thoughts to share.
1. Muda had some great music.  Well, really the whole game had pretty great music.
2. This game also spawned, in my opinion, she whom eventually came to be the more attractive of the two princesses in Mario's life. And don't tell me you've never thought about which princess reigns supreme. So there...

Rating: 3.5 Chicken's out of 5
