General Commentary and Game Overview
Three words: BEST. GAME. EVER. Seriously, the first time I saw this game (on YouTube btw) I just had to play it! (For reasons I will discuss later)
 
Pros + EARTHBOUND FTW
+ Cooky gameplay
+ Drippy graphics
+ Luigi's the playable character
 
Cons - The lag. God, the lag.
- The doomship level's unbearable
- Chomps for Bullet Bills? Seriously?
 
Impressions
Gameplay
7 / 10
Okay, loading screen. SMB3 cartridge. Original, to say the least.
The second you start the game, you get a basic (as basic can get) 8-bit world map. Let's go on ahead and play the level.
Okay, the level's starting. One simple block... tempting. Let's hit it and... "Fuzz level overflow." And no joke.
I pretty much consider this game as a "Crazy Crossover". And with reason. Pokemon, Bomberman, Link, Mother, Puzzle Bobble, Megaman, Kirby, this game's got it all! There's even a Bomberman powerup.
Checkpoints really got me going. Seriously, I DON'T want to replay the whole level again, thank you very much.
My favorite part was the boss. New Age Retro Hippie, with music to match.
 
Graphics
7 / 10
From everywhere. From Mario to Megaman, through MOTHER and Puzzle Bobble. This is why I consider this game to be a "Crazy Crossover".
Of course, there's also the graphics of a regular "Normal" Mario game, like the awesome Awesome face.
 
Sound
9 / 10
Of course there is this drippy music everyone loves, and then there's that music I like, like the boss music. Sound effects were over the mill though.
 
Replay
8 / 10
A lot more replay than before. Now with collectibles (my favorite's the Mr. Saturn) and a new Hard Mode, you're bound to play the game at least twice.
Still are not convinced? How about a little challenge. Try to beat the boss with one point of sanity left, while on Hard Mode. Come on. I dare you.
 
Final Words
9 / 10
If you haven't already, play this game now! You won't regret it.
