General Commentary and Game Overview
It's a decent remake/port if you want to relive the days of the "Advance" series or the original arcade game. Everything is here, from the Advance graphics and sounds to the ability to play as Toad. It is, however, just a remake/port, and it doesn't stray far from there. I will say it's a fun trip through memory lane, but I could just play this on my GBA or emulator.
 
Pros + 3 characters.
+ Ability to select level theme.
+ Local multiplayer
 
Cons - Character moves a little too fast.
- No POW block.
- Repetitive gameplay, like the original.
 
Impressions
Gameplay
8 / 10
It's pretty close to the original Advance version of Mario Bros. so if you've played that, it's only a step behind it. This does have the same "smack enemies from below" gameplay, and pretty much only that is what you do.
 
Graphics
7 / 10
It's mostly graphics ripped straight from the Advance version of Mario Bros., so I can't really judge it all that much. The Koopa Troopa/Shellcrawler sprite looks a little odd, but that may just be me.
 
Sound
6 / 10
The sounds are ripped from the GBA games, so the quality is kinda bad, but it's not really the developer's fault on that.
 
Replay
4 / 10
It's a neat little time-killer if you don't have an emulator or GBA handy, but there's not much that's new or would keep me playing more than a couple minutes.
 
Final Words
8 / 10
It's pretty decent for a remake/port, with the addition of local multiplayer and 3 playable characters, it's a neat time-waster, but you'll probably only be playing it for a couple minutes before the repetition gets to you.

About the POW im sure their is a POW in the game. You may have just not seen it. All the Characters are locked on running speed which is the running speed on the Original game. "Why?" Because they walk very slow in the Original game (I didn't want it to be boreing because of that) For the repeditive part, i may add an option for their to be two more game mode's. Endless and Level's
