A Critical Look At The MOST BIZZARE Mario Game Ever Made- Mario 3: Around The World

  • Nintendo has yet to release a new 2D Mario game in almost a decade. The latest entry New Super Mario Bros. U is going to be a decade old this year. It's a Wii U game, not a Nintendo Switch game. While Super Mario Maker 2 does serve as a new 2D Mario adventure for most, it is not quite the same as a traditional entry. I have wanted a new Mario platformer for quite some time, and I oddly found a Sega Genesis (Mega Drive) game that is a brand new original Mario game made from the ground up. It is a fairly recent game too. But is it any good?

    The reason why “Mario 3: Вокруг света” was released on the genesis in 2011 is because in Russia, they have Sega Genesis that still around, even to this day. According to Sega Retro, it says "Since the end of 2010s, there has been a sharp increase in interest in Sega clones in Russia. In 2019, Sega and Dendy clones had 18% shares in sales of consoles in Russia. The main reason for this may have been the growing interest in retro consoles released by Nintendo, Sega and Sony in the world".

      Interesting! I know the Sega Master System and Sega Genesis are still sold and quite popular in Brazil. But it seemed bizzare in Russia considering how modern game consoles are readily available. Nintendo actually left Brazil for a few years.

      @@Demeech a lot of Russians can't afford modern consoles (ESPECIALLY if we're talking about buying games, the prices here STING), so getting a bootleg console for a child isn't out of the ordinary. Sega Mega Drive and Dendy (or famiclones in general) are fondly remembered which also influences their popularity. Bootleg consoles are so widespread that you could find one right in the center of Moscow (no joke)

There was a partnership with Steepler in the 90's to sell Super Nintendo but other than that I don't think they really bothered officially distributing their consoles in this region until Wii happened. Despite some later localization efforts, though, the situation is pretty bad, especially in smaller countries like Belarus, yes

    I personally think Luigi’s mansion has the scariest game over screen

    The only reason why I know about this is because Vinny Vinesauce played it before

    One thing you didn't mention about the sound design is while the music is good. The sound effects are awful.

      I believe the sound effects are from Uwol: Quest For Money. I didn't mind them.

    Is this just a remake of Super Mario Land?

    Already played this bootleg before. Never managed to complete the first world because of those crappy controls.
