    There needs to be more multiplayer battle Mario games out there. Another great one is the Mario Vs. Luigi mode in New Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo DS. If you liked Mario Bros. on GBA, then you’ll definitely like that one as well. :)

      I resented the one in NSMB until a hack over a decade after release properly made the game co-op as originally intended. Now I enjoy it.
      Though, I still resent the one in SM64DS for the aforesaid reason regarding NSMB.

    That does look like a lot of fun. I'm susprised Nintendo never considered a multitap version of it in the SNES days, as their own multiplayer offerings on the console were pretty slim.

      They did toy around with it as 2 player in Super Mario All Stars, but it was not too popular then. Perhaps if it was multitap compatible and offered 4 player mayhem, it would have been a Smash (pun intended).

    I did manage to play this awesome multi-player when I had a link cable for our family's GBAs. It's such a fun mode, especially when it's 1v1 with all the power-ups.
    And the fact that any five of the Mario games that have the awesome Mario Bros remake are compatible with each other is just the icing on the cake! The only other franchise that has done this kind of cross-compatible multi-player is Bomberman via a few of the Bomberman DS games. Bomberman Story, Bomberman 2, and the DSi Ware Bomberman Blitz can connect with each other via the multi-player mode! This is because of the Bomberman Battle Pack 2 engine the games use.

    You should try out super mario war, its an old school fan game I admittedly don't know a ton about, but it's four players, and features similar gameplay to what you showed along with tons of maps and gamemodes. The default game mode is more similar to NSMB for the DS where you can stomp other players, but not to get stars but rather to get points. There are a ton of other game modes I haven't tried yet so there may be something closer to the original mario bros, or even another mode you may like
