An interesting thing to note here is that you also really put Sonic 1 in its best form - the future re-releases of Sonic 1 were further enhanced by Widescreen support (honestly such a big deal, being able to see further ahead is HUGE when you're trying to go fast), the spin dash (wasn't originally there on the first release of Sonic 1, and its kind of weird to go back to not having it), and the ability to play as more characters. Meanwhile, Super Mario All-Stars.... looks better and has saving. It's appreciated, but All-Stars doesn't do as much for Mario 1 as the extra re-releases of Classic Sonic do for Sonic 1.
Mario all day 😀
Yeah I'm 100% with you there. Sonic classics are actually up to current standards because of the remakes. All Nintendo has done is rerelease all-stars. I actually prefer the GBA versions to All-stars since they have just a bit more qualify of life improvements. That being said, Sonic absolutely requires widescreen. That extra screen really helps you see what's coming ahead of you compared to playing 4:3 on the Genesis. Mario on the other hand doesn't suffer too much without it imo
@@NintenDeen Imagine if they crammed every 2D Mario platformer Into the version of Super Mario All Stars, this time with modern 3D graphics like the NSMB series. And I mean all the 2D platformers!
@@Oturan20 I've always wondered if the NSMB artstyle was bland or if the issue was that they just didn't seem to do anything too exciting with it often. Honestly for a lot of the classics I wouldn't even bother upgrading how they look lol. Just throw them on 1080p with widescreen and it's good enough for me
@@NintenDeen It would be for me too, honestly I wish Nintendo would release more game collections in general
Makes sense both sonic CD and mario bros 2/usa are considered the black sheep of the classic games that is a ethier you love it or hate it state despite introducing some popular characters to the series.
Yup. Plus they both have unique developmental history with something related to the US, whether it's re-skinning Doki Western Mario fans, or Yuji Naka going to San Francisco to help develop Sonic 2. Basically I don't think either one was created as a proper sequel so there's almost a symmetry to how they fit in to their respective series. I'll discuss it a bit more in my next vid too obviously
19:37 - The Lost Levels on the Super Mario All-Stars cart aren't a completion bonus for Super Mario 1. They're the Japanese version of Super Mario Bros 2. Super Mario Bros 2 in the USA is the game Doki Doki Panic reskinned to be Mario. Basically, Nintendo released Super Mario Bros 2 in Japan and realized they'd made the game too bloody hard so they decided to use the later NA release as a chance tweak it. This was probably also a good idea as by the time they got around to releasing the game in the US NES games had and cartridge mapper chips had advanced from the SMB1 art style and by 1988 it already looked outdated.
Also, I have finished it, every single level of it from level 1 to 9 worlds A, B, C, and D and it was a great experience but that was with the benefit of a guide and the All - Stars save system which lets you restart on the level you died at (IE: 8-4) where as the original you had to continue from the beginning of the world.
I've finished both games by playing through every single level from start to finish.
While I used save stats with Mario 1, I would only save at the start of each stage.
The sense of accomplishment is amazing with both of these.
"If I ever make it to Sonic Adventures vs Mario 64"... Why not Sonic Adventure (1 or 2) vs Super Mario Sunshine instead? Sunshine actually tried to have a story, where as for Mario 64 the story is more of a stage setting device than anything. SA1 and Sunshine both have that tropical setting too.
It's REALLY interestin & also REALLY funny I C this now & U state how Mario 1 is more fun playin like a sonic game & vice versa. There's this youtuber I really like who's mostly known for doin Sonic reviews & decided to do a whole vid goin over EVERY major 2D mario release from Mario 1 to Wonder. & they said THE SAME THING for Mario 1 & lost levels & ultimately stated that those & the Luigi 1 R their FAVES specifically cus their design was more sonic like & didn't like the rest includin Wonder & SO MANY ppl hated the vid for lookin at the games the way he did cus he didn't seem to look at them for wut ppl THOUGHT they were. But lookin at it Sonic was inspired by MARIO 1 & most 2D games after that DON'T PLAY THAT WAY lol. There's more to it than that & their vids go over it better but ur point to Sonic 1 in that regard makes sense too lol. Tho I haven't played Mario 1 in my life yet I feel while I might like it I still would prefer sonic 1 overall but all that could jus be over-bias. My 1st 2D mario was the 1st New super mario bros. for Wii & to this day I still haven't beaten it lol.
That's interesting, who's the other CZcamsr? I'd be down to check out his stuff
@@NintenDeen They're @Pariah6950. imo All their stuff is great & helped appreciate & understand so much of the series more
Oh I already watch his sonic vids. Haven't seen his Mario stuff, only his Sonic was Always good stuff. I actually think if he made shorter vids that were a bit more focused it would be great for the Sonic Series perspectives online because he definitely knows his stuff, especially about the dark age games
@@NintenDeen I like the longer vids if it means he goes more in-depth & he prob holds back a bit from wut I can tell based off wut he's said on streams. He doesn't do scripted & he's got A LOT to say (like we all do lol) so I wanna hear as much as possible. Besides longer vids do better for the Algo these days & they're not all that long on-purpose it's jus the nature of wut he feels needs to be said for that vid
Mario is for adventure as sonic is for journey
Lol, can you elaborate?
Oh
Sonic is better
