( Penny Arcade doesn't like this too much either.) Why not make any power ups work for all players, just like the 1Ups earned by collecting coins do? That’s not really fair, and that’s the best outcome! Often, mushrooms fall off the screen, or get picked up by a player who was already powered up. The best case scenario is that one player gets to shoot fire while the other two grow to Super size. It becomes a mad dash to get to the Fire Flower. Mario bumps a power up block, and a Fire Flower and two mushrooms fly out of it. For example, let’s say you are in a three player game.

The franchise has become such a massive success that developers have dipped their toes into a wide-array of genres and subtypes, with 3D adventures, sports games, racers, party games, and more. Updated March 28th, 2022 by Russ Boswell: There have been tons of Super Mario Bros. It’d be an exercise in futility to discuss every single 2D Mario game, but there are 10 that specifically warrant mention. While many may argue that the franchise’s heights belong to the 3D side of things, 2D Mario has a far more consistent output of game, effectively eclipsing 3D Mario entirely. set a precedent for good controls, good level design, and good music that is still being adhered to today.
