Cons: No saving

Pros: Game playing at its best
Cute graphics as well
Cons: Very addictive
Summary: If you haven't heard of this game, you must have been living under a rock, in a far off place. 'Cause this is most likely the most popular Mario game and with good reason to. The Plot That in itself is fairly simple. There are eight worlds in which ... read more
