Oh man, Super Mario Bros. on GBA is basically the classic NES version but with some nice little upgrades. You still get that perfect side-scrolling platforming where you stomp Goombas, grab mushrooms, and try not to fall into pits (easier said than done). The GBA version adds a save feature, which is a lifesaver—no more writing down those long passwords!

Controls feel tight, just like the original, though the GBA’s smaller buttons take a minute to get used to. And yeah, the screen’s a bit cramped compared to a TV, but once you’re bouncing off Koopas and hunting for hidden blocks, you stop noticing. It’s still one of the best ways to play Mario on the go.
