Super mario advance 1

I got this game for christmas.

I had liked Super mario advance 2, so I wanted to get the original version. after all these years I still havent beaten it though. Some parts require you to find a key or something to open a door. Several parts have some rather difficult and frustrating "puzzles" where there are a lot of pipes to go down and one of them is hiding the key, for example.

I like how you can pick 4 different characters. Each one has their ups and downs- Luigi can jump the best of all, mario is fast but does not jump as high as luigi, toad sucks at jumping and is slow, and peach is mid-speed, and does not jump high, but if you hold the button down she can "hover" for a short time.

The music is, as far as I know, basically the same as the (NES? SNES? which console did this originally come out on?) but I never actually had the original one so I cant make a judgement on that. It does make the game sound more like it was made by fisher price than nintendo, though. Not a deal breaker but something to think about.

I really dont care all that much about the graphics in games. I cant really make a judgement on whether it's the same or updated from the original because, well, I never had the original!
