Game Review - originally written by Kitsune Sniper

BS Super Mario USA is the game that we knew as Super Mario Bros. 2, released on the Japan-only BS Satellaview system. You know, the system that let you download and play games only on certain dates and times? Well, the game is just like Super Mario Bros. 2 on Super Mario All-Stars on the SNES, except there’s no music (probably an emulation issue), and there are hidden statues in the game. There are four known dumps, and each dump goes through one world and a final boss. Oh yeah, there’s a score, too! And it seems like characters speak to you, but you can’t hear or read anything for some reason. And you can only use Mario.

But the games are just as fun as the original.
(editor's note: you can hear them speak to you now and the game is a little more complicated than just being SMB2 again, they used this as a basis for SMA1)
