This thread has been linked to the game 'Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'.
I think we should start a topic on what we think the next Mario Advance should be. I have a few suggestions.
Super Mario Deluxe - I know that is a remake of Super Mario Bros + Lost Levels but I think with GBA resolution ang graphics it would look good. Also the multi-player mode that came with it. I'd like to see it in single pak.
Super Mario Bros. 3 - When I found out the SNES version was a remake I was amazed. It looked so much like a SNES game original and it was so long!
Super Mario RPG - Wasn't this announced on upwire in 2002? Anyway, SMRPG was a great game and I have read it ALL over the internet that other people want it.
Yoshi's Story - We have Final Fantasy Tactics, why not Yoshi's Story. Such a great game that was and being like Super Smash Bros. was just 2D with 3D graphics. Although it doesn't have Mario in it where as Yoshi's Island does.
Supeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer SMASH BROTHERS!!!!!! - Okay, mabye not as a Mario Advance but I think that it is possible to port the N64 version onto the GBA (and mabye even some Gamecube exclusive characters if the cartridge size is big enough)
Mario is Missing - Well it would actually be kind of original as it involved you (as Luigi) finding out what country you're in, getting Yoshi there, recovering Landmarks, etc - so it would be more modern and possibly SMRPG 3D style. Although for the same reasons it might be incredibly boring!
Mario Party - I might have read about this or mabye just a GBA - Gamecube link game but anyway I want a party game on the GBA so it's either Sonic Shuffle or this.
All the GB Super Mario Lands - I never played these as I only got my GBC in 2000 and I wasn't the person who goes on ebay to get them.
Super Mario Sushine - Okay, I know this isn't really within reason but it would be kinda possible.

Too right, what's the point in constantly re-releasing on different formats?
Except to make money of course.
It wouldn't be difficult (if they really have to) to use the old game formats but create new level layouts, would it?
No it wouldn't.
Sort it out!
However GB Super Mario Land is classic, and should be dug out and played (in original GB format).

To port Super Mario Bros Deluxe to a GBA cartridge would be entirely pointless. Some retailers still sell it brand new in its new style box (Doesn't say "Only for Game Boy Color" in the bottom corner and has the GBA logo with a green tick underneath) and so, to slightly modify the graphics and charge £10 more would be pointless.
Super Mario Bros 3 however, hasn't seen a handheld device since it was released as an LCD game on a wristwatch (which I still have - just needs a new battery). I would be happy to purchase this for my Game Boy Advance, as would many other gamers, for it is considered to be the best Super Mario 2D title ever created.
A port of Yoshi's Island would be great too - it would probably have to be simplified a little (graphically) to run smoothly on the GBA, but it would be great fun, especially for the N64 gamer who never had a copy.
Super Mario RPG would sell like hot cakes, however well they sell, seeing as a PAL release never happened! I'd be happy to see this game appear on my GBA.
But a truly unique Super Mario game to be created would get my vote.

Ninty announced months ago that Mario Advance 4 would be this, and Mario Advance 5 would be Paper Mario (yes, an N-64 game...), or Vice Versa, I just can't remember which...

Nintendo: the super innovative company who find as many ways as possible of releasing the same thing packaged slightly differently.

I'd love it to be Super Mario Bros 3 - still remains one of the best in the series of Mario games.
Anything but Mario Is Missing - that game sucked, no amount of abuse is good enough for how much it sucked.
