It's all that stuff for me, plus rowing a canoe to the islands in World 3 to find more bonus mushroom houses, or challenging my friend to a bonus game as we fight to be the one to tackle the next stage, or watching my mom hop wildly around level 1-5 and somehow find an invisible block I didn't know about that launches her to one of the cloud-based bonus levels. Or jumping just right at the end of a level so fireworks spell out 5 extra lives, or climbing a tower to the clouds in World 5, or using an invincibility star in world 7 to run across a bed of black piranha plants, or sinking down a quicksand waterfall to find a hidden bonus room. And between us, we've left plenty of other great experiences unmentioned, because Super Mario Bros. 3 is full of them. There's a reason it consistently rates as one of my top 3 favorite games of all time, and has for years.

"Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought." - John F. Kennedy on reality

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

Amen, thanks for reading!
