Oct. 28, 2010

Today, Nintendo of America revealed plans to give U.S. consumers a super-special way to celebrate the  25th anniversary of the  Super Mario Bros.™ game series. Starting Dec. 12, the Super Mario All-Stars™ Limited Edition will be available for purchase while supplies last. This collectible package features four classic Mario™ games playable on the Wii™ system, a soundtrack CD and an illustrated commemorative booklet. Sure to be a sought-after item among holiday gift-seekers,  Super Mario All-Stars will be offered at a suggested retail price of $29.99.

The games included in the  Super Mario All-Stars collection are  Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, Super Mario Bros. 2 and  Super Mario Bros. 3. Each game features the enhanced graphics and updated sound from the Super NES™  Super Mario All-Stars collection, and all four can be played on the Wii system using one of several controllers: the Wii Remote™ controller, Classic Controller™, Classic Controller Pro™ or the Nintendo GameCube™ controller.

Also included is a  Super Mario History soundtrack CD, a compilation of memorable music from the Mario franchise. Containing classic theme songs and fun sound effects from the original Super Mario Bros. game all the way up to this year's acclaimed  Super Mario Galaxy™ 2 game, this special disc also marks the first official release of the "Super Mario Bros. Ground Theme," widely recognized as one of the most famous pieces of video game music in history.

Rounding out the  Super Mario All-Stars collection is a 32-page  Super Mario History booklet featuring interviews, behind-the-scenes details and rare concept art. Fans from every generation can enjoy firsthand insights into the beginnings of Mario, illustrated with candid photos and never-before-seen design sketches.
