Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt/World Class Track Meet
Reviewed by Jason Madsen
Back when the people at Nintendo were getting better at making
larger games you began to see games with 2 or more games on
them. The best one to get was the 3-In-1
Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt/World Class Track Meet. In order
to have this game you had to be a real serious gamer because 2
out of the 3 games required accessories. To play Duck Hunt you
had to have the Light Gun, To play Track Meet you had to have
the Power Pad. But if you were lucky enough to all ready have
these items then this was the game to have!
We'll start with Mario: Lets face it this game is the best there is,
the best there was, and the best there ever will be! This was the
first game to be developed for the NES and man was it cool! In it
you play Mario an Italian plumer who goes to rescue his girl friend
form King Copua (i know sounds lame but it isn't, trust me!) Since
most of you are familiar with the game (considering it was free
if you bought the NES system) I wont go into much detail. Next
you have Duck Hunt. This is the greatest Light Gun game you can
get! If you have a light gun and you have a NES your game collection
is not complete with out this game! Your a hunter who goes out to
hunt for (what else) Ducks with your Dog. The game play is fun and
long lasting, but be warned the closer you are to the TV the less
fun the game is. And last but not least World Class Track Meet. Now
this game dose require the Power Pad but trust me this game alone
is worth going out and buying one. You compete in several different
track and field games suck as: Hurtals, The Long Jump , and ext.
But this game isn't all that fun for a single person, for this game
its the more the maryier. I can still remember when I was 7
playing this game with my cousins for hours upon hours! In the
summer time we would start when our parents left for work and
stop around diner time, it was a blast!
Graphics 8 out of 10
The Graphics are pretty good for the NES System. In the Track and
Field game the pixels are a little big but you don't really notice it.
Duck Hunt the graphics are killer! Its cool when the Ducks go flying
across the screen and your just firing away! Mario, hey it was the
first NES game of course the Graphics are going to be a little
rough. But what it lacks in graphics it makes up for in game
play trust me!
Music and Sound 7 out of 10
Mario has the best music of all! Who can forget that catchy little
toon as you go across the levels! Duck Hunt doesn't have music but
if you play for a while that quacking can get real annoying! World
Class Track Meet has great sound the feet running and jumping
matches right up with yours on the power pad.
Game Challenge 9 out of 10
Hey you got 3 games here there's enough challenges to test your
skills as a gamer for a long time! Mario takes me about a day to
beat giving the effort and time I put in (this is because I know the
game by hart if you have never played this game it should take
you a bit longer) Duck Hunt, well I don't think this game ends! I don't
know one person who has beaten this game. I got to level 20 and lost
so I don't know? World Class Track Meet when first starting it can be
a challenge but stick in there it gets better!
Game Play-Fun 9 out of 10
3 games for what ever type of mood your in! You got Mario for
a nice long quest. You got Duck Hunt for a great Shooter Game,
and World Class Track Meet if its to cold to go out side and work
of some pounds. Its all up to you on this one!
Frustration
Not much to worry about here, Mario can get you mad real easy
if your not good at platform jumping. Duck Hunt can really make you
mad! I would constantly throw my gun controller swearing at those
ducks. (I'm horrible at shooters) World Class Track Meet, this all
depends on you. If your an over weight slop who hates to run you'll
really get mad at this one, but if you like Track and all around
competition you'll have a blast!
Replayability 6 out of 10
Mario dose become lame after you beat it a couple times, I should
know I've beaten it thousands of times but it is great the first
couple times through. Duck Hunt you will constantly replay, this is
because you wont beat it for a while. Like I said I don't Know one
person who has beaten this one. Hey I couldn't even tell you how
many levels there are. World Class Track Meet is a great replay
game, it's a blast when you throw a party and every one joins in,
hey it beats pin the tale on the donkey.
Game Value 10 out of 10
Considering this game is 9 cents on Funco Land (as of 1-4-2000)
this is a great game value. You get 3 games of 3 different types,
thats just hours upon hours of game play. Whether your a great
gamer or never held a controller in your life.
Overall 9 out of 10
Overall if you have the accessories and need some time to kill this
is the perfect game! You can get it for 9 cents, you get 3 games
and its loads and loads of fun! If you don't have these games
separately and really want them this is a great chance to get them
all for one killer price! I strongly recomend this game for all ages
and gamers alike!
