What Would Super Mario Bros. Look Like on the Atari?
// February 21st, 2008 // Funny Stuff, Gaming
Nice video of what Super Mario Brothers would have looked like on the Atari 2600. It definitely looses a lot of its classic video game visual appeal.
Great rendering on what it would have looked like, though I question the sound. Atari’s crappy graphics were never as crappy as its sound effects and God forbid – music. I honestly don’t think it’d do anywhere near the same on the “advanced” sound of SMB from the NES. Also, I don’t think Atari every could render text that small – both the text at the top for the score, coins, etc., but also the little score numbers that appeared when smashing blocks, etc.
