The game was made in celebration of the ''Super Mario Bros.'' 25th Anniversary and includes an extra package, with a ''[[Super Mario History 1985-2010]]'' booklet, which tells about [[Mario]]'s history and the people who made a big effort making the ''Super Mario'' games, and a CD with many songs across the main series from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', ''[[Super Mario World]]'', ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The extra things were available for only a limited time. The soundtrack also has noises such as getting a [[coin]] or completing a [[level]]. On the Wii's Nintendo Channel as well as on the websites for the anniversary, there is a video celebrating the 25th Anniversary in all regions. The video uses game footage from the Japanese versions, but the differences to the English releases are minimal.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzkkgK_zQHI YouTube - Super Mario Bros. 25th Anniversary (History 1985-2010) HQ]</ref> ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' is featured only in the Japanese version of the video. | The game was made in celebration of the ''Super Mario Bros.'' 25th Anniversary and includes an extra package, with a ''[[Super Mario History 1985-2010]]'' booklet, which tells about [[Mario]]'s history and the people who made a big effort making the ''Super Mario'' games, and a CD with many songs across the main series from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', ''[[Super Mario World]]'', ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros.

The [[Wii]] port of ''Super Mario All-Stars'' received mixed reviews.

Club}} gave the game an "F," saying that the bonus material included with the game was "disappointing." | The [[Wii]] port of ''Super Mario All-Stars'' received mixed reviews.

|align="left"| | |align="left"|''"Despite only being 951kb in size, the four games nestled together in Super Mario All-Stars represent good value for money. The combined price of downloading each title separately from the Virtual Console (in their original NES versions, mind) is only marginally lower than the £24.99 asking price for this box. Should Nintendo be criticised for failing to update the code for 2010? Some might say the effort would have outweighed the benefit. These games are supremely playable in their 16-bit form, and while 60hz, non-bordered support would have been welcome, their appeal is undiminished by time and technology's progress. But perhaps the greatest value of this pack is the packaging itself. Owning a physical copy of Super Mario All-Stars on Wii allows these games to sit proudly on your shelf, a statement to everyone who enters your home and sees it. Here is a game that, in some tiny way, made me the person I am today. Celebrate that with me. Is a ROM cheaper? Absolutely. Does it offer the same amount of value? Not even close.''" | ||
