'''''VB Mario Land''''' is a canceled ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' game that was originally going to be released on the [[Virtual Boy]].


The game was to be a two-dimensional side-scrolling game that would also use three-dimensional perspectives, such as moving between the background and foreground of the level. It would star [[Mario]] as the main character, using classic ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''-style elements such as [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Goomba]]s, [[Jumping Piranha Plant]]s, and [[? Block]]s. Although the story was not revealed, a large [[Wario]]-like figure that functioned similarly to a [[Thwomp]] was seen in the playable demo. In certain areas, an overhead view was displayed, much like in the game series [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'']]. The first level ends at the [[Goal Pole|flagpole]], and Mario can be seen entering a [[castle]].
''VB Mario Land'' was to be a two-dimensional game that would also have three-dimensional elements in it and would star [[Mario]] as its main character; though not much about ''VB Mario Land's'' story was revealed, it did have Mario battling [[Wario]].


A three-dimensional version of ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' was mentioned to be implemented into ''VB Mario Land'' as a minigame, but it was released separately as ''[[Mario Clash]]''.<ref name=UKNM/>
''VB Mario Land'' would make use of all the Virtual Boy's capabilities, with Mario being able to enter the background of various levels; additionally, dungeons similar to the ones seen in [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda series'']] of games were also prevalent in ''VB Mario Land''.


==Gallery==
Also in ''VB Mario Land'', a three-dimensional version of ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' was mentioned as being implemented in ''VB Mario Land'', though aside from its presence in the game, no more details about this ''Mario Bros.'' [[minigame]] were mentioned.
