Nintendo Classics, also known as Classic Series (referred to as Classic Serie in Germany and Série Classic in France), is a mostly European marketing label that consisted of many reissues of Nintendo Entertainment System, Game Boy and Super Nintendo Entertainment System games (the latter of which being labeled as Super Classic Serie in Germany and Série Super Classic in France). This was marketed to show the most popular games for said system, similar to how the Nintendo Selects series was later implemented.

The Classic Series label existed in North America as well, but only four Nintendo Entertainment System titles were released there with this brand, none of them being related to the Super Mario or Donkey Kong franchises, unlike in Europe. North American rereleases on the Game Boy and Super Nintendo Entertainment System were instead labeled Player's Choice, which was later used in Europe as well from the Nintendo 64 onwards. The Nintendo Classics never released in Japan, however, the logo was later used in the Japanese box art for Super Mario All-Stars.

Mario Bros.

The Classic Series version of Mario Bros. was released in Europe in 1993. It featured several changes made in Kaettekita Mario Bros., a Japanese rerelease for the Family Computer Disk System, making it much closer to the arcade original than the Arcade Classics Series version. It is also the only game within the label to have significant revisions.

Differences

  • The cutscenes from the arcade version have been reimplemented.
  • Mario can now turn a different direction while in midair.
  • The Shellcreeper's sprites look more similar to the arcade version.
  • The Icicle enemies have been reimplemented.
  • The bonus stage with the invisible floor has been reimplemented.
