'''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 [[reissue]]s 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).

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 and sell them at a lower price point, 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 which involve the Super Mario franchise, unlike in Europe. North American re-releases 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. There does not appear to be a Nintendo Classics equivalent that was released in Japan, but it is likely that the Nintendo Classics logo was reused for the Japanese box art for Super Mario All-Stars, given how closely the series was released compared to the Japanese release.
Mario Bros.[edit]
In 1993, Mario Bros. had been rereleased for the Nintendo Entertainment System in Europe with the Classic Series label, and, notably, featured several significant changes compared to the version that initially released in Japan for the Family Computer in September 1983, and in North America and Europe in 1986 as part of the Arcade Classics Series. Most of these changes were previously featured in Mario Bros. Returns. The changes in both Mario Bros. Returns and the Classic Series re-release made this version much closer to the arcade original compared to the previous Nintendo Entertainment System version. It is the only game within the label to have significant revisions.
Differences[edit]
- The cutscenes from the arcade version have been reimplemented.
- Mario can now turn a different direction while in midair.
- Enemy sprites look more similar to the arcade version.
- The Icicle enemies have been reimplemented.
- The bonus stage with the invisible floor has been reimplemented.
