A fan-made PC port of Super Mario All-Stars is now available, allowing players to revisit Nintendo's Super Mario Bros. classic collection with several features the original release never offered. First released for the SNES in 1993, Super Mario All-Stars brought four early Super Mario Bros. games together with upgraded 16-bit visuals and sound and remains a fan favorite collection over 30 years later.
The original All-Stars compilation included updated versions of Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, Super Mario Bros. 2, and Super Mario Bros. 3 for the SNES. For many players at the time, it became one of the easiest ways to experience the early Mario games on a single cartridge, particularly The Lost Levels, which had not previously been released in North America. Nintendo later brought the collection to the Wii for the series' 25th anniversary, and it is currently part of the Super Nintendo library offered through Nintendo Switch Online. Meanwhile, PC players have largely relied on emulation to revisit this version of Mario's early adventures, but the recent spree of console recomps seems to be changing that too.
