In the Super Mario All-Stars version of Super Mario Bros. 1 the player starts out with five lives instead of three. โฌ๏ธ
Due to the improved color palette of the SNES, color schemes are now more consistent depending on the level environment, as opposed to having their own unique color scheme due to the NES having a limited color palette. ๐จ

Super Mario All-Stars was the first time western players could experience the original Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2, called Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels in the compilation. ๐
The game was initially released in 1986 for the Japan-only Family Computer Disk System as a direct sequel to Super Mario Bros. ๐ฏ๐ต
Nintendo of America originally deemed this game too difficult to sell well in western countries. ๐ข

To prevent the early series from being associated with frustration, Nintendo adapted Yume Kลjล: Doki Doki Panic and released it as Super Mario Bros. 2 in the West, instead of the original Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2. ๐ฏ๐ต
In the Super Mario All-Stars version the player now has the option to select another character after losing a life. Also some levels that originally take place during the day now take place at night and vice-versa.

In the Super Mario All-Stars version of Super Mario Bros 3. Luigi is no longer a palette swap of Mario's sprites, as he is now taller and thinner than Mario.
All levels are given remastered backgrounds with parallax scrolling and extra details such as multiple blocks, clouds, beetroots and pillars. โ๏ธ
Like in the NES version the player starts with five lives, but the last life before a Game Over is one. In the NES version it is zero. ๐ชฆ
