While superficially very similar to the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', the game features original new [[level]]s and has a screen-by-screen scrolling mechanism. The latter is implemented more smoothly in the X1 version, which features ''Zelda''-style scrolling, where the screen visually slides to the next lock point (with some overlap between screens), whereas the PC-8801 version simply turns black for a moment while loading the next screen.
