#5 Mini games

• There are mini games you can play that you find by hunting down rabbits.
• My favorite of the six I played was toy box shuffle which was to find yoshi and those gambling games where you put a ball under cups and the guy moves them around and you try to find the one with the ball in it.

#4 Exclusive character usage:

• You have to get all four characters (allegedly) to beat the game. Have to get 80 stars.
• Each character has their own level to find them and unlock them.
• Original levels were recreated to fit the character.
  • Wario uses Flower Power to turn into metal and can walk in the water.

#3 More playable characters:

• You start out as Yoshi and can get Mario, Luigi and Wario
• Each have their own special abilities
• Yoshi can use his tongue and has a long jump
• Luigi can jump really high
• Mario can kick
• Wario is slow but can break specialized bricks throughout the game.

#2 More text:

• You actually are given hints on how to do things.
• In the original it generally did not tell you what to do and was more obscure.

#1 Graphical Overhaul:

• The game was remade so characters can look surprisingly different.
• Bowser looks very different. He looks more like how we view him today while his head is much more bulbous in the original.
• The mustaches are better
