Mario Clash is a fantastic update to the arcade Mario Bros. game.
In this, you must make your way up Clash Tower, one floor at a time. To do so, you have to stomp on Koopas and steal their shells to smack other monsters in the face. IN 3-D!!!
In reality, the use of 3-D spaces in this game is fantastic - you have essentially a foreground and a background. Pipes can stretch between them. In the center, Mario is lowered if he is chomped by an enemy.
One of my favorite games on the Virtual Boy, and I still haven't beaten it!
