The thing I remember most about this game was the ad you posted. I thought it was such a cool little mini strip they did. I loved the Atari ads in the comics back then. I recall there was one for D&D and for Star Wars, both Atari games. In fact, I kind of loved most of the ads in the comics back then because I didn't have a lot growing up so those ads were kind of a window of imagination for me. I probably made them out to be a lot more than they were but kids tend to do that sometimes.
Outside of that, I played the game a lot in the Super Mario Bros. 3 battles when you played two player mode. Outside of that, I didn't really get to play Mario Bros. until I was a little bit older. It might have been on one of those 53 in 1 Japanese bootleg games I bought from a friend in Junior High. By then, even the SNES was old and on the way out and the Sony PlayStation was the new kid in town but I was still playing my NES before it was hip to play an old console, mostly out of necessity. LOL. Thanks for the brief trip back to memory lane.
