CRT televisions have better picture quality.

Speaking as someone who owns both a 32 inch CRT HDTV and a 32 inch LCD HDTV, let me assure you that this is not at all true.

EXCEPTION!

CRT televisions, I've found, display older games better. I'm talking NES/SNES/N64/Dreamcast/PSOne games because they were designed with that sort of TV in mind. Playing a lot of N64 games on my big flatscreen looks bad. So I took my friend's old CRT and hooked my old systems up to it and I'm very happy with the results.

There are a lot of variables to consider, such as brand, quality, personal preference, etc. At the least, I've seen enough LCD and plasma televisions to know that they are too bright for my liking.

I think it's more because most newer televisions don't display standard definition content very well, because they have to covert it to the television's native resolution. This is especially noticeable with old gaming systems, because their resolution is even lower than what's considered standard definition. HD CRTs don't have a native resolution, so they can display any signal in its natural state.

I finally decided to pick this up. I was looking at the box and noticed that they didn't even bother to get the aspect ratio correct on the sprite art pasted inside the front cover. Yes, it's a nit-picky detail, but especially for something that they're supposed to be celebrating, like the rest of the package, it just reeks of cheap cash-in.

I want to know why most of the "Super Mario Bros. "and  "Super Mario 3's music and layout was changed. Also, the main screen of the original "Super Mario Bros." game had no music, whereas now the main screen has music(I like it when the main screen had no music).

Yeah! Who does Nintendo think they are? George Lucas?
