What's the difference between game A and B in Mario Bros.? Mr.Bomberman and I are playing and we wanna know.

The only key differences between the A-Game and B-Game is the time that things happen. The B-Game is the more difficult one because the fireballs come quicker and the enemies recover faster. There are no point differences between the two games.

A Game:

1. When enemy gets knocked on its back, it takes 20 seconds for it to change color and get back up
2. Fireballs start to appear 80 seconds after the level begins

B Game:

1. When enemy gets knocked on its back, it takes 15 seconds for it to change color and get back up
2. Fireballs start to appear 60 seconds after the level begins

I wasn't sure of the specifics, but I knew B was more difficult as it always is with that first set of NES Nintendo-made games.

Well now. I guess "B" is for "Bad ass". I always played Donkey Kong 3 on "B".

In other news, the slippery-ass controls of that game coupled with 90 milliseconds of lag do not make for fun times.

Ugh. I don't get why it always seems like Mario is either walking on ice or stepped in slippery dog shit in that game.
