Super Mario Bros. 3 is Coming to the Nintendo Virtual Console on April 17th

Super Mario Bros. 3 is the king of 8 bit games.
Get if your Nintendo 3DS and Wii U this April 17!

Hey there.  SUPER MARIO BROS. 3!!!  Possibly the best Mario Game ever to hit home consoles will finally have a chance to show its stuff to the younger generation!  This April 17th, the game will be available on the Wii U and 3DS Virtual Consoles.  Don't tell me that you are not excited!  The Nintendo eShop already has a great line up of classic Nintendo games but it is now filling in that huge hole that was left there by the absence of Super Mario Bros. 3.  So how much will this monumental game cost you?  How about $5.  Yup, you can pick it up for $4.99!
