Dude, check it out... they're re-making the originalSuper Mario Bros game.
They're sticking with the original story of an evil fire-breathing monster kidnapping the princes and taking over the Mushroom Kingdom but this time they want to make the story a larger part of the game then it previously was.
"The original story behind Super Mario Bros. was dark and twisted; but due to the technical limitations of the graphics at the time, the Mario universe was created with bright happy colors instead of the evil dark tones that would be used today"
In other words... to make the game better then it was, they're going to redraw all of the sprites and backgrounds to give you a more dire, serious feel. True, none of the gameplay has changed... but darker graphics obviously mean better game so this is going to be the shit! Maybe Blizzard should pay attention and learn something huh?
Screen shot below... you just see how much more fun it's going to be.
