The ''Super Mario Advance'' version of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' includes several new features such as the addition of the enemy Robirdo, a robotic Birdo, replacing Mouser as the boss of World 3; the addition of the ''[[Yoshi]] Challenge'', in which players may revisit stages to search for Yoshi Eggs; and a new point-scoring system, similar to that used in the aforementioned ''BS Super Mario USA Power Challenge''. Graphical and audio enhancements appear in the form of enlarged sprites, multiple hit combos, digital voice acting, and such minor stylistic and aesthetic changes as an altered default health-meter level, boss-order, backgrounds, the size of hearts, Princess Toadstool being renamed to the now-standard "Princess Peach", and the inclusion of a chime to announce Stars.<ref name="gb">{{cite web|last=Nix|first=Marc|date=June 14, 2001|title=Super Mario Bros. 2: Super Mario Advance β Game Boy Advance Review at IGN|url=http://gameboy.ign.com/articles/165/165853p1.html|access-date=February 26, 2010|website=IGN|archive-date=September 18, 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090918064330/http://gameboy.ign.com/articles/165/165853p1.html|url-status=live}}</ref> The game was released for the [[Wii U]] [[Virtual Console]] on July 16, 2014, in Japan and later in North America on November 6, 2014.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://nintendoeverything.com/super-mario-advance-wii-u-virtual-console-footage-japan/ |title=Super Mario Advance Wii U Virtual Console footage (Japan) |publisher=Nintendo Everything |date=July 15, 2014 |access-date=July 16, 2014 |archive-date=August 21, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170821043645/http://nintendoeverything.com/super-mario-advance-wii-u-virtual-console-footage-japan/ |url-status=live }}</ref> It was released for the [[Nintendo Switch]] as a part of the [[Nintendo Classics]] service on May 26, 2023.<ref name="rei">{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRyFVwRqUKI|title=Game Boy Advance β May 2023 Game Updates β Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack - YouTube|website=www.youtube.com|date=May 18, 2023 |language=en|access-date=June 4, 2023|archive-date=June 4, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230604060235/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRyFVwRqUKI|url-status=live}}</ref> ''Super Mario Advance'' received a "Gold" sales award from the [[Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association]] (ELSPA),<ref name=goldelspa>{{cite web |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090319031650/http://www.elspa.com/?i=3943 |url=http://www.elspa.com:80/?i=3943 |title=ELSPA Sales Awards: Gold |work=[[Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association]] |archive-date=March 19, 2009 |url-status=dead }}</ref> indicating sales of at least 200,000 copies in the United Kingdom.<ref name=gamasutrasales>{{cite web|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170918063107/https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/112220/ELSPA_Wii_Fit_Mario_Kart_Reach_Diamond_Status_In_UK.php |url=https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/112220/ELSPA_Wii_Fit_Mario_Kart_Reach_Diamond_Status_In_UK.php |title=ELSPA: ''Wii Fit'', ''Mario Kart'' Reach Diamond Status In UK | author=Caoili, Eric | date=November 26, 2008 |work=[[Gamasutra]] |archive-date=September 18, 2017 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
