7 Most Painfully Confusing Video Game Titles

7. Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3

The Super Mario Advance games are ports of classic Mario games for the Game Boy Advance. Up until the release of “Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3” they managed to avoid putting two separate numbers in any of the Super Mario Advance games titles.

The only other game that would have been a problem was Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island when that was ported but the Advance version of that is simply called “Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3” instead of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3.

The thing is, there's nothing you can shorten Super Mario Bros. 3 to, so they ended up giving up and just calling it Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3.

They could have easily gone with something like Super Mario Advance: Super Mario Bros. 3 or even better as to avoid the repeated use of the words "Super Mario", Super Mario Bros. 3 Advance. Nope, instead, they went with a name that featured two numbers and the words "Super Mario" repeated twice.
