Haha, pretty cool.

Man, 30 years. It seems like a lot of time and also like no time at all.

30 years.  Crazy.  I remember my brother Tony showing me this NES he had just gotten.  SMB was like crack.  It pulled me back into gaming a few years after I had pretty much left it behind.

What's incredible is that the game is still amazingly fun to play.  Some other classics don't age quite as well.  Goldeneye 007 is a good example.  It's blurry graphics and dated FPS design make it seem a lot less fun than it used to be.

On the whole, pixels age much better than polygons.

That's true. But even some classic games don't hold up quite as well as Mario does. You can still play it and I think the mechanics are so simple that it's just as fun now as it ever was. It hasn't changed really.
