> Also, the video has a lot of info about how levels are constructed in Mario in general, which I found very informative.

If you'd like a lot more on this kind of topic, check out the book "I Am Error" by Nathan Altice (published by MIT Press; don't buy from Amazon). It goes into a bunch of detail about how the NES hardware worked and how specific games used it.
