'''''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.''''' is an officially licensed retool of ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', produced in 1986 for the [[Family Computer Disk System]]. As such, there is no 2 Player Game but rather the option to play as [[Luigi]] with his unique physics. This version is based on the Japanese radio program ''{{wp|All Night Nippon}}'', and it was sold through a lottery system on the show itself to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the program in the upcoming year. The game was published by {{wp|Nippon Broadcasting System}}, a subsidiary of {{wp|Fuji TV}} who would go on to publish ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'', which was localized in the West as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''.
'''''All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros.''''' (オールナイトニッポン スーパーマリオブラザーズ) is an officially licensed retool of ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', released in 1986 for the [[Family Computer Disk System]]. This version is based on the Japanese radio program [[wikipedia:All Night Nippon|''All Night Nippon'']], and it was given out as a raffle prize on the show itself. The game was published by [[wikipedia:Fuji Television|Fuji Television]]. Essentially, this game is an exact replica of the original, except with the sprites of the [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s and various [[List of enemies|enemies]] replaced with Japanese celebrities for a humorous effect.  


Only 3,040 copies were released. Due to high demand and limited supply, listeners were told from December 15 to December 19, 1986 to send a postcard which would be entered into a lottery for 2,000 of the copies. The card had to be postmarked by December 20, 1986 to qualify. Winners received a reply postcard to alert them to send a money order for their copy. 1,000 copies were sold directly at Nippon Broadcasting System's music center window on December 20, which lead to a long queue of prospective buyers in front of the building. In addition, ''Famicom Tsūshin'' (''Famitsu'') and ''Family Computer Magazine'' (''Famimaga'') each gave out 20 free copies to their readers in a lottery. The deadline for ''Famitsu'' was December 25, 1986 while ''Famimaga'''s was January 15, 1987. ''Famitsu'' received over 30,000 submissions.<ref>[https://bigafrodogg.hatenablog.com/entry/2022/03/29/190531 New Discovery of ''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.'' 3/29/2022].

==Differences==
 
*Some levels have been replaced by different ones. World 5-3 has been replaced by 4-3 from ''The Lost Levels'', with some small edits, 5-4 has been replaced by 2-4 from ''The Lost Levels'', 6-4 by 4-4 from ''The Lost Levels'', 7-2 and 7-3 were replaced by 6-2 and 6-3 from ''The Lost Levels'' respectively. World 8-4 was changed into 8-4 from ''The Lost Levels''. Additionally, after beating the game 8 times (doesn't matter if with warp zones or not), the player gains access to edited versions of Worlds A, B, C and D from ''The Lost Levels''. World A-3 had its cloud platforms replaced with the mushroom platforms from World 4. This was because the clouds occupied the same graphic space as the mushrooms in ''The Lost Levels''. World B-1 has been replaced by 5-1 from ''The Lost Levels'' (without the [[Warp Zone]]), B-3 with 3-3 from the same game. This means World B's setting has been changed into a snow world. World C-3 and C-4 were replaced by 7-3 and 7-4 from ''The Lost Levels''. World D-1 was replaced by a modified version of 8-1 from ''The Lost Levels''. This level has two different [[Goal Pole]]s, both leading to D-2. Those worlds also feature Red variants of Tamori Piranha Plants, but only if they are upside down. Apart from that, all worlds feature minor edits, such as the appearance of more enemies in 4-1.
The game is a remix with most of the level designs adapted from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' along with the likenesses of the show's hosts as sprite swaps. It takes place in the ビバ{{ruby|王国|おうこく}}<ref name=monogatari/> (''Biba Ōkoku'', Viva Kingdom), which is named after "Viva Young", the slogan and subtitle of the ''All Night Nippon'' radio program. It is also the name of that show's newsletter. Likewise, the “{{ruby|幻|まぼろし}}の{{ruby|商売繁盛|しょうばいはんじょう}}”のコーナー<ref>''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.'' instruction booklet, page 6.</ref> (''"Maboroshi no Shōbai Hanjō" no kōnā'', "Illusionary Business Prosperity" corner) that Bowser lures Sunplaza Nakano in with is the name of a recurring segment in his show. He would perform a {{wp|guerilla gig}} at a small business, usually a restaurant, and overwhelm it with customers. Other games with a similar concept of Mario meeting Japanese celebrities were found on the [[Satellaview]], with spiritual successors such as ''[[BS Super Mario USA]]'', ''[[BS Super Mario Collection]]'', and a version of ''[[Wario's Woods (Super Nintendo Entertainment System)|Wario's Woods]]''. ''[[Kaettekita Mario Bros.]]'' was another similar project.
*[[Goomba]]s and [[Piranha Plant]]s were changed to big-headed caricatures of DJs [[wikipedia:Sunplaza Nakano-kun|Sunplaza Nakano]] and [[wikipedia:Tamori|Tamori]], respectively.
==Story==
*Microphones replaced the mushrooms found in the background.
'''Translated from the instruction booklet'''<ref name=monogatari>[https://www.gamingalexandria.com/highquality/fds/All%20Night%20Nippon%20Super%20Mario%20Brothers/All%20Night%20Nippon%20Super%20Mario%20Brothers.pdf ''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.'' instruction booklet], pages 6 and 7.</ref>
*The Fujisankei (the company that runs ''All Night Nippon'') logo is found on the flag that is raised when [[Mario]] enters a [[fortress]].
 
*The Fujisankei logo is also found as the [[axe]] that sits behind [[Bowser]].
''One day, the peaceful {{wp|All Night Nippon}} dream land Viva Kingdom where [[Toad (species)|Mushroom]]s live was invaded by the tribe of the huge turtle [[Bowser|Koopa]], who possesses powerful magic. Said magical power was used to transform all the quiet Mushroom People into rocks, [[Brick Block|brick]]s and mikes among other forms. All Night Nippon personalities {{wp|Miyuki Nakajima}}, the Tunnels, {{wp|Kyōko Koizumi}}, {{wp|Takeshi Kitano|Beat Takeshi}}, and the AB Brothers were also captured. What became of Sunplaza Nakano? Pitiable Sunplaza was fooled by Koopa's letter to his “Illusionary Business Prosperity” corner into visiting him. And he was changed into [[Koopa (species)|Koopa Tribe]] minion “OkaP”.
*The [[Toad (species)|Mushroom Retainer]]s were changed to Japanese celebrities, while [[Princess Peach]] gets a [[wikipedia:geisha|geisha]] outfit.
 
*As with ''[[VS. Super Mario Bros.]]'', the locations of [[? Block]]s and [[Brick Block]]s were changed around, though the changes are different from ''Vs''.
''The only one who can undo this magic on the Mushrooms and revive All Night Nippon is the Viva Kingdom's own [[Princess Peach]]. She is presently in the hands of King Koopa.
*The [[Super Star|Starman]] was changed into a Hiranya, a symbol popularized by a Japanese radio show called ''Young Paradise''. The Hiranya also resembles the Star of David, a symbol of Judaism.
 
*Most of the graphical changes from ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|The Lost Levels]]'' were carried over, although bricks and mountains are drawn like the first game instead. Bricks are not shaded, and mountains have smooth slopes instead of jagged slopes.
''[[Mario]] has stood up to help the personalities trapped in each world, defeat the Koopa Tribe, rescue Princess Peach, and rebuild the peaceful All Night Nippon dream land Viva Kingdom.
*Mario and [[Luigi]], when stopping after running, make the same skidding noise as in ''The Lost Levels'' and later, in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
 
*World 1 was changed to night time.
''The Mario in the TV is an avid All Night Nippon listener like you. Only you can bring this adventure quest (expedition) to a conclusion.
*[[Wind|Windstorm]]s were removed, affecting the difficulty of the courses they were found in (most noticeably World B-1).
*World 4-4 and World 7-4 have their maze solutions revised.
*World 8-4 is the only course unmodified from the Japanese ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', unlike the original ''Super Mario Bros.''


==Differences==
===Celebrities===
===Graphics===
[[File:ANN toads.PNG|frame|left]]
*[[World 1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1]] takes place at nighttime.
The celebrities that Mario rescues at the end of every world are as follows:
*Most of the graphics are from ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|The Lost Levels]]'', although bricks and mountains are drawn like those in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' Bricks are not shaded, and mountains have smooth slopes instead of jagged slopes. Cloud platforms were replaced with the [[Mushroom Platform|Super Mushroom platforms]] but now with segmented stalks (which also replace the original Super Mushroom platform designs from the original ''Super Mario Bros.''). Additionally, mikes replace the mushrooms found in the background.
*World 1: [[wikipedia:Miyuki Nakajima|Miyuki Nakajima]]
*[[Goomba|Little Goomba]]s and [[Piranha Plant]]s were changed to big-headed caricatures of DJ Sunplaza Nakano, the Friday night host, and are respectively called オカピー<ref>''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.'' instruction booklet, page 12.</ref> (''Okapī'', "OkaP") and パックンオカピー<ref>''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.'' instruction booklet, page 13.</ref> (''Pakkun Okapī'', "Piranha OkaP"). This is a reference to Sunplaza Nakano's theme song in ''All Night Nippon''.
*World 2: [[wikipedia:Takaaki Ishibashi|Takaaki Ishibashi]]
*The [[Super Star|Starman]] was changed into a Hiranya (ヒランヤ<ref>''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.'' instruction booklet, page 10.</ref>), a symbol popularized by ''Yūji Miyake's Young Paradise'', the radio program that preceded ''All Night Nippon'' on the same station. A segment on that show claimed the Hiranya has mysterious powers and is buried somewhere in Tokyo, daring the listeners to hunt for it to claim a prize. The Hiranya also resembles the {{wp|Star of David}}, a symbol of {{wp|Judaism}}.
*World 3: Noritake Kinashi
*The {{wp|Nippon Broadcasting System|Nippon Broadcasting System, Inc.}} (the radio station that runs ''All Night Nippon'') logo is found on the [[Goal Pole|flag]] that is raised when [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] enter a [[fortress]]. This logo is also found as the [[axe]].
*World 4: [[wikipedia:Kyōko Koizumi|Kyōko Koizumi]]
*The [[Toad (species)|mushroom retainer]]s were changed to show's hosts, while [[Princess Peach]] is dressed as a traditional Japanese princess. This marks the first time Princess Peach has ever done her hair up, predating ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' by 16 years, and is also the first media to depict her in a different outfit from her usual attire.
*World 5: [[wikipedia:Takeshi Kitano|Takeshi Kitano]]
[[File:ANN toads.png|frame|left]]
*World 6: Daisuke Matsuno
Their identities are as follows:<ref name=monogatari/>
*World 7: Hideyuki Nakayama

===Level order===
Most of the levels of the first eight [[world]]s are from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', but some are from ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|The Lost Levels]]'' as shown here:
{|class="wikitable"
|-
!''All Night Nippon'' levels!!Corresponding ''The Lost Levels''!!Notes
|-
|5-3||[[World 4-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|4-3]]||Originally 6-3 of ''[[VS. Super Mario Bros.]]''
|-
|5-4||[[World 2-4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|2-4]]||
|-
|6-4||[[World 4-4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|4-4]]||
|-
|7-2||[[World 6-2 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|6-2]]||Originally 7-2 of ''VS. Super Mario Bros.''
|-
|7-3||[[World 6-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|6-3]]||Originally 7-3 of ''VS. Super Mario Bros.''
|-
|8-4||[[World 8-4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|8-4]]||This is the only level ported from ''The Lost Levels'' that neither is played out of order nor has its design completely altered for this game.
|}
Much like ''[[VS. Super Mario Bros.]]'', with the sole exception of World 1-3/World 5-3 and World 8-4 (which, though reused from ''The Lost Levels'', is virtually left unchanged in terms of level order and design), all levels that are repeated, but in a much harder form later on, are replaced with levels from ''The Lost Levels'', with the original level being moved earlier in the game to make room for that new level.
The [[Hammer Bro]]thers in [[World 7-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|7-1]] and [[World 8-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|8-3]] pursue [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] like they do in those worlds in ''The Lost Levels''.
Beating 8-4 will add a star to the title screen (up to twenty) and reveal [[Hard Mode]] in which all Okapī are replaced with [[Buzzy Beetle]]s and all enemies move faster but players must start from [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|1-1]] as there is no world select option. Hard Mode is not permanent as resetting returns the game to its normal difficulty. Like ''The Lost Levels'', after beating 8-4 eight times (does not matter if with [[Warp Zone]]s or not), the player gains access to edited versions of [[World A|Worlds A]], [[World B|B]], [[World C|C]], and [[World D|D]]. Some of the levels are replaced with those from the first eight worlds of that game as seen here:
{|class="wikitable"
|-
!''All Night Nippon'' levels!!Corresponding ''The Lost Levels''!!Notes
|-
|B-1||[[World 5-1 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|5-1]]||Without the Warp Zone and the [[wind]]
|-
|B-3||[[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|3-3]]||
|-
|C-3||[[World 7-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|7-3]]||No wind
|-
|C-4||[[World 7-4 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|7-4]]||
|-
|D-1||[[World 8-1 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|8-1]]||This level had a major redesign with the Warp Zone and wind removed and parts of [[World D-2|D-2]] duplicated. There are two different [[Goal Pole|flagpole]]s, both leading to D-2.
|}
Like ''[[VS. Super Mario Bros.]]'', every level features edits, such as the appearance of more enemies in [[World 4-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|4-1]], different maze solutions in [[World 4-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|4-4]] and [[World 7-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|7-4]], and changed locations of [[? Block|?]]s and [[Brick Block|brick]]s. However, these changes are not the same as those found in ''VS.'' In addition, all Pakkun Okapī on the ground are green and all hanging ones, introduced in World A, are red but both behave like the red Piranha Plants in ''The Lost Levels''. Two features from ''The Lost Levels'' have been removed. [[Poison Mushroom]]s have been replaced with regular power-ups. The removal of [[wind]] affects the difficulty of the courses they were found in. [[Super Spring]]s, however, have been kept. [[World 9 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 9]] does not exist if the player clears the game without using a Warp Zone. Attempting the [[Minus World]] glitch will have an effect similar to ''The Lost Levels'', either sending the player to the pipe near the flagpole or back to 1-1. Due to World 8-4 in this game being reused from ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'', along with [[World D-4]] returning from that game, both [[Bowser's Brother]] and the [[fake Bowser|fake]] Bowser's Brother from the latter level return as well.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Luigi is shown to look exactly like Mario but with a cyan hat and overalls and a green shirt on the cover of this game. The cover is a modification of {{file link|Mario no Daibouken single cover.jpg|artwork}} for ''[[Mario no Daibōken]]'', a 1986 single by {{wp|Pony Canyon}}, a subsidiary of {{wp|Fujisankei Communications Group}} like Fuji TV.<ref>[https://vgmdb.net/album/7844 Mario's Big Adventure/GO GO Mario!!]. ''VGMdb''. Retrieved January 23, 2021.</ref> Pony Canyon also released a ''Super Mario Bros.'' promotional video under the same title that featured the same cover.<ref>NES Tunes (January 8, 2021). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_jU9fe6lYI Nintendo VHS: Super Mario Bros.Promotion Tape: Mario's Adventure | All Night Nippon Famicom Warriors]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved January 23, 2021.</ref> That video ends with "[[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)#Mario no Daibōken|GO GO Mario!!]]", the side B song from that single which was the winner of ''All Night Nippon'''s nation-wide contest for lyrics to the Ground Theme. It was from this partnership that the idea for the game was born.
*Goro Itoi is unlisted in the game's instruction manual, likely to make his appearance in the game a surprise tribute to him, as he was one of the original DJs of ''All Night Nippon''.
*Pakkun Okapī and Princess Peach are represented by a "?" in the manual.
*Other games with a similar concept of Mario meeting Japanese celebrities were found on the [[Satellaview]], with spiritual successors such as ''[[BS Super Mario USA]]'', ''[[BS Super Mario Collection]]'', and a version of ''[[Wario's Woods]]''. ''[[Kaettekita Mario Bros.]]'' was another similar project.
 
*[[Luigi]] is shown to look exactly like [[Mario]] with a blue hat and overalls and a green shirt on the cover of this game.
