'''[[wikipedia:Brooklyn|Brooklyn]]''' is a borough of the greater city of [[New York City|New York]] and is located in the [[United States of America]]. | |||
One of its first mentions in a game is in ''[[Mario's Time Machine]]'', in which upon being asked if he was from Italy (due to his accent) by an imperial ruler in China, [[Mario]] says that he is from Brooklyn, New York. Of course, granted the time period, the feudal lord didn't know what Brooklyn was. | |||
According to ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'' (both the original PC version and console instruction booklets) and the ''[[Super Mario 64]] [[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]]'', in addition to the DIC cartoon shows and [[Nintendo Comics System]], the Mario Brothers are from Brooklyn. | |||

In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', it is shown that [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] ended up in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] by getting sucked down a [[Warp Pipe]] connected to the drain of bathtub that they were unclogging. | |||

With Mario and Luigi's help, Salvador Drainado was able to reach the pipe, and offered Mario and Luigi to come along. Mario and Luigi almost go along with Salvador Drainado, but decide to stay behind in the end to save [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] and [[Toad]] from [[Bowser|Koopa Khan]] and the [[Koopa Troop|Koopa Pack]]. | ||

Although they manage to foil King Koopa and lead him back to the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario blows up the pipe with a [[Bob-omb]], if only so that King Koopa can't return to Brooklyn. By blowing up the pipe, Mario and Luigi are forced to stay in the Mushroom Kingdom. | ||

== | ==Trivia== | ||
*Additionally, the manual to ''[[Wikipedia:Sim City|Sim City]]'' says that the Mario Bros. live in Brooklyn, stating that it's odd that [[Bowser]] is looking for them in Tokyo rather than there. | |||
*Brooklyn is also home to the well-known [[Brooklyn Bridge]], which can be seen all the way from Mario Brothers Plumbing. The bridge itself was also seen in several cartoon episodes and was mentioned a few times in the live-action segments of ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!''. | |||
*Since Flatbush is the only neighborhood of Brooklyn prominently featured, it can be assumed that the Mario Bros. grew up there. | |||
