According to Shigeru Miyamoto, ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' takes place in the sewers of New York,<ref>Porges, Seth (October 19, 2009). [https://web.archive.org/web/20091022053804/https://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/industry/4334387.html Exclusive Interview With Nintendo Gaming Mastermind Shigeru Miyamoto]. [http://www.popularmechanics.com/ Popular Mechanics]. Retrieved November 25, 2009. "''When we first created Donkey Kong, I kind of looked at him as your average, everyday foolish guy. The setting of that game was a construction site, so I kind of matched him with the setting of the game, and decided in that game that he was a carpenter. And then when we made the original Mario Bros. game, that was the first game that had pipes in it, and the enemies would come out of the pipes into this dark area and Mario would try to hit them and knock them out. Looking at the setting of that game, it had the feeling of an underground New York sewer system. And so with the pipes and the idea of it being an underground New York sewer system, I thought what kind of guy would be there working on the pipes? A plumber! So rather than saying Mario was a plumber, really it was a matter of what's his role in the game and what's the setting of the game and kind of occupation would put him in the setting to be doing what he's doing.''"</ref><ref>Snider, Mike (November 08, 2010).

"''As a kid, I was a big comic fan and I liked foreign comics as well. So I drew some characters that had more western type features with a little bigger noses and what not. Now with Mario, I think with Mario Bros. we had a setting of course that was underground, so I just decided Mario is a plumber. Let's put him in New York and he can be Italian. There was really no other deep thought other than that.''"</ref> although Atari manuals state it takes place in the [[Warp Pipe|water pipe]]s of [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]]'s [[Mario Bros.' House|house]].<ref>"''Mario the carpenter and his brother Luigi{{hover| |* [2600/5200]}} are hopping mad!
