When developing ''Super Mario Bros.'', players were originally supposed to start as Super Mario. However, because of the way the camera was zoomed in during development, it made seeing around Mario difficult. After pulling the camera away, Mario appeared smaller, at which point [[Toshihiko Nakago]] suggested they make Mario smaller instead of pulling the camera away. The team then decided that Super Mario would shrink into Small Mario if he touches an enemy, but if Small Mario touches an enemy, he will be defeated instead. | When developing ''Super Mario Bros.'', players were originally supposed to start as Super Mario.
