:No. This is by far the most common use of the phrase "Super Mario Bros.", while the meanings of things like [[Yoshi's Island]] all are used commonly enough. The movie can be linked to with {{tem|about}} or something similar, and Mario Bros. (talking about the game?) has a quite different name. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 16:52, 8 August 2007 (EDT)

:He used a Game Genie code. Therefore, obviously it shouldn't be included in the article. Stuff without Game Genie, such as the infamous World-1 glitch or stuff, should be added. Also, if the guy corrupted it, it makes it his own video, which is not nnintendo related. Other comments? {{User:Super-Yoshi/sig}}

== Incorrect trivia? ==
 
"The Mario sprite on the cover is the same sprite on the Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. NES games."
 
But the SMB cover sprite is the Fire Mario sprite, whereas Fire Mario didn't exist in DK and Mario Bros. (Also, didn't DK and Mario Bros. have Mario with his soon to be traditional blue overalls and red shirt, while SMB had him in a different outfit?)
{{unsigned|Ekolis}}
 
It just means that Mario's picture is the same shape as in the DK and MB box arts.

== mention music in 3D world ==
 
In the section of this article labeled '''References in later games''', most uses of the super mario overworld theme music in later games are listed, but its use in [[Super Mario 3D World]] is omitted. A version of the theme is used as the music for some levels such as level Star-1 [[Rainbow Run (level)|Rainbow Run]]. Please add it to the list entry for 3D World in that section.
 
== Glitch on hard mode? ==
On my [[3DS]] I've got to "hard mode", and a lot of times I reset it to start over. But when I do so, it sometimes takes me to 2-1, 3-1, or 4-1. Once it went back to the normal mode, and when I went to my save point and back, it was hard mode again... Can you explain this? [[User:Flare the Red Yoshi|Flare the Red Yoshi]] ([[User talk:Flare the Red Yoshi|talk]]) 11:29, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
:Did you use your Restore Point when you were on Hard Mode? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:38, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
 
Yes and it's not bad what happened, I'm just confused. {{unsigned|Flare the Red Yoshi}}
:iirc, the game does have a slight memory. When you reset, the game takes you to the first level of the world you were in. I think if you hold A while you press START, you'll return to the world you died in? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:19, 21 May 2017 (EDT)
 
==Arcade Archives Port==
Arcade Archives VS Super Mario Bros. on Switch needs to be added to the "Alternate versions and re-releases" section. {{unsigned|Opalhat}}
 
:Re-releases of a variation of ''Super Mario Bros.'' are covered on their [[VS. Super Mario Bros.|respective pages]]. For example, the Virtual Console release of ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]'' is not listed here, and is covered on its own page instead. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:45, 20 January 2018 (EST)

::That said, it was "Blooper" in the NES guides ''How to Win at Super Mario Bros.'' and ''The Official Nintendo Player's Guide'', but those were both released sometime later in 1987 - "Bloober" is used in the manual that came with the game.

== References in later games ==
 
Could somebody add the fact that the theme of the Loves Me Not minigame from [[Super Mario 64 DS]] is a remix of the [[Super Mario Bros.]] underwater theme? I'm an IP address and therefore I cannot. [[Special:Contributions/73.168.5.183|73.168.5.183]] 18:59, May 1, 2020 (EDT)

==AKA ''Super Mario Bros. 1''==
Is this really noteworthy? The [https://topics.nintendo.co.jp/article/5d6e9160-06ba-4341-b081-331de6756497 current source] has only one mention as a header called ''『スーパーマリオブラザーズ1・2』のヒント'' (''Super Mario Bros. 1&2'' Hints). This seems like a shorthand way of fitting "''Super Mario Bros. + Super Mario Bros. 2''" within the same space, making it informal, not the official title mentioned elsewhere in the source. It's a casual reference like ''Super Mario'' or, with some Japanese fans, 「スーマリ」 (''SuMari''), that is meant to pair with the sequel and would probably work better as just a redirect.

== Jeff Rovin's [[How to Win at Super Mario Bros. Games]] ==
 
''Important note: I recommend someone who owns a copy of this book makes a response.''
 
The book [[How to Win at Super Mario Bros. Games]] by Jeff Rovin features walkthroughs for this game and SMB3. I think it would be nice if somewhere online there were a web site talking about errors in this book's SMB walkthrough. There are in fact a few errors I have in my memory:
 
*Book says: the fifth Fire Bar in 1-4 moves clockwise.
*Truth: the fifth Fire Bar in 1-4 moves counterclockwise.
 
*Book says: the invisible 1-Up mushroom in 3-1 will be collectible if you're Super Mario and may or may not if you're small Mario.
*Truth: whether the invisible 1-Up mushroom in 3-1 is collectible depends on whether you didn't dodge any coins in 2-3.
 
*Book says: the underwater section of 8-4 is optional.
*Truth: the underwater section of 8-4 is compulsory.
 
It would also be nice if MarioWiki had an article on this book; then I could include these errors in the book's walkthrough in the article myself. [[Special:Contributions/99.101.66.106|99.101.66.106]] 13:29, August 11, 2021 (EDT)
:On the bottom of the front cover, it says "Unofficial Guide - Not Endorsed By Nintendo".--[[User:Platform|Platform]] ([[User talk:Platform|talk]]) 01:39, September 3, 2022 (EDT)
 
== Enemy name error in Regional Differences ==
 
There are two typos where [[Blooper]] is spelt as "Bloober" and [[Cheep Cheep]]s is spelt as "Cheep-cheeps". Also, should [[Goomba]]s be called "Little Goombas"? {{unsigned|NintendoFan08}}
:Not an error, that's a case of a rename over time. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 14:30, October 5, 2022 (EDT)
 
== ''Super Mario Bros.'' reference in ''Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit'' ==
 
In ''[[Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit]]'', there is a course titled [[World 1-1 (Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit)|World 1-1]] and is themed around ''Super Mario Bros.'', as it is named after [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]], contains 8-Bit [[Goomba]]s and [[Coin]]s, and features scenery in the style of ''Super Mario Bros.'' such as the words "Mario Kart" on the start/finish line gate being in the [[Joystix]] font and the cloud sprites from the game being present. --[[User:NintendoFan08|NintendoFan08]] ([[User talk:NintendoFan08|talk]]) 12:03, October 6, 2022 (EDT)

== Split References in other media section ==
{{settled TPP}}
{{Proposal outcome|passed|7-0|Split References in other media section}}
Remember how, a while back, I proposed that the [[The Super Mario Bros. Movie#References to other media|References to other media]] section of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'' should be moved to [[List of references in The Super Mario Bros. Movie|its own list article]]? That was because of how long it was and how much space it took up. The [[Super Mario Bros.#References in other media|References in other media]] section looks to be of equal length, and should preferably be split into its own list article of the same format.
 
Just to be clear, I'm '''not''' referring to the [[Super Mario Bros.#References to other media|References to other media]] section; it's far too short. It's the References '''''in''''' other media section I'm referring to. I'll make a draft in my sandbox later on (currently busy irl) to demonstrate what it would look like. {{User:RetroNintendo2008/sig}} 08:52, September 28, 2024 (EDT)
 
'''Proposer''': {{User|RetroNintendo2008}}<br>
'''Deadline''': October 12, 2024, 23:59 GMT
 
===Split===
#{{User|RetroNintendo2008}} Per proposal.
#{{User|ThePowerPlayer}} Given that ''Super Mario Bros.'' is likely the most iconic game in the entire franchise, this is a good opportunity to trim the references section in the main article, since I foresee this list only growing in the future. Also, once split to its own article, images could be added to make the references more immediately clear.
#{{User|Pizza Master}} Per all.
#{{User|Killer Moth}} Per all.
#{{User|EvieMaybe}} i wonder what'll be the next game to require this
#{{User|Power Flotzo}} Per all.
