Super Mario Bros. is a video game released for the Family Computer and Nintendo Entertainment System in 1985. It shifted the gameplay away from its single-screen arcade predecessor, Mario Bros., and instead featured side-scrolling platformer levels. While not the first game of the Super Mario franchise (the first being Donkey Kong), Super Mario Bros. is the most iconic, and it introduced various series staples, including power-ups, classic enemies such as Goombas, and the basic premise of rescuing Princess Peach from Bowser.

As well as kicking off an entire series of Super Mario platform games, the wild success of Super Mario Bros. popularized the genre as a whole, helped revive the North American gaming industry after the video game crash of 1983, and was largely responsible for the initial success of the NES, with which it was bundled as a launch title. Until it was eventually surpassed by Wii Sports, Super Mario Bros. was the best-selling video game of all time for nearly three decades, with over 40 million copies sold worldwide.

The exact day of the North American release of Super Mario Bros. is heavily disputed, with different sources giving different dates with no way to verify them. Regardless, Nintendo officially pinpoints the release date as October 18, 1985.^[2]

A successor named Super Mario Bros. 2 in Japan (later renamed Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels in North America) was released on June 3, 1986. Another successor sharing its English name with its predecessor's Japanese name was released on October 9, 1988. A third successor named Super Mario Bros. 3 was released on October 23, 1988.

Super Mario Bros. has been ported to many consoles. It was one of the NES games that could be played on the Nintendo PlayChoice-10 and NES Classic Edition, and it was released on the Wii, Wii U, and Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console and on Nintendo Switch's Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online.

Story

The following text is taken directly from the NES instruction booklet localization.

One day the kingdom of the peaceful mushroom people was invaded by the Koopa, a tribe of turtles famous for their black magic. The quiet, peace-loving Mushroom People were turned into mere stones, bricks and even field horsehair plants, and the Mushroom Kingdom fell into ruin.
The only one who can undo the magic spell on the Mushroom People and return them to their normal selves is the Princess Toadstool, the daughter of the Mushroom King. Unfortunately, she is presently in the hands of the great Koopa turtle king.
Mario, the hero of the story (maybe) hears about the Mushroom People's plight and sets out on a quest to free the Mushroom Princess from the evil Koopa and restore the fallen kingdom of the Mushroom People.
You are Mario! It's up to you to save the Mushroom People from the black magic of the Koopa!

One day, the Mushroom Kingdom was invaded by the Turtle Tribe, whose king was capable of using powerful magic. This magic was used to transform all the Mushroom People into inanimate objects such as rocks, bricks, and even horsetails, thus spelling the kingdom's downfall. Only Princess Toadstool can undo the spell and restore her people to life, but she is being held captive by King Koopa himself. Mario hears of the princess's plight, and sets out on a quest through 32 stages to topple the Turtle Tribe and save the once-peaceful kingdom.^[9]

Gameplay

Super Mario in World 1-1.

Super Mario Bros. is divided into eight worlds, each of them containing four levels. Mario^{[note 1]} has to get to the end of the level by jumping over various gaps and avoiding the enemies on his way. He can use several platforms (some of them collapse when Mario lands on them), stairs in the level, as well as jumping boards. There are also pipes along the way, some of which Mario can enter to visit various secret coin rooms before returning to the level, a bit further ahead than when he left.

Enemies include Little Goombas, Koopa Troopas, Buzzy Beetles, Koopa Paratroopas, Bullet Bills, Hammer Brothers, and leaping Cheep-cheeps. All these enemies can be defeated when Mario jumps on them. Koopa Troopas and Buzzy Beetles cower in their shell when jumped on, which Mario can kick to defeat other enemies with. Koopa Paratroopas lose their wings and fall to the ground when Mario jumps on them. Other enemies include Piranha Plants, and the Spiny-throwing Lakitus, and Mario has to either shoot fireballs at them or just avoid them. Two levels take place underwater. In the water, Mario can swim freely from the top to the bottom of the screen. The enemies in underwater levels are Bloobers and Cheep-cheeps. Mario can only defeat these creatures by shooting them with fireballs.

Mario swimming in World 2-2.

If regular Mario takes a hit, falls down a pit, or if the Time Limit runs out, he loses a life and restarts the level. The point where Mario continues depends on how far he ran through the level before getting defeated; either from the beginning or at one of several invisible "checkpoints" throughout the level. After a Game Over, pressing while holding on the title screen allows the player to continue from the start of the world.^[10] In a 2-player game, if this is done by whoever got a Game Over second, both players will begin in the same world where the second player's game ended.

Mario can get special power-ups out of ? blocks or, uncommonly, bricks. Most of the ?s in which Mario can find these items are visible, but some are hidden and only become visible when Mario hits them from beneath. With the Magic Mushroom, he turns into Super Mario. As Super Mario, he can survive the hit of an enemy one time, at the cost of turning back to regular Mario. He may also destroy empty bricks by jumping beneath them. Additionally, he can also get the Fire Flower. With the Fire Flower, Super Mario turns into Fiery Mario, which allows him to shoot fireballs at enemies to defeat them from a distance. With the 1 up Mushroom, he gains an additional life; he can also get an extra life if he collects a hundred coins. With the Starman, which can only be found in bricks, Mario turns invincible for a short amount of time and can defeat enemies by simply touching them. With the exception of coins, only one item can appear on the screen, and when a new item appears, the previous one will disappear.

At the end of each level, a castle stands with a flagpole nearby. When Mario reaches the flagpole, he takes down the enemy flag and enters the castle, completing the level. The higher the spot that Mario hits the flagpole, the more points he receives. If two players are playing the game, Luigi's turn comes whenever Mario loses a life. Luigi has no special abilities in the game that are different from Mario's.

The fourth level of each world plays inside a castle. They are usually filled with Fire-Bars and Podoboos. At the end of a castle level, Mario is confronted with a fake Bowser in Worlds 1 through 7 and the actual Bowser in World 8. Mario ordinarily has no way to hurt the fake Bowsers or the actual Bowser and has to either use the ax to destroy the bridge, causing either the false or real one to fall into the lava, or pelt him with many fireballs, which produces the same result and reveals the true forms of the fakes. After defeating an impostor, Mario frees one of the seven remaining mushroom retainers from the castle, at which point they say their iconic phrase: "Thank you, Mario! But our princess is in another castle!" At the end of the castle in World 8, Mario frees the grateful Princess Toadstool and completes his adventure, having the choice to continue playing in a "new quest." In this second quest, the player gets to choose a world, and replay some levels. However, all Little Goombas are replaced by Buzzy Beetles, all ground enemies are also considerably faster, some platforms and elevator-style lifts are shortened in length, and the level design is slightly changed for some levels (see below at "Hard mode").

Time clock

The game's levels have a Time Limit in the upper right, which counts down, with the background music speeding up when going below 100. If it reaches 0, the game declares "Time Up", and Mario loses a life. However, the in-game timer runs much faster than in real life; 400 seconds on the timer, which is the default when starting most of the levels, is 160 seconds in real time. The timer countdown speed is the same across NTSC and PAL versions.

amiibo tap: Nintendo's Greatest Bits starts with a real-time 180 second limit, which is sufficient to finish any level, presuming it is finished without losing any lives, and would have 32 timer seconds (15 real-time seconds) to spare for any follow-up levels. For its seventh scene, this is sufficient to see the game's ending.

Hard mode

Main article: Hard Mode § Super Mario Bros.

After beating the main game, the player is given the option to pick a world (by pressing on the title screen to change the world counter in the upper right) to play in "a new quest"—a harder mode where all Little Goombas are replaced by Buzzy Beetles, and all enemies walk faster. Elevator-style lifts that were originally in their wide forms (Six holes wide) are now in their small forms (Four holes wide) that were used from World 5-1 onwards in the main game. Mario^{[note 1]} gains no special powers in hard mode, and he receives no extra points when he defeats an enemy.

The story remains the same, as each of the first seven castles contains a mushroom retainer that needs rescuing, while the eighth castle has Princess Toadstool. If the player finishes the game on hard mode, they will not unlock anything new from the previous time the game was finished. However, points can be gained faster by jumping on a Buzzy Beetle and then running with the shell as it hits other Buzzy Beetles and Koopa Troopas. Earlier levels in hard mode that had harder versions later on the in the main game, now have the harder version used for both levels; for instance, 1-3, which is an easier version of 5-3 in the normal game, is identical to 5-3 in Hard Mode.

Bosses

Mario and Bowser in World 8-4.

A boss occurs in the fourth level of each world, specifically located within the final room of the castle. The boss is on a bridge suspended above a pool of lava. Touching the ax at the opposite corner of the bridge makes it fall away and defeats the boss, but striking one with five fireballs as Fiery Mario defeats it as well. Defeating it this way awards the player with 5000 points. Once defeated, Mario transitions to a narrow corridor where captive is held. In the first seven worlds, this captive is a mushroom retainer that directs Mario further along his journey. In World 8, Princess Toadstool is the one rescued, completing the game. As Mario progresses through the worlds, bricks and lifts appear in the boss rooms as well.

Intrinsically, the only boss in the game is Bowser, the fire-breathing King of Koopas who kidnapped the princess and turned her subjects into horsehairs and bricks. However, Bowser himself only appears at the boss of World 8-4. All of the proceeding "Bowsers" are his minions in disguise. They all exhibit the same behavior: the large Koopa shuffles back and forth along the bridge, facing Mario, and jumping in small arches. These arches are just high enough that Mario can move underneath Bowser if the opportunity presents itself.

In the first five worlds, the fake Bowsers spew Koopa's fire. In the sixth and seventh worlds, they toss hammers like Hammer Brothers. The real Bowser is the only boss that actively does both. Like Spinies, Bowser and fake Bowsers have spiked shells. Attempting to stomp them damages Mario.

Items and objects

Items

Image	Name	Description
	1 up mushroom	Green mushrooms that give Mario an extra life when collected. 1 up mushrooms are within invisible blocks near pits. When one is struck, the mushroom travels across the ground in the opposite direction from Mario.
	Coin	Coins float in mid-air throughout levels and within blocks. Collecting one awards Mario 200 points. Collecting 100 awards him an extra life.
	Koopa shell	Stomping on a Koopa Troopa makes it recede into its shell. Its sent sliding when touched, defeating enemies on contact. Doing so causes the "bulldozer attack", where each enemy defeated grants Mario more points than the last. Launched shells ricochet off collided walls and can damage Mario on contact.
	Buzzy shell	Stomping on a Buzzy Beetle yields a shell that works like the Koopa ones, but it cannot be cleared away with tossed fireballs.

Power-ups

Items that transform Mario's appearance and give him unique abilities called "power boosts" in the instruction booklet. All of these items are held within blocks and must be jumped under to be released. It is not inherently apparent which block contain which power-ups, and breaking them does not grant Mario their abilities. He must touch the power-ups directly once they are expelled. Touching any power-up also awards Mario 1000 points. Forms that share a column look the same for Mario and Luigi.

Power-up	Form		Description
Power-up	Mario	Luigi	Description
N/A	Regular Mario	Regular Luigi	Mario is in this small-sized form when the player starts a new game. Regular Mario is incapable of breaking bricks and loses a life when he makes contact with an enemy or obstacle. However, he can run across narrow passageways without having to crouch. Regardless of the form he was in before losing a life, Mario reappears in the level in his regular form.
Magic Mushroom	Super Mario	Super Luigi	The red Magic Mushrooms are within visible blocks and slide across the ground, similar to 1 up mushrooms. They bounce back in the opposite direction when they hit an obstruction. Touching one transforms Mario into Super Mario, a form twice as tall as his regular form and capable of breaking bricks. Subsequent encounters with blocks intended to contain Magic Mushrooms instead release Fire Flowers when struck in this form. Receiving damaging in this form reverts Mario back into his regular-sized state. He retains this form across levels if he reaches flagpoles as Super Mario.
Fire Flower	Fiery Mario / Luigi		Making contact with a Fire Flower transforms Mario into Fiery Mario. In this form, Mario can toss projectile fireballs with that bounce along the ground. Most enemies are defeated when hit. Fiery Mario also has all the benefits of Super Mario, and similarly retains this form if he completes the level in it. Mario reverts to his regular size if hit as Fiery Mario.
Starman	Invincible Mario / Luigi		Starmen are rare power-ups often hidden in invisible blocks. When released, they bounce in the opposite direction from Mario. When grabbed, Mario is transformed into Invincible Mario for thirty seconds. In this state, Mario is largely indestructible and defeats enemies on contact. Contact with the Starman does not wholly replace the form Mario was already in (i.e., Mario remains small if one is touched while in his regular form, and he can still toss fireballs if he is in his Fiery form.) Invincible Mario cannot be carried over to subsequent levels.

Objects

Objects are interactable elements of the environment that cannot be picked up or collected.

Image	Name	Description
Blocks
	? block	Floating blocks that contain items. One releases its contents when jumped underneath. Some ? blocks are ten-coin blocks that release up to 10 coins if struck in rapid succession. Others are invisible. A struck ? block becomes an empty block that can be used as platforms. These are the only type of strikable blocks that regular Mario can open.
	Brick	The most common blocks. Most bricks fall apart when struck, but some are secretly ? or ten-coin blocks. Regular Mario is incapable of directly breaking a brick block, but he can still use a shell if available.
	Coral	Coral form varyingly sized columns in underwater levels that obstruct Mario.
	Small cloud	Cloud-like blocks make up the terrain in Bonus Stages high in the sky.
	Stairblock	Unbreakable blocks that appear on the ground. Some are stacked or laid next to each other to form climbable staircases or incomplete bridges.
Platforms
	Jumping board	Jumping boards bounce Mario into the air. Pressing when the the spring is fully contracted makes a jumping board launch Mario much higher than it would otherwise.
	Lift	Thin, moving platforms. They are most common in athletic levels, above bottomless pits. Lifts are of varying widths and movements. There is a paired type of Lifts called Balance Lifts that are a seesaw-like pulley system, where standing on one Lift makes it fall and the other rise. There are also types of Lifts that fall shortly after being stepped on.
	Pipe	Most pipes are columnar platforms of varying height, some of which contain Piranha plants. A few of them are Warp Pipes that bring Mario to a secret underground area by pressing down on .
	Super mushroom	Giant mushrooms that occur in athletic levels, high above bottomless pits.
Goals
	Ax	Touching an ax causes the bridge it is alongside to collapse. This defeats the boss that was on top of it and completes the level.
	Flagpole	Flagpoles are the goals at the end of most levels. When one is touched, Mario slides to the base and completes the level. Touching one also rewards him bonus points. The higher he is on the flagpole, the greater the number of points. Grabbing the top rewards Mario 5000 points.
Other objects
	Beanstalk	Beanstalks rapidly grow from struck vine blocks, ascending skyward. Climbing one brings Mario to a hidden Bonus Stage in the sky.
	Firework	Fireworks appear if Mario grabs a flagpole with 1, 3, or 6 as the last digit on the timer. The number of fireworks that go off correlates with this number, and each one rewards Mario 500 points.
	Horsehair plant	Field horsehair plants appear in the background of ground-themed levels. According to the instruction booklet, Bowser transformed some of the Mushroom Kingdom's inhabitants into these plants.

Glitches

Main article: List of Super Mario Bros. glitches

Minus World

The Minus World entrance screen

Minus World in the NES version

Main article: Minus World

The Minus World is an endless underwater level, identical to World 7-2, which is accessed through a programming glitch. There is no way to complete the level, as entering the pipe at the end will simply return Mario or Luigi to the one at the beginning. While there is no strategic advantage in performing this glitch, many find it intriguing. The glitch was removed in some remakes of the game, excluding the imports, the Virtual Console port, and Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros. The Family Computer Disk System release has a different Minus World with three levels that can be beaten, and once -3 is complete, the player will return to the title screen as if they had beaten the game.

Mario goes through the wall and enters World -1

To perform the glitch, Mario must go to World 1-2 and stand on top of the pipe that leads to the above-ground flag, without going in the pipe. Then he must break the second and third block from the pipe, but leave the one on the far right. Then he must stand on the left edge of the pipe (facing left) and duck. He then has to jump while in a ducking position and move right in mid-air (while still facing left). If done correctly, Mario will go through the block on the far right and the wall to the Warp Zone. Mario must then go through the pipe that would normally lead to World 2-1 or World 4-1, and Mario will enter the Minus World.

If World 2-2 or 7-2 is edited in a ROM editor so that it is possible to beat it during the underwater segment, there is a World -2, an underwater version of 3-4. If World 3-4 is edited in a ROM editor, then there is a World -3. It is also a version of 3-4, but with overworld graphics; beating World -3 takes the player to World -4, a level which is just a blank screen.

Over the Flagpole glitch in World 3-3

In some levels, it is possible to jump over the flagpole. Beyond the flag pole is nothing but an endless path. There is nothing to do; all that can be done is wait for the timer to get to zero. To do this glitch in World 1-1, right after the second pit, Mario needs to wait for the Koopa Troopa to about to fall into the pit and simultaneously jump at the top of the level right above the Koopa. After that, the Koopa will be stuck underneath the level, but the player will still be able to see it. When the Koopa starts to walk under the level, Mario should follow it to the end. Along the way, it is required to grab a Magic Mushroom. When the Koopa is halfway between the staircase and the flagpole, the player must do the glitch again and Mario will jump above the flagpole.

To do this glitch in World 3-3, at the end of the level the player must stand on the last lift until another one has completely lifted, before falling off. After that, the player must accelerate as fast as possible and jump from the far edge of the lift. The lift should not lower while doing so.^[11]

There is a brick right after the fortress's or castle's first door, which stops Mario from going past the Fortress at the end of the levels.

In Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, this is exploited to hide Warp Zones. In worlds 3-1 and A-3, there are warp zones placed beyond the goals. In other worlds, while it is possible to go over the flagpole, the edge of the world is a few steps past the fortress, and the player is not able to go far enough for the flagpole to scroll off the screen.

This glitch was fixed in the Super Mario All-Stars version.

Development

Development for Super Mario Bros. began after Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka finished two other games together beforehand: Excitebike and Devil World. When designing Super Mario Bros., they wanted to use the scrolling screens of Excitebike and the large character sprites from Devil World, to make Super Mario Bros. stand out from other titles. Miyamoto and Tezuka wanted to fit various technologies into the game, comparing it to a puzzle. The name "Super Mario Bros." also came from Mario's new Super form.^[12]

Super Mario Bros. was developed at the same time as The Legend of Zelda, and both shared numerous staff members: Miyamoto, Tezuka, Toshihiko Nakago, Koji Kondo, Kazuaki Morita, Yasunari Nishida, and Hiroshi Yamauchi. According to the developers, some aspects of Super Mario Bros. were taken from The Legend of Zelda; Fire-Bars were one example, as they were present in the dungeons in The Legend of Zelda. Miyamoto implemented Fire-Bars into Super Mario Bros. as an obstacle.

The main goal of Super Mario Bros. was to have a character travel through many lands with all different themes to each other and it would feature a diverse terrain, such as land, water, and sky. They also intended for the main character to be twice the size of the final one. At the beginning of developing the game, the placeholder playable character was a 16×32 pixel square.^[13] The square could not even jump and as a result, Tezuka suggested making Mario the playable character instead of the square due to the popularity of Mario Bros., which Miyamoto accepted.^[14]

Nakago and his team, Systems Research and Development (SRD), colored the background blue in some levels.^[15] This was unusual, because video games released during this time usually had a black background, to avoid eye-strain and to avoid getting distracted by the bright colors. After coloring the background blue in some levels, Nakago then started designing maps for this game. Miyamoto wanted the levels to be around a minute long and he told SRD to do so. He then realized that it usually takes about a second to travel across a screen and that numerous screens would have been implemented in one stage. SRD first thought that Miyamoto had requested them to make 60 screens per stage, but Miyamoto then explained that obstacles in each screen would slow down the player's progress, which resulted in an average of about 12 screens per level. The stage with the most screens has only 32, which is about half of what SRD had originally expected.

When designing the stages themselves, because a level creating tool was not available to them at the time, Miyamoto and Tezuka would draw the levels on graph paper, and then Nakago and his team would design and program it into the game; if edits were to be made to the original drawings, a sheet of clear paper was placed over the original drawings.^[16] Nakago has stated that a lot of documents were sent to his team every day to change some aspects of stages. Every day, the group would do all they could do of what was stated in the documents and would work until 10 at night.

In two Japanese interviews promoting The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Miyamoto gave insight into the original background for the connection between the story of Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros., stating that the among the pipes in Mario Bros., one of them leads to the Mushroom Kingdom where Super Mario Bros. takes place.^[17]^[18]

According to Toru Iwatani, creator of Pac-Man, Miyamoto told him personally that Super Mario Bros. was influenced by Pac-Land, the pioneer of action games with horizontally running background.^[19]

The "Ending" theme in the Famicom Disk System version of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels was first composed as the ending theme of Super Mario Bros., before being shortened due to storage limitations.^[20]

Regional differences

The European version of the game adds one pixel to the hitboxes of Little Goombas, Spinies, Piranha Plants, Bloobers, Cheep-cheeps and Bullet Bills.^[21]

Pre-release and unused content

Main article: List of Super Mario Bros. pre-release and unused content

The game was far more focused on action than platforming. The game was split between ground and sky segments, which had Mario shooting enemies. Mario could use weapons and the control scheme was different as a result, such as having the up arrow of the used as the jump button.

Reception and legacy

The Super Mario Bros. Avenue in Zaragoza, Spain

Super Mario Bros. received critical acclaim and is considered one of the best games of all time. One of the most-praised aspects of the game is the precise controls, which allow players to control how far and high the characters jump and how fast they can run. The game popularized side-scrolling video games, and the game has since received several sequels and spin-offs, and many different ports and alternative versions. All characters, enemies, and items found in the game have become core elements of the Super Mario franchise and the plot of Bowser kidnapping the princess has continued to be used throughout the core Super Mario series.

The game was placed 14th in the 100th issue of Nintendo Power's "100 best Nintendo games of all time" in 1997.^{[page number needed]} It ranked the first spot in Electronic Gaming Monthly's "Greatest 200 Games of Their Time", named in IGN's top 100 games of all time lists in 2005 and 2007, and declared the second-best Mario game of all time. IGN also placed it 3rd in their Top 100 NES Games list.^[22]

Super Mario Bros. sold 40.24 million units with its original release,^[23] being the second best-selling Super Mario game and among the best-selling video games of all time. It has received several other works such as The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! and the Super Mario Bros. film.

The game's impact on popular culture was so big that in 2010, a street in Zaragoza, Aragón (Spain), was named after it, with a ceremony being held in celebration.^[24]

A comparison of the Super Mario Bros. and Mario Pikachu artwork

Despite being unmentioned in the Japanese manual,^[9] the Mushroom King appears in Asian-drawn strategy guide illustrations.
The Guinness Book of World Records 2011: Gamer's Edition states that this game was also remade on the Nintendo 64,^[30] which is incorrect.
In a 2011 United States Supreme Court case, Brown v. Entertainment Merchants Association (which overturned a California law banning the sale of violent video games to children without parental supervision), the Electronic Frontier Foundation submitted an amicus brief citing social research that declared Super Mario Bros. to be a violent video game. In the brief, it was stated that the game contained cartoon violence similar to that found in various Saturday morning television shows, the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote cartoons, and the Mighty Mouse series, which garnered little negative reaction from the public in their own times.^[31]^[32]
A promotional artwork for the "Mario Pikachu" line of merchandise, based on the artwork for the Famicom release of Super Mario Bros., replaces the original game's characters and elements with Pokémon and elements from the Pokémon series. The changes are the following:
- Mario is replaced by Pikachu.
- Bowser is replaced by Blastoise.
- Princess Peach is replaced by Diancie.
- The Toads are replaced by two Foongus.
- The Koopa Paratroopa is replaced by a Wartortle.
- The castle is replaced by Bell Tower.
- A flower is replaced by Flabébé.
- The Goomba is replaced by a Shroomish.
- The Bullet Bill is replaced by Beldum.
- The Super Mushroom is replaced by a Big Mushroom.
- The Blooper is replaced by an Inkay.
- The hill is now orange and the Warp Pipe has been replaced by Slowpoke Well.
- The Koopa Troopa is replaced by a Squirtle.
- The Cheep Cheep is replaced by a Qwilfish.
- The Hammer Bro is replaced by a Psyduck.
- The cliff is now a cave.
- The Spiny is replaced by a Ferroseed, and the Lakitu is replaced by a Landorus.
The South African release in 1993 reuses the European version's packaging, the only NES game to do so in the region; all other South African NES titles feature a red "South African Version" banner on the box art and cartridge label.^[33]

In fact, the Mario movie that was made a long time ago under license also had such a story. Originally, the stories of the games were connected via 'The first Mario Bros., which takes place underground in New York City, full of pipes', to 'the second Super Mario Bros., in which the pipes lead to a mysterious world'.

-'''''Super Mario Bros.''''' (known as ''Super Mario'' in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', Japanese スーパーマリオブラザーズ ''Super Mario Brothers'') is the semi-sequel to ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'', a game which was released for the [[Famicom]] on September 13, 1985, and on the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] in North America on October 18, 1985. After the previous games were set on [[Earth]], ''Super Mario Bros.'' is the first game to be set in the [[Mushroom World]], marking the first appearances of [[Bowser]] and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], as well as [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Goomba]]s and many other [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]] enemies.  ''Super Mario Bros.'' is the best selling video game of all time, and was largely responsible for the initial success of the Nintendo Entertainment System.  As of 2003, the game has sold more than 40.23 million copies worldwide.
+'''''Super Mario Bros.''''' is a video game released for the [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] in [[List of games by date#1985|1985]]. It shifted the gameplay away from its single-screen arcade predecessor, ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'', and instead featured side-scrolling platformer [[level]]s. While not the first game of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] (the first being ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]''), ''Super Mario Bros.'' is the most iconic, and it introduced various series staples, including power-ups, classic enemies such as [[Goomba]]s, and the basic premise of rescuing [[Princess Peach]] from [[Bowser]].
+As well as kicking off an entire series of ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' platform games, the wild success of ''Super Mario Bros.'' popularized the genre as a whole, helped revive the North American gaming industry after the {{wp|video game crash of 1983}}, and was largely responsible for the initial success of the NES, with which it was bundled as a launch title. Until it was eventually surpassed by ''[[miiwiki:Wii Sports|Wii Sports]]'', ''Super Mario Bros.'' was the best-selling video game of all time for nearly three decades, with over 40 million copies sold worldwide.
+The exact day of the North American release of ''Super Mario Bros.'' is heavily disputed, with different sources giving different dates with no way to verify them. Regardless, Nintendo officially pinpoints the release date as October 18, 1985.<ref name=narelease/>
+A successor named ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' in Japan (later renamed ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' in North America) was released on June 3, 1986. Another successor [[Super Mario Bros. 2|sharing its English name with its predecessor's Japanese name]] was released on October 9, 1988. A third successor named ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' was released on October 23, 1988.
+''Super Mario Bros.'' has been [[#Alternate versions and re-releases|ported]] to many consoles. It was one of the NES games that could be played on the [[Nintendo PlayChoice-10]] and [[Classics#NES Classic Edition|NES Classic Edition]], and it was released on the [[Wii]], [[Wii U]], and [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Virtual Console]] and on [[Nintendo Switch]]'s [[Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online]].
 ==Story==
-One day, [[King Bowser Koopa]], the great and powerful leader of the militaristic [[Koopa Troop]], invades the peaceful [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. He and his Koopa Troop were jealous of the beautiful kingdom, and King Bowser decided to take it for himself. To do this, Bowser casts an evil spell upon the kingdom and transforms all of its [[Toad (species)|inhabitants]] into [[block]]s, weeds, and other odd objects. It is foretold that only the [[King Toadstool|Mushroom King's]] daughter [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] can undo the spell, so Bowser kidnaps her. Fortunately, the heroic Mario Bros. get wind of the Mushroom Kingdom's plight and race to its rescue.
+The following text is taken directly from the NES instruction booklet localization.
+<blockquote>
+One day the kingdom of the peaceful [[Toad (species)|mushroom people]] was invaded by the [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]], a tribe of turtles famous for their black magic. The quiet, peace-loving Mushroom People were turned into mere stones, [[Brick Block|brick]]s and even [[Horsetail|field horsehair plant]]s, and the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] fell into ruin.
+The only one who can undo the magic spell on the Mushroom People and return them to their normal selves is the [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], the daughter of the [[Mushroom King]]. Unfortunately, she is presently in the hands of the [[Bowser|great Koopa turtle king]].
+[[Mario]], the hero of the story (maybe) hears about the Mushroom People's plight and sets out on a quest to free the Mushroom Princess from the evil Koopa and restore the fallen kingdom of the Mushroom People.
-The player takes the role of [[Mario]], or in the case of a second player, Mario's brother [[Luigi]]. The ultimate objective is to race through the worlds of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], evade or eliminate [[Bowser|Bowser's]] forces, and save the Princess.<ref>''Super Mario Bros.'' game manual, page 2</ref>
+You are Mario! It's up to you to save the Mushroom People from the black magic of the Koopa!
+</blockquote>
+One day, the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] was invaded by the [[Koopa (species)|Turtle Tribe]], whose king was capable of using powerful magic. This magic was used to transform all the [[Toad (species)|Mushroom People]] into inanimate objects such as rocks, [[Brick Block|brick]]s, and even [[horsetail]]s, thus spelling the kingdom's downfall. Only [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] can undo the spell and restore her people to life, but she is being held captive by [[Bowser|King Koopa]] himself. [[Mario]] hears of the princess's plight, and sets out on a quest through 32 stages to topple the Turtle Tribe and save the once-peaceful kingdom.<ref name=MushStory>{{cite|url=legendsoflocalization.com/comparisons/super-mario-bros/manuals/|author=Mandelin, Clyde|title=Super Mario Bros.

 ==Gameplay==
-''Super Mario Bros.'' is divided into eight worlds, which each have four levels. Mario has to get to the end of the level by jumping over various gaps and avoiding the enemies on his way. Mario can use several platforms, (which sometimes fall down when Mario hits them), stairs in the level, as well as [[Trampoline|Jumping Boards]].  There are also pipes along the way, some of which Mario can enter to visit various coin rooms before returning to the level, a bit further ahead than when he left.
+[[File:SMBLevel.png|thumb|left|[[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]] in World 1-1.]]
+''Super Mario Bros.'' is divided into eight worlds, each of them containing four levels. Mario<ref name=luigi group=note>Unless explicitly specified otherwise, any mentioning of Mario is equally applicable to Luigi during his playthrough.</ref> has to get to the end of the level by jumping over various gaps and avoiding the enemies on his way. He can use several platforms (some of them collapse when Mario lands on them), stairs in the level, as well as [[Trampoline|jumping board]]s. There are also pipes along the way, some of which Mario can enter to visit various secret coin rooms before returning to the level, a bit further ahead than when he left.
+Enemies include [[Goomba|Little Goomba]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Buzzy Beetle]]s, [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s, [[Bullet Bill]]s, [[Hammer Bro]]thers, and leaping [[Cheep Cheep|Cheep-cheep]]s. All these enemies can be defeated when Mario jumps on them. Koopa Troopas and Buzzy Beetles cower in their shell when jumped on, which Mario can kick to defeat other enemies with. Koopa Paratroopas lose their wings and fall to the ground when Mario jumps on them. Other enemies include [[Piranha Plant]]s, and the [[Spiny]]-throwing [[Lakitu]]s, and Mario has to either shoot fireballs at them or just avoid them. Two levels take place underwater. In the water, Mario can swim freely from the top to the bottom of the screen. The enemies in underwater levels are [[Blooper|Bloober]]s and [[Cheep Cheep|Cheep-cheep]]s. Mario can only defeat these creatures by shooting them with [[fireball]]s.
+[[File:SMB NES World 2-2 Screenshot.png|thumb|left|Mario swimming in World 2-2.]]
+If [[Small Mario|regular Mario]] takes a hit, falls down a pit, or if the [[Time Limit]] runs out, he loses a life and restarts the level. The point where Mario continues depends on how far he ran through the level before getting defeated; either from the beginning or at one of several invisible "checkpoints" throughout the level. After a Game Over, pressing {{button|nes|START}} while holding {{button|nes|A}} on the title screen allows the player to continue from the start of the world.<ref>{{cite|author=Ed Acosta|date=January 25, 2015|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOp84p-LJTs|title=Super Mario Bros a+start level restart|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref> In a 2-player game, if this is done by whoever got a Game Over second, both players will begin in the same world where the second player's game ended.
+Mario can get special power-ups out of [[? Block|?]] blocks or, uncommonly, [[Brick Block|brick]]s. Most of the ?s in which Mario can find these items are visible, but some are hidden and only become visible when Mario hits them from beneath. With the [[Super Mushroom|Magic Mushroom]], he turns into [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]]. As Super Mario, he can survive the hit of an enemy one time, at the cost of turning back to [[Small Mario|regular Mario]]. He may also destroy empty bricks by jumping beneath them. Additionally, he can also get the [[Fire Flower]]. With the Fire Flower, Super Mario turns into [[Fire Mario|Fiery Mario]], which allows him to shoot fireballs at enemies to defeat them from a distance. With the [[1-Up Mushroom|1 up Mushroom]], he gains an additional life; he can also get an extra life if he collects a hundred [[coin]]s. With the [[Super Star|Starman]], which can only be found in bricks, Mario turns invincible for a short amount of time and can defeat enemies by simply touching them. With the exception of coins, only one item can appear on the screen, and when a new item appears, the previous one will disappear.
+At the end of each level, a castle stands with a [[Goal Pole|flagpole]] nearby. When Mario reaches the flagpole, he takes down the enemy flag and enters the castle, completing the level. The higher the spot that Mario hits the flagpole, the more points he receives. If two players are playing the game, [[Luigi]]'s turn comes whenever Mario loses a life. Luigi has no special abilities in the game that are different from Mario's.
+The fourth level of each world plays inside a castle. They are usually filled with [[Fire Bar|Fire-Bar]]s and [[Lava Bubble|Podoboo]]s. At the end of a castle level, Mario is confronted with a [[Impostor Bowser|fake Bowser]] in Worlds 1 through 7 and the actual Bowser in World 8. Mario ordinarily has no way to hurt the fake Bowsers or the actual Bowser and has to either use the [[axe|ax]] to destroy the bridge, causing either the false or real one to fall into the [[lava]], or pelt him with many fireballs, which produces the same result and reveals the true forms of the fakes. After defeating an impostor, Mario frees one of the seven remaining [[Toad (species)|mushroom retainer]]s from the castle, at which point they say their iconic phrase: "Thank you, Mario! But our princess is in another castle!" At the end of the castle in World 8, Mario frees the grateful Princess Toadstool and completes his adventure, having the choice to continue playing in a "new quest." In this second quest, the player gets to choose a world, and replay some levels. However, all [[Goomba|Little Goomba]]s are replaced by [[Buzzy Beetle]]s, all ground enemies are also considerably faster, some platforms and [[elevator]]-style lifts are shortened in length, and the level design is slightly changed for some levels (see below at "Hard mode").
+===Time clock===
+The game's levels have a [[Time Limit]] in the upper right, which counts down, with the background music speeding up when going below 100. If it reaches 0, the game declares "Time Up", and Mario loses a life. However, the in-game timer runs much faster than in real life; 400 seconds on the timer, which is the default when starting most of the levels, is 160 seconds in real time. The timer countdown speed is the same across NTSC and PAL versions.
+''[[amiibo tap: Nintendo's Greatest Bits]]'' starts with a real-time 180 second limit, which is sufficient to finish any level, presuming it is finished without losing any lives, and would have 32 timer seconds (15 real-time seconds) to spare for any follow-up levels. For [[World 8-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|its seventh scene]], this is sufficient to see the game's ending.
-Enemies include [[Goomba]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Buzzy Beetle]]s, [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s, [[Bullet Bill]]s, [[Hammer Bros.]], and jumping [[Cheep-Cheep]]. All these enemies can be defeated when Mario jumps on them. Koopa Troopas and Buzzy Beetles will leave their shell on the ground, which Mario can kick to hit other enemies with. Koopa Paratroopas lose their wings and fall to the ground when Mario jumps on them. Other enemies include [[Piranha Plant]]s, the [[Spiny]]-throwing [[Lakitu]]s and the [[Hammer Bro.|Hammer Bros.]] These enemies are hard to defeat, and Mario has to avoid them. There are a few levels which are underwater. Underwater, Mario can swim freely from the top to the bottom of the screen. The enemies in underwater levels are [[Blooper|Bloobers]] and Cheep-Cheep, and Mario has no way to defeat them aside from [[fireballs]].
+===Hard mode===
+{{main|Hard Mode#Super Mario Bros.}}
+After beating the main game, the player is given the option to pick a world (by pressing {{button|nes|B}} on the title screen to change the world counter in the upper right) to play in "[[Hard Mode|a new quest]]"—a harder mode where all Little Goombas are replaced by Buzzy Beetles, and all enemies walk faster. Elevator-style lifts that were originally in their wide forms (Six holes wide) are now in their small forms (Four holes wide) that were used from World 5-1 onwards in the main game. Mario<ref name=luigi group=note></ref> gains no special powers in hard mode, and he receives no extra points when he defeats an enemy.
-If Mario takes a hit, falls down a pit, or if the [[time limit]] runs out, he loses a life, and starts again. The point where Mario continues depends on how far he ran through the level before dying; either from the very beginning, or at one of several invisible "checkpoints" throughout the level.
+The story remains the same, as each of the first seven castles contains a mushroom retainer that needs rescuing, while the eighth castle has Princess Toadstool. If the player finishes the game on hard mode, they will not unlock anything new from the previous time the game was finished. However, points can be gained faster by jumping on a Buzzy Beetle and then running with the shell as it hits other Buzzy Beetles and Koopa Troopas. Earlier levels in hard mode that had harder versions later on the in the main game, now have the harder version used for both levels; for instance, 1-3, which is an easier version of 5-3 in the normal game, is identical to 5-3 in Hard Mode.
-[[image:Smblevel.jpg|thumb|left|[[Super Mario]] in World 1-1.]]
+===Controls===
-Mario can get special power-ups out of [[? Block]]s or, uncommonly, [[Brick Block]]s. Most of the ? Blocks in which Mario can find these items are visible, but some are hidden and only become visible when Mario hits them from beneath. With the [[Super Mushroom]], he turns into [[Super Mario]]. As Super Mario, he can survive the hit of an enemy one time, at the cost of turning back to [[Small Mario]]. Additionally, he can now get the [[Fire Flower]]. With the Fire Flower, Super Mario turns into [[Fire Mario]], which allows him to shoot fireballs at enemies to defeat them from a distance. With the [[1-Up Mushroom]], he gets an additional life; he can also get an extra life if he collects 100 [[coins]]. With the [[Star]]man, which can only be found in Brick Blocks, Mario turns invincible for a short amount of time, and can defeat enemies by simply touching them.
+The controls can be customized on Wii U Virtual Console and to some extent in Nintendo Switch's system settings.

-At the end of each level, there is a castle with a [[flagpole]] nearby. When Mario his the flagpole, he takes down Bowser's flag and enters the castle, completing the level. The higher the spot is where Mario hits the flagpole, the more points he gets. If there are two players playing the game, Luigi's turn comes whenever Mario completes a level or dies. Luigi has no special abilities in the game that are different from Mario's.

-The fourth level of each world plays inside a castle. They are usually filled with [[Firebar]]s, and [[Podoboo]]s may appear. At the end of a castle level, Mario is confronted with a [[False Bowser]] in Worlds 1 - 7 and the real Bowser in World 8. Mario ordinarily has no way to hurt Bowser, and has to either use the [[Ax]] to destroy the ground, causing the false Bowser or Bowser to fall into the [[lava]], or pelt Bowser with a number of fireballs, which produces the same result and reveals the true forms of the fakes. After defeating a false Bowser, Mario frees several [[Toad (species)|Toads]] from the castle. There is one Toad in World 1, two Toads in World 2, and so on. In World 8, Mario frees Princess Toadstool. If Mario frees Toads, they will say their signature sentence "Thank you, Mario! But our princess is in another castle...".

-==Modes==
+==Enemies and obstacles==
-After beating the game, the player is given the option to start the game again in '''Hard Mode''', where all Goombas are replaced by Buzzy Beetles, and all enemies walk faster; all of the elevator-style lifts are about sixty-percent of their original size, while [[firebar]]s appear in all possible locations. However, the player still has the same amount of time to complete each level. The Mario Bros. gain no special powers in '''Hard Mode''', and they receive no extra points when they defeat an enemy. The story remains exactly the same, as each of the first seven castles contain a Mushroom Retainer that needs rescuing, while the eight castle has Princess Toadstool. If the player finishes the game on hard mode, he or she will unlock nothing new from the previous time the game was finished.

+===Bosses===
+[[File:SMB NES Bowser Screenshot.png|thumb|Mario and Bowser in World 8-4.]]
+A [[boss]] occurs in the fourth level of each world, specifically located within the final room of the [[castle]]. The boss is on a bridge suspended above a pool of lava. Touching the [[Axe|ax]] at the opposite corner of the bridge makes it fall away and defeats the boss, but striking one with five [[fireball]]s as [[Fire Mario|Fiery Mario]] defeats it as well. Defeating it this way awards the player with 5000 points. Once defeated, Mario transitions to a narrow corridor where captive is held. In the first seven [[world]]s, this captive is a [[Toad (species)|mushroom retainer]] that directs Mario further along his journey. In [[World 8 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 8]], [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] is the one rescued, completing the game. As Mario progresses through the worlds, [[Brick Block|brick]]s and lifts appear in the boss rooms as well.
+Intrinsically, the only boss in the game is [[Bowser]], the fire-breathing King of [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]]s who kidnapped the princess and turned her subjects into [[horsetail|horsehair]]s and bricks. However, Bowser himself only appears at the boss of [[World 8-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-4]]. All of the proceeding "Bowsers" are his [[Impostor Bowser|minions in disguise]]. They all exhibit the same behavior: the large Koopa shuffles back and forth along the bridge, facing Mario, and jumping in small arches. These arches are just high enough that Mario can move underneath Bowser if the opportunity presents itself.
+In the first five worlds, the fake Bowsers spew Koopa's fire. In the sixth and seventh worlds, they toss [[hammer]]s like Hammer Brothers. The real Bowser is the only boss that actively does both. Like Spinies, Bowser and fake Bowsers have spiked shells. Attempting to [[stomp]] them damages Mario.

+===Power-ups===
+Items that transform Mario's appearance and give him unique abilities called "power boosts" in the instruction booklet. All of these items are held within blocks and must be jumped under to be released. It is not inherently apparent which block contain which power-ups, and breaking them does not grant Mario their abilities. He must touch the power-ups directly once they are expelled. Touching any power-up also awards Mario 1000 points. Forms that share a column look the same for Mario and Luigi.

When grabbed, Mario is transformed into Invincible Mario for thirty seconds. In this state, Mario is largely indestructible and defeats enemies on contact. Contact with the Starman does not wholly replace the form Mario was already in (i.e., Mario remains small if one is touched while in his regular form, and he can still toss fireballs if he is in his Fiery form.) Invincible Mario cannot be carried over to subsequent levels.

+{{main|List of Super Mario Bros. glitches}}
+===Minus World===
+[[File:SMB Minus World Intro Card.png|thumb|left|The Minus World entrance screen]]
+[[File:SMB Minus World.png|thumb|Minus World in the NES version]]
+{{main|Minus World}}
+The Minus World is an endless underwater level, identical to World 7-2, which is accessed through a programming glitch. There is no way to complete the level, as entering the pipe at the end will simply return Mario or Luigi to the one at the beginning. While there is no strategic advantage in performing this glitch, many find it intriguing. The glitch was removed in some remakes of the game, excluding the imports, the [[Virtual Console]] port, and ''[[Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros.]]'' The [[Family Computer Disk System]] release has a different Minus World with three levels that can be beaten, and once -3 is complete, the player will return to the title screen as if they had beaten the game.
+[[File:SMB How to Get to Minus World.gif|thumb|left|Mario goes through the wall and enters World -1]]
+To perform the glitch, Mario must go to World 1-2 and stand on top of the pipe that leads to the above-ground flag, without going in the pipe. Then he must break the second and third block from the pipe, but leave the one on the far right. Then he must stand on the left edge of the pipe (facing left) and duck. He then has to jump while in a ducking position and move right in mid-air (while still facing left). If done correctly, Mario will go through the block on the far right and the wall to the Warp Zone. Mario must then go through the pipe that would normally lead to World 2-1 or World 4-1, and Mario will enter the Minus World.
+If World 2-2 or 7-2 is edited in a ROM editor so that it is possible to beat it during the underwater segment, there is a World -2, an underwater version of 3-4. If World 3-4 is edited in a ROM editor, then there is a World -3. It is also a version of 3-4, but with overworld graphics; beating World -3 takes the player to World -4, a level which is just a blank screen.
+{{br}}
+===Over the flagpole===
+{{media table
+|file1=SMB W1-1 Glitch2.ogv
+|title1=Over the Flag Pole Glitch
+|description1=Video describing Over the Flagpole glitch in World 1-1, as well as some other glitches
+}}
+[[File:SMB W3-3 Glitch1.gif|thumb|Over the Flagpole glitch in World 3-3]]
+In some levels, it is possible to jump over the [[Goal Pole|flagpole]]. Beyond the flag pole is nothing but an endless path. There is nothing to do; all that can be done is wait for the timer to get to zero. To do this glitch in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]], right after the second pit, Mario needs to wait for the Koopa Troopa to about to fall into the pit and simultaneously jump at the top of the level right above the Koopa. After that, the Koopa will be stuck underneath the level, but the player will still be able to see it. When the Koopa starts to walk under the level, Mario should follow it to the end. Along the way, it is required to grab a Magic Mushroom. When the Koopa is halfway between the staircase and the flagpole, the player must do the glitch again and Mario will jump above the flagpole.
+To do this glitch in [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 3-3]], at the end of the level the player must stand on the last lift until another one has completely lifted, before falling off. After that, the player must accelerate as fast as possible and jump from the far edge of the lift. The lift should not lower while doing so.<ref>{{cite|url=www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm154709|title=神業（？）やり込み・マリオ裏技動画|publisher=Nicovideo|language=ja|date=April 15, 2007|author=おにくてゃん|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref>
+There is a brick right after the [[fortress]]'s or [[castle]]'s first door, which stops Mario from going past the Fortress at the end of the levels.
+In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', this is exploited to hide [[Warp Zone]]s. In worlds 3-1 and A-3, there are warp zones placed beyond the goals. In other worlds, while it is possible to go over the flagpole, the edge of the world is a few steps past the fortress, and the player is not able to go far enough for the flagpole to scroll off the screen.
+This glitch was fixed in the ''Super Mario All-Stars'' version.

+Development for ''Super Mario Bros.'' began after [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] and [[Takashi Tezuka]] finished two other games together beforehand: ''{{wp|Excitebike}}'' and ''{{wp|Devil World}}''. When designing ''Super Mario Bros.'', they wanted to use the scrolling screens of ''Excitebike'' and the large character sprites from ''Devil World'', to make ''Super Mario Bros.'' stand out from other titles. Miyamoto and Tezuka wanted to fit various technologies into the game, comparing it to a puzzle. The name "''Super Mario Bros.''" also came from [[Super Mario (form)|Mario's new Super form]].<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/20161111054427/http://www.nintendo.com/nes-classic/super-mario-bros-and-super-mario-bros-3-developer-interview|title=Developer Interview: Super Mario Bros. – Nintendo Entertainment System|publisher=NES Classic Edition – Official Site|language=en-us|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref>

+''Super Mario Bros.'' was developed at the same time as ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', and both shared numerous staff members: Miyamoto, Tezuka, Toshihiko Nakago, [[Koji Kondo]], Kazuaki Morita, Yasunari Nishida, and [[Hiroshi Yamauchi]]. According to the developers, some aspects of ''Super Mario Bros.'' were taken from ''The Legend of Zelda''; Fire-Bars were one example, as they were present in the dungeons in ''The Legend of Zelda''. Miyamoto implemented Fire-Bars into ''Super Mario Bros.'' as an obstacle.

+The main goal of ''Super Mario Bros.'' was to have a character travel through many lands with all different themes to each other and it would feature a diverse terrain, such as land, water, and sky. They also intended for the main character to be twice the size of the final one. At the beginning of developing the game, the placeholder playable character was a 16×32 pixel square.<ref>{{cite|author=rawmeatcowboy|url=gonintendo.com/?p=107550|title=Super Mario Bros. main character originally started out as...a huge square|date=December 11, 2009|publisher=Go Nintendo|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref> The square could not even jump and as a result, Tezuka suggested making Mario the playable character instead of the square due to the popularity of ''Mario Bros.'', which Miyamoto accepted.<ref name="Super Mario Square">{{cite|url=iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/wii/nsmb/1/3|title=It Started With A Square Object Moving|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref>

+Nakago and his team, Systems Research and Development (SRD), colored the background blue in some levels.<ref>{{cite|url=iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/wii/nsmb/0/3|title=Iwata Asks: New Super Mario Bros Wii|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref> This was unusual, because video games released during this time usually had a black background, to avoid eye-strain and to avoid getting distracted by the bright colors. After coloring the background blue in some levels, Nakago then started designing maps for this game. Miyamoto wanted the levels to be around a minute long and he told SRD to do so. He then realized that it usually takes about a second to travel across a screen and that numerous screens would have been implemented in one stage. SRD first thought that Miyamoto had requested them to make 60 screens per stage, but Miyamoto then explained that obstacles in each screen would slow down the player's progress, which resulted in an average of about 12 screens per level. The stage with the most screens has only 32, which is about half of what SRD had originally expected.
+When designing the stages themselves, because a level creating tool was not available to them at the time, Miyamoto and Tezuka would draw the levels on graph paper, and then Nakago and his team would design and program it into the game; if edits were to be made to the original drawings, a sheet of clear paper was placed over the original drawings.<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo of America|date=June 16, 2015|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/20150616195218/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPDPSezEkcY|title=Nintendo Digital Event @ E3 2015|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref> Nakago has stated that a lot of documents were sent to his team every day to change some aspects of stages. Every day, the group would do all they could do of what was stated in the documents and would work until 10 at night.
+In two Japanese interviews promoting ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', Miyamoto gave insight into the original background for the connection between the story of ''[[Mario Bros.

+The game was far more focused on action than platforming. The game was split between ground and sky segments, which had Mario shooting enemies. Mario could use weapons and the control scheme was different as a result, such as having the up arrow of the {{button|nes|Pad}} used as the jump button.
+==Reception and legacy==
+[[File:SMBStreet.jpg|thumb|The ''Super Mario Bros.'' Avenue in Zaragoza, Spain]]
+''Super Mario Bros.'' received critical acclaim and is considered one of the best games of all time. One of the most-praised aspects of the game is the precise controls, which allow players to control how far and high the characters jump and how fast they can run. The game popularized side-scrolling video games, and the game has since received several sequels and spin-offs, and many different ports and alternative versions. All characters, enemies, and items found in the game have become core elements of the ''Super Mario'' franchise and the plot of Bowser kidnapping the princess has continued to be used throughout the core ''Super Mario'' series.
+The game was placed 14th in the 100th issue of [[Nintendo Power]]'s "100 best Nintendo games of all time" in 1997.{{page needed}} It ranked the first spot in Electronic Gaming Monthly's ''"Greatest 200 Games of Their Time"'', named in IGN's top 100 games of all time lists in 2005 and 2007, and declared the second-best Mario game of all time. IGN also placed it 3rd in their Top 100 NES Games list.<ref>{{cite|url=www.ign.com/top-100-nes-games/3.html|title=3. Super Mario Bros. - Top 100 NES Games|publisher=IGN|language=en|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref>

It has received several other works such as ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' and the [[Super Mario Bros. (film)|''Super Mario Bros.'' film]].
+The game's impact on popular culture was so big that in 2010, a street in {{wp|Zaragoza|Zaragoza, Aragón (Spain)}}, was named after it, with a ceremony being held in celebration.<ref>{{cite|author=Gigazine|date=November 9, 2019|url=gigazine.net/gsc_news/en/20101109_mario_avenue|title="Super Mario Brothers Street" is born in Spain, pictures of Mario pleased at the commemoration ceremony|publisher=Gigazine|accessdate=May 31, 2024}}</ref>
