Super Mario Bros. 35

Template:Infobox Super Mario Bros. 35 is a 2D platformer and battle royale game for the Nintendo Switch created to celebrate the Super Mario Bros. series' 35th anniversary. It is exclusively available to Nintendo Switch Online members and released on October 1, 2020. This game, along with Super Mario 3D All-Stars and Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros., is available until March 31, 2021. The game's battle royale mechanics are similar to Tetris 99, another game only available to Nintendo Switch Online members.

Playing a round before March 31, 2021 is one of the 35th Anniversary site My Nintendo missions to be completed, though it does not actually register until a week after playing at the latest.

• left, right or leftstick - Move Mario/Luigi
• B or A - Jump
• Y or B - Run
• leftstick or left, right, up, down or Touch Screen - Move target
• rightstick or R - Choose a random target, attack those attacking the player, those with the most coins, or those with the lowest remaining time
• X or L - Use item roulette

The game has rumble support.

Gameplay

Fire Mario in World 5-2, featuring enemies which have been sent over by other players.

Super Mario Bros. 35 is a battle royale where 35 players compete against each other until only a single player is left. In the menu, the player can play a normal game or a special event, if any, along with changing their icon, which is gained by leveling up. Leveling up is earned by obtaining experience points from playing levels.

During a game, players go through levels from Super Mario Bros. Enemies defeated will be sent over to a different player's course. The player can see other players' games. The course the enemies are sent to is determined by which course the player is currently targeting, which is surrounded by a red box. The player can choose between four strategies to determine how they target other players. Other player's enemies can also be sent to the player. On the top-left corner of the screen is the Item Roulette which costs 20 coins to use. Using it gives the player a random item, which can be a Super Mushroom, a Fire Flower, a Super Star, or a POW Block (which defeats all enemies on the screen). The player also has a Time Limit displayed on the top-right corner of their screen. Defeating enemies gives the player more time, up to a maximum of 400 seconds. If the player is the last alive, they win the game. At the end of a game the player's name, rank, number of coins collected, and the number of other players they knocked out, are displayed. The player can also spectate the match after being defeated.

Courses

In a regular 35-Player Battle, the player can pick a course and pay coins to start the game with a power-up. These courses are added to the pool of courses that appear in the battle. To unlock more courses to pick, the player must either complete all of the preceding levels in one of the online modes or beat the course itself when it is chosen by another player who already unlocked it or it appears in a Special Battle. The course order will use each players' chosen course, going from whoever has the lowest level to the highest. However, the course order will not put the same course twice in a row. The course order loops to the first level after the last level. This is the only way a course can repeat.

Warp Zones let the player skip forward in the level queue. Warp Zones may include the same level that the Warp Zone is located in, letting the player use Warp Zones again. In World 1-2, the pipes of the warp zone from right to left skip one, two, and three courses respectively. In World 4-2, the single pipe at the end of the main area skips one course, while the overworld Warp Zone pipes from right to left skip one, two, and three courses respectively.

In Special Battle, limited-time events are held where players play through a set order of courses with special conditions, such as starting with 100 coins. The battle can start in any course.

Items

Coin		Can be used for the Item Roulette.
Super Mushroom		Gives the Super form, or 15 seconds on the timer if already in that form. Defeating enemies by bouncing on them gives 2 or 3 seconds on the timer based on the type, bouncing on Buzzy Beetles give 4, and bouncing on Hammer Bros and Lakitus give 5.
Fire Flower		Gives the ability to shoot fireballs, or 15 seconds on the timer if already in that form. Defeating Bowser with fireballs will give the player 5 seconds on the timer, defeating Hammer Bros and Lakitus will give the player 2, while all other enemies give 1.
Super Star		Gives invincibility for a short period of time, and resets the period of invincibility if the player is already under the effects of a Super Star. Each defeated enemy gives 2 seconds on the timer, and if the player defeats several enemies without stopping, the amount of seconds given will increase more.
1-Up Mushroom		Gives 20 coins.
POW Block		Defeats all enemies on-screen. Defeated Goombas give 2 seconds on the timer, while stronger enemies like Koopa Troopas give 3, while Buzzy Beetles give 4, Lava Bubbles, Hammer Bros and Lakitus give 5, and Bowsers give 10.

Characters

Playable characters

• Mario
• Luigi - Luigi is playable by holding L while selecting a course or selecting Special Battle. Luigi is only playable after every course is cleared at least once.

Cameos

• Princess Peach - Only appears as an icon
• Toads - Only appears as an icon

Enemies

The enemies are the same as in Super Mario Bros. (except fake Bowsers do not appear) and mostly retain their behavior. Every defeated enemy is transferred to the targeted player's enemy queue. This queue is visible at the bottom of the screen. Enemies only appear in the game world as the player moves forward to scroll them into view. An enemy sent by another player appears with a white tinted sprite; however, it behaves exactly like a natural enemy, including the ability to send it to other players. When a player enters a bonus area, the enemy queue is instantly cleared, and any enemies sent while in the bonus area are removed as well.

Enemies that have multiple identical-looking variants (e.g. Green Koopa Paratroopa and Bowser) will have the correct variant appear for the target player. Enemies of the same kind with different behavior will retain their behavior, like Bowsers that throw hammers, for example. Enemies that can be bounced on and then further interacted with (all the shelled enemies) will be transferred and award time on the first bounce, any further interaction with that same enemy will not cause them to be transferred again or award more time, thus also avoiding the "infinite 1-Ups trick" (which in this game would translate into an infinite time trick).

Name	Sprite	Notes
Blooper		When transferred to a non-water level, it will still behave as if it was swimming in the water, effectively floating, and can be stomped, as in Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. (This mechanic exists in the Super Mario Bros. engine, but does not appear outside glitch levels.)
Bowser		There are no fake Bowsers in this game. Kicking a shell into Bowser will defeat both the shell and Bowser. Bowser can not be defeated from below when he is standing on a Brick Block or ? Block. Transferred Bowsers throw hammers if they are from World 6-4 and later.
Bullet Bill		When transferred, it will come in from the right side of the screen.
Buzzy Beetle
Cheep Cheep		Has the jumping behavior in non-water levels and the swimming behavior in water levels. It changes behavior if transferred to the other type of level.
Goomba
Hammer Bro
Koopa Paratroopa
Koopa Troopa
Lakitu		If multiple Lakitus are transferred to the same player, they may spawn at different altitudes.
Lava Bubble		Can be defeated with a shell, Super Star, or POW Block.
Piranha Plant		When transferred, they always appear on the ground and don't retract even if they happen to be on the top of a pipe.
Spiny		Spinies can be transferred independently of Lakitus.

The following cannot be defeated:

Fire Bar
Bill Blaster		Even though it is indestructible, it appears on the enemy bar.

Changes from Super Mario Bros.

It has been requested that at least one image be uploaded for this section. Remove this notice only after the image(s) have been added. Specific(s): Some examples of stage layout being modified

Super Mario Bros. 35 is based on the NTSC version of Super Mario Bros. Generally, many physics and other mechanics have been altered to fall more in line with newer Mario games, similarly to Super Mario Maker; some examples as follows:

• If Fire Mario takes damage, he reverts to Super Mario instead of Small Mario, as in the international NES and Super Mario All-Stars versions of Super Mario Bros. 3, as well as Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 onward.
  • Similarly, if a Fire Flower is grabbed as Small Mario, he will go straight to Fire Mario, as in Super Mario World and later games, instead of only growing to Super Mario like in the original. If the powerup has no effect due to Mario already being in the resulting state or higher, it awards 15 seconds on the timer instead.
• Since lives are no longer present, 1-Up Mushrooms now award 20 coins. The coin counter extends to at least four digits.
  • 1-Up Mushrooms needing conditions to appear are now always available.
• Bouncing off an enemy while holding the jump button will cause Mario to bounce very high, like in Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels and later games.
  • Similarly, the "Super Jump" introduced in Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels has been added. Stomping the top of an enemy while moving upwards at the right trajectory will cause Mario to soar very high.
    • Sometimes when super jumping off of a Koopa Troopa or Koopa Paratroopa, they will instantly enter their shell and get kicked sideways.
• Enemies now interact with trampolines, similarly to Super Mario Maker. This is most visible at the end of World 2-1, where enemies may drop from the tall wall of solid blocks and fall on the trampoline. Mario's general physics while interacting with a trampoline are much smoother, akin to other recent platformers.
• Stompable enemies that are transferred to underwater levels are now stompable underwater, like in Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3.
• The mechanic that pushes Mario out of a solid block has been removed; instead, they act like in Super Mario Bros. 3 onward: If Super/Fire Mario stops in a 1-tall space (or powers up from Small Mario while in one), he will continue to crouch. If the blocks above are Brick Blocks, he can jump and break them, but even if they are solid blocks, he can make small hops to eventually escape.
• The level-ending transitions are shortened. The player moves to the next course after Mario reaches the flagpole or after the bridge collapses from picking up the axe. The cutscenes with Toads and Princess Peach no longer appear, although they cameo in the game's icons.
  • However, bridges now collapse in castles when Bowser is defeated before touching the axe.
• The block portion of Fire Bars no longer damages Mario, but instead acts as if he hit a solid block.
• Mario has a proper animation for entering the pipe at the end of an underwater level, instead of simply vanishing as he did in the original game.
• When going down a pipe, Mario always crouches, it is no longer possible to "walk" or "slide" down into a pipe.
• If Mario passes a Hammer Bro. without defeating it, it will begin to chase after him. Hammer Bros. jump more often.
• Almost every glitch from Super Mario Bros. has been fixed. This includes Minus World, Over the Flagpole (there is an invisible wall above the flagpole), Die and Complete Simultaneously, Disappearing Power-Ups (multiple power-ups can appear on screen), Harmless Enemy (Mario will take damage while inside enemies after post-damage invincibility), Hit the Axe and Keep It There, Invisible Piranha Plant (the Piranha Plant has been removed entirely), Stuck Underwater (Mario's hitbox no longer shrinks after crouching underwater, and even if he powers up via the Item Roulette in the 1-block high space he can escape by hopping), Walking Through Walls, Wall Jump, and Wrong Warp. However, a few of them have been retained, as detailed in the Glitches section.
• Bowser's flame hitbox has been increased from just covering the front tip to covering its entire length.
• Enemies no longer turn around off of the defeated bodies of other enemies.
• The fake Bowsers are all replaced by the real Bowser.
• Due to the Nintendo Switch's more powerful hardware, enemies will not despawn if there are too many.
• In World 8-4, the Piranha Plant in the pipe that takes Mario to the second room will not despawn when Mario reaches it, like in Super Mario All-Stars.
• Like in Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Bros. Deluxe, an error buzzer sound will be played if Mario goes the wrong way in a castle maze.
• Climbing up vines is fully manual instead of automatic past a certain point up the vine, letting players use the vine longer.
• Getting carried off the top of the screen by a moving platform will make Mario drop down instead of dying, like in Super Mario All-Stars.
• With enough forward momentum, Mario will enter sideways pipes regardless of whether the player holds forward or not.
• Mario cannot defeat enemies by stomping low on their body while moving downwards.
• The Goomba that starts above the second Coin Block in World 1-2 starts on the ground.
• Koopa Troopa shells can break Brick Blocks and trigger blocks containing items.
• Fire Bars will not despawn once they are at the left edge of the screen.
• Mario's top running speed is slightly slower.
  • In World 4-1's coin room, which reappears as the second coin room in World 6-2, a Brick Block containing a power-up is one block above the exit pipe. Super Mario and Fire Mario are no longer able to reach the spot under it by crouching and sliding off the row of Brick Blocks to the left of it as a results of their slower speed.
• After exiting the bonus area in World 1-1, the two Goombas do not appear.
• After exiting the bonus area in World 5-1, the first Koopa Paratroopa does not appear.
• Fireballs bounce lower to the ground, allowing them to hit enemies on the ground easier.
• Mario can use fireballs at the top of the screen.
• Lakitus do not stop following Mario, making it possible for multiple Lakitus to pursue Mario.
• Mario can crouch if down is pressed at the same time or after a side direction is pressed.
• Mario will stand up if left or right is pressed while crouching.
• Super Stars will pop out of blocks instead of dropping down.
• Mario can collect coins from the side when a block is above it, e.g. walking into the block above the coins in World 2-4.
• Mario does not accelerate faster when moving backwards.
• Bulllet Bills fire at a slower rate on World 5-3 and World 6-3.
• Mario cannot flip to the opposite side when grabbing vines.

Coin Ranking

Coin Ranking is unlocked by winning one battle. Coin Ranking is a competition each week where players are ranked by their highest number of coins in a battle in both 35-Player Battle and Special Battle. Players must win one battle again to be ranked each week in each mode. Players receive a grade based on their rank, with S grade at the top and A through E following it. The top 100 players of the week are listed with their coin scores on online leaderboards. The leaderboards and Results Graph are only shown for the ten most recent weeks. The players' coin score is the sum of the coins collected during the game, coins collected from the chest, and a Rank Bonus. That sum is doubled by the Small Mario Bonus if the player starts without an item. Special Battle has no Small Mario Bonus.

Super Mario Bros. 35 World Count Challenge

Super Mario Bros. 35 World Count Challenge is an event that was announced on January 12, 2021 along with new details about Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. Players from around the world will work together to complete goals within a certain time frame. The event is being held monthly, three times from January to March 2021.

In the first Super Mario Bros. 35 World Count Challenge, players worked together to defeat 3.5 million Bowsers from January 18, 2021 at 11 p.m. PT to January 25, 2021 at 10:59 p.m. PT. In addition to 35-Player Battle, the Special Battle that week lasted all seven days of the event and featured courses with additional opportunities to battle with Bowser. If the total Bowsers defeated around the world reached 3.5 million, the players who defeated at least one Bowser would be eligible to receive 350 My Nintendo Platinum Points. The goal was reached with 5,363,696 Bowsers defeated.

Icons of various Super Mario Bros. characters and objects can be unlocked by leveling up, with 64 icons in total. Players start with standing Small Mario, a Brick Block, a Super Mushroom, and a Goomba as their only icons.

Reception

Reviews
Release	Reviewer, Publication	Score	Comment
Nintendo Switch	Chris Carter, Destructoid	7/10	"There's plenty to criticize, but Super Mario Bros. 35 is a free download, so give it a shot. I've played many rounds already and will jump into plenty more until that fated March 2021 eShop removal death date. Hopefully Nintendo has a change of heart like they did with Jump Rope Challenge and updates the game to address some of its shortcomings: because it has even more potential than a temporary flight of fancy."
Nintendo Switch	Seth Macy, IGN	7/10	"Super Mario Bros. 35 is an extremely fun twist on the classic platformer and the battle royale formula with plenty to love, although it starts to lose its luster after just a few hours because repeating level 1-1 and a handful of other early levels becomes a chore. But before that happens, developing a winning strategy, perfecting each jump, and knowing just where and when to send your defeated enemies is a satisfying mental juggling act, and winning is a truly special feeling indeed."
Nintendo Switch	Chris Scullion, Nintendo Life	8/10	"Super Mario Bros. 35 gives Nintendo's most iconic game a jolt of life and it's massively welcome. Its matches could do with being a little shorter and it's difficult to see whether it's actually going to have changed much a few months down the line, but it says a lot about the quality of the experience that the biggest problem we have with it is that come April 2021 it won't exist anymore."

Glitches

• The glitch to jump in midair from Super Mario Bros. is retained. When the player obtains a Super Mushroom or Fire Flower in midair and presses A while Mario is transforming, he will jump in midair. This works with the Super Mushroom and Fire Flower from the Item Roulette.
• Like Super Mario Bros., jumping into the bottom corner of a ? Block with a power-up on top of it in a specific way causes Mario to get powered up from underneath the block. However, it is much rarer in Super Mario Bros. 35.
• Touching a Super Mushroom and an enemy at the same time causes Mario's lower half to briefly clip into the ground before reverting to Small Mario.
  • Taking damage as Super Mario then shortly after powering up back to Super Mario will make Mario flash between Small Mario and Super Mario, which can make him wall through thin bridges.
  • If Small Mario touches a Super Mushroom while getting a Fire Flower in the Item Roulette, he will be briefly look like Small Mario with Fire Mario's color palette and his lower half will briefly clip into the ground.
• Dying as Small Mario and getting a Super Mushroom in the Item Roulette at the same time makes Mario's sprite grow to Super Mario, then move up and down like the death animation. Small Mario can also die while being Invincible Mario from the Item Roulette if hit at the same time.
• Before it was fixed in version 1.0.2, if the player pressed a direction and A during the same frame, they would be able to advance to a stage adjacent to an unlocked level without unlocking it yet. If that stage was cleared, the player would unlock it.
