The player takes the role of Mario, or in the case of a second player, Mario's brother Luigi. is a Fictional character created by game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. is a Video game character created by Nintendo 's game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. [3] The object is to race through the Mushroom Kingdom, evade or eliminate Bowser's forces and save Princess Peach. The Mario series is a series of highly popular and acclaimed Platform games by Nintendo, featuring Nintendo's mascot Mario and in most of the Bowser, also known as King Koopa, is a Video game character and the main antagonist of Nintendo 's ''Mario'' series. This article is about the princess from the Mario series For the video game starring her see Super Princess Peach. [4] Mario or Luigi can be hurt if either touches an enemy. If he takes a hit as regular Mario, falls down a pit (regardless of status), or the time clock runs out, he loses a life and starts again. [5] The point where Mario continues from after losing a life depends on how far he ran through the level before dying: either from the very beginning or at an invisible "checkpoint" partway through the level. [6] There are no checkpoints in castles or in world 8, the final world. The Mario Brothers' primary attack is simply jumping on top of ("Stomping") their enemies, which kills the mushroom traitors, known as Goombas,[7] and sends the turtle soldiers, known as Koopa Troopas, into their shells. This is a list of enemies in the ''Mario'' series of Video games Blooper Bloopers ( in Japanese originally known in English as Bloobers This is a list of enemies in the ''Mario'' series of Video games Blooper Bloopers ( in Japanese originally known in English as Bloobers [8] Mario and Luigi can then kick these shells into other enemies, who will be defeated as a result. Conversely, kicked shells can bounce back off of walls or other vertical obstructions and hit Mario or Luigi, causing him to lose a life. [9] Some enemies cannot be defeated by stomping; these enemies can only be defeated by turtle shell or fireball as stomping them will hurt the Mario Bros. [10] Jumping on enough enemies in succession or kicking a shell into enough enemies in succession (combos) results in double points earned with each enemy defeated, eventually earning Mario or Luigi a 1-up (an extra life). [11] Mario and Luigi can also obtain 1-ups through finding 1-up mushrooms or by collecting 100 coins. [12]

Aiding the Mario Brothers in their quest are several powers. If Mario or Luigi collect a mushroom, they will be able to take two hits before losing a life. Collecting a fire flower grants the ability to throw fireballs, however Mario's maximum tolerance for hits remains two (the player does not, as in future games, revert to any preceding form of Super Mario, but only to his original pre-mushroom state). [13] Mario or Luigi can also collect a Starman and become invincible for a limited amount of time. [13] Invincible Mario or Luigi is impervious to the touch of enemy characters and most obstacles and he can simply run into enemies to defeat them. He will still die, however, if he falls in a pit, falls into lava, or if time runs out.

The game consists of eight worlds with four levels in each world. [4] Though each world is different, the fourth sub-world is always a fortress or castle. At the end of each castle level, Mario or Luigi fights Bowser, however if one of the brothers throws five fireballs at Bowser, it is revealed that he is actually a different enemy in disguise. [14] In the later worlds (worlds 6 to 8), Bowser throws hammers as well as occasional jets of fire breath. A hammer is a tool meant to deliver an impact to an object The most common uses are for driving nails fitting parts and breaking up objects [14] Bowser may be defeated in one of two ways: either by touching the axe at the edge of the bridge (thereby dropping him into the lava) or, as Fire Mario or Luigi, throwing fireballs at him to defeat him directly. The latter is the only way to receive points for the Koopa King's defeat. [15] At the end of each world except the last, Mario or Luigi is greeted with the words "Thank you Mario [or Luigi]! But our princess is in another castle!" spoken by a Mushroom Retainer. is a humanoid Mushroom in games of Nintendo's Mario series Toad is the general collective name of the " Mushroom People " found in the [16]

After winning the game, the player is given the option to start the game again in "'Hard' Mode",[17] where all Goombas are replaced by Buzzy Beetles (Koopa Troopa-like enemies who cannot be killed by fireballs) and all enemies' walking speed is increased. This is a list of enemies in the ''Mario'' series of Video games Blooper Bloopers ( in Japanese originally known in English as Bloobers [17] In addition, the elevator-style lifts are about 60% their original size throughout. [17] There are also an increased number of hazards in the earlier worlds. For example, in World 1-3 random Bullet Bills fly across the screen, a danger that normally only appears in certain later levels, such as World 5-3. [17]

Players may get to the beginning of any world with a relatively small amount of effort by using hidden warp zones in a number of levels. One is in level 1-2 and is reached by walking on the blocks at the top of the level passing the exit pipe. This zone allows Mario to skip to worlds 2, 3 and 4. The other two are in 4-2; one is reached in the same manner as the one in 1-2 but this only allows access to world 5. The other is reached through a beanstalk, and allows the player to skip ahead to worlds 6, 7, and 8. [18]

Music

Koji Kondo wrote the musical score for Super Mario Bros. is a Japanese Composer and Musician best known for his scores for various Video games produced by Nintendo. [19] There are four main themes used in the original game:[20]

The Minus World

The Minus World is a well-known glitch in Super Mario Bros. By passing through a solid wall near the World 1-2 exit due to a glitch, it is possible to travel to "World -1",[21] also known as the "Minus World" or "World Negative One" and considered by the game to be "world 36. A glitch is a short-lived Fault in a system The term is particularly common in the Computing and Electronics industries and in Circuit bending " This stage is identical to Worlds 2-2 and 7-2, but upon entering the warp pipe at the end, the player is taken back to the start of the level. Exploiting the same glitch in the Japanese Famicom Disk System is considerably different and has three levels, after which the player is returned to the title screen as though he or she completed the game. The was released on February 21, 1986 by Nintendo as a peripheral for the Family Computer ("Famicom" console in Japan. [22] This glitch was fixed in the Super Mario All-Stars remake[23] as well as in Super Mario Bros. Deluxe. [21] Most later versions of the game are identical to the original, and thus include the glitch.

Alternate versions

As one of Nintendo's most popular games, Super Mario Bros. has been re-released and remade numerous times, ranging from an arcade version released soon after the original NES release, to the game being available for download on the Wii's Virtual Console. Virtual Console, sometimes abbreviated as VC, is a specialized section of the Wii Shop Channel, an online service that allows players to purchase and download

[22]

Vs. Super Mario Bros.

One alternate version, Vs. Super Mario Bros. (originally called Vs. Mario's Adventure),[26] is nearly a separate game in its own right. This game, one of several games made for Nintendo's NES-based arcade cabinet, the Nintendo Vs. Unisystem (and its variant, the Nintendo Vs. An arcade cabinet, also known as an arcade machine or coin-op, is the housing within which an Arcade game 's Hardware resides The Nintendo Vs Series (for "versus" was a series of arcade Video games designed for two-player competitive play using the VS Dualsystem), is based on Super Mario Bros. , and has identical gameplay. The stages, however, are different; the early stages are subtly different, with small differences like the omission of 1-up mushrooms or other hidden items, but later stages are changed entirely. These changes have a net effect of making Vs. Super Mario Bros. much more difficult than the original Super Mario Bros. [27] Many of these later, changed stages reappeared in the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2. Super Mario Bros The Lost Levels, known in Japan as, is a platformer Video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Famicom Disk

Players can alternate between Mario and Luigi by pressing select on the map screen. [35]

Reception and legacy

Super Mario Bros. popularized the side scrolling genre of video games and led to many sequels in the series that built upon the same basic premise. Almost all of the game's aspects have been praised at one time or another, from its large cast of characters to a diverse set of levels. One of the most-praised aspects of the game is the precise controls. The player is able to control how high and far Mario or Luigi jumps, and how fast he can run. [36] The music, especially the Overworld theme, has also become one of the most recognizable pieces of music in the world. In 1992, music from Super Mario Bros. was sampled by the Ambassadors of Funk for their songs Supermario Brothers Theme and Mario Theme. Both songs were included on the album Super Mario Compact Disco. Super Mario Compact Disco is an album released in Japan on August 1, 1993.
