'''''Super Mario Bros.''''' ({{ja|スーパーマリオブラザーズ|Sūpā Mario Burazāzu}}, ''Super Mario Bros.''), sometimes referred to as '''''Super Mario''''' or '''''SMB''''', is a 1985 platforming video game for the {{s|nwiki|Nintendo Entertainment System}}. The plot is about a hero named [[Mario]], who goes on a journey to save [[Princess Peach]] from the clutches of the evil [[Bowser]], King of the Koopas, and restore peace to the land of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Having sold immensely well, as it held the record for the world's best-selling video game for almost three decades, ''Super Mario Bros.'' is famous for popularizing the side-scrolling genre and it has been remade and ported on many Nintendo consoles. It appears as a [[Masterpieces|Masterpiece]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and {{forwiiu}}.  In ''Brawl'', it can be played for 60 seconds and starts at the first level. In ''Smash Wii U'', it can be played for 180 seconds and starts at the title screen.

'''''Super Mario Bros.''''' ({{ja|スーパーマリオブラザーズ}}, ''Sūpā Mario Burazāzu''), sometimes referred to as '''''Super Mario''''' or '''''SMB''''', is a popular video game released in 1985 for the [[NWiki:Nintendo Entertainment System|Nintendo Entertainment System]]. The plot is about an Italian plumber named [[Mario]], who goes on a journey to save [[Princess Peach]] from the clutches of the evil [[Bowser]], King of the Koopas, and restore peace to the land of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].
===Fighters===
[[Princess Peach|Peach]], [[Bowser]], and [[Piranha Plant]] debuted in this game. Mario and Luigi have costumes that make them look like they obtained a [[Fire Flower]], an item that debuted in this game.


===Moves===
==[[Super Smash Bros. series]]==
Mario, Luigi, and Dr. Mario's [[up special move]], [[Super Jump Punch]], is based on the jumping animation from this game, and starting from ''Brawl'', the jump sound effect from this game plays during both their grounded and midair jumps. Mario and Luigi's [[neutral special move]], [[Fireball]], is based on the {{s|supermariowiki|Fire Mario}} power up. [[Toad]], a character that first appeared in this game, appears as [[Toad (move)|Peach's neutral special move]]. Bowser's [[Fire Breath]] move is based on his ability to breathe fire. Even though he first showed this ability in ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'', he could spit fireballs since this game. Additionally, one of his custom moves, Fire Shot, is based on his ability to spit fireballs in this game. His up special move, [[Whirling Fortress]], may be based on how {{b|Koopa|disambiguation}}s enter their shells when hit.
[[File:SMBMasterpiece.png|thumb|left|200px|Screenshot from the ''Masterpiece'' in ''Brawl''.]]
[[Mario]] and his brother [[Luigi]] were the only two characters representing their series in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', and have become staples in the games ever since. In addition, Bowser and Peach are playable in both ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.


===Stages===
In addition, many items from this game, namely the [[Super Mushroom]], the [[Fire Flower]], the [[Starman (item)|Starman]], the [[Springboard]], and the [[Green Shell|Green]] and [[Red Shell]]s made their first initial appearances in this game. Other characters and enemies, such as [[Toad]], [[Goomba]], [[Koopa Troopa]], etc. appeared in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series either as [[Trophy|trophies]], [[common enemies]], or parts of character's attacks.
Stages in [[Mushroom Kingdom (SSB)|''Smash 64'']], [[Mushroom Kingdom (SSBM)|''Melee'']], and [[Mushroomy Kingdom|''Brawl'']] are based on this game. The first two stages look similar to how the original game looks and even have the original music playing. Mushroomy Kingdom has two versions: one is a recreation of [[supermariowiki:World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]], and the other is a recreation of [[supermariowiki:World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]]. In addition, this game is the basis for one of the themes of the [[Super Mario Maker]] stage.


===Items===
Also, the [[Mushroom Kingdom (SSB)|Mushroom Kingdom stage]] in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and [[Mushroom Kingdom (SSBM)|Mushroom Kingdom]] stage in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' are based graphically on how they looked in ''Super Mario Bros.'' In addition, ''Brawl'''s [[Mushroomy Kingdom]] is based on the look of the game's World 1-1 and World 1-2.
Many items from this game, namely the [[Super Mushroom]], the Fire Flower, the [[Super Star]], and the [[Green Shell|Green]] and [[Red Shell]]s made their first appearances in this game. The Super Mushroom can be found in blocks and makes Mario and Luigi grow bigger. The Fire Flower can also be found in blocks. It changed Mario and Luigi's clothes, giving them the power to throw fireballs. The Super Star is another item that can be found in blocks, and makes Mario and Luigi invincible, also giving them the power to defeat enemies just by touching them. Green and Red shells can be obtained by defeating Koopas and are used to defeat enemies.


===Assist Trophies===
Additionally, Mario's outfit when [[SuperMarioWiki:Fire Mario|Fire Mario]] is present in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' as his white [[Palette swap (SSBB)|costume]]. Likewise, Luigi's outfit as [[SuperMarioWiki:Small Mario|Small]]/[[SuperMarioWiki:Super Mario|Super Luigi]] is present in ''SSB'' and ''Melee''. It is also in ''Brawl'', but it favors his Fire Luigi outfit in later games more. (In ''Super Mario Bros.'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Luigi and Mario share the same Fire colors.)
[[Lakitu and Spinies]] and [[Hammer Bro]] are both enemies in this game. Both of them appear as [[Assist Trophy|assist trophies]], and act the same way they do in this game. Lakitu and Spinies even retain their original 8-bit look.


===Enemies===
Mario also has a taunt appearing in all 3 games referencing this game; When Mario grows, he stands in the same stance (body facing towards player, with head turned 90 degrees) as he does in SMB.
Lots of enemies from this game appear as enemies in [[Adventure Mode]], [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary]] and [[Smash Run]]. These are [[Goomba]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s, {{b|Bullet Bill|enemy}}s, [[Bill Blaster]]s, Hammer Bros., Lakitus, and Spinies.


===Misc.===
In addition, the game's name may have inspired the name of the English versions of the ''Smash'' games.
Mario's taunt (up taunt in ''Brawl'' and ''SSB4'') in the first four ''Smash'' games references this game: he grows larger, then shrinks back to normal, all while standing in the same idle stance as he does in ''Super Mario Bros.'' ''SSB4'' even uses ''SMB'''s power-up and power-down sounds for the taunt.


The game's name may have inspired the name of the English versions of the ''Smash Bros.'' games.
''Super Mario Bros.'' is one of the selectable [[Masterpieces]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. <!--I guess we would post a full walkthrough of the Masterpiece-style trial version of this game for SmashWiki here.-->
 
Interestingly enough, the exact date of ''Super Mario Bros'''s original American release is [http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2012/03/the_mystery_of_the_super_mario_bros_us_release_date currently] [http://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/167392/sad_but_true_we_cant_prove_when_.php?print=1 unknown]; though several sources have made their estimates, there has been no credible evidence to verify them. The closest estimate comes from the [[Chronicle]] in ''Brawl'', which pinpoints the release date at October of 1985.
