The simple game should have sequels apart from Super Mario Bros. The basic competition or cooperation aspect has been brought to the NEW SMBs but I would also like the Mario Clash-style games for more family fun.

In one of the live action segments of the SMB Super Show there is a part where Mario as played by Captain Lou actually introduces himself as "Mario Mario" and this would have been years before the movie.

Great video, really enjoyed that. I actually think Mario Bros might just be my favourite game ever. I loved it myself as a teenager nearly 40 years ago (both in my local arcade and on my C64) but in recent years it became the game of choice for me and my daughter, who is now 13. We've been playing it for years together since she was about 5 and it's still now the first game we go to if we visit a retro arcade as there's nothing like playing on an original cab. There's something about the two player mechanics that mean it's the arcade game that makes us both laugh the most - getting in each other's way, bouncing the other playing into enemies accidentally etc., it's just a really silly and fun game.

Another great video! Brought back many great memories. The original Mario Bros arcade game is probably one of my all-time favorite games. My local corner convenience store had the cabinet and I'd always play it. I loved it cause the sound was turned up, and the cabinet had great speakers (great sounding bass, etc). Just an FYI, I believe when you were showing your MAME footage, you're missing some sound samples. There's a sound sample file you can grab which adds them back in (particularly the sound when Mario/Luigi's moving/running, etc). The sound adds a lot to the experience of the game. I love the GBA version as well, and it's great to play on the Wii U Virtual Console (on the TV!). Probably one of my favorite versions, only wish I could play local coop on the same screen (the original GBA supported link up cable via 2 GBAs for multiplayer). It's great that the Switch has an Arcade Archives version, and the Virtual Console (NES) version for the 3DS is awesome cause you can game share AND then play local coop with 2 3DSes over local wireless. Wish the Switch version did the same!

I played Mario Bros. at a Mazzio's Pizza back in the mid 80's through the early 90's. It sat right next to Data East's Shoot Out. I bought the Atari 2600 version at our local Venture Store (same place I got Solaris, Millipede, and Kangaroo).

Let's face it these games are over 30 years old and would be big sellers in the home arcade cabinet market. Imagine all of Nintendo's games lines that could be produced.

I had Mario Bros for my hand-me-down Atari 2600, my friend had the NES one. Even as a little kid, I always thought the "wafers" were a weird touch. Certainly they could have just made a squared off gold shape and called it a coin, but I think the programmers just wanted to play around with some color function. And small correction, the last name "Mario" actually premiered back on the live action segment of an episode of Super Mario Bros Super Show. Luigi got a certificate to get one free dance lesson from Shabbadoo (!) and "Luigi Mario" was on the certificate. I'm sure they used that Mario last name in another episode, but I can't remember quite off the top of my head where.
