Super Mario Bros
The Super Mario Bros are one of the most recognizable pairs of video game characters ever created by Nintendo. When the first Nintendo came out in the mid 1980’s it was of course a huge success, but not right away. The very first Nintendo games didn’t immediately stand out from other games on the market for the already successful systems like the Atari 2600. It wasn’t until they released the game ‘Super Mario Bros’ that the full potential and capability of Nintendo’s first console system was realized, and only then did it become an icon of 1980s entertainment.
Realizing what a huge success the first Super Mario Bros game was, Nintendo soon began including the game as part of the package when you bought the system. When I first got my Nintendo Entertainment System, it came with the Super Mario Bros game and I was in video game heaven. Having been an avid fan of the Atari, I was dumbfounded by the graphical and audio improvements seen in the Nintendo. More than the better graphics and sounds, the sheer size and scope of the Super Mario Bros game was what really made the Nintendo stand out. Atari games had all been extremely short with very little depth, but the Super Mario Bros game just kept going and going.
Super Mario Bros games are still coming out today for the more current Nintendo systems, like the ‘Gamecube’ and the ‘N64’. Indeed, the Super Mario Bros are symbols for Nintendo systems, and have probably done more to bring in business for the Japan based company than any other advertising campaign they’ve ever come up with. Just putting the Super Mario Bros into a game somehow is almost a guaranteed way to make sure the game sells well. It’s no surprise then that there are so many variants of Mario Bros games out there now.
One of my favorite more recent Super Mario Bros games is the Mario Kart series. These games are fun because they are designed to be played against other players at the same time. You could play the original Super Mario Brothers games with more than one player, but not simultaneously, so you were always waiting for your friend to die so you could have your turn. The Mario Kart games are fun because you can play with several players and compete in a away that isn’t too serious, which keeps the mood friendly.
