Mario Bros. (NES)
This video was captured using the actual game on an actual Nintendo.
Super Mario Bros. is such a gigantic franchise that has so many installments on every Nintendo console and hand held that this game is often forgotten. Most are already aware that Donkey Kong is where Mario got his start. Though he was named "Jump Man" back in the Donkey Kong days, the character was obviously the one we know today as Mario. So when people think of Mario these days, they often think of Donkey Kong and Super Mario Brothers. So does anyone ever wonder what Mario was before he was super?
This is simply Mario Brothers. Originally a Nintendo arcade that got a very close port to the NES. For some reason they decided to change some of the hilarious sound effects and animations from the arcade. I can only speculate that it could have been for mild violence perhaps? When you got bit by a turtle you would see the turtle actually bite you with his teeth and hear a distinct "crunch" sound. Still it is a great game despite what they removed from the original arcade version.
As you can see Mario Brothers plays nothing like Super Mario Brothers at all. The stages are all stationary and get more difficult as the levels progress. Me not having a whole lot of practice didn't make it very far. It's great old school fun.
