About this deal

Super Mario Land is the first Super Mario game not developed by Nintendo EAD but rather its partner division: Nintendo R&D1. The game features a similar aesthetic and gameplay to Super Mario Bros., adapting it to the limited technology of the Game Boy at the time. The game is set in the land of Sarasaland and has Mario venture through its four kingdoms to rescue its ruler, Princess Daisy, from the clutches of the evil alien Tatanga. This game is unique in that it features auto-scrolling shooting sections where Mario rides a submarine or a plane. These original games are related to the Super Mario series while not officially being considered part of it. Many of them feature the adventures of characters other than Mario, sometimes leading into their own series. An important case is that of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, considered by Shigeru Miyamoto as part of the core Super Mario franchise in an interview published in 2012. [7] Title Alongside Toadette, Peachette also appears as a playable character. The Pink Mushmellow, a kart first obtainable in the 2019 Paris Tour, is based off of her. Toadette has her own cup that rotates in and out of tours, boosting Toadette up one tier on its courses; however, this does not boost any of her variants. She was one of the team representatives in the Toad vs. Toadette Tour. Goo-Goo Buggy • Rattle Buggy • Toad Kart • Toadette Kart • Koopa Dasher • Para-Wing • Barrel Train • Bullet Blaster Super Mario Bros. Deluxe is a Game Boy Color remake which includes the first two Super Mario games ever released: Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels (that last under the name of Super Mario Bros. for Super Players). Besides those games, it also featured many other collectibles, including images that could be printed with the Game Boy Printer, Cable Link interface multi-player, records sharing by infrared connection, a calendar, a fortune teller, etc. Unlike other remakes, it was not developed by Nintendo EAD, but rather by Nintendo R&D2.

Owing to the Western branches of Nintendo feeling that the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2 was too similar to the first game and too difficult for American players, the company instead chose to port the Japanese game Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and release it as Super Mario Bros. 2 in the company's markets for the NES. New species first appear in this game, including Albatoss and Shy Guys, and it introduces Wart and Birdo. Super Mario Bros. 2 is also the first game to feature four distinctly playable characters, as Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Toad have to save the dream world of Subcon from Wart. After fighting their way through seven strange worlds, they eventually save Subcon, and Mario wakes up from his dream.

Illumination (December 8, 2022). The Super Mario Bros. Movie | “Mushroom Kingdom” | Official Movie Clip. YouTube. Retrieved December 8, 2022. Super Mario Bros. Special is a game made by Hudson Soft and licensed by Nintendo for the NEC PC-8801 and Sharp X1 series of Japanese PCs, and later released in South Korea for the Samsung SPC-1500 in 1987. Super Mario Bros. Special is the second sequel to Super Mario Bros., released a few months after Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels in 1986. While superficially very similar to the original Super Mario Bros., the game features original levels but scrolls screen-by-screen rather than smoothly. Jumping and running physics also differ from the original, providing a more challenging experience than Super Mario Bros. Due to the computers' technology being slightly inferior to that of the NES/Famicom, the graphics and audio differ from the original NES game as well, with the X1 utilising more colors and smoother scrolling than the PC-88, and does not include Luigi or a multiplayer mode. A port of Wii U's Super Mario Maker released in 2015, Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS was released on December 2, 2016. Despite being a Nintendo 3DS title, the game does not support stereoscopic 3D, and gameplay is, therefore, strictly available in 2D. Due to hardware limitations for the 3DS, players can no longer share their levels online, and other elements from the Wii U version, like the Mystery Mushrooms and amiibo compatibility, have been removed. The game features Super Mario Challenge, a single player mode with 100 pre-installed courses designed by Nintendo, with medal objectives included for each course. Bowser Jr. is Bowser's son and first appears as the main antagonist in Super Mario Sunshine where he took the persona of Shadow Mario. He has then appeared throughout the Super Mario series as one of the main bosses. He kidnapped Princess Peach who he thought she was his mother. He is the heir to the Koopa throne.

In some games, the cloud can be ridden in after they are defeated. New Super Mario Bros. is the tenth installment in the Super Mario series. It starts out when Bowser Jr. kidnaps Peach during a strange accident. Luigi is playable in this game as well. Luigi was not playable since Super Mario World. This is the first game since Super Mario World that features the classic 2D playstyle of the Super Mario Bros. games, substantially building upon it to create gameplay both classic and contemporary. The game features a solo story mode with Mario or Luigi, a two-player wireless game called Mario vs. Luigi, and a minigame mode for up to four players. It introduced various enemies and obstacles to the franchise alongside new power-ups: the Mega Mushroom, Mini Mushroom, and Blue Shell. It was released in 2006 for the Nintendo DS. It spiraled an indirect follow-up, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, and, later, a direct sequel, New Super Mario Bros. 2, alongside another indirect follow-up, New Super Mario Bros. U.

In 1986, one year after the release of Nintendo's first biggest commercial success, the company released a simplified version of the game on their Game & Watch system. It essentially has the same plot, reduced down to only eight levels; however, after beating every level, they will have to be repeated. Mario will have to go through nine loops, avoiding Lakitus and Bullet Bills, each time with the levels increasing in difficulty. There are also two types of levels: scroll screen levels, in which Mario will have to reach a certain point to advance, and timer screen levels, in which Mario must get through the world in a given amount of time. Additionally, another difference between the original and this remake is that Mario will find Princess Toadstool at the end of every level, without having to fight a boss. Subcons are peaceful fairy-like folk in Super Mario Bros. 2. They reside in and protect the dream world, Subcon. Super Mario 3D Land is the fifth 3D game in the series and the fourteenth game overall. Super Mario 3D Land is a hybrid game described as a "3D game that plays like a 2D game," and therefore its levels are much more linear and compact than in the other 3D titles, more along the lines of the side-scrolling games. Many retro power-ups and characters return, such as the Super Leaf and Boom Boom. New power-ups are also introduced, such as Boomerang Mario and White Tanooki Mario. The game also introduces new enemies and a female partner of Boom Boom named Pom Pom.In Mario Tennis Aces' May Online Tournament, Toadette's new tennis attire is introduced. Toadette wears a pink visor cap with its rim surrounding her mushroom cap, while wearing her usual dress shirt and white pants, but with the Nintendo logo on the former; she also does not wear her usual vest. Toadette also wears lavender sneakers with her insignia on them, which also appears on her cap. Lava Bubbles, formerly Podoboos, are balls of fire that leap out of Lava. Starting in Super Mario World, their design sometimes includes eyes. Ray is a friendly Manta Ray in Super Mario Galaxy that Penguins ride for sport. Mario can also ride him at two points. Hey, what's the deal?! What did you do to my hotel? It looks like a corkscrew now! Nobody wants to vacation in a corkscrew!"

This section is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible. Toadette coincidentally shares her appearance with the Trading Event Toad that gives out gifts in Paper Mario, also having a pink mushroom cap and red vest.

Yoshis are a species of friendly dinosaurs native to Yoshi's Island. Originally, only three colored Yoshis were introduced in Super Mario World: Green, Red, Blue, and Yellow. Except for the green one, each colored Yoshi has an unique ability when they swallow a Koopa shell. While it seems Yoshis may be invaluable on their own unless commanded by Mario, they have proved otherwise in many games of the series like in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, where a group of them agreed on taking Baby Mario on a journey to rescue his captured brother. Regular Yoshis reprise their ridable role in games like New Super Mario Bros. Wii and its sequel, New Super Mario Bros. U. Wario is Mario's yellow-clad, greedy childhood friend and rival. Though he has antagonized Mario since his debut in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, Wario proved to be a valuable ally during the events of Super Mario 64 DS, where he, alongside Luigi, originally came to "crash the party" of Mario and Peach. Wario is the strongest character in the game, being able to destroy some obstacles the other character would have no choice but avoid them. Fluzzard is a large bird from Super Mario Galaxy 2 that is also quite shy. Mario can ride from his talons, similar to Hoot, but he only ever seems to glide. The Broodals are a group of rabbit wedding planners in Super Mario Odyssey, whose group name seems to be a portmanteau of "brood," "bridal," and possibly "brutal." Bowser hires them to arrange the wedding between him and Peach, and to stop Mario when he tries to stop the wedding from happening. Their boss is Madame Broode, an obese red-clad rabbit with a pet Chain Chomp, while their leader is Topper, the squat Broodal in green attire. The other Broodals are Spewart (in blue), Rango (in yellow), and Hariet (in purple).
