|On September 13, 1985, Mario starred in his very first game outside of the arcades, ''Super Mario Bros.'', which became extremely successful. Mario, and his brother Luigi, had to set out on a massive adventure across the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] to rescue [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] and the [[Mushroom Retainer]]s from the evil [[Bowser|King Bowser]]. After traversing through eight massive [[world]]s, filled with enemies, the brothers eventually reached [[Bowser's Castle]], finally rescuing Princess Toadstool. ''Super Mario Bros.'' was the best-selling video game for the NES in 1999,<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20060317005503/http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/content_pages/record.asp?recordid=52404 Best-selling NES game]</ref> and, until surpassed by ''Wii Sports'' in 2009, the best-selling video game of all time. ''Super Mario Bros.'' also had a major part in both the takeoff of the NES and the revival of the American video game industry after the crash in 1983.
