'''''Super Mario Bros.''''' is a video game released for the [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] in [[List of games by date#1985|1985]]. It shifted the gameplay away from its single-screen arcade predecessor, ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'', and instead featured side-scrolling platformer levels. While not the first game of the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]] (the first being ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]''), ''Super Mario Bros.'' is the most iconic, and introduced various series staples, including power-ups, classic enemies such as [[Goomba]]s, and the basic premise of rescuing [[Princess Peach]] from [[Bowser]].

While not the first game of the [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' franchise]] (the first being ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]''), ''Super Mario Bros.'' is the most iconic, and introduced various series staples, including power-ups, several enemies such as [[Koopa Troopa]], and the basic premise of rescuing [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] from [[Bowser|King Koopa]] (eventually renamed to Princess Peach and Bowser, respectively).


As well as kicking off an entire series of ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' platformer games, the wild success of ''Super Mario Bros.'' popularized the genre as a whole, helped revive the North American gaming industry after the {{wp|video game crash of 1983}}, and was largely responsible for the initial success of the NES, with which it was bundled as a launch title. Until it was eventually surpassed by ''[[mh:nintendo:Wii Sports|Wii Sports]]'', ''Super Mario Bros.'' was the best-selling video game of all time for nearly three decades, with over 40 million copies sold worldwide.
