Mario Bros. is an Arcade Game made by Nintendo in 1983. Also released on the NES, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, and Atari 7800; it contained the first appearance of Luigi, and was the first installment in the Mario Bros. series.
A newer version of Mario Bros. appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3's Two Player mode. More recently, in the Super Mario Advance series and the RPG game Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario Bros. was included as a separate mini-game, playing like the original game with updated graphics. There was also an added two- to four-player battle mode meaning that other players could join your game through the use of a GBA link cable. Also in those games, the Shellcreepers were replaced by Spinies.
