The briefing

About this game

Kaettekita Mario Bros. is an updated remake of the original NES version of Mario Bros., developed and published by Nintendo for the Family Computer Disk System in 1988.

Overview

The game restores several elements that were reduced in the earlier NES conversion, including larger enemy sprites, instructional scenes introducing enemies, and icicles that form from the upper platform later in the game. Mario and Luigi can also change direction slightly while airborne.

Its disk-based features include name registration and saving the top five high scores. The game was distributed through the Famicom Disk Writer rather than sold separately.

Sponsorship Content

Published in partnership with Nagatanien, the game includes advertisements for Nagatanien products and Super Mario Bros. 3, along with a contest offering related merchandise.
