Happy Birthday to Super Mario Bros! 35 Years of Gaming

The Super Mario Bros series originated on the Famicom/NES system and released on September 13, 2020. As of this writing, it is officially September 13th in Japan, and that means it is time for us to wish the series a wonderful Happy Birthday! For 35 years, the series has brought smiles all around the world with its fantastic platforming and amazing ability to adapt to each passing generation. No matter the time and place, a Super Mario game will always be around the corner.

You can head to Japan’s official site to celebrate the occasion, and there is a whole lot to be excited about regarding this momentous celebration.

It is a great time to be a Super Mario fan, and it just so happens to be National Video Games Day as well. For this celebratory time, how about we reflect on all of the memories we had with this franchise? What are your three favorite Super Mario games and why?

For me, I will forever be in love with Super Mario Bros because of nostalgia, Super Mario World because of damn near perfect 2D platforming, and Super Mario Odyssey for being one of the best 3D platformers I have ever played.

So let’s wish the franchise a grand old Happy Birthday as we fall in love with Super Mario over and over again. #nationalgamingday
