Mario Madness is a card game that was released in 1991 by CBD Spiele and tied to Nintendo Power. While the game is branded after Super Mario Bros. on the manual and score card, the game is not themed after a singular Super Mario franchise game. For instance, the box art uses artwork based on that of the Super Mario Land box.
