Mario Bros. (Game & Watch)



Mario Bros. for the Game & Watch system holds the distinction of being the first two-player non-arcade version of the game Mario Bros.. The game is played on the Multi Screen model of Game & Watch and was released in March 1983. To play two-players, each player must share the system and use each side to play. Since this Game & Watch model is designed to be used for two-players, the buttons are located on both sides of the model. This is considered rare because of the lack of Game & Watch models that allowed two-players to play simultaneously (most multi-player Game & Watch models had players taking turns).
