'''''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.''''' | '''''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.''''' is an officially licensed retool of ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', produced in 1986 for the [[Family Computer Disk System]]. As such, there is no 2 Player Game but rather the option to play as [[Luigi]] with his unique physics. This version is based on the Japanese radio program ''{{wp|All Night Nippon}}'', and it was sold through a lottery system on the show itself to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the program in the upcoming year. The game was published by {{wp|Nippon Broadcasting System}}, a subsidiary of {{wp|Fuji TV}} who would go on to publish ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'', which was localized in the West as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. | ||
Only 3,040 copies were released. Due to high demand and limited supply, listeners were told from December 15 to December 19 to send a postcard which would be entered into a lottery for 2,000 of the copies. The card must be postmarked by December 20 to qualify. Winners received a reply postcard to alert them to send a money order for their copy. 1,000 copies were sold directly at Nippon Broadcasting System's music center window on December 20, which lead to a long queue of prospective buyers in front of the building. In addition, ''Famicom Tsūshin'' (''Famitsu'') and ''Family Computer Magazine'' (''Famimaga'') each gave out 20 free copies to their readers in a lottery. The deadline for ''Famitsu'' was December 25 while ''Famimaga'''s was January 15, 1987. ''Famitsu'' received over 30,000 submissions.<ref>[https://bigafrodogg.hatenablog.com/entry/2022/03/29/190531 New Discovery of ''All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros.'' 3/29/2022].

He would perform a {{wp|guerilla gig}} at a small business, usually a restaurant, and overwhelm it with customers. Other games with a similar concept of Mario meeting Japanese celebrities were found on the [[Satellaview]], with spiritual successors such as ''[[BS Super Mario USA]]'', ''[[BS Super Mario Collection]]'', and a version of ''[[Wario's Woods]]''. ''[[Kaettekita Mario Bros.]]'' was another similar project. | ||
