Mario Bros. is an Arcade Game Made by Nintendo in 1983. Also released on the NES, it contained the first appearance of Luigi, and was the first installment in the Mario Bros. series. It would seem that it was the prequel to Super Mario Bros., because of how Mario and Luigi find a pipe to the Mushroom Kingdom at the end of the game.

In the Game Boy Advance Super Mario Advance series, Mario Bros. was included as a desperate mini-game, playing like the original game with updated graphics. There was also an added two- to four-player battle mode that other players could join you on through use of a GBA link cable.
