'''''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''''' was the second ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' television cartoon produced by [[DiC Entertainment]], based upon ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. An apparent continuation of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', this series served as a bit of a turning point for the DiC version of Mario.

'''''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''''', also known as '''''Super Mario Bros. 3''''', was the second cartoon of [[DiC Entertainment]]'s ''Super Mario'' trilogy, loosely based upon [[Super Mario Bros. 3|the game of the same name]]. Aired Saturday mornings on {{wp|NBC}} alongside ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'', the show served as a bit of a turning point to the ''Super Mario'' trilogy, where unlike ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' before it, the Mushroom Kingdom is shown in a more peaceful state, there is no live-action segment at the beginning and end of the episode and [[Bowser|King Koopa]] does not use alter egos or employ any of [[Wart]]'s minions. Numerous enemies from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' carry over into this series, such as the [[Koopalings|Koopa Kids]], who are portrayed with solid personalities, and original names to reflect them. The series has been released on DVD by Shout! Factory and MRA Entertainment, also responsible for the DVD releases of the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' cartoon series. This series has 26 episodes.
Unlike ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', which was broadcast five days a week in syndication, ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' was aired on Saturday mornings on NBC, alongside ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' for the 1990-1991 season. The two shows originally aired in a one-hour package entitled '''''Captain N & The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''''', which consisted of a half-hour episode of ''Captain N: The Game Master'' sandwiched between two fifteen-minute ''Mario'' episodes. The two shows were then split up for later airings. ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' was the only animated Mario series to use episode title cards and also the only one to open with a narration instead of a theme song.

The show was originally titled "'''''Super Mario Bros. III!'''''" as shown in a poster that featured radically different designs for the Koopalings, [[Tryclyde]] (this time blue), and a previously unseen yellow monster.<ref>[[:File:TAOSMB3PrototypePoster.jpg|the poster in question]]</ref>

While ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' mainly dealt with Mario and [[Luigi]] helping [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] and [[Toad]] trying to stop [[Bowser|King Koopa]] from taking over the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and other lands, ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' took place some time later, after the events of the game, when the Mushroom Kingdom was in a more peaceful state.

As it was based on ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', the feel of the Mushroom Kingdom changed to better resemble the game. The various worlds of ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' were visited regularly, and new Power-Ups such as [[Super Leaf|Super Leaves]] and [[Frog Suit]]s appeared. King Koopa also changed his army, losing [[Wart]]'s minions, but gaining more of his own, including [[Boom Boom (species)|Boom Booms]], [[Boomerang Bro|Boomerang Brother]]s, [[Sledge Brother]]s, [[Dry Bones]], and many more. Although characters continued to call him King Koopa like they did on ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', his full name, Bowser Koopa, was mentioned in a few episodes.

Also, King Koopa no longer goes through various alter-egos and wears costumes, and although characters continued to call him King Koopa like they did on ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', his full name, Bowser Koopa, was mentioned in a few episodes. Furthermore, none of the voice cast from ''Super Show!'' returned to their roles, except Harvey Atkin and [[John Stocker]].
 
[[Image:TAoSMB3Bowser.jpg|thumb|King Bowser Koopa.]]
One notable addition to the cast was Bowser's seven [[Koopalings#DIC Cartoons|Koopalings]], who were given alternate names for the show. Although DIC has never properly explained why different names were issued for the Koopalings, they hadn't been named by Nintendo of America when the show began production. Because they needed names for the characters, the writers had to make up names of their own.
 
[[Image:CartoonKoopalings.jpg|thumb|180px|The Koopalings. Back row from left to right: Hop, Kootie Pie and Hip. Front row: Bully, Big Mouth, Cheatsy, and Kooky.]]
Other locations in the show included [[Toad House|Toad's House]] and the [[Princess Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]], where the protagonists often reside between their adventures. The Koopa family took up residence at [[Bowser's Castle|Kastle Koopa]], located in the heart of [[Dark Land]]. In many episodes, the Koopas would use their [[Airship|Doomship]] to launch their attacks.

''The Mushroom Kingdom was finally free of King Koopa's tumultuous troublemaking. Mario and Luigi had chased the rascally reptile into a Banishment Zone and sealed the entrance with ten-thousand bricks. Then, after posing for hero statues and being feted with a kingdom-wide gourmet victory feast, our brave plumbers returned home to Brooklyn. But when the peaceful Mushroom People least expected it, King Koopa escaped. Vowing to finally get his villainy right this time, Koopa blasted back to the Mushroom Kingdom in his flying battlewagon, the Doomship, and revealed the wildest, weirdest, wackiest danger any Nintendo world has ever faced: King Koopa's kids. [[Bully Koopa]], [[Big Mouth Koopa Jr.]], [[Kooky von Koopa]], [[Cheatsy Koopa]], [[Kootie Pie Koopa]], and the last of the litter, twins Hip and Hop. Now, it was Koopa plus seven Koopalings, and the peaceful Mushroom Kingdom faced seven-hundred times the pandemonium. Princess Toadstool sent an urgent call for help. Only the Super Mario Bros. could stop the royal Koopa and his obnoxious offspring from wreaking their half-baked havoc. And Super Mario 3 [sic], the Super Marios' super mirthful adventures had begun.''

The Koopa family took up residence at [[Bowser's Castle|Kastle Koopa]], located in the heart of [[Dark Land]]. In many episodes, the Koopas would use the [[Bowser's Airship|Doom Ship]] to launch their attacks.


==Meet the Marios and the Koopas from ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' writers bible==
During the credits, a scene of the episode "[[Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas]]" is shown, where Mario and Luigi hit a giant block. In the episode, the block quickly vanishes when the Bros. hit it. However, in the credits, the block is still there, even after being hit.
''Our stories can start in several ways. First, they can begin with our heroes and heroine: Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool and Toad. I.e. they set out to rescue a troubled Mushroom Kingdom citizen, or on a personal quest, and then quickly find their lives complicated by King Koopa and his kids. Or, we can start our stories at Kastle Koopa, when King Koopa announces his latest wicked and wacky scheme, then selects which one of his Koopalings he'll take along as his assistant. Depending on the specific evil talent required for the Koopa caper, à la Mission Impossible. And then it's up to our heroes to stop them.''

''Since there's never been a more rivalrous group of siblings, the Koopalings clamor to win King Koopa's favor, and sabatoge one another in order to be chosen. When the riot ends, King Koopa and the kid, or kids of his choice, set out to create havoc in all the rich, new levels of the Mushroom Kingdom. From [[Grass Land]] to [[Desert Hill]], [[Water Land]] to [[Giant Land]], [[Sky Land]] to [[Ice Land]], and [[Pipe Land]] to [[Dark Land]].''

[[Boo|Boo Diddley]]s, pesky ghost heads with big teeth and short tempers. [[Thwomp]], a monumental hunk of menacing rock with the ambition to be Mario's tombstone. [[Ptooie]]s, mouth-headed mercenaries who spit spiked cannonballs. And [[Rocky Wrench]], a sneaky turtle with severe overbite who hides in manholes and ambushes unsuspecting plumbers.''

==Home releases==
*The Koopalings were given different names for the show than the ones they had for the game. Also, some of their cartoon designs deviated from their game artwork a fair bit. In the French dub of the show, King Koopa was regularly referred to as Bowser, and the Koopalings went by their game names. Also a few episodes had King Koopa called by his full name "Bowser Koopa", which is his actual game name.
{{main|List of The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 home media releases}}
*Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, Toad and King Koopa retain their designs from ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show''.
Many VHSs and DVDs compiling episodes from the show have been released worldwide, including the following:
**Although Nintendo had swapped the colors of Mario and Luigi's shirts and overalls by the time ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' was released, DiC never did so in the show as Mario retains the blue shirt and red overalls and Luigi retains the blue shirt and green overalls that appeared in ''Super Mario Bros.'' from ''The Super Mario Bros Super Show''. However, the artwork for Shout! Factory DVD set of the show portrays Mario with his current color swap from the later ''Mario'' games instead of his old color swap from the cartoon and the early ''Mario'' games and Mario's hair color was changed from black to brown since "[[Princess Toadstool for President]]".
===VHS tapes===
*There was only one single [[Airship]], which was referred to as the "Doomship".
*US: Mind Your Mummy Mommy, Mario, Misadventures in Babysitting, Never Koop a Koopa, The Ugly Mermaid (Buena Vista) and King Koopa Katastrophe (Sterling Entertainment)
*Standard Super Leaves grant near-limitless flight power, as if they were [[P-Wing]]s.
*AU/NZ: Princess Toadstool for President, Reptiles in the Rose Garden, Kootie Pie Rocks (Roadshow Entertainment)
*[[Goomba's Shoe|Kuribo's Shoe]] is referred to as "Karoobi's Shoe".
*The Mushroom Kingdom and Grass Land are considered one and the same, although in the game, Grass Land is a separate land from the Mushroom Kingdom, and is ruled by its own [[Mushroom Kings|king]]. This was likely done because the Mushroom Kingdom didn't actually appear in the game, and the two lands were fairly similar.
===DVDs===
*[[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] received a graphical makeover for the cartoon.
*One one-disc set by Sterling Entertainment.
*Mario and Luigi's fire forms resemble their Fire Flower sprites from the NES game in ''[[Super Koopa]]''.
*Three one-disc sets by NCircle Entertainment.
*One three-disc set by NCircle Entertainment.
*One two-disc set by NCircle Entertainment.
*One three-disc box-set by Shout! Factory (released 2007).
*One two-disc set by Beyond Home Entertainment (Australia and New Zealand only).
*Three one-disc sets by MRA Entertainment (Australia and New Zealand only).
*Three one-disc sets by Disky Communications (UK, Ireland and Netherlands only)
 
==Differences from the game==
*The Koopa Kids were known by different names in the series, having new names that reflected their given personalities, and some aspects of their designs deviated slightly from their game artwork.  
*Koopa was called "Bowser" in a few episodes, and that name was used regularly in the French dub, which also used the Koopa Kids' game names.  
*The character designs for the four heroes and Koopa were retained from ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' despite the fact that Nintendo redesigned the main characters in the ''Super Mario'' franchise, but after "Princess Toadstool for President," Mario's hair was recolored to its present brown while Luigi's hair stays black, and Toadstool's eyes are black in this series as opposed to their original green.
**Although the show did not carry over the Mario brothers' current shirt and overall coloration swaps from the game, the orange-and-red color motif from their NES fire sprites, where their shirts were colored like their hats but their overalls were not, was retained when it appeared in "Super Koopa." Also, Mario was portrayed with his current color scheme from the games on the Shout! Factory DVD cover, while in the show, he is still portrayed with his original color scheme.
*There is only one single [[Airship]], which is referred to as the "Doom Ship".
*[[Goomba's Shoe|Kuribo's Shoe]] is referred to as "Karoobi."  
*No distinction is made between standard Super Leaves and [[P-Wing]]s, with all flight power being near-limitless, and the Mushroom Kingdom and [[Grass Land]] are treated as one and the same.
*In order to use the power-ups, Bowser needed to wear a special pendant created by Kooky and be in the real world.
*Bowser's Castle is surrounded by water instead of lava.

{{footnote|note|1|The difference between the Latin American (in the original dub) and the Spain re-dub title of the series is this: in Latin America, they are the Super "Mario" Brothers, with Super being an adjective to "Mario" which is their last name, whereas in Spain, they are the "Super Mario" Brothers, with "Super Mario" being sort of their last name. This difference is one of the minor ones between the two dubs, the Spain re-dub having kept many changes and mistakes (particularly regarding to character's names and episode titles) from the Latin American dub, as opposed to the first Spain dub, which went to their own (and more accurate) translation of the English version.}}

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*During the credits, a scene of the episode "[[Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas]]" is shown, where Mario and Luigi hit a giant block. In the episode, the block quickly vanishes when the Bros. hit it. However, in the credits, the block is still there, even after being hit.
*The VHSs distributed by the Argentine company Target use artwork from video games in the box art, which include ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' and ''[[Yoshi (game)|Yoshi]]''.
*The Swedish, Finnish (1998 dub), and Greek dubs don't have King Koopa saying, "I'll get those plumbers!" at the end of the intro sequence.
**The same occurs with the DVDs distributed by the Spanish company Paycom Multimedia, in which the first three volumes use artwork from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and the fourth volume uses  artwork from ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]''.<ref>[https://www.blu-ray.com/dvd/The-Adventures-of-Super-Mario-Bros-3-DVD/232539/ Las aventuras de Super Mario Bros / Vol. 4]. ''Blu-ray.com''. Retrieved March 21, 2023.</ref> The back covers of all five volumes use artwork from ''[[Super Mario World]]''.
*The Italian dub uses an instrumental version of the intro sequence without the opening narration. This also exists on a few episodes for the Brazilian Portuguese dub.
*There were two different Brazilian Portuguese dubs.
