Super Mario Bros. (NES) Playthrough - NintendoComplete

- A playthrough of Nintendo's 1985 platformer for the NES, Super Mario Bros.
It's Super Mario Bros.' thirty-fifth birthday this month.
I know, right?!
I feel like the old man telling stories when I say this, but it's hard to believe that so much time has passed. I got my NES for Christmas in 1988 (first grade!), and it came with the 2-in-1 Super Mario/Duck Hunt cartridge, and wow. I had a 2600 and I had played it to death, but the NES was worlds beyond the decrepit Atari. Playing Super Mario Bros. was like discovering video games for the very first time. Everyone talks about how revolutionary it was, and of course they're right. Nintendo is the company they are today largely thanks to this game, but it's hard to describe in words just how big of a deal it truly was.
But anyways, my gushing gaming origins story-tell aside, Super Mario Bros. is the game responsible for the platforming genre as we know it, let alone the lasting contributions it made to shaping the philosophy of game design in general.
And quite deservedly, Mario is one of the most widely recognized pop culture icons in the world. Does the game really need any further introduction?
Here are the timestamps for stuff that I'd like to draw your attention to:
0:06 First loop
9:09 1up trick with a Koopa shell
33:52 Second loop
41:25 Third loop and the Minus world
In the first loop, I play the game as straight as possible. No warp zones, and no bonus areas that skip large chunks of a level.
In the second loop, I take (what is, as far as I know) the shortest possible path through the game. I warp from 1-2 to 4-1, and then again from 4-2 to 8-1. Once I had finally mastered the game as a kid, this was the way I usually played it. It was a great way to burn ten or fifteen minutes before school or for when dinner wasn't quite ready yet.
Finally, the third loop is only played through 1-2, where I show how to access the fabled stage -1. I can still remember kids talking about this one on the playground! Just be warned that once you've done the trick, you'll be stuck in stage -1. When you enter the pipe at the end, the game returns you to the beginning of the level, and the only way out of an endless loop is to get a game over or to hit the reset button.
(Completely random aside: after playing FF7 Remake, now whenever I do the SMB 1-up trick, I can't help but think of the bit where Johnny says, "And then there was this crazy-looking house, right? And it was all like trying to kill 'em! But then Cloud was all like bing, bang, boom!" To which the incredulous pharmacy guy responds, "Your friend fought...a house? ...A house?" The house being a comic substitute for the koopa shell... yeah, weird association, I guess, but the guy's disbelief made me laugh so hard!)
I had a video of this game up previously, but it was showing some cracks from age. It was one of the first videos I ever put on UA-cam (about seven years ago now!), and the 240p stream seemed like a poor showing for a now decidedly middle-aged Mario. This new playthrough, recorded at 720p60, felt like an appropriate way to give him a bit of confidence-boosting Botox without going all-out Melania. Mario deserves some dignity, after all.
Needless to say, I love Super Mario Bros., and chances are, if you have a pulse, you do as well. Doesn't the world seem so much nicer when people can universally agree on how awesome something is?
Happy birthday, Mario!

The most important video game ever made.
The game that saved a dying industry.
The game that launched a company from playing cards and arcade games to one of the most profitable companies in the world.
The game that created a global icon.
The game that gave us 35 years worth of wonderful childhood memories and fun game play.
35 years later, we owe everyone involved a debt of gratitude for how this game impacted our lives.
Thank you Nintendo. Thank you Mario.
But only if you didn't die so much in NES games, Where's the fun in that?
@@unchi1999 you’re still here breathing.🤷♂️
@@Casinoman8000 what are you talking about?
super Mario bros 3 still blows it out of the water though.
@@raccoon681 but the Original can't be touched.
A wise Asian man once said... Can't touch this! 👀
Super Mario Bros. was as game-changing as games get. Truly, once you played it, there was no going back: Nintendo had redefined video games in one fell swoop. Happy birthday, Mario!
Yeah, such a classic, but which emulator you used?
@@Dorian_Scott yeah definitely, I guess it's even more special if you get your old NES in the basement or something, hook it up on a CRT TV and replay it.
@@GamePlayerZ1912 That's me with most Atari games.
@@Dorian_Scott yeah, specialy with the RF box, the worst quality xD, but we didn't had HDMI back in the day so it's the best we could get.
"SMB 1 is a historical classic that fully revived the video game indu-"
Nintendo: LETS RELEASE THIS GAME EVERY YEAR
...
Nothing can beat Mario, No graphics not powerful consoles. Your childhood is untouchable.
Edit: Thanks for uploading!
This game never gets old.
Never will.
I always love reading your detailed descriptions for each of your videos.
This game brings back so many memories. In October, I turn 44. As a child, this game was a major part of my life. Although I never beat the game, I spent so many hours trying to do just that.
Well sir, you can beat it now, but you need to act fast game and watch is only here until tomorrow
I didn’t fully beat the game until I was 25. I have faith you can go back and beat it now.
To clarify:
This is the game that SAVED U.S. Video Game Industry from shitstorm made by Atari.
Sure, nowadays it's incredibly simplistic (even when compared to later NES Mario games) but it's still an important milestone in gaming regardless.
Well said Dominik! :)
The video game was perfectly fine in Britian and Japan
An all time classic game. Even thirty five years later, this game is still so much fun to play!
I remember watching my cousin play this game, he was very good at playing. He just had a knack for picking up on things,he studied how things worked, and afterwards, just aced it,
The first game I ever played. I was 5 and it was 1989. Been a gamer ever since. Super Mario Bros aged so well!
I'm maybe about 5 years younger than you, born in 1986, but my first console was the 2600 as well. We only had two games on it, _Front Line_ and _Mouse Trap_ , before jumping ahead to getting _Sonic the Hedgehog_ Christmas of 1991. I completely missed out on playing Mario games, save for a few occasions at relatives/friends (mainly through _Super Mario All-Stars_ on SNES), until 1998, when we got our first-ever Nintendo console with _Ocarina of Time_ . I'll always be a SEGA fan at heart due to my upbringing with the wonderfully creative and "edgy" Sega Genesis, but never let it be said that I didn't absolutely LOVE _Super Mario 64_ and then going back and playing through the classic series, along with the 3D Mario games as we got a GameCube and Wii over the years.
After the kind of year this has been and the havoc it has wreaked on my mental and emotional well-being, celebrating the 35th anniversary of Super Mario Bros. is a welcome respite. And that _Super Mario 3D All-Stars_ collection with SUPER MARIO SUNSHINE on it?! YES!
My dad got this game in 1988, it was his very first video game ever and console
Hell i still have that same system since he got it in his youth
This dude makes it look so easy. I’ve never been able to beat a Mario game.
I've beaten it before, but it was just recently that I beat mario with no warps, no cheats and no cheap tricks.
Reasons why the NES was such an unstable piece of shit that you couldn't even win games on.
@@unchi1999 I found Super Mario Bros the first time i played it to be quite easy to get used to and beat it quickly.
09:10-09:50
This was stupendous, mate.
Nice to see you're giving this obscure little game some attention.
Happy 35th anniversary!!! 😁
Also, I am so proud of being born in 1985. We both are 35.
What a coincidence.
In my childhood, i played the All-Stars version of this in my childhood before the original version in the following years.
Same. Still liked the SNES version more.
Happy 35th Anniversary Super Mario Bros for NES.
Such a nice way to celebrate. Happy birthday Mario!
It was so hearthwarming to read your and others histories in the description and comments respectively, it was been a long time. Stay going strong as always)
Mario will live on forever in both our hearts, and in the next generations to come by as the hero of the Mushroom kingdom.
This is a NES classic that i never had the chance to play.
My 1st Mario game was Super Mario Sunshine on Gamecube. Good memories.
I loved Sunshine. It's one of my favorite Mario games.
NintendoComplete and you can play it on the Switch ! It’s part of a remastered game compilation called Super Mario 3D Stars who will be released this month. You can pre-order now.
Oh yeah, I've already put in my order with Amazon!
NintendoComplete cool😊.
This game aged like fine wine, even today Super Mario Bros still holds up against most video games of today.
Well... for the most part, it ages fairly well 35 years later. The controls, recycled levels and bosses, and sometimes dull backgrounds certainly have not.
The king of all video games.
Zelda OOT: Am I a joke to you?
I have the same original copy as this. Looking at all the Super Mario games that came to be in the last 35 years, it starts here, even though this isn't Mario's first ever game (that was Donkey Kong). A legend among '80s gamers.
I grew up with a family that had both the Atari and the Intellivision when I was a kid. I visited the arcade frequently in my early youth after my mom was done with her shopping. But it was seeing this game at my best friend's house when he got one for Christmas of 1986 that really opened my mind to what gaming could be. And when I got my own NES the following Christmas of 87 (10 years old, 4th Grade) with Super Mario Bros., as well as The Legend of Zelda to go with it, I became even more amazed at what home gaming could be. Remember what I was coming off of when it came to home consoles. And then there was the fact that the NES was truly my console. The Atari and the Intellivision were the family's, and they were set up to the kitchen TV. This was truly my first console, and my dad hooked it up in my room that Christmas morning that I got it. I also remember buying Metroid a week later with my Christmas money. These are memories I would not trade for anything.
I now collect NES and SNES games (most complete in box), and have a total of 85 games. There are some games connected to strong memories. I can turn on Final Fantasy III (Final Fantasy VI) for the SNES, and immediately, I feel exactly the way I did seeing that intro for the first time when I was 17 and a Junior in High School in 1994. I can also strongly remember the thrill of Christmas 1988, when I managed to get Super Mario Bros. 2, Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, and Bubble Bobble that year. Again, I just turn those games on, and I vividly remember that day. That is the power of retro gaming to me.
Amen. I'm five years younger than you, but I'm right there with you on every point :) And you lucky sob, getting both Mario 2 and Zelda 2 that Christmas, what with the chip shortage and all!
@@NintendoComplete I know, I could not believe it when I unwrapped the package, and saw those games stacked on top of each other. Getting Mario 2 and Zelda 2 that Christmas to a kid was akin to winning the lottery.
@@yusakug Props on you obtaining SMB2. It's always fun to pop in just like every other Mario game.
Zelda 2, however... well... I pity your younger self. That game is horrible.
Did you play Kid Icarus? Was there a commercial for it?
Still have my intellivision with voice module and nes I play from time to time..punch out…dd3…tmnt..several classics..mario3 which I think one of if not best games n history..all my cords are original and I get real nervous hookin em up afraid I’ll break one
This game makes me happy
Such a great game. One of the subtle things they did that aren't even done in some newer Mario games is change enemy color based on lighting. The koopa troopas become teal shelled instead of green, the goombas turn blue, etc. Very cool touch.
Ha! Your story is similar to mine, except I got my NES at the end of sixth grade which was spring 1988, after having worn out my Atari 2600. I got the set with the gray light gun, two controllers and the SMB/Duck Hunt twin pack.
I agree with all you said! It’s really hard to describe just how different it was from the Atari. It was like playing video games for the first time all over again.
My first game 😁😁
And then let's go back to our classic childhood game of all time. Our adorable plumber jumping on Goombas and koopas, eating mushrooms getting taller, picking flowers that throw fire... and the star that dominates all enemies... 💙💙
Let's not forget about all of those imprisoned Toads that Mario kills via bashing blocks with his head.
a true classic. can't wait for Mario 35.
I play Super Mario Bothers a lot when I was a kid and it's still brilliant today. 😀👍🎮
Seeing this makes me feel old.
The NES classic game that begun it all
For Super Mario, at least.
Ah yes, the one and only Super Mario Bros. My uncle (my mom's kid brother) showed this to my sister and I and it right away got us into Nintendo.
Happy 35th, Super Mario Bros.! 😊
To commemorate the 35th anniversary.....
To think, Super Mario Bros. was born two years after I was. I should feel special.
Me and my brother could never beat this game. Can't remember but one of us finally figured it out.
ideal for the 35th anniversary :)
A true NES classic along with Mario Bros 2 and 3. Miss those days. Switch isn't worth it to me imo. Well done my friend
Kid: Can we go to World 7-2?
Mom: We already have World 7-2 at home.
World 7-2 at home: 43:04
Brah! Joke.
This is one of the best games I ever played in the nearly 34 years of my life still a fan of this game to this day

#SuperMarioBros
Even though I much prefer sonic over Mario, I respect Mario for saving the industry
Super Mario Bros. is the first video game i ever played and i love it and it's the best video game of 1985.
I still have my original SMB/Duck Hunt Cartridge! Still never beat it... Holds up good in terms of Gameplay!
09:20 Excellent glitch! 🤣🤣🤣 Why have I never seen this before?!
Happy 35th birthday Mario!!!!
I like how Nintendo is porting the original game and Lost Levels as part of a special Game and Watch LCD game.
i'm 9 and this game is one of my favorites. That's why I spent $30 to buy a nes.
Great game happy to see it completed because could I hell complete myself even bought a NES mini to see if I got any better with age guess what you don't I got worse.
Yeah, it sucks how muscle memory goes like that.
0:06 Super Mario Bros. 1-1

Happy 35th Anniversary Super Mario Bros.
Awesome playthrough of an absolute classic happy 35th mario
This game was really hard I remember!
I may have said it a while back, but I need to say it again.
Aside from certain difficult enemies to get by (worse if you're not Fire Mario), the thing that irks me about this otherwise enjoyable game (which was the staple of my childhood) is that the time counts down very fast. The worst are the levels that only have 300 "seconds"...especially 8-1, an *IMPOSSIBLY* long level to travel through in such a short time.
Video games on the Famicom/NES existed prior to SMB but they were the kind of stuff that would get you bored in, at much, half an hour. Then this came, with 32 unique levels on just a tiny 40 kb cartridge. Not only was for some time the greatest NES game, but the most advanced considering that there aren't any more complex games that don't utilize any mapper. Also, SMB doesn't feel like anything that was released on the Famicom prior to that point. It truly was a game changer.
Lots of memories!
Man, Mario's certainly come a long way since this classic came out. I am wondering, though, how did you record this?
Hahaha. Do I really have to say anything on this timeless classic bro. ? 8^)
Anthony..
Wow, a whole lot of memories in the first five seconds
Nostalgic so 80s it's unbelievable So happy I lived when this was introduced best of times!!!!
Princess Peach Thank You Mario!
Your Quest Is Over.
We Present You A New Quest.
Super Mario Bros.(NES) in 1985
VS.
MegaMan X4(PS1) in 1997
My late wonderful dad loved Super Mario Bros on NES and SNES and so naturally I love Mario since 1990. I was 5
Super Mario Bros. was way ahead of its time.
Nice Süper Mariolu senelere 🍄
this is it. this was the game that inspired call of duty
Hey, I'm not crazy..am I? but wasent there some SMB carts that actually had the Princess Sprite in each of the castles instead of a Toad?
Was there? I don't recall that. This version (w/Duck Hunt) was the version I had as a kid, so it's all the way i remember it being.
@@NintendoComplete I could have sworn that was the case...of course I can't seem to find anything online to back this up. Best I can figure maybe...I had at one point a bad copy? (Course that depends on your interpretation of bad)
@@ZentuWindslash Are you sure you aren't just misremembering the ending as being the same as the Toad scenes? Toadstool does finally show up in 8-4. If you played the game using warp zones most the time like I did, you probably were used to only seeing that one scene since you can skip all the other castles.
@@NintendoComplete its possible...but SMB is so well known I find it hard to believe I could goof. No big whoop.
Show muito bom

Starman flagpole glitch at 18:00
The late 80s was a great time to be alive!
Fun fact, if you get a game over, you can press "A" and the Start button to return to the beginning of the world you got the game over in. It's in the Official Game, pretty neat and useful.
You touched the ground...
(Video begins with a 1988 home video, showing the first time the Nerd played the NES on his birthday.)
Boy: Alright, you get one game with it. That's Super Mario Bros. and Duck Hunt. Okay, so...
Girl (oc): I wanted that!
The Nerd: That's me, staring at a fresh Nintendo Entertainment System, right out of the box. My life was about to be changed forever. There I am, excited that the game's just been hooked up.
Boy: I heard it!
Young James: I'm playin' it, okay?
The Nerd: And there ya have it. My first time playing NES. (Camera shows his friends) Those are my friends, watching in awe, sympathy, and shock.
Young James: (Mario loses a life) Come on, that stupid man! He wouldn't walk! (Mario falls off a cliff) Oh great, oh, why'd ya have to do that? (Screen shows Mario running, hitting the first coin block, and dying from the first Goomba. The Game Over screen appears.) AAARGH! I lose every game!
(Young James yells in slow motion, then cuts to a montage of the Nerd swearing from the first AVGN episodes)
The Nerd: FUCK! Piece of shit! ...Is diarrhea comin' outta my dick! Fuckin' horrible! Inside out asshole! (Montage of "fuck" from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles review) Fuckin' my balls! Fuck, fuck, fuck, FUUUUCK! (Montage of the Nerd drinking Rolling Rock, then an explosion effect)
This game was the Speed Two Cruise Control of its generation.
1 hour for a platformer? That's awesome.
9:27 i was playing this before school one morning and never knew anything about this, we lived out in the desert at the time and zero contact. found this on my own that morning and it was on my mind all day that day in school, didnt learn anything but on mario bros
I remember when i finally beat this game. It felt like a letdown. Like I went through all the aggravation, to beat the game, and the ending wasn't what i thought it would be. Oh well. Childhood memories.
Perhaps, the best way to watch this is at 2x speed. 🤣🤣🤣
I still think that the best way of playing Super Mario Bros. would be via the original NES console and using either the original NES controller, the NES Dogbone controller, Super Controller, the NES Advantage, NES Max, Hyperstick Controller, Hyper Variable Speed Controller, the Roll & Rocker, Supersonic: The Joystick, the U-Force, Joycard Sanusui SSS, Zinger, Zipper, Zoomer, Power Glove, the NES Satellite, the NES 4 Score, the QuickShot joystick, Maverick 2, QuickShot QS-126 Joypad, The Game Handler and/or the Capcom Fighter Power Stick - but regardless of which version you play, you owe it to yourself to experience one of the true classics of gaming.
How the heck is this not your most popular video yet?
I dunno. Somehow a Sonic game wears that crown lol
Great Longplay, but bring back memories!!!
Der Toad sagt: Danke Mario! Aber die Prinzessin ist in einen anderen Schloss.
Could you post the All-Stars version of this game someday?
the only two problems I have with this game is that when you move to the right you can't move back to the left and when the game is on 2 players it's never player 2's turn unless player 1 dies and when it's player 2's turn it's never player 1's turn unless player 2 dies but aside from that Super Mario Bros. is a great game.
So 1980s…
Mario: (dies)
Pacman nes Favorite
I play Super Mario Bros on nes Classic Edition and switch online
Oh man i remember back when I was going on 4 in 1993 i used to play this with grandfather that's how i got into video games
Never heard of this one. It'll never catch on.
Given *this* comment section, I wouldn't be surprised if SMB1 never caught on to most people.
If you want to see the speed run skip to 33:54
19:47 Super Mario Bros 6-1
20:50 Super Mario Bros 6-2
22:30 Super Mario Bros 6-3
23:27 Super Mario Bros 6-4
Why didn't you preform 8-4 wrong warp?
As much as Mario jumps his leg muscles have to be as as the hulks
16:20 Super Mario Bros 5-1
17:05 Super Mario Bros 5-2

The historical significance of this game is ridiculous

How have you not played this game on your channel until now?!
