Super Mario Bros. is an iconic video game from the 80s and 90s that has amassed a huge fan base over the years. It was one of the first video games that many millennials played and the generation still holds fond memories close to their heart. The game’s success was not limited to the gaming world, as it also inspired a movie that was released in 1993. Fast forward to 2023, and the Super Mario Bros.
