Super Mario Bros Fan Edit Restores 20-Minutes of Deleted Scenes
Released back in 1993, Super Mario Bros (the film) wasn’t exactly a classic.

Super Mario Bros Speedrun Achieves the Seemingly Impossible!
Back in 2018, speedrunner ‘Kosmic‘ set a new world record for Super Mario Bros of 4:55.913 in what was largely described as ‘the perfect run’. Ever since this was achieved though, many have debated whether it was humanly possible to get that time even lower! Of course, it was always…

Super Mario Bros Battle Royale Game Releases for Free
Super Mario Battle Royale After nearly 30 years worth of attempts, I have pretty much come to the conclusion that I may never beat the original Super Mario Bros. While disappointing, it’s a conclusion that I have (mostly) learned to admit, live with and grudgingly accept. It is, however, mildly…

Animated Super Mario Bros. Heading to the Big Screen
A New Super Mario Bros. Movie The last time an official Super Mario Bros. movie hit theaters was in 1993 and did not exactly turn out well. In fact, not only was it a critical failure, it was a box office failure as well. It only earned $20M domestically with…
