“The Super Mario Bros. Movie” is officially the first film of the year to cross the coveted $1 billion milestone at the global box office.

Universal/Illumination’s “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” continues to show “Top Gun: Maverick”-esque legs with $58.2 million grossed in its third weekend, pushing its box office totals to $434 million domestic and $871 million worldwide.

Super Mario Bros stars Chris Pratt and Charlie Day play moustachioed plumbers Mario and Luigi, who find themselves transported from Brooklyn into Mushroom Kingdom where they must save Princess Peach and stop King Koopa from taking over the world.

We really can't wait to finally hear what it sounds like.

Super Mario Bros. 3 is an all-time classic, and particularly impressive when you consider the technology it relied upon. The 16-bit SEGA Genesis was right around the corner in Japan by the time the Famicom version launched in Japan, for example, yet Nintendo delivered what was a huge step up for its flagship series.

The final addition to the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster has finally entered the arena, as Sora from Kingdom Hearts caps off a massive 89 fighter roster. The road to this final fighter has been an interesting one, highlighted by surprise reveals and iconic trailers that garnered massive reactions from fans throughout the world.

Some purists might sneer at the idea of playing retro games in anything other than their original 4:3 aspect ratio. But for anyone else, a new widescreen hack for Super Mario World means you can now enjoy the 1990 game on modern displays, without having to put up with black bars or a weirdly stretched image.

For years now, Super Mario Bros. The Movie Archive has been working to obtain and restore a bunch of deleted scenes from Nintendo’s 1993 disaster. That work is now largely done, leaving us with a sort of “director’s cut” of the film that runs for 20 minutes longer than the original.

The swan song before March 31st. The end of the month is almost upon us and several gadgets and games dedicated to our beloved mustachioed plumber , who last year celebrated his 35th birthday, will disappear forever from shelves around the world. Among the titles destined to abandon us there will also be the nice free to play online Super Mario Bros. 35 .

After eight months of delays, Japan’s Super Nintendo World theme park attraction will finally open next week, Universal Studios Japan has announced.

This follows a test period during which invited guests and special ticket holders were allowed in.

Nintendo is celebrating Super Mario Bros.’ 35th anniversary in style, with plans to release a compilation of popular games in the franchise as well as a Game & Watch handheld for the festivities. Coming Nov. 13 as a throwback to the 1980 device, the Game & Watch will let fans play the original game, as well as Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. Pretty neat!
