I seriously think Nintendo came up with a Super Mario "Tetris 99-like game" and wanted a reason to release it. "HEY, its the Super Mario franchise's 35th this year...lets make it 35 players instead of trying to get 99 players on there. Yep, sounds good to me." I'm pretty sure that's basically it. The same year was Mario's 40 year anniversary, so they could have gone for a nice round number if they wanted to, instead of going by the anniversary of one of his more iconic games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget about about Black box sticker sealed SMB. The true first Mario is Donkey Kong Arcade. Does VGA grade arcade cabinets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,697 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 I'm a firm believer that the Mario that appears in the original Donkey Kong is Mario and Luigi's Dad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
