Super Mario Bros. 3

Often lauded as one of the greatest games ever made, Super Mario Bros. 3, the first “legitimate” sequel to the original Super Mario Bros., is revered for its feel and immersive gameplay. Developed by a team of 11 over the course of several years, its design and production was overseen and directed by video game legend Shigeru Miyamoto (known for his work on earlier Mario and Zelda titles). Previewed to audiences in the 1989 film The Wizard, Super Mario Bros. 3 was released in 1990 and became an instant success.
