The Beginnings: Mario and Luigi's Emergence
Born in the unrestrained creativity of Nintendo, Mario (and later Luigi) first appeared in the 1981 arcade game "Donkey Kong." Originally known as "Jumpman," Mario was a carpenter tasked with saving a damsel in distress from a giant ape, setting the stage for his future role as a plumber.
It wasn't until 1985, however, that the beloved character stepped into his plumber garb and embarked on his first major adventure—σφԻφ of the original "Super Mario Bros" game for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). This classic side-scrolling platformer established Mario's legacy as a pop culture icon, catapulting him into countless sequels, spin-offs, and even children's literature.
