This article was promoted to GA way back in 2007, when a lot of VG-related Wikipedia articles were filled with stuff that could now fail at WP:GAMECRUFT. For this reason, the article appears to have a ton of issues: some of the "Alternate versions" section (not all) is completely unsourced, the article is way too detailed and poorly written, and the "Reception" section is short and somewhat vague. Another major concern I have is that too much of the article is sourced to TheMushroomKingdom, which is an unreliable source (it is used on All Nippon Night SMB, SMBDX, and the "ports" section). For these reasons, I think Super Mario Bros. doesn't really meet the standards for GA today. ~ TheJoebro64 ( talk) 22:59, 20 May 2017 (UTC)
Based on the 6 new levels for Vs. Super Mario Bros., I think the arcade port of Super Mario Bros. was more or less an early prototype of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. 2601:203:C281:28F0:E152:4930:7CB:616E ( talk) 00:54, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

That first link for the North American release for super Mario bros. is not too reliable for the exact date since for every game listed, it includes the month and year for their release, including the games that had a confirmed launch day in North American. So I suggest we remove that first source and keep the second one as its from Nintendo themselves. 1ArcticDude ( talk) 07:17, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
I was looking around on the Nintendo Switch Online app on Nintendo Switch and I found out it tells you what time the games were released when going to the classic games menu on the app. According to that it tells us the US release date was 10/18/1985. I think this is good information to use MadeForLosers ( talk) 14:47, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
