Video games are the best to have a good time, but some of them are a classic like Mario Bross that for more than 30 years has been very popular worldwide and still continues to cause a great impression and good entertainment.
With the same animation, same clothes and appearance Mario Bross has been able to deliver on his mission. However, with that unconscious adventurous conviction, he has been able to adapt to the different airs of the interactive entertainment industry. During all these years, Super Mario Bross has sold more than 310 million units, being a reference for the creators and becoming a symbol of popular culture.
How is it possible that a plumber of few pixels has been maintained today?
They say that his success and cultural relevance is due to the fact that he has many roles, but one of them is his normality, that is to say, his image as an everyday hero that anyone can easily identify with. Without leaving aside that it has many features to make it recognizable, but we have to complete it with our imagination, because it does not speak and we do not really know where he is from or what he does in a fantasy world, which makes it a very funny mystery for users.
Without haste or weird experiments, this character has easily adapted to portable gaming, three dimensions, game sharing and even currently also to the youtuber phenomenon with Super Mario Maker, a title designed to share on social networks. In fact, they mention that this ability to adapt allows him not only to keep updating visually without ceasing to be recognizable, but also to adapt to all kinds of game mechanics and in turn to very different audiences.
It is not a secret that Mario existed before, because the character appeared in Donkey Kong in 1981. A game for arcade machines starring a big gorilla that kidnaps the beloved of the mustachioed worker, then called Jumpman.
With the technological advance that we currently have, Mario Bross has managed to reach mobile devices, in which you can live a unique experience, play with friends and others. So, as time goes by, this game will also adapt to it, so it can last for another 30 years, which is incredible!
I must admit that I have been a fan of this great game since I was a little girl and I have never stopped loving it. It is interesting that this game is easily adapted to what is used or seen today, still having that bit of entertainment and ease.
