Mario Bros. is a Game & Watch Multi Screen series game by Nintendo released in 1983. Despite the title, it is unrelated in gameplay to the Mario Bros. arcade game. The game was also ported to the Commodore 64 as Mario Bros. II. In this game, Luigi is on the left screen and Mario is on the right screen. The game clamshell design is unusual in the series; it opens horizontally like a book (in the Japanese right to left reading order) and not vertically (like the Nintendo DS). The brothers are working in a bottling plant, moving packages between the various levels of the bottling machine. The only controls for the game are up and down buttons for each brother. Mario first gets a pallet out of the machine on the lowest level and puts in on the conveyor belt. Luigi then takes it from the other side and puts it on the belt above it. There are 3 points on each side the brothers must do this. Finally, once the package is filled Luigi tosses it onto the delivery truck. Once the truck is full, the brothers get a short break. If the brothers drop a pallet, they are yelled at by their bosses. If three pallets are dropped, the game will end. In the remakes of this game for Game & Watch Gallery 3 and 4, Mario and Luigi are catching what becomes a cake, which is boxed and wrapped up for delivery (with Wario portraying the delivery man). The remakes add a new twist to the game by having Bowser, who waits at the top middle of the screen, cause the conveyor belt to reverse on occasion, forcing Mario and Luigi to correct it with switches placed at their sides. Like nearly all Game & Watch titles, Mario Bros. features the standard Game A and tougher Game B.
