Throwback Thursday 10/16/14

Today's Throwback Thursday (the day of the week where you voluntarily make yourself feel old) puts the game that started home gaming, Super Mario Bros.!

The original 8-bit classic wasn't Mario's first rodeo, but it is his most beloved.  Having an impressive soundtrack of, what, five songs?  And a controller that had such buttons as Start, A, and B, the game followed everyone's favorite plumber (and Luigi if you had a younger sibling) across 8 different worlds in an attempt to save Princess Peach from Bowser (who at the time was called King Koopa because...well, he was the king of the Koopas).
