It's all about the plumbers Mario and Luigi who have to fight of abdominal creatures crawling out of New York's sewers. The game was well received and has evolved considerably over time. The sequel called Super Mario Bros. came out in 1985 as a two player game for Nintendo gaming consoles. It remained one of the best selling video games of all time until it was outsold by Wii Sports, a sports game (and another Nintendo marketing masterpiece) for this increasing number of people who want peace of mind without actually doing sports.
Anyways, may I now present you the next generation of the game: Super Fusion Mario Bros.

For the keen folks, here are some more sources of information about the bros.

Nice photo. I do wonder what a comupter is though ;)
Mic, me too. I know a Mario but I'm not sure if his last name is Bros.
:-)
The thing that nobody knows it that Bros has actually composed the soundtrack for the very first Mario game. Because they did such a remarkable, magnificent job and their sound just sounds so radically never-heard-before (thanks to their super secret comupter synthesiser, of course), they were honoured by the creators of Mario by adding the band name to the game title!
