You take control of Mario as player 1, or Luigi as player 2, as they attempt to rid the sewers of the pipe pests. Controlling the brothers is simply a matter of pushing left and right to make them run, or pressing the A button to make them jump. Momentum is a factor in Mario Bros. and the brothers don't exactly stop on a dime, especially if their is ice beneath their feet so plan accordingly. Jumping allows the brothers to reach higher pipes, but if a pipe is overhead, they punch a bump in to the pipe that can knock a pest back, or even on it's head. The only thing that the brothers can safely touch are coins. | You take control of Mario as player 1, or Luigi as player 2, as they attempt to rid the sewers of the pipe pests.
