* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The [[VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros1 first game]] has ''several'' differences compared to its follow-ups that make it feel ''so'' different and unique.
** This game uses the engine and a number of assets from ''VideoGame/SuperMario64''[='s=] Nintendo DS remake two years prior, further showcasing the game's goal of introducing gameplay elements introduced in 3D ''Mario'' in the interim to 2D ''Mario'' and making it feel more closely connected to that game than to any of its successors. The game introduces the Triple Jump, Wall Jump and Ground Pound from Mario's movement in said game and pre-release footage of this game shows that the punching action was also initially going to be added as well before being ultimately cut, the models for Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Bowser are all taken from ''64 DS'' with certain alterations, the minigame mode returns with nearly every minigame from ''64 DS'' either intact or remade in this game's artstyle along with brand new additions, and the game reuses the "Buh bye!" and "It's-a me, Mario!" voice clips when closing and opening the DS while the game is running.
** This is the only game in the ''[[VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros New]]'' subseries to not have the Koopalings as the main bosses, but unique opponents like Mega Goomba, Mummy Pokey, Petey Piranha, and Monty Tank. Bowser also appears as early as the end of World 1. In the other games, he doesn't appear until the final boss battle, and in this game he doesn't have a second phase where he turns into a giant. [[OverlordJr Bowser Jr.]] appears as every tower's boss, and also lacks his Koopa Clown Car, initially acting like Boom Boom from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'' but in later worlds doing something that no other boss with the same weakness in ''Mario'' games does, when he sees that Mario is about to GoombaStomp him he retreats into his spiny shell so ''he'' [[HoistByHisOwnPetard takes damage instead]]. This piece of ArtificialBrilliance is also unique to this game and neither Jr. nor the Koopalings have done this either before or since.
** This is also the only game which has a new powerup that hasn't reappeared in any of its sequels in the Blue Shell.
** Ground pounding bosses would do double damage to them in this game. Later games would have ground pounds do normal damage to bosses to prevent cheesing. Also, ground pounding a Koopa Troopa or other shelled enemy will not instantly defeat them, but instead immediately sends them sliding.
** Unlike later NSMB games, Bowser was voiced by Creator/PeterCullen, via archival audio taken from a sound library; his roars had already been recorded and used decades earlier in films such as ''Film/KingKong1976'' and ''Film/Jaws2''. This was actually the standard for Bowser since ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'' ten years prior, and all of Bowser's voice clips in this game were ones previously used throughout the [=N64=] era. Following this game, Bowser's voice would instead be provided by a variety of in-house voice actors, each of whom would give Bowser a more human-like voice a-la his portrayal in ''VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine'', rather than Cullen's more overtly animal-like roars. Additionally, the "power-up loss" and "coin" sounds are reused from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1'' rather than ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld''.
** The first game also uses a completely different soundtrack from the one that debuted in the Wii game and was reused to varying degrees in the 3DS and Wii U entries. Despite the Koopalings’ absence in the first game, a remix of their boss fight from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'' is used for the end bosses, whereas the Wii and Wii U games use another remix of the ''[=SMB3=]'' fight for the mid-bosses instead. The 3DS game, meanwhile, features a remix of the Koopaling fight from ''Super Mario World'' for its mid-bosses.
** The game lacks a post-finale Special World, instead opting for bonus lettered levels within the existing worlds that can be unlocked pre-finale (although ''[[VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros2 NSMB2]]'' has both the lettered levels and bonus worlds but with only 6 main worlds). In fact, Worlds 4 and 7 are completely optional, only being accessible as a reward for challenging the World's boss in something akin to a Hard Mode by using Mini Mario; the former by beating the World 2 boss as Mini Mario, and the latter by either beating the World 5 boss as Mini Mario or using the Warp Cannon in World 4.
** Unlike the later three games, there is no multiplayer for the main campaign. Instead, the only multiplayer is for the "Mario vs. Luigi" mode (and the separate bonus minigames), which uses exclusive courses. There are also bonus minigames instead of alternate game modes.
** Blue and Yellow Toad are not playable in this game, only Mario and Luigi (and the latter brother is locked behind a ClassicCheatCode).
** Compared to the later games, the levels that feature warp cannons show elements of the World you're about to warp to (World 1's and 2's Warp Cannons having a snowy mountain background from World 5, World 3 having World 6's mountain background, World 4 having the Sky background commonly seen in World 7, and World 5 having World 8's ominous background)
** There is no quicksave feature, so you'll have to replay a tower/castle level or take advantage of Sleep Mode if you want to save before you beat the game, when the ability to save anytime is unlocked.
** The game has various unique obstacles and enemies not present in its sequels, of particular note regarding the obstacles, this is the only ''NSMB'' game with [[VideoGame/SuperMario64 Dorrie]] as a vehicle, [[VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld Moving Snake Blocks]] as platforms required to clear the level, and [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1 Castle Mazes]] with correct and incorrect paths.
** This is the only game in the NSMB series to have ''two separate castles'' each with their own boss (the regular castle having Dry Bowser, Bowser's Castle having the FinalBattle between Bowser and Bowser Jr.). While ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosU'' technically has two Castle levels, it's all within the corrupted Peach's Castle, and the first half ''doesn't even have a boss.''
** The normal final world also is different here compared to its follow-ups, with Bowser's domain entire first being a Haunted landscape world with enemies such as Crows and Pumpkins and half a Volcano world instead of purely a LethalLavaLand one like in the sequels.

The sub-series itself can be sub-divided into handheld games and console games. The handheld games have more of a single-player focus, with multiplayer either being a side feature or more of an afterthought, and the levels being more compact and the camera focused on one player but fairly static. The console games all have co-op multiplayer, with the default playable characters being Mario, Luigi, a Yellow Toad and a Blue Toad (with ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' adding the ability to play as Miis and Peachette (on its UpdatedRerelease, ''Deluxe''), and ''New Super Luigi U'' replacing Mario with Nabbit). The levels are more expansive, and the camera zooms in and out freely depending on how far apart the players are or if there are certain sections that require a wider camera. [[PowerUpMount Yoshis]] are rideable in the console games, though they are only level-specific and unable to follow the playable character after completing a level with them, unlike ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld''. ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' also adds Baby Yoshis from the aforementioned game, and those follow the player on the world map ''can'' be taken to other levels.

''New Super Mario Bros.'' is a series of platformers in the ''[[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]]'' franchise. They are 2D platformers in the vein of the classic [[UsefulNotes/The8bitEraOfConsoleVideoGames 8-bit]] and [[UsefulNotes/The16bitEraOfConsoleVideoGames 16-bit]] ''Mario'' platformers, in which Mario and Luigi go through levels jumping from platform to platform and [[GoombaStomp on top of enemies]] to defeat them on their way to SaveThePrincess, but updated with a few elements from the 3D games, primarily the WallJump and GroundPound. The graphical style is also done with polygonal models, putting it line with the 3D games. Each of the games have the same gameplay, mainly changing in terms of the power-ups given in each of the games.

* RevisitingTheRoots: After 10 years of collecting Stars and [[VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine Shine Sprites]], ''New Super Mario Bros'' and ''New Super Mario Bros Wii'' went back to the original ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1'' premise of having to reach the end of the stage, flagpole at the end and everything. This idea was so successful that ''VideoGame/SuperMario3DLand'' and ''VideoGame/SuperMario3DWorld'' wound up having the exact game design style transferred to 3-D.

However, the dev team did NOT think that players could use the Mega Mushroom against Bowser to instantly squash him. ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosWii'' has the same Bowser safeguard and excludes the Mega Mushroom, which forces players to fight Bowser the right way.
