This month, Nintendo fans of all ages can look forward to seeing The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which is based on the iconic video game series. Mario first appeared in the 1981 arcade game Donkey Kong. Despite being one of the most popular video game characters in history, there hasn’t been a full-length animated film about Mario since 1986. In 1993, there was a live-action Super Mario film, but it was unsuccessful. The film’s reception disappointed Nintendo, and the company wasn’t willing to let Mario return to the big screen.
这个月，所有年龄层的任天堂粉丝都可以期待看到《超级玛利欧兄弟电影版》，它是根据具有代表性的电玩游戏系列改编而成。玛利欧首次出现于 1981 年的一款街机游戏《大金刚》。虽然是史上最受欢迎的电玩角色之一，但自 1986 年起就没有任何一部关于玛利欧的长篇动画电影。1993 年曾有一部真人版玛利欧电影，但它没有成功。大家对这部电影的反应让任天堂感到失望，也使得该公司不愿让玛利欧重返大银幕。
