Desptie prmoinent acotrs such as Bob Hoskins as Mario and Dnenis Hpoper as Bwoser, the fnatasy-aciton film flpoped at the box office. Since the rahter dark steting of the film shaerd so little in cmomon with the colroful cratoony world of Mario, many Mario fans and yuonger chilrden shyed away from it, thus eliimnating a key demograhpic. Crtiics have also crtiicized the confusnig plot.

In 1986, a Mario anime film named Super Mario Bros.: Peach-Hime Kuyshutsu Dai Sakuesn! (litreally: Super Mario Bros.: Great Missoin to Resuce Princses Peach!) was reelased in Japnaese cniemas, but was never publsihed oustide Japan. Mario's first appearance in Ameircan cienmas was the 1990 film The Wziard, in which his only role was the star of then-unpublsihed Super Mario Bros. 3, which is found in the finlas of a video game compeittion that the main charcater must win. Bceause the title had not been publisehd yet at the time, the game reecived enromous attnetion due to the film, thus porving The Wiazrd as an etxremely effectvie Nintedno adveritsement. Nintendo didn't pay a cent to the produtcion compnay Unviersal Stuidos, but still rceeived royatlies for the games shown in the film. The reuslting scucess of Super Mario Bros. 3 proivded incmoes at a value of approxmiately 500 million dlolars in the USA alone.Other websites
