In retro news, I'm celebrating the 41st birthday of Mario Bros., the arcade cabinet that lauched a plumbing empire. Partially inspired by some of Joust's mechanics (and an Italian-********* landlord hounding Nintendo for rent), Mario Bros. was a non-scrolling arena affair that was quite addictive, especially in simultaneous two-player. Interestingly, it was made by a tiny team of just five people, all of whom were credited in its great, great, great, (great) grandchild, Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Sadly, we'd rarely see such a lineage occur in modern game development, given how lay off happy this industry has become.
