Google Celebrates Super Mario Bros. 30th Anniversary With Easter Egg
Google is getting in on the Super Mario celebration today, as Nintendo celebrates the 30th anniversary of the plumber’s Famicom debut. Yesterday was the exact commemoration of Super Mario Bros.’ release, but that doesn’t mean the party needs to stop.
If you visit Google today and search for Super Mario Bros., the page looks fairly normal. The difference is the glowing question block on the right side.
Go ahead. Give it a click or 100.
For more on this momentous anniversary, check out our Replay from Saturday featuring Super Mario World, our review of Super Mario Maker, and a video of the game’s creators looking back on their work. You can also check out a roundup of our Super Mario review scores.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
