The minute details of such a short trailer could be hard to notice, even for the most hardcore of fans. That is why below, the most interesting tidbits and secrets that were hidden in plain sight in the trailer are mentioned below. If you are a long-time fan of the Mario franchise, some details may bring back memories. 

5 secrets hidden in Super Mario Bros Trailer

#1 The locations are real!

All the locations that were shown in the trailer were in fact based on real-life locations in Brooklyn, New York. Even the map that was shown for a second in the trailer, gives a tease about this detail. 

If you focus more minutely, you can find many names on the map that give references to other games and products under Nintendo’s banner. Like the Hanfuda cards, Punch Out game, and a Mushroom Planet reference as well. There was also a street named 1889th Street, giving homage to the year Nintendo was created.

#2 The theme song

The theme song or the rap segment presented throughout the video is actually from the classic animated Super Mario television show. It was the opening song of each of the episodes. This television show holds a lot of significance, as it was one of the main motivations for the characteristics of Mario and Luigi.

#3 The Logo on the Van 

The logo on the van is another homage to the games. The Brand name of Mario’s in-universe plumbing used the iconic fonts that have been used in most of the game’s promotional material and box art. Even the image of Mario beside the logo is also from the classic box arts. 

#4 Luigi’s scared face

Luigi’s scared face in the trailer is straight up from the cover of his beloved gaming franchise, Luigi’s Mansion. While Mario is seen as the main protagonist of the mainline SMB games, Luigi’s Mansion gave the spotlight to the second lead and gave him a mission to save the day. 

#5 The SBM Plumbing website

At the end of the commercial, the lady shared that customers can call to reach out to the brothers or get in touch on the world wide web. While the provided phone number was clearly a made-up one, the website that was shared was actually real. It can be accessed through the URL, www.SMBPlumbing.com.
