Jazzman's Timeline
Have you ever wondered when the Mario Brothers games happened? Have you ever wondered if the Koopas ever get a break from fighting those pesky Marios? Well, this page is one guest's answer to all those questions. Here you'll find a complete... well... a timeline of events in Mario Bros. history. This page is run by me and my historian, (see Sergeant Flutter's Post) and it's always changing. After all, the games keep comin'!
1976 | The Mario Brothers arrive in Venice, Italy through a warp pipe and are adopted by their 20th-century-parents. |
1980 | The Mario Brothers move to Brooklyn and set up a plumbing shop. |

2274 |
Kamek tries once again to kidnap the Marios and turn them to his own needs. To prevent this from happening, the Mario Brothers are sent through a warp to the 20th century. Bowser, in his first independent act of meanness, steals the Yoshis' Super-Happy-Tree, only to have it taken back by the Yoshis. (Yoshi's Story) |

2297 | Bowser and Koopalings return to attack Mushroom Worlds (SMB3). After the Mario Brothers foil Bowser's plans, they and Princess Toadstool take a vacation to Dinoland, only to find that Bowser and his Koopalings are already there (SMW). Wario goes on his own adventure to steal a fortune in pirate treasure. (Super Mario Land 3) |
2298 | Bowser kidnaps Mario and attempts to destroy 20th century Earth (Mario is Missing). Bowser tries to destroy Earth in other time periods (Mario's Time Machine). First annual Mariokart races are held, and Bowser agrees to a temporary truce so he can compete. Hmmm.... he MUST have an ulterior motive... (Super Mariokart). Toad embarks on an adventure of his own to stop Wario from taking over a remote corner of Sarrasaland (Wario's Woods). Koopas abandon Darkland... for now. |
2299 | Smithy invades the Mushroom Kingdom, Geno of the Star Road begins patrols on Earth, and Monstro Town becomes a haven for Koopa Rebels (Mario RPG). Bowser steals the Power stars from Peach's castle, only to have them retaken by Mario (Mario 64). Second annual Mariokart races are held, and this time anything goes! Bowser competes again, and so does Wario. He just won't quit! (Mariokart 64) |
2300 | Bowser decides to look into the Star Road, and discovers the true source of wishes, Star Haven. Bowser invades Star Haven and steals the Star Rod (Paper Mario). Thanks to King Bowser for reminding me of this. |
