Mario and Luigi were the local pesky plumbers of the Brooklyn/Queens-based Super Mario Bros. Plumbing. The catastrophe begins with fixing the water main. The job's just finished for them underground, but, by surprise, the brothers discover a mysterious pipe and are transported down and warped into a magical new world of Power-Up Land, separating the two in the process. Mario embarks on an epic quest to rescue Luigi from the clutches of the evil king Bowser and his minion army. His evil plan is to conquer the entire Land, collecting the grand stars from a ruler from each kingdom. His next target: the Mushroom Kingdom, in which he will marry its strong-willed ruler - Princess Peach.
