Super Mario Bros' Controls Were Originally Different
By Dr. Evelyn Reed | January 01, 0001 | 7 min read
In Super Mario Bros., the “A” button is jump, and the “B” button is run or shoot fireballs. It 
wasn’t always that way. The original plan for Super Mario Bros. was quite different. For example, it involved shooting. A booklet included in the Wii title “Super Mario Collection Special Pack” shows just how different.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); https://kotaku.com/super-mario-used-to-shoot-bullets-5668710 The booklet has the joy rummy original design documents Miyamoto drew up for the game. In 
the document, the controls are listed as:
• Left button made Mario walk left. • rummy new app Right button made Mario walk right. • Up button made Mario jump. • Down button made Mario crouch (this wasn’t finalized). • B button made Mario run or speed up, but when he has a rocket, B would propel him.
• A button was the attack input, but depended on rummy nobel if he had a weapon like a rifle or a “beam” gun. If not, Mario would kick. A rocket-riding, beam-gun carrying, rifle-wielding, drop-kicking Mario? Believe.
