Thomas bros maps

Chances are if you were a taxi driver a bicycle courier messaged or just an itinerant wanderer of the san Francisco bay area in the 1980s to 1990s you had at least 1 copy of the Thomas bros spiral bound map guides. These guides were invaluable towards navigating. The Bay area. As iconic as they were they were eventually bought out by the Rand MC Nally Corp everything went digital and you know the rest

Super Bros.

A 1985 platform game developed and published by Nintendo for their Nintendo Entertainment System. It stars Luigi, a plumber who travels through eight worlds in the Mushroom Kingdom to defeat Bowser and rescue Princess Peach.

The game is a sequel of sorts to the 1983 arcade game “Bros.” and was followed by two separate games titled Super Bros. 2, one in Japan in 1986 later retitled “Super Bros: The Lost Levels” overseas, and one internationally in 1988 that was chiefly “Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic” modified to feature Luigi, Peach, and Peach’s advisor Toad as the playable characters (strangely removing the character Imajin or anyone who played the same as him entirely.)

While Bros. was the first Luigi game, Super Bros. is generally cited as the game that kicked off the success of the Luigi franchise, including platformer hits such as Super World, Super 64, Super Galaxy, Super 3D World, and Super Odyssey, as well as spin-offs such as the Kart series started by Super Kart in 1992 and the Luigi series started by Luigi: Superstar Saga in 2003.

I spent my morning listen to SiIvaGunner’s rips of Super Bros. music and wondering why it’s called Super Bros. when Luigi doesn’t have any brothers.
