Plot
Two brothers, Mario and Luigi, live in Brooklyn and run a plumbing company. They are called to fix someone's plumbing in their bathroom. But when they get there, they unknowingly discover a warp zone in the toilet. It is the reason why the toilet is clogged. But they accidentally activate it, and are transported into the Mushroom Kingdom. They are suddenly attacked by Goombas and Koopas. The brothers fight their way out of the army and escape. Then, they are met by Princess Peach, who takes them into the castle. The princess listen to the Mario Bros. story, and she tells them everything that is going on. She also explains that she is being hunted by Bowser. Bowser wants to kill the princess so he can steal the throne to the castle and rule The Mushroom Kingdom. Luigi is terrified, but Mario vows to protect the Princess from Bowser.

Later on, during the annual Mushroom parade, a time where the people celebrate the day of the creation of the Mushroom Kingdom, Bowser arrives with an army and viciously lays waste to the parade. He is then about to destroy the Princess, but Mario intervenes, much to Luigi's objections; he doesn't want Mario to get killed. Mario and Bowser fight, and Mario manages to repel Bowser, who warns Mario that they will meet again. Peach gives Mario and Luigi each a Fire Flower, a flower that gives them fire powers, as a token of her gratefulness.

Mario then decides to set up a "base of operations" as he says it. Luigi helps build a house with Mario next to the castle. Meanwhile, Bowser, still angry about his defeat, vows to destroy the pesky plumbers. His second-in-command, Kamek, suggests maybe they could steal the princess and they could come to him. Bowser agrees with Kamek's plan and orders his minions to get ready for another invasion in The Mushroom Kingdom. Bowser and his army go on a vicious rampage and destroy Toad Town and start laying siege to the castle. Mario and Luigi try to fight off the Koopas and Bowser, but it is no use. The castle is destroyed and Bowser kidnaps Princess Peach.

Of course, Mario and Luigi decide to rally the surviving Toads to join the upcoming battle. An army of Toads, led by Mario and Luigi, arrive at Bowser's castle and do battle. Bowser orders his minions to kill The advancing army and a battle ensuses. Mario and Luigi fight off wave after wave of Koopas and Goombas. Mario remembers the Fire Flowers Peach gave them, and tells Luigi to use them. They do, and gain fire powers. Using them, Mario and Luigi defeat the army of Koopas.

But it's not over yet. Bowser jumps into the fray, and battles Mario and Luigi. The Fire Flower power is useless against Bowser, because he can breathe fire. Bowser overpowers Mario and Luigi, but when it looks like Bowser is about to finish them off, the Toad Army jumps in and starts attacking Bowser by throwing stuff at him to keep him busy, and Mario and Luigi push Bowser into a lava pit, seemingly killing him. Peach decides to celebrate the Mario Bros. victory with a party at the castle, what's left of it anyways.

In a post-credits scene, a hand pops out of the lava, implying that Bowser survived his fall into the lava, hinting a possible sequel.
