The backstory to ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' is in the game's manual. [[Bowser]] has expanded upon his plot as he wants to not only take over [[Mushroom Kingdom]] but the seven kingdoms in the [[Mushroom World]] at large. Bowser's children, the [[Koopalings]], each go into a kingdom, steal a [[Kings (Mario)|King's]] [[Magic wand (Mario franchise)|magic wand]], and use it to transform him into another creature. [[Mario]] and his younger brother [[Luigi]] begin their adventure to defeat the Koopalings and return the stolen magic wands to each King, freeing his kingdom. | |||
Unlike ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] is not kidnapped immediately, and she sometimes sends items to Mario and Luigi. She is kidnapped right before Mario and Luigi access the eighth and final world, [[Dark Land]], which they learn of upon receiving a [[Letter (Mario)|letter]] they get from Bowser. | |||
