Story

Set in 1993, Bowser is in possession of a time machine. He went back in time to steal many artifacts from the past, and placed them in what will be the greatest museum of all time. If the items aren't returned soon, history will be changed forever. It's up to Mario to stop Bowser from completing his collection.^{[citation needed]} In the PC and SNES version, Bowser's Museum is in his castle. In the NES version, however, it's a separate building. Also in the NES version, Yoshi accompanies Mario, but Yoshi goes too far ahead and gets captured by Bowser. This version includes the statue of Bowser and a statue of a whole body part and pictures (or paintings) of Yoshi and Donkey Kong Junior and a statue of a star. The time machine is also different in each version. In the original PC version, it was metallic-looking. The SNES version was thicker and golden. The NES version was just an ordinary pipe with a tube in it. In the end, Mario has all important items back to their time and, in the NES version, saves Yoshi after defeating Bowser. In other versions, there are two endings; one where Bowser, although defeated, escapes to "Paradise 1993", and the other, where the time machine malfunctions and Bowser ends up in what appears to be the prehistoric era, getting pummeled by a dinosaur.^{[citation needed]} 1993 (MCMXCIII) was a common year starting on Friday of the Gregorian calendar and marked the Beginning of the International Decade to Combat Racism and Racial Discrimination (1993-2003). ...

In the PC and SNES version, Mario traveled between times via a surfing minigame. The SNES version took advantage of Mode 7, and included whirlpools. In the NES version, Mario had to go through a Mario Bros.-esque minigame to get an item and gain access to the time machine. The term Mode 7 originated on the Super NES video game console, on which it describes a simple texture mapping graphics mode that allows a background layer to be rotated and scaled. ...
