The story of Punch Ball Mario Bros., as told in the instruction manual: [scan of manual in Japanese] The gameplay is nearly identical to Mario Bros., except that Mario has a ball. Translation of the story: At some point, humans gained the ability to use tools... At first, they were simple things using the bones of animals and fragments of rock. Using their wisdom, humans improved their tools. Harnessing fire, wind, and nowadays even atomic energy, they began to build up a sophisticated culture. On the other hand, however, there are people who still only use stone. How do they catch game and defend themselves from outsiders? Using only their strong jumping power and stone spheres. They use those skillfully to defend themselves. Here, we introduce two such people. It seems their names are Mario and Luigi. Will they ever learn about sophisticated culture?

The 1984 Japan-only Punch Ball Mario Bros. for home computers features a bizarre story in which Mario and Luigi are presented as primitive humans with "no knowledge of sophisticated culture" who have not developed any tools except for balls.

The next evening when he went to bed he looked at the factory and said sleepily, ‘Please let there be fun… please let there be fun…’. And that night, his dream showed him a powerful, happy, fun-loving gorilla who led Nathaniel to wondrous places… and did exactly what Nathaniel told him. Nathaniel was having fun.
