The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 is an American animated television series based on the video game Super Mario Bros. 3. It aired on NBC with Captain N: The Game Master in a programming block titled "Captain N & The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3" from September 8, 1990 to December 1, 1990. It is the second of the three TV shows based on the video game, with the others being The Super Mario Bros. Super Show and Super Mario World.

Unlike its predecessor, this series has no live-action segments and features entirely new voice actors, with the exceptions of and Harvey Atkin, who reprised their roles as Toad and King Koopa. DIC Entertainment produced this series while Nintendo provided the characters and power-ups.

In 1 July 2015, the show was re-released to Steam by Cinedigm.

The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 focuses on Mario, Luigi, Toad and Princess Toadstool, who reside in the Mushroom World. Most of the episodes revolve around the four characters' efforts to prevent the attacks made by King Koopa and his seven Koopalings to take over Princess Toadstool's Mushroom Kingdom.

Like The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, the animation was done by Sei Young Animation Co., Ltd.; however this show was co-produced by Italian studio Reteitalia S.P.A., hence the slight differences in character design.
