Even if you don't count DK because he was called Jumpman (and supposedly a carpenter AFAIK), there is still Mario Bros. from 1983...
Yeah...this morning there was even a short item on BNR (Business News Radio, go figure) about it.
Luckely they indeed mentioned the DK arcade game and that he was really older than 25...
The addition SUPER doesn't make him any younger.He was born in 1981, even if he didn't have the name, ALL his well known features were already there. Mario is 29. I always thought he was older
