A little school Help

[Epocilyps]

Ok, I need help on a project and need some help for school. I am in a video game design class and need to find some things out. The class just started off, so I need to do some research, and I'm doing it on Super Mario Bros.(the first game) I need to know: 1) the size of the development team and their roles, 2) The cost of development, and 3)_ the development time line, or basically, how long it took and the phases the game went through. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance to all who can help.

Here's a good place to start: Super Mario Bros. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As well as: IGN

Miyamoto spent so much time perfecting Mario, he was forced to put R&D4's other major project - The Legend of Zelda - on hold, and cede much of Wrecking Crew, a Famicom game staring the brothers Mario, to others.

Google's always a good place too: history of super mario brothers - Google Search

Good luck. You're probably going to have a hard time finding those exact answers. You may even want to try contacting Nintendo directly through their website. It's probably a long-shot, but you never know what info they'd send you.
