The 8 Bit Club led by Wart are the main antagonists of the 1987 platform game Dream Factory: Doki Doki Panic (夢工場:ドキドキパニック Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panikku) and its 1988 port Super Mario Bros. 2, as well as the latter's remake Super Mario Advance, and the Japanese exclusive sequel to it BS Super Mario USA. They are also the secondary antagonists of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! where they serve as generals of the Koopa Pack as instead of Wart leading them they instead have King Koopa.
They are a group of monsters who seeks to dominate the realm of the Subcon.
It is stated in the manual for Super Mario Bros. 2 that they were created by Wart messing with the Dream Machine, though some members such as Tryclyde were originally recruited from outside the group.
Wart uses his army to help him conquer the Subcon. In response to Wart's invasion, the people of Subcon contacted Mario and pleaded for his help in defeating Wart. Mario, along with Luigi, Peach and Toad, later found his way to the Subcon. The four fought and defeated the major members of Wart's army (Mouser, Clawgrip, Fryguy, Birdo, Robirdo and Tryclyde) before eventually reaching Wart himself and defeating him using vegetables, freeing Subcon from the 8 bits' grasp.
However, in BS Super Mario Bros. USA, it is revealed that the 8 bits escaped after their defeat and laid low in another dream. Eventually, they invade Subcon once more, forcing its King to ask for Mario's help once again. Like in Super Mario Bros 2, Mario and co. venture through Subcon and defeat the 8 bits and Wart.

Trivia[]
Their name is a reference to the size of the Ricoh 2A03/2A07 processor's CPU registers: 8 bits.
Some of the species in the 8 Bit Club would later be seen in the Koopa Troop working for Bowser, which include are Bob-Ombs, Shyguys, Pokeys, snifits and Ninjis.
In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, King Koopa is the substitute for Wart.
The 8 Bit Club don't appear in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and the Super Mario World cartoon and are replaced by the Koopa Kids.
