[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk9oa_PiXAk[/youtube] Best line from the parody: “Never bring a hammer to a gunfight.” Warning: Somebody drops both an s-bomb and b-bomb in the video. Viewer discretion advised. (Thanks, Josh)
Super Mario Sunshine: What went wrong?
Released in 2002 for GameCube, Super Mario Sunshine was by no means a bad game. But it wasn’t great either — far from the caliber of other Mario games. Anyone who says otherwise needs to take their Mario Goggles off. (Miyamoto is capable of releasing at least one dud, right? Two if you count Wii Music.) Whatever your opinion of the game, I think it’s safe to say Sunshine is def...
What’s next for Mario?
Save for 2002, those are all really great games. I wonder where Mario will go next. You?
Forget game of the year. Mario All-Stars Wii a shoe-in for box of the year award.
Gift wrap not included. But everything else about the $30 collectible with four really sweet retro remakes is consumer ready. To see more, get clicky with it.
Awkward title, great game”¦and DS auto pilot!
It looks like a modest little puzzle game. It waits for you, secretly chuckling. You have no idea how much fun you’re about to have. When you start Mario Vs.

As you play, the game’s...

Steamboat Mario
Oh, Mario. Epic Mickey looks like it will be pretty good, but it won’t be that good. You don’t have to dress up like someone you’re not. Don’t feel threatened. Everything will be fine. Feel content knowing a third party’s game could be one of the highlights of the holiday season on a system you helped make strong.
Club Nintendo’s latest reward is…kinda cool…
If you’ve joined Club Nintendo, and have been registering your first-party games (and if not, why not?), a new reward has become available in the company club store. 300 Club Nintendo coins will get you a Mario Sensu (folding fan), which will start shipping October 25th.
