Baby Mario Metal

Here We Go!!

I know, the title of this article is slightly confusing, but it's not a metal skin for the spin-off character "Baby Mario". Actually, the article is about a Japanese Rock group called "Baby Metal" Which is getting it's very own Super Mario Maker costume. I know, it's sort of ridiculous how properties that seemingly have nothing to do with videogames at all are getting Super Mario Maker Costumes, but I suppose we'll just have to endure this strange addition to the game. This video is a Japanese announcement so I cannot yet confirm it for North America but it'll be pretty obvious when it's out in North America so I won't be updating the post when it is out.

live Action Donkey Kong

Here We Go!!

The last live action video we covered mixed Star Wars with Mario on YouTube, now I'm sharing a new video by  MyNameIsBanks. It's the original Donkey Kong arcade game made into a short film, but it's not quite accurate as they wanted to move on and make something where it's in a series of videos, at the end they make known their next video will be a short film of Super Mario Maker, somehow using Pauline instead of Peach in that series, which in Mario Maker there is now Princess rescue, it's just about the levels. So I have no idea how that's going to work. A lot of it was in time with the background music more than anything, and the maker of the video put their name throughout it, and it probably would've been better without that. But to make a story using the game, It was very cinematic, I must say it was very well done, looking forward to the next one.

Animatronic Mario

Here We Go!!

This looks neat, but it doesn't do ANYTHING!! It just blinks it's eyes and moves a bit, there's even a Super Mushroom candy container that spins for absolutely no reason at all. What I don’t understand at all is why didn’t they use more animations and vocals, there are so many pre-recorded Mario vocals from Charles Martinet, they could’ve used vocals from youtube videos, chopped them up and put them in, with it only saying one thing it’s slightly creepy. They could’ve made the user interact using the D-Pad and/or A & B Buttons.

You're De' Super Star-Wars

For those that love Star Wars and Nintendo, you probably already know about this because the video is blowing up the internet. rizenvisual has created a mixture of animation, bringing Mario and Star Wars together in a comedic fashion. Released just three days ago, here it is: "Star Wars Mario Squadron" A certain other Nintendo character may also make a small cameo.

Mario Maintenance

Here We Go!!

Maintenance has been scheduled for The Super Mario Maker game's servers on Wednesday, April 20th from 6:00 PM - to 8:00 PM Pacific Time. This maintenance may have something to do with user's previous complaints on having their courses removed, but it also may be entirely unrelated to that. We'll see as the time comes for the maintenance to commence.

Mini Deals

Here We Go!!

OK, so earlier on somewhere people were given early access to Mini Mario and Friends amiibo Challenge for WiiU and 3DS if they purchased an amiibo at participating Gamestop locations, now according to Nintendo is allowing ANYONE to download it free on April 28th. No offense to Nintendo, but why is it FREE if we had to buy an amiibo to get it previously? What kind of promo is that!? I just think that was awful, so many had to try and get it from codes their friends got on Facebook because they couldn't afford additional amiibo at the time, and now the game will be FREE to download. INCREDIBLE. However, the game does force you to have amiibo to use it so it utilizes amiibo quite well, I own it and have enjoyed it so far.

Mario and Luigi toys at SONIC!?

Here We Go!!
OK, so we've all known that Mario and Sonic have had a long-time rivalry, but now the SONIC restaurants (yes it's a joke) will be having Mario And Luigi Paper Jam toys. Starting today the Sonic Wacky Pack Kids meals will include one of 5 toy sets. Paper Mario and Mario and Luigi are both spin-off games, Paper Mario barely comes close to the actual Mario while the Mario and Luigi series makes a distant resemblance of the real Super Mario franchise/brand. Some of these toys look like toys I'd collect, if you're looking for new Mario toys.. Check Sonic. But we've eaten there before, they're not that good. I prefer Mcdonalds, Checkers/Rally's or (of course) Burger King. Funny though, the Sonic Drive Ins Site currently still says they offer "Teen Titans Go" Toys... Some website editor needs to make an update, and faster than Sonic.

Gotta Go Fast (Sonic Pun)

Here We Go!!

Sorry we're late, but we were obviously last to get this news somehow, but we've also been pretty busy too. So, the world record speedrun using every shortcut and thing available was conquered this month (April 2015) by Darbian who is a LIVE streamer on YouTube/Twitch. He beat the record by mere seconds, but he did it!! The new record is 4:57.260 the old one was 4:57.693

Karting at Sea, it's happening now.

Here We Go!!

Norwegian Joy is Norwegian Cruise Line's new cruise ship, engineered from Germany for China, and man, one feature (breifly shown) stands out above the rest. It seems that They've taken the idea straight from The Daisy Cruiser course from Mario Kart Double Dash.

it's most likely that only just the inspiration was taken from Mario Kart, sadly, the karts and track seem to have no connection to the franchise "Super Mario" whatsoever. The track does seem to have taken some from the Mario Kart games, perhaps the ones who engineered it all were avid Gamers,
I wonder if their carts have gliders and can go underwater..

Mushrooms Are on SALE!!

Here We Go!!

The Mushrooms title was a joke...

"We have a Coca-Cola distributor who comes to us and creates these really interesting designs for us," Hughes, 24, told ABC News. "Mario came up last Tuesday and he's been hanging out ever since."~Austin Hughes

Now that's what I call "POP-art". Sorry I had to. I just had to say it. The Orange Street Farm Food market in Missoula, Montana has a guy that comes in and makes displays like this one from pop twelve packs. This news was obtained from ABC, what I don't understand is that the display was mentioned as being Mario Luigi and Toadstool. I can only assume that the reporter has no real knowledge of Super Mario because that is clearly a Super Mushroom floating over a Warp Pipe. That made me laugh a bit on the inside.

Pre-Order UK Mario Promo

Here We Go!!
The UK is adding some SUPER incentive to pre-order Mario & Sonic at The Rio 2016 olympics for the 3DS. When you pre-order from the UK, you'll also get the elusive and highly collectible Mario hat, as in the one from Club Nintendo before it shut down. This opportunity is epic, if I could temporarily switch my residency to buy this game, I would just to get the cap. It's authentic!!
