When I turned 7, my brother and I got this game for our birthday from my Nanny and Papa. My brother and I were super stocked when we got it because it had Yoshi in it and he was in Super Mario World! Once we got the game started I became a little disappointed because… Read More NES Review – Yoshi
My brother and I would survive our houseboat adventures during our summers by playing our Game Boy. While we really enjoyed the Donkey Kong game for Game Boy, it wasn’t a traditional platforming game. We soon discovered this gem, and I have been playing it ever since! In terms of story, the game follows Mario… Read More Game Boy Review – Super Mario Land
I know the Wii U isn’t exactly a “retro” console – but for all intent and purpose – its time has passed! I loved the Wii U – it was unique and had a bunch of exclusive games that really made it worth having. Many didn’t believe that thought and it never became a hit.… Read More Wii U Review – New Super Mario Bros U
When I first got my NES when I was 6, I didn’t realize the Super Mario Bro’s wasn’t the first game with Mario in it. In fact, there had been a couple of games released like the arcade classic Donkey Kong that starred Mario. Today I am goin to talk to you guys about another… Read More NES Review – Mario Bros

I knew right then and there that I HAD TO HAVE IT, and so my brother… Read More N64 Review – Super Mario 64
Super Mario 3 – I have beaten this game annually for the past 10 years with my twin brother. We do it the old fashion way; no skipping levels and when you beat a level or die, you pass the controller. The amazing thing about this game is I never get board. It’s just so… Read More NES/GBA Review – Super Mario Bros 3
When I first played Mario Land 2, I thought it was the Game Boy version of Super Mario World for the SNES. There was a similar overworld map, mario was big and easy to see, and you could do the downward spiral jump to crush bricks! Having recently completed this game, it most certainly is not a Game Boy version of… Read More GAMEBOY Review – Super Mario Land 2
I really missed the boat when it came to Gameboy Advanced growing up. When it was released, Super Mario Advanced was a launch title, but it appeared to just be a re-release of Super Mario 2 from Super Mario All-Stars…snore!!! Glad I finally decided to give this game another go. This is a traditional – if… Read More GBA Review – Super Mario Advanced
