Mario Vs Donkey Kong: Demo Review

Mario Vs Donkey Kong was originally a puzzle-platformer for the GameBoy Advance that was remade for the Nintendo Switch.  Donkey Kong wanted to buy one of the new Mini-Mario toys, but after he discovers that they’re all sold out, he decides instead to just rob the toy factory where they’re made!  The demo contains four…

Princess Peach: Showtime! – Demo Review

Princess Peach: Showtime! Is Peach’s very own spin-off game, where she is tasked with taking on the leading role in a variety of plays and defeating the Sour Bunch!  From what I’ve seen, this game features a variety of gameplay, as Peach changes outfits and, therefore, abilities throughout the game.  The demo contains two stages,…

Listmas 2024: Favorite Games for the Christmas Season

Well, Christmas has come and gone again, and all that’s left is to enjoy the last little bit of quiet before the new year arrives. Between the parties, gatherings and get-togethers, what games do you like to play as you sit back and enjoy the quiet moments here at the end of the year? Do…

Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope: Demo Review

Several years ago, a bizarre crossover was released, which combined the popular Super Mario Bros franchise with Ubisoft’s Rabbids.  As much as Wikipedia wants to insist that the Rabbids are popular and well-loved, I’ve always heard a different story, and I myself have always found the crazy bunnies to be similar to those yellow Minions…

Mamma Mia!  The Super Mario Bros Movie Was Amazing!

Although I didn’t see it in theaters, the Duck recently got to see The Super Mario Bros Movie on Amazon!  Buying recent releases without having seen them prior has, admittedly, backfired more times than not (I’m looking at you, Wreck-It-Ralph 2), but I had been hearing great things about Mario’s first animated movie (I’m aware…

Spooptober – Count Bleck

Most of Mario’s foes are comically evil; they’re doing the whole “take over the world” or “kidnap the princess” thing, but they’re so goofy that you really never take them seriously. Super Paper Mario’s Count Bleck isn’t like that though. He’s got a funny name and odd manner of speaking, but he poses a real…

Spooptober: Unagi the Eel is Just Chillin’

I’m Still Not a Big Fan of Super Mario 64

I don’t really like Super Mario 64.  There, I said it.  I understand that the game was a big deal for its time, considering it was one of the first 3D platformers ever made.  While that is certainly something to be admired, I never really had the best opinion of this game.  In fact, I…

Top 6 Worst Stars in Super Mario 64

Super Mario 64 may have been a classic of its time, but that didn’t prevent it from being a major pain as far as certain stars were concerned.  I was able to complete the game 100% years ago, and I attempted the feat once more during my recent recording of the game for YouTube.  As…

Top 10 Worst Shine Sprites in Super Mario Sunshine

Having recently replayed Super Mario Sunshine on the Switch, my newest attempts at 100% were filled with plenty of fun…and plenty of utter aggravation.  I had nearly forgotten how truly terrible some of these Shines are to collect, and I wanted to list my top ten worst Shines in the game, complete with a few…
