After the massive success of The Super Mario Brothers Movie from 2023 (because we do NOT talk about the live-action movie from 30 years prior), it was no surprise that they’re making another one. What is surprising, however, is that they’re skipping straight to Super Mario Galaxy, with some elements from other games thrown into…

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: The Duck’s Revised Christmas Guest List
Our last Listmas category before our wildcard week revolves around those characters we’d most want to spend the holidays with, whether it be due to our inkling that they’d be good gift-givers or just a lot of fun to be around. I actually wrote a similar post back in 2022 if you want to check…
The Duck’s Ten Best Games of the Last Ten Years
Ten years have gone by, and now it’s time to list the Duck’s ten very favorite games from the last decade, ranging from horror to Metroidvania to expansive adventure and platformer games.

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…
Yoshi’s Crafted World: Demo Review
Having never played Yoshi’s Wooly World, I was at least given a chance to play a small portion of the game’s successor, Yoshi’s Crafted World, thanks to a short demo available on the Switch. One of the biggest features that stand out with both games is the unique aesthetic. Where the former took place in…
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker – A Pleasant, But Padded, Puzzle Game
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is a slow-paced puzzle game starring Captain Toad (and Toadette) where you explore various stages that you can rotate in order to look for secrets. The game is extremely generous, with roughly 80 stages that will have you seeking out hidden passages, moving and rotating platforms, riding minecarts, avoiding a dragon’s…
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…
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…
