After the first ‘Super Mario Bros.’ animated movie smashed box office records, Nintendo says another is coming.
What’s The Best Mario Game?
It’s time again for one of those made-up video game holidays in which we celebrate a long-running franchise. This time, it’s Mar10 Day, or Mario Day. On March 10, Nintendo celebrates the Super Mario franchise’s long history and even puts some games and merch on sale. But if we’re going to reflect on the plumber’s many…
All The Best Deals On Games And Accessories
This upcoming Saturday is March 10, which means Nintendo’s annual celebration of its iconic plumber is here. This year’s MAR10 Day might not herald any large announcements since we just got a handful of Mario games last year, and the influx of titles to the Switch seems to be winding down in anticipation of its…
40 Years Ago, Nintendo Introduced Its Most Underrated Series

Lost F-Zero Games Recreated By Fans Are Now Playable
It’s been too long since F-Zero fans got a full-fledged new entry in the series (sorry F-Zero 99, you don’t count). And while the latest F-Zero news isn’t of that long-awaited next game, it might be even more fascinating for fans of the franchise. Thanks to the work of the F-Zero community, two lost games in the…
Everything We Know About Princess Peach: Showtime!
In just a couple of months, Princess Peach: Showtime! will give us a standalone Peach game, rather than relegating the princess to the role of side character in yet another Super Mario Bros. title. We haven’t gotten a solo Peach game since 2005 (and that one was pretty shallow and insulting), so this is long overdue.…
30 Years Ago, A Gory Gaming Triumph Changed Pop Culture Forever
There’s a certain rarified echelon of video games that have birthed entire genres based on their innovation, and their fingerprints can still be spotted all over many games today.
