At Nintendo’s press conference about the 3DS a few weeks back, they revealed a Virtual Console for the new handheld not unlike the one on the Wii, but allowing for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games to be downloaded. My mind boggled at the possibilities. With only two games announced for the service so far (Super Mario Land and The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening DX) here are just a few of the other games that absolutely need to be made available on the 3DS. There are no Game Boy Advance games on this list – only Game Boy and Game Boy Color. I’m sure GBA games will be on the Virtual Console eventually, but I chose to keep them off the list because I could write thousand-word entries about how great Drill Dozer and Sonic Pinball Party are and no one wants to read that.

It’s the 25th anniversary of the release of the classic platformer, Super Mario Bros., and I figured I had to do something to celebrate – but what? Broadcast a 25-hour livestream of nothing but Mario games? Too bandwith-consuming. Write a list of the best Mario games? Too subjective. Finally review Super Mario Galaxy 2? Too logical. So instead here are a bunch of fun facts about our favourite pudgy plumber.

Remember how I said these were technically GamingEverything AND NintendoEverything podcasts? Well, they aren’t anymore! These are 100% NintendoEverything podcasts from now on. Though, I’ll admit, there’s not too much different if you listened to previous podcasts aside from what news we cover. Regardless:

Download/listen to the podcast here!

This show we just cover some general stuff about Nintendo. I don’t think I’ll be the first to say it’s not the best we can do, but hey, it’s Nintendo, and it’s a podcast. Have at it, and post any questions you may have for us here!

Let’s take a look, shall we?

There are a lot of really strange adaptations of videos games out there. We all know how weird the Super Mario Bros. movie is and how much the Zelda cartoon deviated from its source material, but I wanted to take a look at some of the more obscure adaptations of Nintendo games there are out there. I figured I should start by looking at what was probably the first example of a Nintendo title being turned into some other form of media, so let’s take a look back at the Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr. cartoons that aired as part of CBS’s Saturday Supercade block from 1983 to 1985.
