If a water gun ever started talking to me, I'd probably lay off the smack

true, who knows what they could do if they just put their minds to it!  Bring back some old characters in 3D, have some new objectives besides just collecting 120 of something, make us work for the challenge...bazing!  I can dream can't I.

well back in the 80s there were three platformers that totally refined the mario industry and were regarded as some of the best games ever...in a 5 year span.  these days it takes 12 years for 3...and one crappy one.

I also hate how the characters have become living stereotypes.  I miss when the Princess was regarded as an intelligent character, but now it's "Tee hee, did I win?"

They had a few good ones, but it really wasn't necessary to make THAT many

I grew up in a house with smoking, so naturally I picked it up.  I am aware of all the bad things it does for you, but I find it to be a great stress reliever.  I find it helps pass the time while waiting for stuff like loading pages or slow games or commercials.  It used to give me a headbuzz, but not so much anymore.  I find it's a good way to start my day.  I am aware that people look down on me for doing it, and I don't care...in fact I hate people who try to yell at me for it, as if I'm oblivious to the world.  That makes me want to smoke even more.  I will quit when I'm good and ready.

This is an interesting topic.  Drugs should be legalized because they are similar in smoking and alcohol, that is they are harmful, but some of them do serve medicinal properties.  For example, the painkillers I take are also a common street drug.  Legalization would be excellent for money, although it would be hard to get people to go along with it, but seeing smoking and drinking can encourage it I guess.  A majority of people do them anyway, so why not.  Having the same laws like drinking would be good too.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need a cigarette.

As was Wario Land 4, but at least in that game you could die.  Risk factor, in my opinion, is neccessary

In 13 years we have only seen 3 new Mario platformers on 3D consoles, and Super Mario Sunshine is not my forte.  But in the meantime we are given countless Mario Party and other spinoff games.

When I first started playing the old Super Mario Bros. series, it was a challenge and a half, and it took years of practice to be able to finish the game with those tons of lives, but my first time playing through New Super Mario Bros. it was eays as pie to get tons of lives.
