Oh, the paint on them is made of lead?  For some reason I just imagined people accidentally pricking themselves with the pointy pin part while putting the buttons on, not knowing they had just been been injected with a deadly dose of lead from the pin's metallic coating...

I think the bigger drawback might be Chupperson Weird's point about the ability to replay such games on future systems.

Maybe they like to use time machines very irresponsibly.

Yes, and then we won't have to hear the name "Eggman" ever again!

Robotnik is Better, but the times have changed, and what are we going to do about it?

They should have dropped the word "tycoon" after Railroad Tycoon.

I don't think Mario originated the term "1Up", though.

Huh, you know, I don't think I'd mind seeing Realistic Yoshi pop up in a game someday.

Wow, and it was still "Bloober" as late as Super Mario Bros. Deluxe!  I'm on a roll with these images...


Say, do you think "Blooper" is supposed to be a reference to The Bloop?

He's been Bowser since the original Super Mario Bros. in America.  He was only "King Koopa" in the licensed shows because either that was the one name they never bothered to look up in the manual, or they just liked the alliteration too much.
