Sitting in the USA archives of online downloadable content for Mega Man: Powered Up is a level entitled SMB World 1-1. The title pretty much says it all. Someone created the first level of Super Mario Brothers with the Mega…

We all know there is a fighting game with Mario, Luigi and other characters from the Mushroom Kingdom, but the arcade cabinet in Animal Crossing: Wild World doesn’t show Super Smash Brothers. As seen in the photo above, the faux…

Besides branding I don’t see what is so special about the Baby Milo Nintendo DS Lite. Sure, it’s kind of cute. It might even be worth 16,800 yen ($168) since that’s close to the price of a plain Nintendo DS…

After a screw up from Toys ‘R Us, I don’t want to claim GameFly has the official box art for Mario Kart Wii, but this generic packaging might be the real deal. There isn’t anything to report other than showing the…

Without the Mario Kart cars, Firedog’s Mario Kart Go! would be an ordinary figure eight track with a vertical bank. But it does come with toy Mario Kart cars and they look awesome. Maybe not, $89.95 awesome though. I suppose this…
