Robert - Seton Hall — Sat, 01 Oct 2011 18:30:31 +0000

Since the collective world's mind was blown with the release of the Atari 2600 in 1977, video game controllers have seen quite the evolution.

Back in December, the Brothers Mario took back the Mushroom Kingdom from the crime lord Bowser and his Koopa Troop. Now, the brothers have some monkeys on their backs - quite literally! The Kong crime family, led by Donkey Kong, are moving in on the koopas' turf, leaving a reluctant Bowser with only one option - getting help from the Brothers Mario. The monkey sh*t hits the fan after Mario kills Donkey's nephew Diddy, driving everyone bananas (I swear, I'll stop with the simian-related humor). Non-gaming folk might get a few laughs from this, but if you're a Nintendo geek like me, you're going to get giddy over the references to the game series and The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! This is a video you can't miss!

In case you don't know who Navi is, she was the nagging harpy - I mean - fairy sidekick of Link from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time that would get his attention with "Hey, listen," and provide him hints to solving a puzzle or defeating a boss.
