    I understand Koopa shells being pawns, but coins? What are they going to do, shine you to death?

    Oh well, still an awesome chess set that I wish I had! #newsupermariobroswii

    Looks like they fixed the problems I had with the last version, namely Luigi being Mario's "queen". #newsupermariobroswii

    @DukeOfPwn: Uh, no. Luigi is still Mario's Queen.

    Red side: Mario's the King, Luigi's Queen, Daisy and Peach are bishops, Yoshi are knights, Toads are Rooks, Coins are pawns.

    And on the Green side, Bowser's King, Bowser Jr.'s Queen, Kamek/Magikoopa are Bishops, Birdo are knights, Goomba are Rooks, Shells are pawns.

    I have to say, I absolutely love this.

    I would buy it in a heartbeat if a) it was for sale, and b) I wasn't broke. I don't even know why I want it. I suck at chess and don't even like it all that much.

    If you lose eight times in a row, do you get to turn over control to Deep Blue who shows you how it's done? #newsupermariobroswii
