    I think I'm one of the few people who keep Super Mario 2 (aka Super Mario USA) in a special place in my heart. I love the game. I've always wanted to see a direct sequel to the game. #kotakutalktadio

    @Archaotic: Yoshi's Island does a wonderful job of feeling totally different from any other Mario game, and yet still feeling like a Mario game. And that's something in a series with as much gameplay variety as this one.

    I can't pick it as my favorite, though, as it's a bit too short and linear. That honor goes to Super Mario World, with Galaxy very slightly behind. #kotakutalktadio

    @billysan: I tend to extract quite a bit of enjoyment at riling up a friend of mine who insists that SMW is better than Yoshi's Island. :)

    Sidenote: What about Yoshi's Island DS? While I have not played much of it, many of the late-game stages are fiendishly difficult -- and not necessarily in a good way.

    Oh, and the music is terrrrrrible

    @jaronimo: A shame that Nintendo farmed out one of their best properties to such a mediocre developer (Artoon).

    A similar thing happened to the Good Feel-developed Wario Land: Shake It, though I liked that game moreso than YI DS.

    It had manageable difficulty and an interesting replay mechanic for a Wii game -- achievements. And while the platforming was decent and inspired at times, the levels are nowhere near as interestingly designed as past Wario Land titles.

    I sure hope Nintendo starts developing these types of games in-house once more.

    @GohanGVO: I know what you mean. These two games have been kind of a lackluster experience. Especially YI DS was a huge disappointment since the original is my favorite Mario platformer. Let's hope NSMB.Wii will bring back that heart warming old school feeling ;)

    I may purchase a Wii in the next week for the "New Super Mario Bros. Wii" and "Super Mario Galaxy 2".

    So far, I still haven't played a better Mario game in recent years than Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World.

    [EDIT: I thought Mario 64 great but it was lacking many cool things like multiple suits and vast level designs]

    True there are many who likes that, but girl on girl is more...calm, gentle and capricious.

    While guy on guy action it's romantic at best, but it fail at the gentleness.

    Girl on girl bonding is more appealing to both guys and girls, than guy on guy bonding.

I've had several opportunities to speak with you guys on the podcast and its even helped me get into PAX 2009!

    Should have talked about the bugs in NFS Shift that as of even now have no time-line for when they will be fixed. EA hasn't even so much has said the word patch on their forums.

    Add to that patch 1.01 adds on the PC, mouse and LAN, oh and D-Box support. Talk about heads in the sand or just don't care. #gta
