A feature on Mario's Super Inferno (Super Mario Galaxy 2) from Games Radar: Screw the haters! The Dante's Inferno Super Bowl ad was the greatest marketing move of all time. Of course, most of that had to do with the sweet serenade provided by Soul Deity, Bill Withers! So why the hell wouldn’t it work for Mario? ... Go to Source ...

A feature on Gaming's famous moustached men: shaved (Super Mario Galaxy) from Games Radar: What links all great men through history? The insatiable pursuit of power? An unwillingness to compromise? Snappy dress sense? Nah, it’s a good old tache, of course. Inspired by the recent clean shaven antics of Final Fantasy big cheese Hironobu Sakaguchi and Adolf Hitler, we’ve decided to shave the soup strainers off some of our favourite games characters.Warning: the following images may shock and appal ...

A feature on Zelda cosplay goes high fashion (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - Virtual Console) from Games Radar: Sometimes cosplay can be embarassing and degrading to the person involved. Thcostume is a pale imitation, their 'helmet' is made out of tinfoil and teaspoons, their make up drawn on by a blindfolded gibbon. But not always. Some cosplay is incredible. It's like a game character has crawled out of the TV screen and inhabited the REAL WORLD.  Like this downright classy, high-fashion Zelda cosplay... ... Go to Source ...

A feature on TV ads that steal from games (Super Mario Galaxy) from Games Radar: So there we are on a Tuesday evening, watching the TV, when the commercial break comes on. Advert for Insurance. Advert for baby milk. Advert for some shit movie we're never going to watch. Advert for cheaper gas. Advert for... hang on a sec. That advert for gas was a rip off of the Super Mario Galaxy planets! That's what started it off. And now we've spotted a bunch of other ads which robbed from games. ... Go to Source ...

Personally I am still perfectly happy with my Nintendo DS Lite, but I can see how the DSi would appeal to another customers because of the DSiWare service. However, some argue, like in the following Platform Nation article, that the removal of the Gameboy Advance slot puts the new design at at major disadvantage. There certainly are a lot of great titles on the GBA…what do you guys think?

GameStop had already promised a T-shirt and art booklet as a bonus for pre-ordering the Metroid Prime Trilogy, which releases at the end of August. Well now they’ve added a Metroid Prime poster (above) as an additional item to customers that order online. I’m not really a “pre-order person”, but I do love free stuff. And this is a lot of free stuff!

A portion of a Destructoid review:

You wouldn’t think that a golf video game would be a good platform to show off new gaming technology, but it turns out that Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 is a perfect showcase for Nintendo’s WiiMotion Plus, so much so that the device comes packed in the box.

Score: 9 – Superb

Silver Star Reversi:

It’s difficult to recommend Silver Star Reversi wholeheartedly, however its core gameplay and frugal price make it difficult to dismiss.

Full Review

Reel Fishing Challenge:

“Reel Fishing Challenge has some issues and feels a bit shallow even as a digital download. Considering the price however, it isn’t a bad place to start for those curious of the genre.

First up, a HUGE thank you to Bethany for switching her work night from Wednesday to Tuesday. I really appreciate it!

Second, the reason Bethany switched work days is because today is Mom Brain’s birthday!

n732176332 1761633 5940

Mom Brain turns 27 today, and the podcast crew is heading out to have some dinner and fun. No worries, I’ll be back around 11 PM EST tonight, just as I would on a normal Bethany Wednesday.

Feel free to leave some birthday wishes for Mom B. in the comments below. I’m sure she’d be happy to see!
