Like the disjointed levels in a video game, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is more akin to a collection of scenes--each one fun, funny, and action-packed...but barely tethered to a greater whole. In other words, the story
The Grand Theft Auto franchise has always been controversial. Violence, misogyny, theft and bloodshed...it was the ultimate power trip for those feeling trapped by the mundanities of modern life. But now, GTA 6 is coming
The gaming industry loves reboots, remakes, redos—any so-called classic from the past that can generate some easy cash. But though these rereleases supposedly honor what came before, they often do the opposite, serving o
Nintendo can't seem to do wrong these days, and its press unveiling of the Switch 2 should have been another glorious moment for the golden company. But just when everything seemed perfect, the Big N got greedy: expensiv
The Sonic Trilogy--or, "Hollywood's Sonic" as coined by some--has always presented a rather, er, different spin on the classic character. More than cool and shrewd, this blue dude is young and playful and, really, just v
The Arduboy is famous for bringing back Nintendo's Game Boy 8-bit style of gaming, albeit in a credit card-size form factor. In 2016, the gadget was both cool and chic--unique and boutique. In 2025, however, can the tiny
Gaming has entered the doldrums--a downturn in the art form where companies struggle to produce anything of worth...or even new. Playing safe is now the strategy...but if remakes are our unfortunate future, why not at le
The brawler is certainly a genre of classics, from Final Fight to Castle Crashers. And recently, the category has enjoyed a certain return to glory with all sorts of new entries suddenly appearing on scene. And yet, is t
Princess Peach seems to be the maiden of a thousand faces. Who is she, really? The sweet, serene princess of classical, Marian sensibility? Or the hot-blooded battle maiden always happy for action? Is she gentle? An inno
Unlike film and book preservation, video games are always under attack; often, ironically, by their very makers. Once again, the ESA's cabal of Nintendo, Sega, Sony, and like-minded tyrants have united to strike down a R
Sega's Genesis (Mega Drive) and Nintendo's Super Nintendo - they were the topic of every school debate in the early '90s, but decades later, these rival machines STILL trigger passionate reactions in dedicated fans. Whic
Sonic the Hedgehog is still a gaming superstar, but his games appeal to different audiences. Some prefer his classic 2-D excursions; others like his more free-roaming adventures. And yet, the complaints are rife for eith
The "switcheroo" or "body swap" is an oft-repeated trope in cartoons, books, and film...but the premise stems from a singular source. After author Mary Rodgers imagined a daughter swapping bodies with her pretty mother,
One’s imagination is precious--it's the tool one uses to visualize the spoken, the inferred, the otherwise unseen. But do modern games, what with their HD photorealism...rob people of this fundamental, very human ability
Nintendo loves remaking and remastering its ancient games, including the 2024 rerelease of Mario vs. Donkey Kong. But with all the reboots and redos, why doesn't the Big N bring back the ape's best--the Game Boy's phenom
For nearly 29 years, Charles Martinet had provided Nintendo's Super Mario with his iconic voice. All the "wahoos" and "mama mias" came courtesy of the actor's style and invention. In a very real sense, Martinet was Mario
The Super Mario Bros. Movie is a huge hit, but the fans must decide--does it support, or subvert, the character's lore and legacy? Mr. Pacario compares the film with Mario's (once?) accepted origin, examining the complem
The illustrious Studio Ghibli is one of the industry's preeminent leaders in theatrical anime, and standing at its center is the legendary animator and director, Hayao Miyazaki. Indeed, his name is almost synonymous with
Not known for its shooters, the Super Nintendo still hosted one of the greatest shoot 'em ups of the 16-bit age--the inimitable Pocky and Rocky. The game's obscure status, however, meant that millions missed experiencing
Early anime lovers from decades ago know of Project A-KO--it was one of the 1980's great anime films, serving as both an introduction for new fans of the medium, and a brave, farcical sendup for those already well-acquai
