Super Mario Bros. Super Show DVDs

Press the Buttons has word that, finally, a DVD Edition of the Super Mario Bros. Super Show will be available in March. From the article: "While the show-within-a-show The Legend of Zelda saw release at the end of 2005, now the company has announced definitive details regarding the animated Mushroom Kingdom adventures. Twenty-four episodes of the show will be released in a four-disc set on March 28, 2006 and will include the bizarre live action segments featuring Captain Lou Albano as Mario and Danny Wells as Luigi."

    Captain N was the greatest advertisement ever. It made even the crappy games look cool, fun and life fulfilling. Plus, who wouldn't want a controller for a belt buckle and a zapper as a sidearm? And yes, I do know I can get the buckle, but my classical shape (i.e. round) limits the comfort such buckles would impart.

    I recommend you don't get it then. This is only going to be good for nostalgic reasons. The show itself was a typical crappy 80's cartoon with pathetic live-action segments.

    Now please excuse me while I head over to Amazon to pre-order it.

    Do the Mario!

    Swing your arms from side to side.
    Come on, it's time to go.
    Do the Mario!

    Take one step, and then again.
    Let's do the Mario, all together now!
    You got it! It's the Mario! Do the Mario!

    Swing your arms from side to side.
    Come on, it's time to go.
    Do the Mario!

    Take one step, and then again.
    Let's do the Mario, all together now!
    Come on now. Just like that!

    I was in college at the time, and I still thought Captain Lou Albano was great as Mario.

  4. Why pay money for free content? by Guspaz · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Seriously, Yahoo has made the shows available legally for free. Why would you pay money for free content?

    I mean, this isn't like P2P vs CDs here. They made the content available for free LEGALLY.
