The History Of Mario Power-Ups
One of the Gaming Steve readers just sent me this picture which I file under my "this is just freaking cool" category. As you can see it depicts the history of Mario power-ups throughout the years. The picture isn't perfect in that it's missing some of the newer ones, it does have the extremely rare 3-up moon found in Super Mario World. Awesome.
I have no idea who made this picture, where it came from and where I can purchase this, but I want this picture for my office. Now.
After the jump is the video evolution of Mario from Donkey Kong to Super Mario Galaxy set to the Zelda theme. Thanks for tip Doug!
Everyone loves the moon... never understood that.
