I am rubbish at swimming. If you ask me to go for a run, I can happily keep going for a solid 30 minutes at a reasonable pace. My swimming however sucks. After one length I am exhausted and I stretch in desperation when I get towards the end of the pool. Pretty embarrassing all round.
But anyhow on the odd occasion that I do go to the pool, I console myself knowing that the reception area has a decent selection of free magazines to read.
One of the free magazines that caught my eye is called Shortlist and one particular issue had a photo of a Mario fire flower in a plant pot!

☆ Review: Super Mario Odyssey "You Can Almost Go Home Again" ☆ #MarioOdyssey

Share This Post On Share to Facebook Share to Twitter Share This Post On

Much like the great traveller Odysseus, who spent so many years from home, I have also been on a long journey back to that place. No, not Ithaca—for me, the Mushroom Kingdom, and my passion for exploration. I just finished my first of what will be many playthroughs, and I did not want it to end.
Nintendo wanted to send their hero on a far-reaching adventure as he sought to reclaim his bride—again, like in Homer’s Odyssey—and some will boil it down to an attractive looking collect-a-thon—attempting to separate pieces of a wholly blended experience—but for me it was a joyous epic that came close to recapturing more than just what I could throw my hat on.
Mario’s next great video game experience is here, and it is time to dive into the craziness, moustache first.

I am a big fan of gaming collectibles so anything gaming related will appeal instantly grab my attention. A few weeks ago I was driving to pick up some Vietnamese takeaway when I spotted a big billboard with Yoshi on it.
A closer look revealed that the 2017 range of Super Mario toys were now available at McDonald's.

☆ My Top 5 Super Nintendo Mode 7 Moments ☆ #Retrogaming #GamersUnite

Mode 7 is a legendary graphics mode that was present in a certain number of Super Nintendo Video Games during the 1990's. 

It made everyone's jaw drop with its 3D looking effects that were unheard of in the console world at the time. 


I was a sucker for these games and I'm going to revisit some of my favourite Mode 7 Moments with you all now.


Watch Out Because Mode 7 Is ABOUT!!

☆ Why I Love Super Mario Bros ☆ #Retrogaming #Gamersunite

It’s maybe seen as a bit of a video gaming cliché to declare your admiration and love for the Super Mario Bros series and maybe yes it is?

But I have been with the Bros from the start and have seen them evolve over the years with the video games industry and have earned the right to declare my Mario Love.

My good friend Mario turned 30 this year.

He's been one of my best mates since I was around 6 years old so we go back a long way, in fact we go back to when he was born.

This guy has been there for many ups and downs in my life and we've shared so many fun moments together.

Who could forget the time we went to the wrong castle?!

A few weeks back I noticed a press release detailing that Mario and the crew would soon be back in the Happy Meals boxes.........I never eat McDonalds BUT when it comes to Mario figures then I had to take one for the team!

I've been excited to see what was on offer for the last few weeks and over the weekend I got the chance to sample some of the Happy Meal delights and this is the Mario loot I uncovered.....
