I remember it all so well

Ironic that Universal wanted to sue Nintendo and now Universal is playing host to their theme parks and releasing their movies.

[@GamingDelight]

Speaking of movies, remember The Wizard (another Universal film), a movie that featured a slew of Nintendo merchandising, as well as a preview of Super Mario Bros. 3?

[@CarletonTorpin]

35:10 Duffman is doing side-work narrating ads for the Super Game Boy.

[@GamingDelight]

Actually, 35:10-35:26, but good point, nonetheless.

I've been looking forward to this, and it did not disappoint! There were a lot of things I didn't know about the history of this franchise. I really like the way you present all of the research you do. Excellent storytelling!

[@GamingDelight]

Happy to do it. Mario Bros. is going to be the next big game for me to tackle.
