Time For A History Lesson

November 9th, 2007 Posted in News, Wii

Have you ever wondered why Mario was before he was a plumber? What was Princess Peach known as before she was Princess Peach? Maybe you’d like to know the Mario Bros. last name (yes, they have one). Why did Mario throw vegetables at his foes in Mario Bros. 2? For the answer to all these questions and many more check out IGN’s feature on the history of this iconic Italian and his massively successful franchise. Whether you remember these early games or not it’s still a fabulously interesting read and I implore anyone born in the 90s to check it out, it’s the reason we have video games at home today.
