The Week in Review: Prices, Pirouettes and Plumbers

In this week's edition, Hideo Kojima professes his love for a certain Italian-American plumber, and we learn that the 3DS price is our fault.

Friends Don't Mute Friends.

To say that Hideo Kojima is quite fond of the original Super Mario Bros. [http://www.amazon.com/New-Super-Mario-Bros-Nintendo-Wii/dp/B002BRZ9G0/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1285971817&sr=1-1], is like say that Bowser is "quite fond" of kidnapping Princess Peach. Kojima called the game "one of mankind's greatest inventions," and said that it changed the world and him along with it. In his opinion, without Super Mario Bros, gaming as we know it wouldn't exist.

I think there's some shenanigans going on here.

And now it's saying 2am again. Oh well.
