Passing through the internet, looking for quotes in gaming, because I needed it somewhere else, I stumbled over one of Destructoid’s great posts. I laughed so hard, and only Mario players will laugh the same way.

I think of some of my first games from time time, especially the ones that made an impact on me in some way, or that I just utterly loved, and love.
