Super Mario Bros. 3 speedrun @ The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
Here’s a recording of the Super Mario Bros. 3 speedrun @ The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, which aired last Friday:
Shigeru Miyamoto interview
Yesterday, Game Informer published part of an interview with Shigeru Miyamoto. The famous creator was asked which Wii U game he thought was overlooked, and his answer is… Star Fox Zero!
Here’s what he had to say about that:
I think personally Star Fox is a really fun game if you sit down and play it. I think, for example, an elementary school kid who plays it without any preconceived notions, I think it would be really fun for them. I think it’s also really, really fun for siblings to play it together.
