If you were a kid between 1981 and today, or if you have had kids between those same dates then I am pretty sure you will know who I am talking about when I mention Super Mario Brothers. Mario is probably one of the most famous, iconic, and recognisable computer game characters the world has ever known and his popularity has spawned franchises including everything from clothes, music, and television shows.
The latest addition to the Mario Kart series and indeed the Nintendo Switch lineup will be screeching out of the starting grid worldwide this Friday.
My initial reaction when I saw what first glance appeared to be a repackaged version of the MK8 we already had was that it was a bit lazy and was just there to help fill up the Switch game roster.

We've finally got a release date for Super Mario Run, the first Mario game

Toad and his Pigtailed counterpart their share of the limelight following the
long awaited arrival of Super Smash Bros.
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is now
upon us as the Wii U
continues in its stride releasing more and more popular first party titles; it’s
game library now considerably better than it was a year or two ago.
“Captain Toad embarks on his first solo adventure” they said. It seems the good Captain wasn’t strong enough to go it alone and it has since been announced that his female Mushroom-comrade, Toadette will be coming to back him up; in the form of a second playable character. I’m pretty sure this is Toadettes first adventure game playable character appearance? Anyway, heres the official release from Nintendo.
