Super Mario Bros.

Good ol' Black Thought. Not only is he an amazingly talented member of The Roots and Jimmy Fallon's house band, but he's also willing to admit on national television that he's a "game freak." And then willing to do rap to the theme from Super Mario Brothers.

This Valentine’s Day, millions will cuddle up with their cats and a box of Dove bars and sink into a juicy romance novel. Wouldn’t it be far more interesting if romance novels contained the complexity, suspense and intrigue of our favorite TV shows and movies? Below, our noblest attempts at visual fan fiction. If these pop culture novels were real, they'd go straight to our Kindles so no one could

Well, color us impressed. Usually when we want to play Mario Kart, we spend thirty minutes looking for the Wii steering wheel, then just give up and re-watch the second season of 'Game of Thrones.' So, good for these guys! They've got enough initiative to make up for the rest of us...

Because it's fun to help adorable talking bees and rabbits only some of the time, here is a video of the 'Super Mario Zombie Bros.'

Anybody who was in high school marching band can go ahead and hang their head in shame now. The Ohio State University marching band just made all those mornings you woke up early to practice 'Taking It to the Streets' totally obsolete.

Anyone nostalgic for the glory days of gaming will be sad to hear that 'Nintendo Power' will be magazine-shuttering its magazine-windows soon, with a senior editor promising on Twitter to try to "make the last issues memorable." We'll miss this magazine, which sadly cannot compete with some random dude showing you exactly how to get through a level on YouTube. We've found some old (and s

Juggling is a difficult thing to do well, especially in groups. Working out a Mario themed juggling routine is that much harder. That's never stopped the Boston juggling troupe A Different Spin, though.

Considering that video games have only been around for the past forty years, their progress since then has been pretty remarkable. This awesome three-minute video, which is entitled "A Brief History of Video Games," shows us just how far they've come.

If you grew up in the 1980s, chances are you know how the first level of Super Mario Bros. is played. That first level is etched into the heads of every video gamer, whether you played it on the original NES or not. Now imagine how that first level would have played out had it been martial arts legend Chuck Norris in the game, instead of the Italian plumber we all know and love.

While the 'Super Mario Bros.' theme as performed by Bulgarian accordionists blew us away, this rendition by a talented cockatiel named Togepi may be the best yet.

At first, the idea of Bulgarian accordionists playing the 'Super Mario Bros.' theme might seem a little nutty. But, darn it, something about this just sounds so right.

If you've ever wanted to own one of the cars in the video game Mario Kart, now's your chance. Nintendo and auto body shop West Coast Customs, known for its work in the MTV series 'Pimp My Ride,' collaborated to build two of the vehicles in Mario Kart 7, which launches on December 4 for the Nintendo 3DS game system.

Animals rights advocacy group PETA has issued a scathing criticism of beloved video game character Mario in the wake of the new Nintendo 3DS game 'Super Mario Land 3D' for powering-up by wearing a "Tanooki suit." Named for Tanukis, the raccoon dogs that have long held an important place in Japanese culture, Mario's "Tanooki suit" has drawn the ire of PETA for promoting the wear

In a 'Napoleon Dynamite'-approved performance, two guys dressed as the dynamic duo of the Mario world demonstrated that karate and nunchucks might be better than mushrooms.

The Super Mario Bros. have made hundreds of appearances in different video games since the characters were introduced in 1985, but this one is probably the most unique. It's an electronic board game version of the Nintendo classic, the player maneuvers Mario analog-style, using a conveyor belt device built inside of a cardboard box.
