    Oh, to be young again and be playing Super Mario Bros for the first time. Not possible, unfortunately, but at least I can play New Super Mario Bros for the first time — and I just did. The new side-scrolling Wii Mario game was playable here at E3 and we spent a good amount of time checking it out. Watch closely and you can see Peter twice die on the first two things in the game that can possibly kill you. Nice job, Ha.

    Of course, I fall down a couple holes, but that’s expected. Notice Peter gets ansy a little way into his camera time and starts meandering around looking at girls. I guess I did too later… I shall return, blond one with an accent.
