Mario might be looking a little violent, but you immediately get the sense of what the game is, and perhaps it may even trigger childhood memories of playing the original Mario Bros. Mario Clash is a strong boxart for a console that definitely wasn't strong. the boxart takes place in the sewers, potentially around the Mushroom Kingdom given what's coming out of those pipes, and that aesthetic is certainly seen, with the location reminding me of the sewers featured in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. And as aforementioned, the Para-Goomba is looking pretty shocked. And Mario isn't the only angry one there, as the Sidestepper does not look thrilled at what's occurring, looking like it's shouting out in anger at what's about to happen to it. Mario looks seething as he chucks the visibly scared Koopa Troopa. What I find interesting about this boxart is all the expressions on display for the characters. And the boxart highlights these main similarities with a Sidestepper and Koopa Troopa on display, and much like in the original game, Mario is using the enemies to defeat each other – much to the shock of the nearby Para-Goomba. In this section, we will be looking at Mario Clash, a game very similar to the original Mario Bros. It's Halloween and we have run into the issue that we have covered all of the Luigi's Mansion games, so I really had to dig deep into finding something spooky, and what could be more spooky than the Virtual Boy, a console that gave people headaches and only shipped 80,000 units? Okay, perhaps a lot of things but let's roll with it. Hello readers, and welcome back to What's on the Box. Thank you to everyone who voted, and please keep it up for this month as well! Following that, we have yet another tie: Booguette's Koopamon chapter, featuring a Koopamon battle between Mario and Luigi the debut of Shy Guy's Cool and Hot Jams from Shy Guy on Wheels ( talk) discussing SEGA composers and winstein ( talk)'s Drawn and Pressed section featuring a collection of side projects by the legendary Jim Davis.

Lots of news for this month in Palette Swap! We have two writers leaving us, sadly: Chester Alan Arthur ( talk) has decided to end the run of The Devious Workings of Phineas J. It's going to be a busy end of the year, that's for sure. Things are looking good! This time next month, I'll be writing about Shin Megami Tensei V while I'm waiting for my copy of Pokemon Shining Pearl to ship from Pokemon Center. Welcome to the October issue of The 'Shroom!ĭid everybody see that new direct? We've been spoiled rotten for content- as I'm writing this, Metroid Dread is a week old, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is set to receive a massive DLC update, and Platinum has finally confirmed that Bayonetta 3 is in fact, not dead.
