Mario’s Top 5 Jobs

Standard

There is no other character that signifies Nintendo than Mario. Mario has been the signature character (Hero) for the company from the early days. However, throughout that time, Mario has worn many hats, as one might say. He has carried many different jobs, and his success varies from job to job.

This week, in the 25th installment (hold your applause please) of 2 Dudes and a NES, the Dudes take a break from the game by game style to talk about the top five jobs held by the beloved Mario. The Dudes talk a little history of the creation of Mario as well as some of the roles (acting?) that Mario has taken over the years.

We can only imagine where the NES would be without the Italian plumber/doctor/demolition worker/too many other things to list. But we know Nintendo would certainly not be the same without him.

Happy Listening

Anticipation

Standard

 

Through the years many video games have been inspired by board games. However what about a board game solely created for a video game system? Leave it to the guys at Rare to be innovative and bring the board game to the NES, but they went a step further with the creation of Anticipation “Nintendo’s first video board game.”

The Dudes sit down to talk about Anticipation this week a little. We must say a little because there is plenty of tangent talking in this episode. But how can you blame the Dudes? I mean, talk for an hour about just anticipation? Impossible.

After starting off on a bad foot due to a lame joke made by Justin and Michael deservedly giving him the silent treatment for it, the Dudes get right to the heart of Anticipation, board games, ridiculous reviews and much more.

While this is a lesser known NES title that you may not have experience with, the Dudes put on a great show for the listeners.

Thanks for listening.
