NXpress Nintendo Podcast #22: ‘Runbow’ and a Look back at ‘Super Mario Galaxy’
This week, we continue our Super Mario marathon and finally get around to discussing the third 3D original platformer in the series after Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine. The iconic mascot’s long resume features some of the greatest platformers to ever grace any home console and on this episode, we are reviewing Super Mario Galaxy, created by Nintendo’s EAD Tokyo studio, whose first project was DK Jungle Beat, a disappointing flop for Nintendo. We also take some time to discuss the Mega Man movie as well as Runbow, the debut title from Toronto-based developer 13AM Games. And be sure to like our new Facebook page!
