It’s-a Mario World: Classic Secrets
January 4th, 2009 by Kenneth CaldwellFiled under: It’s-a Mario World
This week we are highlighting some classic Mario game secrets which did not necessarily occur in 2008, but which should nevertheless be recalled during all possible occasions if only to reaffirm our steadfast allegiance. These recollections are like wormholes to our early platforming pasts, histories in which the surprising discovery of a well-hidden 1-up or warp zone could redefine the realm of the possible in the Land of the Mushrooms. Yeah, and they are also reminders of what we were doing earlier today. Now, we are no soothsayers, but it’s a good bet that 2009 will be full of more coin-hoarding, cape-rippling good times. For now, though, let’s look back at some of the top secret areas of early Mario games. Warp to the gallery!
