I've been a card-carrying member of the 'Mario Fan Boy' club for over 30 years now, and I know most of his games like the back of my hand. But Super Mario 3D Land is one that slips through my memory cracks a lot, and dare I say, for a Mario game I think it's actually a little underrated...

It doesn't really do anything new or special, but it's a rock-solid 3D platformer, it brings back classic tunes and power-ups from previous Mario games, and while I think it's a little bit of a tech demo for the 3DS's 3D features, the fact remains that it's got that same level of polish most of my favourite plumber's games have.

Pending RTG Hall of Famer Mark McCue is my guest this week, and while he has a stronger attachment to 3D Land than I do, I think I actually like it a little more than he does. At the end of the day it's me and Mark talking about a Mario game and sprinkling in some comedy stories. After 340 episodes of this show, you know what you're getting.

And before we save the Princess, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!

This week, someone asks if Xbox is the new Sega?? Where do I stand on Undertale?? And what SNES games would I recommend for a 7 year old?

Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 handheld Mario platformers: Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, Mario 64 DS, and New Super Mario Bros. 2.
