If you want to hear the entire Mario theme song, you’ll have to head over to the Super Mario Brothers’ website. They have pretty much anything and everything related to Super Mario!! So, if you’re an addict – you know where to go!

I’ve loved the song – and the games – since way back in junior high school when the NES first was released. Yes, I’m dating myself there. Heck, my age is no secret. But I can’t help it – I LOVE THE MARIO SONG!!!

On Super Mario Brothers, you’ll find a website dedicated to Mario and Luigi. Here you will find Mario games, Mario music, Mario themes, Mario downloads, and more! Stay as long as you want, and enjoy everything the Mushroom Kingdom has to offer.

There are several awesome games (Mario ripoff types) that you can play on the site. They’re pretty good, and they’re fun. You can grab MP3s of pretty much every song that you’ll find on any of the Mario World games, too! Now you can bop along anytime you want – or even make yourself a ring tone if you have the right software!

Go on, you know you want to. Spend a few hours on Super Mario Brothers today!

I’ve been having a Wii bit of fun lately, playing Mario Kart on my Wii. It’s addictive. I picked it up after seeing a commercial where the player is using the little steering wheel. Even though it’s wireless, I’m using my strap. I don’t want it to go flying across the room! I totally don’t want it hitting my dog and giving him brain damage.

If you’ve ever played a racing game on a hand-held device or even a controller, you know that you tilt it whichever way you need your car to go. If the controller isn’t built like the Wiimote, it won’t do you any good. Finally, the hardware has caught up with our own deficiencies as humans!

Anyway… I decided to give this a shot to see if it was going to be as fun as I’ve been hearing. Indeed… it is a ton of fun, if you’re not losing. Normally I wouldn’t hold the controller as high as I am now, but I wanted you all to be able to see that my actions have equal reactions in the game. Interesting to note is that even though I lost the game, Nintendo has thought of pretty much everything. Not only can I move up and down the way you’d think I could… I can also press the right and left buttons to go up and down.

You don’t really have to move the Steering Wheel that far. You basically just tilt to maneuver. Of course, visually and audibly, it’s an amazing game. You do almost have a tendency to over-steer with this game. It’s interesting, too, that the character leans when you do. I’m a casual gamer, and I enjoy gaming occasionally. I’m having fun with this wireless Steering Wheel. The game and the controller get a huge “thumbs around” from me… which is far better than a thumbs up.
