Let me know when Super Mario Land 2 turns 25. That's when the party really begins.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

???

I have never met anybody who held the view that Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. weren't platformers.

If they aren't platformers, then what are they?

This actually isn't Mario's Birthday...it's the "bros" series 25th.

Mario was "born" in 81.

Some nerds you all are. :?

No, it's the "Super Bros." series 25th.

The "Bros." series started in 1983. ;)
