HEY ASSHOLE STOP TYPING IN DAMN ALL CAPS FOR ONCE OK???? but anywayyyy i give them super mario brothers because i want to see you stop leaving poorly written comments :) de nadaaaaaa ?

Leave your suggestion for next week's Fan Favorite video in the comments!

It's a guy beating the first four Super Mario games all as quickly as possible all at once using only one controller.

Now before you freak out and say, "This is totally impossible!" keep in mind that it's labeled "TAS" which in the video game world means it's "Tool Assisted."

The guy who made the video is the tool.

But this is nothing.  I once beat the first six Mega Man games all at the same time using only one controller.  They key was to lie about it.

Why is it that in the game you always want to be Mario but in real life you never do?

A vote for Bowser is a vote against the prosperity of the whole Mushroom Kingdom.

Somebody get Sandy Piderit some fire flowers!

The game Super Mario Bros. was first released in Japan on this day in 1985.

To commemorate, check out the above video providing a visual tour of the much of the Super Mario catalog.

I can't believe I've spent 25 years of my life hanging out with an Italian plumber with a severe mushroom addiction who loves stomping on the head of every creature he sees.

I could have been playing Super Mario Bros. games that entire time instead.

Alright, I gotta run and get this bag of mushrooms to my Italian plumber friend, Gino, otherwise he will stomp me on my head.  What an asshole.

I can't believe I've never seen this before.  Remember when Daniel recreated Level 1-1 of Super Mario Bros.?

Well, someone took the original video of the guy who broke his arm trying to climb some homemade crate-stairs Mario-style and animated Mario in there.  Genius.

It's kind of like Mario doing his take on our "I'm better than you, na-na na-na boo-boo, stick your head in doo-doo."  You show that broken-boned loser, Mario.

Do you love this stop motion Super Mario Bros. video?

Of course you don't!  I am so over Super Mario.  When are they going to release a sequel to that game!?

And what's up with sticky note art?  Go buy yourself some paint, hippie, and stop wasting all the school supplies.  Do you know how many notes I could have written on those?!  At least a handful!

Oh, but good news: I heard Avatar 2 is going to be shot entirely with Post-its, so at least you have a future in the film industry, idiot!

Most retro crap on the Internet is garbage: It's like, here's a T shirt with some character from Mr. Belvedere on it that you don't even remember LOL!

Retro for the sake of retro is lame.  If you're gonna talk retro, bring something new into the mix …which is why Super Mario Crossover is so sweet.

The idea is simple: Play the original Super Mario Bros. with a selection of other NES classic characters.  There's Samus from Metroid, Link, Mario himself, Mega Man, Simon from Castlevania, and the dude from Contra who's name no one knows or cares about.

What makes it interesting is that each character retains their signature moves from their own games.  For some characters it's a bitch: Like Samus is too tall to squat down and shoot at Goombas.  I've gained a lot of respect for all the hard work Mario and Luigi have done over the years.

It might not be the most fun you've ever had, but it is interesting, and will remind you why Link is such a pussy.  Give the game a try here before any of the multiple copyright holders who's rights are being infringed upon file a complaint.
