It is very weird to think that I first started playing this game about six-and-a-half years ago, but that's what RetroAchievements says. That's a very long time.

Look, I'm not going to wax poetic all over again about the magic of Super Mario Bros. Special, there's plenty of that in the Hall of Fame video. I'm sure I'll get another chance to talk about it down the line, anyway. I mean just because I finally got that stupid clock and finished up the RetroAchievements set for it doesn't mean I'm done done, right?

Right?

What a game.

That first Super Mario Special video came at a very dogshit time for me, and it was heaven sent for being able to make me just laugh and laugh at an absolutely inscrutable piece of gaming. Delighted to see the book finally close on it. What a terrible, marvelous miserable thing. The fucking warped version of the 1-1 song still gets stuck in my head and makes the real version sound incorrect.
