I'm powering through this series in a hurry—but can you blame me? Mario Clash is pretty cool and I wanted to talk about it! It's also one of the least-played games to ever to include "Mario" in the title. Man, Nintendo needs to rework these games for some other platform already, geez.

Mario Clash retrospective: Dream of the red turtles | Virtual Boy Works #06

Mario's second (and final) outing on Virtual Boy is a more traditional adventure for him. Exceptionally traditional, in fact, as it reaches back into the early roots of the series, well before the days of Mushroom Kingdoms and Koopa Kings, to present fans with a single-player update to the original Mario Bros. It's a remarkably complex game with a high degree of difficulty, but one that deserves not to be forgotten.
