Game Player’s Gametape – Super Mario Bros. 2
Ah, Super Mario Bros. 2. A classic game, beloved by many. Not so much me – while I don’t hate the game, it honestly isn’t one I’m super fond of, or enjoy playing much. Still, it’s one hell of a game, with one hell of a story behind it. I’m not here to talk about […]
