World of Nintendo
Plenty of reasons to be cheerful and confused
1)Super duper Mario spaceman
So this is how Mario managed to look so at home during his astronautical adventure - intensive weightlessness training with none other than Buzz Aldrin, the first man to be beaten to the moon by Neil Armstrong. Seconds after these shots were taken, Mario freaked out and brought the aircraft down with a misplaced fireball, but the occupants landed safely thanks to the spring costume and Mario%26rsquo;s giant soft head. Buzz Aldrin said: %26ldquo;Mario did excellent, just outstanding. Yeah, we were holding hands all the way and upside down and sideways. Super! Super duper Mario.%26rdquo;
2)Nintendog
Aw, how sweet! We can%26rsquo;t wait to see the pics of this dog in the Elton John sunglasses, but maybe he just hasn%26rsquo;t found those in the bin during walkies yet. He does look worryingly capable of eating the throat out of a burglar, but surely no animal with such cute dress sense can be dangerous.
