Hello and welcome to episode 160 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast! Mario Day draws near and this year is Mario's 40th anniversary so we're going to talk about what we think Nintendo will do and how they will celebrate this milestone. This is a big year for Nintendo overall so we do think they'll do something to commemorate the occasion. Also in this episode, we rank the best Mario games by decade. We also talk about some games we are deep into right now and react to Nintendo removing a game on NSO in our news segment. We wrap it up with questions from our amazing Patreon community. All this and more is coming right up!
