Super Mario Bros. 3 was the last game on the NES, and it pushed the system and the series to new heights with the new feature set, improved graphics, and new elements. The third game introduced some Mario series staples, like the overworld, power-ups you could use outside of gameplay, and bonus levels, and brought some new characters and enemies that are still around today.
Come play Super Mario Bros. 2 with us over the next couple weeks and share your thoughts about it, and we'll discuss your thoughts on air.

The Super Mario Bros. 2 we know in Western territories isn't the first game to go by that name. The first one (re-released later as The Lost Levels) was deemed too hard for us, so Nintendo reskinned Doki Doki Panic and released that as Super Mario Bros. 2 for us noobs in the west.
Come play Super Mario Bros. 2 with us this week and share your thoughts about it, including any thoughts you have about The Lost Levels release on SNES.
This is the second in a three-part series about the Super Mario Bros. games on the NES Classic, so watch this space! We’ll have an event for Super Mario Bros. 3 in March!
I use him only for the 1-2 stage. He picks up stuff so fast it's one of the best ways to get all the coins such that you can have a pretty nice amount of random slot pulls to get a few extra lives. That said, my chance with that game is terrible and I'm lucky if I get anything at all.

I use the princess almost exclusively. The glide is amazing.
Yep. There are only two times I use other characters and if you want to know what the other one is you will have to WAIT TO HEAR IT ON CHEERFUL GHOST RADIO! Unless you want to know earlier and just text me and i'll tell you.

Super Mario Bros. is a game that needs no introduction. The first game of the Super Mario series, it captured the hearts and minds of millions and spawned the multiple Mario series that are still going strong today.
This is the first in a three-part series about the Super Mario Bros. games on the NES Classic, so watch this space! We’ll have events for Super Mario Bros. 2 in February and Super Mario Bros. 3 in March!
The open ceremony at BlizzCon opens the event and usually drops all the big announcements for what we can expect to come in Blizzards immediate future. Diablo 4? An Overwatch expansion? Only Thrall knows for sure...

I just watched some IGN videos and found out about Warcraft III: Reforged, which I'm looking forward to, I've never played the original W3. There's also Diablo Immortal, which is a mobile game, but I doubt my phone will play it. There's also a WOW Classic edition coming out.

Cheerful Ghost Games Club is back with Metroid!
In season two of Cheerful Ghost Radio we are doing bite-sized NES Classic review episodes. We want to make you all part of these episodes, so join this event to get in on the discussion for our next NES Classic review, Kirby's Adventure!
We'll review Metroid in an episode following the event, and include opinions and commentary from people who joined and chatted with us about it.
Metroid is an action/adventure game developed by Nintendo in 1986, and along with Castlevania spawned the metroidvania genre of action/adventure games. Metroid follows our hero, Samus, as she navigates the alien world of Zebes. The combination of platforming, upgrades, and exploration made Metroid a major hit, spawning sequels on nearly every console and handheld since.
Friday is the keynote presentation for Quakecon. The keynote will cover Quake Champions, Rage 2, and The Elder Scrolls Online, and reveal the first gameplay footage of Doom Eternal.
Join the event and add it to your calendar!

Cheerful Ghost Games Club is back (after a long hiatus!) with Kirby's Adventure!
In season two of Cheerful Ghost Radio we are doing bite-sized NES Classic review episodes. We want to make you all part of these episodes, so join this event to get in on the discussion for our next NES Classic review, Kirby's Adventure!
We'll review Kirby's Adventure in an episode following the event, and include opinions and commentary from people who joined and chatted with us about it.
Kirby's Adventure was released somewhat late in the NES's life in 1993, a couple years after the SNES was released. It's a follow-up to Kirby's Dream Land on the original Gameboy and puts the player in control of Kirby, an adorable pink ball of... something. This was the first game to introduce Kirby's ability to copy his enemies' powers, which has been a staple of the series for decades.
