An Homage to a Living Legend

Happy late morning from The Pasty Quail! It appears that we're a little slow on the uptake today, due to the fact that 3/4 of the pastiness attended a ridiculously awesome Of Montreal show at the 40 Watt in Athens last night, of which Greg will have many killer videos later today.

Anyhow, this post has no rhyme or reason with regards to that or to anything, but I just thought I'd give a little plug to ol' Mario and friends, who have 3 of the top 10 selling console video games of all time.

Even though many of these other games are much more new school, violent, and more akin to the style of video games true “gamers” really enjoy, I was happy to see the Mario games up there, culminating with one from the original Nintendo, to which I gave a nice little tribute recently.
