Did you know???
« on: January 28, 2005, 10:49:19 pm »
Just wondering how many people actually knew that the game we all know and love as Super Mario Brothers 2 in the US was first a game called Doki Doki Panic: Yume Kōjō in Japan and merely re-sprited for us westerners.

A bit of information on the subject.
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen
