Thanks for listening!

We watched Super Mario Galaxy on release day, and we have a lot of thoughts. In this episode we walk you through the main story beats of the movie and share our commentary as long time Mario and Nintendo fans. What worked, what didn't, and what we want from Nintendo on the big screen moving forward.
Have critics been too harsh?? Listen to find out.
If the audio is a little crunchy - try re-downloading! Reuploaded 4/3 with updated audio
Let us know what you thought of the movie!

7s get a bad rap. So let's celebrate how GOOD a 7 can be by compiling a bunch of games with an average of 70-79 on sites like metacritic and opencritic?!
What would your team of 7s be?
