New Super Mario Bros. Board Game

You know, I’m starting to think that somebody should just take that Princess Peach and lock her up somewhere to suffer the same fate as Rapunzel. After all, she can’t seem to stay away from trouble – virtually all Mario games see Bowser kidnap the poorly guarded Princess, leaving Mario to take some time off his plumbing job to rescue a damsel in distress. For those of us who want to experience a different take of a Mario game, here’s the New Super Mario Bros. board game that features the majority of villans and worlds from the video game alongside some Japanese gadgetry that requires random chance to progress in the game. You can pick up this living room game for $45 a pop in Japan.
