It’s-a him, Dempsey from the Overthinking Games podcast! In this colorful episode he links up with Mike and Jaymo to play Super Mario World (SNES, 1991) and its 2001 Game Boy Advance port, Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2, as part of The Old SwitchAroo’s epic quest to research and review every retro game in Nintendo Switch Online’s Nintendo Classics catalog!

Just don’t lose your cool when Jaymo recounts the near-death experience that threatened his love life and possibly influenced Super Mario World game design…
