GameTech: Super Mario in a birthday battle royale,  and a new Minecraft update 

The classic character turns 35 this year, and Nintendo have released a new multi-player game to mark the occasion.  

Super Mario Bros 35 video game.

Mario has done everything over the years. He started life as a plumber. He became a kart driver, a golfer, an Olympian, a doctor, and even an astronaut. That’s a lot to achieve in 35 years. During all those escapades, Mario brought us all together in the spirit of fun and adventure. Until now.

As part of Mario’s 35th anniversary, Nintendo have put a twist on the classic Mario formula. Instead of saving the world, Mario is out for himself. Instead of having fun with other players, you are out to get them, until only one Mario is left standing.
