I just saw an old box for Super Mario Bros. 2's initial release in the US, and a little banner on the bottom asserting the game was "Mario Madness" caught my eye.

Now, putting aside for a moment that this game wasn't a Mario game at all in Japan and that "Doki Doki Madness" could be considered more appropriate, this is awesome. More things should declare their madness upon their packaging.

This standard will now determine whether I deem a product worthy of purchase. If there is no declaration of madness, such as "soda madness", "cereal madness", "ambulance madness", etc, I shall say "no! No, thank you!"

It's entirely possible I'll starve as a result, but it's important to have standards.

The candidates need to adopt this strategy. How many people would hit the voting booths if they were drawn in by "Obama Madness" and "McCain Madness"?

Nice! Luckily, I think Brawl has a 'madness' somewhere on the back cover.

"This contains SURGICAL MADNESS." 8D

And here I was reading the title with Zim-emphasis.

DanShive's going to starve anyway, he's an artist. He may as well go down with some style.

Lol, I would definitely buy a game that advertises it's Mario Madness.
