Who Exactly are the Clones Attacking?

joshishollywood:

There was only one kid in my entire neighbourhood when I was growing up who owned a Super Scope, so even though he was perpetually in serious need of the most intense nose-blowing of his life, we were all “friends” with him in hopes of getting invited over to play Yoshi’s Safari.

It was the first and only Mario first-person rail shooter, and my favourite part was that Nintendo didn’t really know how to explain what Mario, after well over a decade of fighting enemies by stepping on them, was doing with a gun.

So they didn’t.

Mario literally just shows up holding a rifle while nonchalantly chatting up Princess Peach before she asks him to go rescue a neighbouring kingdom, and then you’re off fucking shit up mere seconds later.

It was awesome.

I’ve never even heard of this.
