HEY PISANOS! SUPER MARIO MOMENT is back! And joining Hamish on every episode of Season 3 is David from Gimmicks and Fear Coded!

And this season we are tackling every Super Mario tv and film adaptation in anticipation of the upcoming release of the Super Mario Galaxy Movie!

Today we are starting at the very beginning with one of the first tv shows based on a video game and Mario's first cartoon. Saturday Supercade is an anthology series based on various popular arcade games of the time including Q*Bert, Frogger and of course Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr. But how do the first people to do it tackle adapting jump man for television? We discuss!
