Did you like the third and fourth games? Let your fellow listeners know in TalkBack! Think you've got a better choice? Then send it my way and your request might be on the next episode of Radio Trivia: Podcast Edition! Heck, throw in a question and specific songs if you want. Just remember, it has to be a game found on a Nintendo system in North America (unless we say otherwise)!
I was a huge fan of the show you discussed at the end and never realized who the two characters were based on until I heard it on here. I always assumed they were original creations. Wow. Do not feel bad about how long it took you to figure it out.
