I’m not a big fan of board games. I’ll play a board game if its on a console or my phone, but somehow the fun of an analog version escapes me. But the fact that we live in a digital age did not stop Japanese game maker Epoch from unveiling a Super Mario Bros and a Super Mario Kart board game at the Tokyo Toy Show.
The Mario Bros version is a one player game that involves navigating a metal ball through a maze as quickly as possible. The Mario Kart version adds a second player and requires basically the same thing, only you have to get your ball to the finish faster than your opponent. Both games feature authentic sounds from the video games.
Sounds a lot better than playing it on a Nintendo huh? Huh? Eh…
Anyway, if you want to check out the games in action, head on over to Akihabara News.
