The 'Shroom:Issue XXVI/Top 10

Top 10 by Hello Everybody! Welcome to my new section, the Top Ten. Here, I'll give some of my top ten Mario Moments. An today's top ten is about "secrets". The Mario franchise is chock full of them, and today I'll count off the top ten greatest. Why top ten? Because I'm too lazy to go any further. So, pull up a bean bag for:

10: Eternal Star:Mario Party
Out of all the games in it's franchise, the original Mario Party had the best boards. They were all themed after a character, all were simple, and exploded with creativity. While the Eternal Star was different from the other boards, it was certainly just as good. Fighting the Koopa Kids for stars, using teleporters, and trekking across grafittied stars were all perks to this secret board. What always had me admiring this board was how to obtain it, you need to get *dramatic pause* 100 STARS!!!!! They knew yoou would be hyped up to get this secret, and they sure had a right to.

9: Black and White Yoshi: Yoshi's Story
Although an innocent and easy game at heart, I can honestly say I've had my fair share of aggrevating experiences with Yoshi's Story. I feel rather alone in this department, which is kind of surprising seeing as how so much can kill you. That's why Black and White Yoshi are such cool characters, they're almost invincible! They can sure take a punch, they're not picky about their food, and they are overall fun to play with. Whoever says this game is to easy can say it without regret, but for me, I'm nothing without a dark colored Yoshi at my side.

8: Ness: Super Smash Bros.
While not a Mario secret per say, Ness was a nice addition to an already decent roster of characters. I know that there are few people out there who think this character is broken, or feel Captain Falcon was the better secret character, but Ness was still a cool character. Not only was he interesting as a character, but he also gave America hope for thhe Earthbound franchise. True, we haven't recieved a new game since Earthbound, but it's still kept the fans quiet for a few seconds. My only complaint was, why didn't he have the moves he had in Smash Bros. in his own game. It would be espesscially cooler if he conatantly shouted, "PK FIRE"! in Earhtbound. But, what can you do?

Will Be filled in later due to time constraints. Sorry!
