if mario was designed in 2010

Game designer Zach Hiwiller has created some funny what if commentary on contemporary gaming by applying some modern design trends to Super Mario Bros.
The result isn’t really eye-opening, but as a means to explain what could be wrong with some gaming today - it really conveys the point well. Could you imagine how horrible the beginning of Super Mario Bros. would be if Lakitu gave you a tutorial?
What about Facebook connectivity?
It’d be stupid.
Check out Zack’s complete post, here, and have a great weekend!
