Finally beat New Super Mario Bros. Wii 100% of the way. All coins found, and tons of fun had along the way. Damnit, now I'm sad that it's over! Hurry up with Galaxy 2, alright Miyamoto?! I'm off to bed to dream of more Mario fun, so I'll see you guys in a few, short hours.

Earlier today, I was thinking about G4, and just how little video game programming they show. XPlay is still around, and Attack of the Show has a game focus now and again, but altogether there's a real lull in video game content. I guess they're too busy showing Cops and Cheaters to be bothered with putting together original video game-related content.

Back in the day, all sorts of networks had video game shows. One of the ones that really sticks out in my mind is Nick Arcade. It was ridiculous...cheesy...idiotic...and just plain fun to watch. It mixed in fake video games with real-world games, and then in the final round you actually got to be in a video game. That part of the show as the best, simply because the act of running around inside a game just meant looking at a TV while you were running in front of a green screen.

While I was thinking about Nick Arcade, I realized that there are probably a lot of you that didn't get to check the show out. It was only on Nickelodeon, and cable wasn't as prevalent back in those days. With that said, I thought I'd offer up an episode of the show to see what you guys think!
