If anything, we have more access to obscure content. We have obscure movies we’ve found streaming and watch repeatedly. We love Trolljegeren and Interstate 60.
We also still have some weirdo discs too like the live action Mario movie.
My least favorite part about the 20s Mario was that the music was so… generic. Music has always been a huge part of that franchise, but when Mario fights Donkey Kong we get Thunderstruck by AC/DC?
I didn’t have that one, but I did somehow have an episode of the Super Mario Bros Super Show on VHS. Just one episode though. No fuckin’ idea where it could possibly have come from. But my only other two tapes were Lady and the Tramp, and The Aristocats so 5-7 year old me watched a lot of the Bros. After a while there was a whole several minutes near the middle that was just static and gibberish because the tape was damaged, from a combination of overuse and being handled by a five year old.

The 90s Mario movie is fun, and I’ll die on that hill.
The 90s Mario was weird and fun and the 20s Mario was generic and lame.

Well, it’s not hurting anyone, so your opinion is fine.
