I just played through level 1-1 by replicating all the sounds in the proper order and approximate timing. I wonder what I could have used those neurons for instead.

Awesome. I've been looking for some sounds to replace the Napoleon Dynamite ones I've been using as my sounds for Gaim.

How did I miss Super Mario? I was a gamer kid in the 80s. Maybe it was an American thing.

I have no new gaming systems, but I'm a child of the 80's, and I've lately been playing Super Mario 3 on the NES, and Mario Kart on the N64. I love them both.

Never before or since have such simple waveforms so influenced a generation. Thanks for posting this!

AWES. SOME. I can't type anything else without swearing at how awesome this is.

That was enjoyable.

Tangent: this soundboard made me think of other soundboards, specifically those with celebrity voices, and you have to wonder if those are ever useful to actually play phone pranks on people. It is especially questionable with most soundboards because the clips generally have background noise and whatnot, or odd inflections suited to the context they are being taken out of.

However, there is a Jack Black sound board out there that has clips from the Tenacious D album, and so they're crisp with no background noise, and a very conversational context. I successfully used it to prank my wife at work.

Of course, it helped that she was working on publicity for a Jack Black movie at the time...

"Hello?"
"It's-a me, Mario!"
"Hi, can I help you?"
*crunch* *whoop* *whoop* *ding*
"Sir? Hello?"
*boing*
"Stop calling me!"

So, so good. Each sound is burned into my brain, and thats just the way I like it.

[This is good.]

Somewhat off-topic, did anyone else (who played it) find it interesting that Nintendo tried to infuse Mario DS with some elements of the original NES Super Mario Brothers game, like Mario growing to super size and being able to smash bricks? I think that that, and The New Super Mario Brothers game coming out soon for the DS, suggests that maybe Nintendo are trying to take the franchise back to its roots.

Also, I second shmegegge 's call for being able to download the songs. All of a sudden I have an urge to create a WinXP sound scheme using these sounds.

Wow, this brings back some great memories. It's amazing how a sound can trigger so many emotions.
