Super Mario Land: the drunken edition
This is how I picture it: it's 3:30am and you've just got off the express train back to your cramped flat after a long drunken night at a secret Kiiiiiii show or Delaware exhibi+ion, where you down a few more beers to keep the buzz alive, and that's when your friend, er, 'Steve' (apparently) breaks out the Super Game Boy.
Knowing full well that his grasp of English is even more tenuous than yours with Japanese, he gives you the full play-by-play anyway, because he knows that's what makes it so funny, and it is.
I have to imagine it this way because it's almost impossible to get your head around otherwise. I still don't understand why the Goomba broke the house windows to bite the pizza.
Possibly drunk japanese guy rambles over Mario Land (in English) [sp0rsk's niconico re-upload, same guy/same schtick to Super Ghouls'n Ghosts in Japanese]

This made me want to go back and play the game. I hadn't played it since it came out nearly 20 years ago, on the original blurry green and yellow Game Boy. I know I played it for at least months back then, possibly a year, and never finished it. Just now I played the game again, and even though I sucked at it, I beat it in less than 45 minutes.
It was interesting that they had the 'dry bones' style enemy back then, in the form of the jumping zombies.

Hey, his name is Steve and he's from Portugal! Are you doubting him? What reason would he have to lie?!

Oh, and this is certainly an often overlooked Mario title. I played this game to death as a kid.

Also, this game had one of the most satisfying endings ever.
