Popular Vote: Super Obama World owes a lot to Mario’s first SNES adventure, but in this version, the first African-American president of the USA gets to fight his way through the 16-bit landscapes of Alaska, Arizona, Illinois and D.C., stomping lipstick-wearing-pigs, money-toting lobbyists and rogue Saks Fifth Ave personal shoppers, collecting American flag pins, and avoiding the treacherous Bridge to Nowhere. But make no mistake: like the presidential campaign, this game is tough. Make change your game at superobamaworld.com.
USA! USA! Feeling good about our neighbours to the south (and that doesn’t mean Brossard)? Why not let everyone know with some rousing patriotic marching band music from the United States Marine Band, the very same that will usher in President Obama on his inauguration day in January. Or pick up the free “Stars and Stripes Forever” ringtone, and have your own inauguration every time your mother calls you. Semper Fi, nerds, at www.marineband.usmc.mil/audio_resources/
