Like many of you, I grew up on Nintendo and fell in love with all of their crazy characters: Mario, Luigi, Link, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, etc. When I had learned there were actual cartoon shows based on these characters, I made it a point to never miss an episode. Sadly, I never kept that promise as the allure of doing things outdoors like a normal child always distracted me, but 1UP recently helped me feel all nostalgic with this retrospective of the most popular videogame-related cartoons from the present and the past. If you want to take a trip down memory lane, check it out! Oh man, I remember the verbal battles I had with friends over which Sonic cartoon was better!

    Ourcolony.net continues to stir the attention of gamers as a new photo was discovered on the site: a digital close-up of the Ferrari 360 Modena. Ferrari's have graced the covers of both Project Gotham Racing games, so it leaves gamers to assume it's related to that game. Not only that, but the 360 in the car's title further fuels the rumor that the next-gen Xbox will be named the Xbox 360.
