McDonalds has a new set of Super Mario Happy Meal toys, starring the leaping plumber and his usual gang of friends and frenemies, and people are buying the hell out of them. Adult Nintendo fans are descending en masse on the fast food joints in aꦐn attempt to collect all 8 character toys before the promotion ends on May 22. It's prompting some serious introspection on Twitter.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started p꧅ursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
