Welcome to The Animated Arcade!

John and Aaron are reviewing and riffing on 1989's "The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!/The Legend Of Zelda" animated series! They also share trivia about the guest stars, writers, and the cartoon's original, unaltered soundtrack!

The mysterious “Fred Van Winkle” (Norman Fell) wanders into Mario Bros. Plumbing after having been asleep since 1929! Can Mario and Luigi help Fred get with the times, or will those times (and ours) be wasted?

Then, Ganon kidnaps the King of Hyrule to ransom him for the Triforce! Link and Zelda must team up with a shapely ninja to rescue both the King and Ganon’s uncharacteristically elegant new ride in “Sing For The Unicorn”!
