This morning Nintendo Stars announced that they would go on strike after being overworked by Shigeru Miyamoto. Mario was especially upset.
"I've been-a working with-a Shigsy all-a my life, but now he wants-a every Nintendo character to make-a 3 games by the end-a of 2003. After I-a just finished Super Mario Sunshine I was-a promised a vacation, as-a every other character was-a promised after their first-a GameCube outings."
Pikmin also said, in a puddle of tears "Bibble de beep de doop do, de se dop dee!" Something that touched the hearts of all game characters.
But not all characters went on strike, there was one who stood by Shigsy, partly because he can't talk, but he also had very small parts in his upcoming titles. Now he's going to star in a whole variety of new games. He's a classic Mario enemy who's starred in most games. He goes by the name of Goomba.
Here is his full software line up for late 2002 to 2003:
GOOMBA KONG
The evil, deformed Goomba, called Goomba Kong, has stolen the Princess Goomba and locked her in a cage. It's your job to play as Goomba and make your way up the platforms as Goomba Kong throws barrels at you, trying to force you away from the cage. As the levels progress the barrels get faster and faster and the game becomes a lot harder.
SUPER GOOMBA BROS.
The evil King Goomba has kidnapped Princess Goomba it's up to the Goomba Bros. to save the day. You get to choose whether you want to play as Goomba or Goomba. You have to go through a variety of levels, jumping on the heads of the evil Goomba clan to defeat them. But that's not all. Brand new power ups can be used for your advantage. When you collect a Green Goomba you will become bigger, a Red Goomba will give you the ability to fire red balls at your enemy and the highly rare Gold Goomba will make you invincible. On your way you will come across some bosses such as Goomba, Goomba and even the King Goomba!
SUPER GOOMBA BROS. 2
The second Goomba Bros. outing gives you the chance to play as 4 different characters, instead of the usual 2. The 4 playable characters are Goomba, Goomba, Goomba and, of course, Goomba. This time around you have to throw Goomba fruit at the evil Goomba army to destroy them. There will be one face you'll see throughout. This beast is called Goomba. Each different character has there own weaknesses and strengths. For example Goomba is a good jumper because she can use her dress to float, but Goomba is a bad jumper because he is small and fat. You'll pick up everybody’s strengths and weaknesses as you progress and in some cases certain characters will be needed to do certain tasks.
SUPER GOOMBA BROS. 3
The Goomba Bros. have gone back to there roots and improved on their outing in Super Goomba Bros. With an even bigger world and more enemies, you'll be playing this game for years to come. With an even bigger variety of items to help you on your quest. Including the Frog Goomba, Racoon Goomba and Super Racoon Goomba!
SUPER GOOMBA WORLD
Goomba and Goomba are back! This time another huge world that needs to be beaten and King Goomba needs to be banished. This adventure sees the arrival of Dino Goomba who can be ridden through levels. He can eat up any of the Goomba army and also any Goomba fruits he may come across.
SUPER GOOMBA WORLD 2: DINO GOOMBA'S ISLAND
This time around Dino Goomba gets his own game! Dino Goomba's Island is the prequel of Super Goomba World. You play the part of Dino Goomba, trying to deliver Goomba to his parents. You'll have to encounter enemies such as Goomba, who you have to fight on the moon and King Baby Goomba, all the way carrying Baby Goomba on your back.
SUPER GOOMBA RPG
Although the game isn't going to be released in Europe, you'll get to play the part as Goomba, in a turn based RPG. A new gang called the Goomba Gang have stolen the seven Golden Goomba Spirits and it's up to you to get them back. On your way you'll get to fight as King Goomba, Princess Goomba and many more characters. As you progress you'll find new and better weapons and moves to help you.
GOOMBA KART
This time all the Goomba clan are here for an all battling Kart-fest. Play as characters such as Goomba, Goomba, Goomba and even Princess Goomba! Throw Goomba Shells at you foes and mask yourself with a Ghost Goomba power-up. The game includes some brilliant multiplayer fun and a good 1-Player mode as well.
SUPER GOOMBA 64
Goomba's first 3D outing! You'll get to venture through huge 3D environments defeating Goomba after Goomba and finally King Goomba again! But that's not all, collect all 120 Gold Goomba's to meet Dino Goomba! Also there are three new power-ups, these are Red Goomba Caps, for flying, Blue Goomba Caps, for invisibility and Green Goomba Caps for invincibility.
PAPER GOOMBA
The second Goomba RPG is 3D but with 2D characters. Once again lots of adventuring is included and you'll have to face even more Goomba's that try to get in your way.
SUPER GOOMBA SUNSHINE
This time an unknown evil is mimicking Goomba and using graffiti to destroy Isle Goombfino, is it Goomba? Or maybe Goomba? Maybe it's even Goomba! But you'll have to find out yourself as you use your almighty spit to clean up the island.
Shigsy has revealed that more titles will be revealed for 2003. Could there be a Goomba Party? Well you'll have to wait and find out!

Goom City. It's like a double team. I love it.
developers rockstar have been breifly handed the goomba licence to make their final goomba game, Goomba Theft Auto: Goom City
Remember Goomba Theft Auto 3? Best game ever, and all that? Forget it, because GTA: Goom City is coming and it makes its predecessor look positively prehistoric.
First up, goom City is twice the size of the city from Goomba Theft Auto 3 - that's not just one of the islands, that's twice as big all three GTA3 islands combined. Which frankly, is astonishingly large. Considering just how vast GTA3 was, expect to be playing Goom City until you're old and grey.
But don't get too excited, or you might deplete your body of its excitement juices too soon. Get this - GTA: Goom City will allow you to enter indoor environments. Yes, now you can calmly walk into a downtown casino, pull out your piece, shoot the place up and leave with the Goom! You'll also be able to enter hotels, discos and the like - this will have a huge effect on the way the game plays, and obviously increases the amount of movement you can make around Goom City.
The game will now carry a huge arsenal of 40+ weapons, the largest amount of firepower in any Goomba Theft Auto game. New weapons include a machete, hardware items like Screwdrivers and Chainsaws plus many more nasty implements of doom. The targeting system has also been tweaked, the one slight problem with the otherwise unblemished predecessor. Tired of seeing the same old Goom-cars drive past in GTA3? Goom City will be teeming with over 120 different vehicles - that's 70 more than the last game. You want Goombikes? You got it. You want Goom limos? Done. How about roller-Gooms? Okey-dokey. Oh yeah, how d'ya like to hijack a GOOM helicopter and take it for a buzz around the city? Sorted, nae bother.
As for the sub-games (GTA3 had taxi missions etc.), Goom City contains a Goomba delivery section, so you can zip around town with a Goomby Meaty on your bike. Other new touches include the ability to hide from gunfire behind Goombas (harsh, but they were going to die eventually) and a lot less slow-down, especially in frenzied scenes of mass destruction. More particle effects and lighting effects will also be added - basically, the game looks the nuts.
How much did you love the radio stations from the last game? A lot? Well you'll love GTA: Goom City's music even more. For that 80's vibe, Rockstar have included 10 stations playing over 90 licenced tunes from bands like Goomba Priest, Goomba and the Goomba, GrandGoomba Flash and Flock Of Goombas. Expect chat-meister Goomba to make an early appearance as host of the Goombox station too. All in all there'll be over 10 hours worth of muzak to bump, grind and murder to. Your character will be voiced by Goomba too, for that real murderous vibe.
Yes, after reading all that, you're quite within your rights to be wet. Order it now, and make yourself happy forever.

Shisgy has just announced 2 brand new games that will be released late 2003:
GOOMBA PARTY
This time you and all you pals can have a proper board game! With the selection of either Goomba, Goomba, Goomba, Goomba, Princess Goomba or Goomba it's your job to make your way around a giant board and trying to beat your mates in mini-games along the way. There are 4 confirmed mini-games so far, with more to come:
Goomba Sledd
Hop on a flattened Goomba and ride down a slippery slope whilst trying to stay on course and come first. There are the usual Goomba Kart-clone power-ups to stop your foes with and, of course, the prize of a Golden Goomba if you win.
Tasty Goomba
Try to eat your way through a giant Goomba in order to win a Golden Goomba. Although very little details were given, it seems promising.
Goomba-Sketch-Test
Much like Mario Party 4's mini-game, you must follow a trail of Goomba spit, trying to keep a very to the line. Unlike Mario Party 4 you can collect water to spit on you opponents track to make it harder for them.
Goomba Volleyball
A mini-game with a twist! You play the ball! While you're being thrown over a net you must try to spit on King Goomba who is trying to have a nice game with Goomba. The more times you hit King Goomba in the eyes the more points you get, whoever gets the most points by the end gets a Golden Goomba!
GOOMBA'S MANSION
Finally Goomba gets the lime-light! Although he's always been his brothers shadow in gaming, he's finally got his own game! On your way to a mansion you'll meet up with a man called Professor E. Goomba, he'll give you the Poltergoomb 3000 to clean that dirty mansion up with! But watch out! There are Goomba's inside messing up the house you're trying to clean! You'll have to destroy these monster and clean the house to find your brother, Goomba, who has been buried in a pile of dust!
Wow! 2003's gonna be an action-packed year! Let's hope, like Dringo said, the Demo at E2 of 100 Goomba's will be released. Well, hoping worked with Goomba Party!
