App of the Week: iMario
Nick Mahar
iMario is simply a sound-board brought to your iPhone. iMario provides you with over thirty of the best sound clips from the classic Mario games. I have had so much fun just doing stupid things with this app. During our podcast I am constantly using it to make the coin sound when we do something good, or the game over sound when Brandon, Ricardo, or I epically fail.
Sounds Included:
- 1 up Mushroom
- Mario Dies (From Super Mario 1)
- Thwomp
- Fireball
- Brick smash noise
- Vine activated
- Underworld/Underwater/Over world Music
- Down a pipe
- Bullet Bill/Cannon Noise
- Stomp noise
- Power-up Mushroom
- Tail whack
- Invincible Star
- Coin collected
- Shell kicked
- Game Over
- Jump
- 12 Mario phrases
First off, the app doesn't claim to be a game and almost every single negative review about it is that it's not a game. If anyone with half a brain looked at the descriptions of even screen shots, they would know it's not the game. The app is a simple yet jam packed sound bound that offers some awesome Mario sounds that helps you relive your childhood and mess around with your friends.
You can even feel like Mario, if you shake the device it now throws a fireball, annoy your little brother and impress your friends! The app is just a fun little app to relive good times with friends but in real like. Take it to the park and act like you are playing Super Mario or what ever you want to do. The app is only $1 and is well worth the price. It's a perfect way to break awkward silence in many situations.
Here is a video demonstrating the sounds. Note: The sound quality has been much more improved.
