Even casual fans of the Mario franchise will admit that the constant changing of worlds, surfaces, temperatures and even styles is what made this such a memorable series. If there is water between Mario and his goal, you can bet that there is a Big Bertha around. In the early games, unless you had a star that made you invincible, there was no real way to deal with Big Bertha. You could fry her with a fireball, but she is incredibly difficult to hit, and if you miss, chances are, you are lunch. The fact that the simple Big Bertha munched me so many times and made me put my fist through my television set, she is now my favourite video game character of all time. She looks so cool, like a robot fish who isn’t going to take any guff from anyone.
I don’t know if Big Bertha is going to be in Super Mario Galaxy 2 Wii, but I sure hope so. I can’t wait to run like the wind away from her instead of trying to face her and fight. There are only a handful of characters that are this tough to beat, and Big Bertha is one of them. She needs to be in every Mario game until the end of time.
