The Ethan Arts & Studios Blog

My new buys from the My Nintendo Store on the official Nintendo of America website and Amazon via Prime membership. I got a replacement USB-C charger for my Nintendo Switch 2, after I lost my previous one at McDonald’s, and Super Mario Galaxy™ + Super Mario Galaxy 2 / Super Mario Bros.™ 40th Anniversary Pin Set (for My Nintendo rewards members like me here, who has lots of Platinum Points, I have 2385 points, and I get points every time I play games on the Nintendo Switch 2 console), and I pre-ordered The Casagrandes: Peppers Primavera! graphic novel last year on November 27, 2025 from Amazon, back when I had a Prime subscription.

Hey all, Ethan here. Please read this lengthy message regarding my age and responsibilities being adult in my mid-to-late 20s.

Sorry as I'm late night (as I got too busy earlier with 1 project and went to Olive Garden for lunch), but Happy (Late) Easter! 😀🥚

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is now playing in theatres! 😀 I'm hyped to see this tomorrow in theatres at 11:30am CST at one of my local AMC Theatres locations at South Barrington 24 in South Barrington, IL (a suburban city of Chicago). I'll be making a video from my visit there and my review of the movie. As a lifelong longtime fan of the Mario series, as I've been playing the franchise since 2011 (before that year, I played Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem on the Nintendo DSi in 2010) starting with Super Mario 3D Land on the Nintendo 3DS.

(This was written yesterday) I finally got my ticket in for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, as it's coming out tomorrow in theatres, but I'm watching 1 day after it's general release date tomorrow! 😀
