A strange little side quest
The rules may be simple on screen, but the backstory around Mario 3D Shooter is anything but tiny. A major archery competition held at Finsbury in England in 1583 drew about 3,000 participants. It also connects to a different milestone: Space Invaders arrived in 1978 and helped turn electronic games from an arcade curiosity into mainstream entertainment. The screen is modern; the urge to test skill, pattern and timing definitely is not.
