Mario Bros (Old Green Version!)

So its Popeye. Never really played this one.... better fire it up.  

[carlsson]

Yeah, Popeye is fairly unknown to me as well. I saw that the arcade version was last played in S12 (Sept 2015) while the original one was played thrice, last in S6 (March 2009) so if the difference is significant other than visuals, perhaps try both?

[Deteacher]

Maybe it's just me, but I think it's easier to punch the bottles in the upgraded Arcade version.  Hit detection seems off in the original one, so I hope we're playing the Arcade version.
