A Cubs fan is making vintage Nintendo-style videos to celebrate the Cubs' World Series run

Watching the Cubs play in their first World Series in 71 years -- with a chance to win their first championship in 108 -- has Chicago fans asking a lot of questions. Questions like, "Is this the year we put the curse nonsense to rest?" and "Does goat sausage taste good?" and "What if the Cubs' postseason run were a vintage Nintendo game?"

For the Cubs' previous series this October, we have Donkey Kong Country:

And, of course, Super Mario Bros.:

This means that if the Cubs end up winning their first World Series championship since 1908, they might just have to take a victory lap with Super Mario Kart.
Watch the Cubs host World Series Game 3 tonight, with air time at 7:30 p.m. ET and game time at 8 p.m. on FOX.
