I really want the e-shop to start carrying the Russian Exclusive Mario games after finding out the system had Super Mario 1-3 +21 other Super Mario platformer games.


25 Mario games on a single 8 bit system can you imagine?

Judging from the leaves changing colors I believe that the events in that game span more than one week. I am disappointed by this false advertising.

I take it as a pejorative, like "dutch treat" or something.

P.s. I tapped out at six minutes. I thought it had been more like twenty minutes. :smithcloud:

Duck hunt is still not on the e-shop, maybe they're have too many issues with having the second player control the duck. I mean the second player controlling the duck was a pretty big part of the game.

I got to the kill screen that way and it was amazing, no ending just glitches.

Haha, I never knew Duck Hunt had a kill screen. I guess that confirms that my best friend in elementary school who claimed his dad got up to level 200 was a filthy loving liar.

Yeah but you gotta understand at the time there was no internet, so I was pretty pissed and I thought the game was broken(well it was in a way) and that there were still levels beyond. I had no idea what a killscreen was either.

I did this twice getting the killscreen. I thought I was defeated all those years when actually I had won.

No, no, not you, you're not supposed to be playing smartphone games. Every less geeky person around you is who they're going after, and they probably will just play Candy Crush anyway because someone told them about it and they got addicted.

An interesting side effect to the Wii-U not having a stable online infrastructure like PSN or Live which do security checks, you can get game enhancers to cheat at all the Wii-U games.

Or maybe you don't want to see just how powerful you can become in Wonderful 101? Or Mario Kart going beyond all maximum speeds.

It's bound to happen eventually. I mean they brought back those neutered game genies for the more recent systems. But they sucked because the companies made it sure that you couldn't cheat in any meaningful way to get achievements. Also no infinite lives were allowed or infinite ammo. poo poo that the older genies stated right on the package you could do.

I like Mario for most of my life except for like 1991 - 1994 when I only had a Sega Genesis and not a SNES, and I didn't want my friends to think I was "poor" so I'd be like nah, Sonic is the new poo poo, gently caress that fat plumber Genesis does what Nintendon't
