Being neutral ain't an option, huh? Jedi, then. It's more fun to throw people around with the Force, I bet, and there's other Jedi powers that I'd find more useful than Force Lightning.

Heh, I was right last time, so let's hope that my luck is with me again.

Meteor Shower has teamwork to their advantage, but the Ostro might go nuts. Steel-throwin' Party has hiding and attack power, but it shouldn't take much to take 'em down. Since the Rocky Wrenches have to come out to attack, the Snifits could work together to lure them out and kill them.

Twenty coins on Meteor Shower.

Posted on 05-30-05 08:54 PM, in Did you ever hold reset while turning the power off? Link
Dodongo's Cavern? I actually have that place pretty much memorized. As for Wind Waker, you're supposed to learn a song on Dragon Roost that lets you control the winds, and once you do that it's not too bad trying to get to the second dungeon. Then again, the whole damn game is too easy, so I can't blame you for giving up.

Reset/power: I did when people were watching, because it wasn't my NES or my games and I didn't want to get yelled at or hear people ramble on about the importance of holding it in. =/ Of course, this laziness was added to since I never played games that I saved in. I sucked at Zelda back then (I was five) so I always played SMB3.

New betters start with 100, Xeo. So unless you put 100 on Porcupower last time, you're fine.

I downloaded it. It's challenging, but not in the "damn you Schwa!" way. My jumps are never timed well, so that's probably my main problem.

... I haven't even beat the first minifortress. Damn I suck. But hey, it's a good hack.

And about name butchering, try my other name, Cheveyo Chowilawu.

There were terrible games back then, too, you know. Not everything was as perfect as your memories, 'improved' by your desire for better games, lead you to believe.

Of course, I like a good sidescroller a lot, too. But I wish people who bring up the crappy games made now and want the 'good old days' back would stop forgetting that there always have been and always will be shitty games.

While I'd love to compliment the screenshots and point out minor flaws that I can see, there's something stopping me. The little white boxes with red X's in them, specifically. Everyone else seems to be able to see them, so I have no clue what would be my problem other than maybe server issues.

I'll download it once I'm able to see the screenshots. I'd like a little preview of what I'm downloading, see.

1. SMB3. Yeah, I think SMW's kinda, you know, screwed.
2. Link to the Past.
3. SSBM. Lets me beat the crap out of Pikachu! Woohoo! (I do not hate Pokemon, I actually like the games. But some little kids used to be so damn annoying...)
4. Chrono Trigger, no contest there.

My MM problems on Collector's Edition...

21 block save.
My problems with the N64 version.

... and that's it. I've never had any lag, never noticed sound distortion, and never had any freezes. Maybe I'm just really lucky.

Get a coin, mark one side with a 1, and the other with a 2. Or a 0 and a 1, I dunno.

I played once. A level 1 Human Fighter, I believe I was. The problem, however, is that the dog we had at the time (Merlin was his name) chewed up all the stuff to the point where it was unusable.

No, it states that it MAY happen. Unless your manual is different from my manual, and your loading screen is different from my loading screen.

Their powers, as Schwa has stated a couple times, have been changed from the SMB games.

Quote the Schwa, "The Red Snifit has a much higher Attack Power and Speed, and it uses fire attacks."

FF8. Indeed, NOT gaining levels is the easiest way to make it through the game.

Thanks for playing though.



Oh, and the low-level FF6 games that, as far as I've read, involve skipping EVERY random battle except those on the Veldt. Bosses give no EXP IIRC, and without the random fights there's almost no levelups. Reading through the guide for it, you can take on Guardian at Lv6. Of course, I don't think that'd be particularly EASY...


Edit: Whoops, forgot about a few forced non-boss battles, such as the Mag Roaders in the escape from the Magitek Factory.

Ah well, might as well put my last 20 coins on Sadow Rangers


Uh. Meteor Shower won. And I agree with Peardian, excellent writing.

Hrm. The Shadow Rangers have chased a defensive team onto their own turf. Not good. In addition, the Panser cannot move fast. The Shell could be dodged by a Chomp if Wacky sees it coming, though dodging an explosion's gotta be harder. Worse still, if the bomb hits part of the bridge, Panser will eventually be out of range and useless....

But the Chomps have limited range, and are outnumbered. In addition, once that control device is smashed, they won't listen.

10 coins on Shadow Rangers. It'll be close, though.

Just a warning. I've had, in the past, problems with MP freezing on me.

Aside from that and my typical suckage at Metroid games, it's a good game.

And if you like Zelda, you would be a fool not to pick up the Collector's Edition (if you can find it). That one disc was the only game I had when I first got my Cube, and it lasted for at least a month and a half.

Orange Juice. I like grapes more than oranges, but I like orange juice more than grape juice. I like passionfruit juice more, but it makes me have to piss too much. This happens to end up making me like it less.
