Mario Chat / Re: Help! I Slept Through a Generation

« on: May 02, 2007, 01:29:46 AM »

I still have a Super N.E.S. too, but it's a temperamental old thing and I'd love to be able to do away with it while still being able to play all the games I have for it (except "Eye of the Beholder"...boy did that ever suck...).  I wish I could get something like the Wii virtual console without shelling out for a Wii.  :(

So can you answer my questions about "Superstar Saga" and the Kart games?

Mario Chat / 'Super Mario Land 2' Enemies

« on: May 02, 2007, 12:03:42 AM »

Sorry if this has already been asked (I couldn't find anything in a search), but is there anywhere I can find what all the enemies in "Super Mario Land 2" are called?  The instruction manual only names a few, and there's no cast at the end and I can't find a list on the Mariopedia nor anywhere else on the Internet.

Hmmm.  I don't know why your username seems familiar.  Anyway I'm sorry to hear the "Sunshine" story sucks.  I'll probably rent it to see how I like it if my Cube deal pans out.  Does it follow that "more adult Mario" promise Nintendo made back when the 128-Bit Era was on the horizon?

And yeah, I'm also all for Peach's empowerment.  That was one of the (many) great things about "Mario R.P.G."  Come to think of it, does that game have an Advance title yet?

B.T.W. that thing you said about "Super Princess Peach" reminds me of how my friend's G.F. jokingly claimed one of Peach's attacks in that game was "blinding white panty-flash" (or something like that).  : )

I remember a friend of mine making a big deal about how you could see Amy's panties in Sonic Advance. So I gave him my GBA and game, let him play for a while, and then paused and did a bunch of other crap, and then showed me a slight speck of white pixel. And he acted like he had just discovered the next Minus World or something.

That reminds me of my friend the first time he played "Super Metroid" at my place.  You may remember that when she dies you briefly see her in a bikini before she vaporizes.  My friend completely freaked out when he saw that, as if "Captain N" had suddenly been interrupted by an x-rated broadcast.  Obviously he'd never been acquainted with Justin Bailey.  ;)

I have a serious question: How are there 81 pages of this silliness?  ;)

Super Mario Sunshine is worth playing...

Your username sounds familiar?  Did you come here in 2000-01?  Does "worth playing" mean it's just all right, nothing special?  Or am I misinterpreting you?

From what I see here, it looks like the choice for first new game is "Superstar Saga," since it's on a system I currently have.  I do have to ask, what kind of R.P.G. is it?

If I get James' Cube I'll definitely buy "Melee" because I can see Peach's panties in it...I mean, because I played it before and liked it.  And maybe "Sunshine."  I'll wait a while on "Thousand Year Door" because I never played through the 1st "Paper Mario" game and am going to start fresh once I get my 64 back (I loaned it to my brother for his last year of college).  If I get a D.S. (probably more a matter of "when") it looks like it will be a tossup between "New Bros." and "Peach."

Are any of the new Karts really awesome?  Are they even new games as opposed to rereleases?

You've all been very helpful, but I need the stuff I mentioned above cleared up before I make up my mind.

I've been to the list on the main site.  Just to clarify, I wasn't asking for a list of every Mario game made since 2001.  I want to know which are the absolutely essential, highly-recommended ones that I should run out and buy right now.  I'm mostly interested in adventure titles rather than puzzle games, sports games etc.  I'm hoping there's something out there with the feel of "Mario 64," "Mario R.P.G.," and the classic side-scrollers.

B.T.W. I probably won't be getting a Wii for quite a while, but I will probably be getting a free Cube from my friend who just bought a Wii.  An investment in a D.S. may also be in my future.

I dropped out of gaming almost completely when I went off to college, and I haven't bought a Mario game since I got "Paper Mario" on its release date.  Now I'm graduated and have the spare time to return to videoland, but I'm totally overwhelmed.  There are countless new games, and rereleases of old games in too many forms.  So I would love to know what the folks here are the essential Mario games for the Cube, D.S., and G.B.A.  Or rather, what a fan of the good ol' 8-64 bit Mario games would love.

I see my thread is back.  Thanks for all the help, guys.  My friend is probably going to give me his Cube, so I might buy "Super Smash Bros. Melee."  Otherwise I should have a chance to play it at my other friend's some time now that I'm moving back to his part of town.

And, although there's a good chance you won't believe me, I insist that I'm not a pervert.  This all goes back to a party where me and some friends were playing old games and somehow got on the subject of what Peach's panties would look like (we each had a different theory).  Everyone was pretty sure you couldn't see them in any game, but I said I'd make it my mission to see them.  It's a sort of "you had to be there" kinda thing. :) Now whenever the subject of Mario games comes up between any of us, somebody has to bring up Peach's panties. 

On the subject of old posts, I frequented here when I was in high school (over 5 years ago) and I'm afraid to even look at what stuff I posted.  I seem to remember bringing up the T.V. show Lexx a lot.

I haven't posted here in a long time.  I don't know if anybody even remembers me.

Anyway, I have a question.  Is it possible to see Peach's panties in any of the games?  If so, what must I do to glimpse these royal garments?

Rockhound.  I assume he pulled that name from "Lexx."  Rock Hound was the asteroid surveyor who was infected with the Insect essence in the first episode of the series.

The idea of making a 3-D game based on the worlds of "Super Mario Bros. 3" has been tossed around a lot on this board.  Nintendo would definitely make money releaseing something like that.
