Video Game Chat / Re: Emulation/Roms

Hmmmm...

As far as I can tell, as long as you own the games you are running on an emulator, you're okay. The guys that run sites providing roms are blatently illegal, but...

Just be fair to the programmers and don't steal games.

Buying most soundtracks is next to impossible. Sadly.

I think we should give large amounts of $$$ to all those who help with TMK... especially to those that help with WTMK... especially those that do funny voices.

Mario Chat / Re: About Myamoto's "Mature" Mario
« on: June 04, 2000, 02:13:51 PM »
Mature, hopefully, won't mean anything major. More detailed graphics (more realistic?) and maybe more difficult challenges would be nice. Remember when extra lives were important? Most games today can be continued forever with no loss -- why garner 1ups when you can just continue from the same point?

Actually, what I want brought back is POINTS and a way to save high scores.

Mario Chat / Re: Could Mario be a bad guy?

1) We have only seen the story of Mario vs. Bowser through Mario's perception.
    Actually, we've also seen it through the eyes of Yoshi (see SMW2:YI and Yoshi's Story) and Luigi (see Mario is Missing).

2)Who's to say that the Mushroom Kingdom wasn't Bowser's to begin with?
   Well, given that the Mushroom people keep saying that Bowser is invading... also, Bowser never claimed TMK was his.

3)Everyone says that bowser is evil, but why doesn't he ever kill anything? He didn't kill any of the inhabitants of the Mushroom Kingdom, he aloud them to live in stone form, and put the yoshis in eggs, but Mario will squash his enemies without thinking twice.
   Wait a sec... Bowser's killed Mario hundreds of times! Why do you think I grab all those 1up mushrooms? ;)
   Also, direct evidence does not exist to prove that Mario actually KILLS anything. He thwomps them, true, but generally the enemies then disappear in a puff of smoke (Koopa magic?) or fall/run away off the screen.

4)It's undeniable how cruel Mario is to Yoshi. He in Super Mario World (SNES) he punches Yoshi in the back of the and forces him to eat enemies and fruit that hasn't been washed.
  Actually, those punches aren't -- they are just cute directional movements that are misunderstood by us due to the two dimensional view we have (this also applies to the misconception that Mario bashes blocks with his HEAD, as opposed to with his fist).
  Secondly, Yoshi eats anything and everything, and of his own will. Note that in SMW Yoshi eats ANY berry he walks by.

5)Mario is constantly taking other people's coins without asking.
  This is an interesting point... generally, the coins Mario gathers are:
   1 - Floating out in the fields. These would obviously belong to whoever found them, as there is no claim to objects in the wild.
   2 - Inside ? blocks. Again, the laws of TMK seem to suggest that items in blocks belong to whoever claims them first.
   3 - Inside Bowser's castles, etc.. In this case, Mario is actually reclaiming the coins Bowser stole from the Mushroom people.

  Thus, it is my estimation that Bowser is, indeed, evil, and that Mario is good.

  Of course, that still leaves the whole Donkey Kong Junior game open for debate....

Quoting from the Nintendo Code Book (http://codebook.stals.com):

 =>[SMBLL] 100's of Lives: Begin the game as Mario, and walk towards the first set of bricks floating in midair; a Koopa Troopa should be walking inside. Bop the ? block to release the Mushroom, then bounce it over the last block to claim it but do NOT bounce out the Koopa and do NOT scroll the screen past the first few brick columns. Break the 2cd and 4th bricks, leaving the Koopa dancing on the 5th brick. Stand on the empty ? block, the make a small hop atop the Koopa. You will begin bouncing on the Koopa shell, and will eventually earn tons of lives!

Yours truly is working on that...and, to solve the lack of music problem, I've also been working on renditions of popular Mario tunes on kazoo.

Well, if not kazoo, then cheap plastic slide whistles. I'm flexible.

Mr. Face says the voice acting was AWESOME. Mr. Face NE-VER wrong!

Actually, I know the answer... but I can't divulge it, as the voice actor wants to remain anonymous... something about being afraid of being beaten by the Nintendorks.
