But it's not like you'll get a game over without more lives than you'd get just by playing through the levels. NSMB was insultingly easy. Well, just playing through to beat Bowser was, anyway.

Easy ... yet fun.
That was a joke.

I hate it when people criticize games because they weren't challenging enough. I HATE games that are impossible to beat (no, I'm not talking about games with infinite levels that crash after level 256). If I can't actually finish it because it's near impossible to finish, I don't feel I should've started it in the first place.

NSMB was on par with the originals except for the ridiculous amount of extra lives.  That is, the challenge of the level design was comparable... we've (well, most of us) just improved over time.

One of these days, I plan on beating the game. I get into a habit of playing a game up until close to the end, and then stopping.  Not because it's hard, but because I never want them to end, I guess.
This is a secret coded message.

Question: How do you tell if

A) The game is "near impossible to finish"

or

B) I am just bad

A few Megaman X games are like that. Whenever I start one up, I usually just quit midplay due to the difficulty. Some of those games are pretty difficult.

...I guess they aren't difficult for some.

Battletoads is pretty tough I suppose.

I can beat this game in about 20 minutes. For the Megaman X games, they're easy to me. I'm a video game pro :)
The Mario series is the best! It has every genre in video games but RTS'! It also has a plumber who does different roles, a princess, and a lot of odd creatures who don't seem to poop!

Uh....good....for you.

I'm pretty good at the classic Megaman games (though I'm sure there's someone here that will tell me that isn't very impressive). Pretty much everything I do now isn't too impressive, though I'm proud of 'em anyway.

I can beat NES Mega Mans no sweat. Mega Man X games are a little harder and probably take more time for me to beat.
P.S. Vid is a wimp and a n00b for giving up.
That was a joke.

Ouch! I feel like a whimp of a gamer now.  :P

I need to try out something harder...then get really good at it and brag about it. Yeah. >:3

You know, the Koopa in the Stairs Trick is also possible in New Super Mario Bros. The best way to do it is in the end of 2-2, (I think thats the number, but in case I am wrong, it is the desert stage with an underground lake). It is quicker than visiting 1-1 again and again.
Too bad I can play SMB because my Wii died in a thunderstorm...
Don't use real life to avoid videogames, it is not healthy to escape from problems.
