    Mario Bros. has pissed me off for the last time. I couldn't find the hammer so I repeatedly stomped on it. BTW, it still plays.






    For reals though..... I wish I could bring myself to smash a fucking game! A few come to mind !  

     



    It's the kind of game that is better in small doses. Grinding it for almost two weeks made me loathe the thought of playing it anymore.







     



    I hear ya! I've grinded out this game for a long time in small doses and can still not till a fucking score in 1 life
  • I've never beaten a Ninja Gaiden game, and the only reason I was able to complete GnG was because it was one of the first 10 or so games I had growing up. Now, I had never played Mario Bros. for any real length of time before last week. Compared to other arcade NES titles, this one has to be the easiest. Maybe I need to try Popeye again.
  • I didn't grown up with GnG and it is still way too easy.

    This... this nightmare made cart form.  
  • I grew up with GnG. I sucked at it then, and I suck at it now. Haha.

    Hopefully nowhere.
  • Oh god I feel bad instantly for saying that.
  • I tried tournament mode last night. I couldn't beat more than two or three guys. Blah.



    Still this game is fun enough so that I don't regret paying ten bucks for it.

    Eh, I wouldn't feel bad! It's a sign of weakness. Regret nothing, say anything

  • The move should be over today..........Have had my NES hooked up on a little CRT in the corner practicing every now and then.
  • Score updated. I know I could do better, but beating 500k has been my goal for the last few days. Whew. Even if I can advance to the next round, I'm dreading playing a puzzle game (which I've never even heard of prior to the tournament, let alone played).

    It's a puzzle game where you can get more points playing it as a shooter. Weird game.

    Was on game B  that was merely a typo when i posted the score , thanks for the heads up

     
  • Score updated.



    It seems I will be out on this round as I would have to almost triple my current score in order to advance. I will keep trying and hopefully I can improve on my score.  
  • I am hanging by a thread at tier 2. Sweet.

    Maybe I will give it another run, but most likely not. If I don't make to round 2, so be it.

    I can't stand this port.

    I'm hanging by even less of a thread. But there is no way I'm playing this again. I've learned my lesson after trying for almost two weeks and failing.

    Well, I raise a toast for both of our hard work this year going down the drain thanks to a game we can't come to understand.

    Cheers!
