Solar_Crimson 10/19/21 3:14:54 PM #7:	Mario's "biggest adventure yet" is a 12-level romp that can be beaten in less than an hour (maybe even half an hour). I can appreciate it for what it is due to the time it came out, but Land 2 was such an improvement that it's probably up there with Street Fighter 2 and Kirby's Adventure as "Most Improved Video Game Sequels". Also Tatanga needs to return. --- I often wonder if we are growing as a people... or in fact, regressing. <cite>Solar_Crimson posted [p:959193461] in Super Mari...

Machete 10/19/21 3:23:46 PM #10:	I had a lot of fun with that one growing up. Also, koopas leave bombs instead of shells (lol) and instead of fireball, there is superball which bounces 90 degrees... and had a neat gimmick where it would collect coins it hit, so many were placed out of reach just for that purpose (including rooms literally filled entirely with coins). That Easter Island boss was stressful as fuck too. --- I do not receive notifications, so using the @ feature will not do anything.

Machete 10/19/21 3:28:10 PM #13:	wickerman posted... I wonder how the GB pulled off that game. It's more like a SNES game than anything else! It was definitely a much better made game but didn't have the same charm as the original imo. I did enjoy looking for the hidden exits though and it was always fun to discover what would change on the map screen.

Yeah, and you probably know this, but the "Koopas" are different as well. They only explode after jumped on because the devs couldn't program in the ricochet effect for the shells into the Game Boy at the time.

Tom Clark 10/19/21 3:56:32 PM #21:	Solar_Crimson posted... Also Tatanga needs to return. Darn right. I like Land - I have very fond memories of getting it for Christmas with my GB when I was 8 and just rinsing through the AA batteries. It's very short, and the scrolling shooter levels were a bit of an odd change of pace, but I think that it does really well in having its own feel, and the worlds do feel very varied (although 2-1 and 2-2 are pretty darn similar) --- https://imgur.com/6eF0W <cite>Tom Clark posted [p:959194629] in Super Mari...
