>haven't played it in years>decide on a whim to ILLEGALLY download it to play on an EMULATOR for FREE>play with a beat up ps2 clone controller >still as fun as I remember thoroughly enjoying myselfI love this game so fuckin much bros. Its platforming fun distilled into its most pure form. No unnecessary fluff, just simple fun. The soundtrack is the best one on the Gameboy for me.
>>749025117you played it again after the credits rolled for the hard mode right?thats the intended experience
>>749025117The physics are absolute dogshit
everything felt too small, and the ghosting on a gameboy made it really hard to see anything when the screen scrolled, but the ending theme makes it all worth ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcQcC0OxU1o
I didn’t like it. SMB1 is that pure distilled platforming juiciness you were talking about, land is a bargain bin ripoff that ends in 2 seconds and has Mario slip and slide like he’s running on butter.Land 2 is good though
>>749025117It was the first game I ever owned and will always hold a special place in my heart because of that.I love how weird and unusual for Mario the world and enemy designs were. Tarantulas, easter island statues throwing boulders at you, UFOs and ninjas. Would love to see a modern Mario lean into that aesthetic more.
>>749025306not OP but I didn't notice much of a difference beyond the first world
>>749025117If you're emulation it, why not download the colorized version?
>>749027780Soulless
>>749025117i traded a mortal kombat game for this and then beat SML twice in one sitting the day i got it. i had played SML2 before and assumed 1 was going to be of similar length but shittier controls/visuals.so i always see it as kinda shit.
>>749025117Catchy music. The jumps are easier when you don't run at all. But you might need to in hard mode, I forget.
MARIOI HOPE YOU'RE READY TO DIEMY SPACESHIP SHOOTS THREE BALLS AT A TIMEYOUR AIRCRAFT CAN'T COMPARE TO MINEYOU'RE NEVER GONNA LEAVE MY CASTLE ALIVE
BING BINGWAA HOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
>>749028096>It's ok when Nintendo does it
>>749028447>softened wario and removed bed textureworse whrn they do it, actually
>>749025117Enjoy your game, OP. The one positive thread on all of /v/ since its inception and it's plagued by negative retards back to back. I never played it but I thoroughly enjoy the Muda Kingdom song (had to look it up)
>>749028332peaque
>>749028714They had four colors per tile to work with and one of those colors had to be transparent for sprites, cut them some slack.
>>749028863nodo it right or leave it be
>>749029013Okay, how were they supposed to "do it right"? The Mega Man way, with all the sprite flicker and slowdown that comes with it?
>>749029734they could have not milked the game boy hardware for over a decade, for starters.
>>749028863weirdly enough the blue part of the bed fits exactly in an 8x8 tile, so they could have used one more color on the mattressi think the gba screen having shit contrast is the real answer, and they wanted to make things more readable
>>749030103Is it their fault that the Game Boy sold like blowjobs on Two Dollar Blowjob Tuesday for that long?
>>749030103>>749030709Also, the Game Gear was a lot more advanced than the Game Boy, and look how that battle of the console wars ended.
>>749030762yeah i'm glad we all learned that releasing a console that's too expensive with too few games is a bad idea haha
>>749025117Based Super Mario Land enjoyer. I'm in the same boat. Love this game.
>>749030945haha yeah what a silly mistake it would be to repeat
>>749030945Oh you silly goober
I remember my buddy showing me yoshi’s island back in 2006. I had forgotten how beautiful snes games looked because I had moved onto Xbox/xbox360/ps2 and “modern” consoles
Mario Land 3 is the best one
>>749025117Is there a fully commented decomp for this game yet? This game has bad physics and I want to get Claude to fix it.
>>749025338this
>>7490349682*
>>749035205This. (((Wario))) being a freakish monstrosity should be canon.
>>749028714That's something I really never knew
>>749025117Both the gameboy mario games are interesting and FUNAlso shout out to wario world war 1
