Thoughts on Tetris The Grandmaster? Is the exam mechanic in 3 good or bad design? Favourite TGM game?
Hold is a crutch mechanicTI is for babies
I can't get past level 10. Very little experience with Tetris. How do I into TGM?

After thoroughly enjoying Warioland II, I decided to play the first Warioland since I heard it was better than the second one. Unfortunately, I'm not having a good time with this game.Most of my problems with the game revolve around Wario himself. First, he moves and jumps at a snail's pace; furthermore, the ability to take damage and shrink is quite annoying, especially when combined with the first issue. Compared to Warioland II, Wario in Super Mario Land 3 feels like a neutered version of Mario. Admittedly, the game does have 'MARIO' in the name, but that still doesn't change the fact that playing as Wario is not a fun time.There are some parts of the game I do like, such as: >Sprites>Level design (for the most part)>The hat systemBut to me, they don't balance out the bad stuff. This is all just my opinion, and I can see why some people would enjoy this game. What are your thoughts on Warioland 1?
Wario being slower and bulkier made sense to me, dashing and tackling enemies was and and different, more aggressive than Mario games. Also ground pound.I honestly feel like it's an amazing game.I never played II though, or the others except for Virtual Boy Wario Land which I loved as well
>>12717449I understand Wario feeling bulkier, but I personally think Warioland II was slightly better when it came to making Wario feel like a walking tank.Perhaps I was too harsh when writing the original post
Warioland 2 is the best of the three. 3 is close, but annoying because it doles out your base abilities really slowly and makes you backtrack through the same levels repeatedly. 1 is just incredibly slow, clunky and boring, a really half baked concept that 2 got right.
Warioland 1 has short levels and you can move faster when you have the Flightcap. Or when you're charging.
For me 1 is insanely replayable, meanwhile 2 and 3 are the sort of puzzle based games that are kinda boring to replay once you know the solutions to the puzzles. I especially can't stand WL3 anymore, it's funny how you can tell who played those games or not because there are often people claiming that 2 and 3 sucks because "you're invicible" when in reality the punishment for getting hit even just ONCE in WL3 often sends you back at least as much if not more than in most platformers. Anyway I had all 3 as a kid, I've 100%'d all 3 and played them many times; so there is that. But for, now, some 25-30 years later, I wouldn't even think of replaying 3. Everytime I think of replaying 2, I just end up giving up on the game after a few levels out of boredom; but 1, I'll always go through the entire game again.
They could've saved this game by making it fully polygonal
I liked Killer Instinct.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLYBlQIf2A0
>>12712220>They could've saved this game by making it 20fps
>>12714362That's literally Janet Jackson
>>12712220Weren't all "Ultra64"-branded arcades a lie anyway? They didn't even share the same hardware specs.
>>12714942>>12715049Actually Janet Jackson
Who was the best character?
>>12717041Psylocke for my pp
>>12717059>BeastThe ton with wits.
>>12717041I liked walking upside down on the ceiling with Beast.
Wolverine, easily>combos and specials do a ton of damage>specials have a bunch of invincibility frames you can abusePsylocke kind of sucks, she has like a bunch of shitty versions of the other characters attacks that leave her way more vulnerable than theirs do
>>12717041>Who was the best character?Obviously Psylocke, she was the fanservice character.
Don’t mind me, I’m just posting some Zelda artwork
>>12711959What's weird to me is that they left out the bombchu girl
>>12714082the entire premise of MM is that they are not the same character thoughsoevermayhowbeit
>>12715569A classic, this one *sips*
>>12712793It makes sense when you realize that Kafei is Link's Terminan counterpart
>>12711889This is actually, legitimately the single biggest flaw of that questline. It's close to being something you could piece together without being told, but the name 'poacher's saw' throws you off and prevents you from seeing the natural connection it has to the carpenters.
Just finished this and boy does it go down the crapper at the ending. The final level is way too short and simple, the boss sucks, and everything gets resolved way too fast.Also making Jade some kind of super special girl with unexplained superpowers was beyond unnecessary, and kinda shits all over the theme of a concerned citizen making a difference through sheer bravery and grit.All the stuff on Hillys is very good though. Good characters, good story, good level design, cool setting and atmosphere. Very stylish and polished for a 2003 adventure game. Easy to see why it became a cult classic.
PROPAGANDA
The game as a whole is basically like playing through the Child portion of OoT, anticipating the time you'll get to travel to the future, only the game ends just as that happens and baits you for a sequel instead.That's the best way I think to describe it. A genuine 10/10 that's blatantly not close to having been finished in spite of how good it otherwise is.
>>12718463>A genuine 10/10Lmao
It's a pretty good game. Of course Zelda fans hate it because it doesn't feed their autism enough.
What are some retro edutainment games you remember playing?
>>12715595Don't be so upsetty spaghetti friend.
>you can't beat the levels on the first visit!Okay? And why is.....that bad?>REEEEEEEEE-
>>12717871Also, you don't have to backtrack even once to beat the game without glitches. The 100% option is there for who want more out of the game. If you're all Tooie'd out by the end, just play something else.
>>12715783NTA but if you've eaten a sandwich with shit in it 15 years ago, you don't need to remember what it tastes like to know it was still a shit sandwich.
>>12718070What if you acquired a taste for shit over the years and didn't know it until you eat that shit sandwich again?
When is the bubble popping?I joined /vr/ 10 years ago and you guys told me to wait a few years
>>12714434Ayatollah bans Vidya worldwide
>>12714370This asian bitch again?
>>12714370Hey that's the chick who did the Demon's Souls promo
This is a piece of paper that doesn't even play video games, in a cheap plastic shell.
>>12714370Ironically the bubble has NOT popped on any Bubble Bobble games, a series famous for popping bubbles.
Am about to play this for the first time. What am I in for chaps?

>>12705294because *they* don’t want you to play this again and are trying to get youro pick up a book and read, and do something with your life
>>12716325It always amuses me when I see people talk about sitting on their ass and reading like they're accomplishing something when they're just wasting time and consuming media like anyone else.
>>12716302>get told decomps are cool>get told they'll facilitate things like mods and custom content>they just get used for shitposting and things like this
>>12716971I don't blame you for not knowing about the half dozen or so Discord only serious full scale overhaul mods that don't really advertise they exist

>>12717870found the faggot hall monitor who reports everyone
>>12710863The ever elusive, Brazil-exclusive, Mega Drive with Dreamcast-cabled, 4-button, pre-saturn pad with prototype Saturn D-Pad. This image is like a waifu fever dream, of that scamming orange lambo South American scumbag with that vaporware Sega all-in-one FPGA-console scam.
>>12717613I've been meaning to play that on hard mode but I keep putting it off because it is unironically filtering me st the beginning when escaping SA-X
>>12711516yes, people have gotten that lazy
The only true JRPG on the Nintendo 64 is Paper Mario and im fine with that its much better than Mario RPG Kino game from beginning to end
>>12713183>>12713212Maybe something like, "Still acting sour to hide that you like me?" or "Were you an asshole to all your past crushes too?". Think that gets the intended point across better without weeb words or whatever fragile male ego was suppose to convey.
>>12716145>acting like that choice was politically neutralDisingenuous faggot
>>12717949never got a chance to play any Mario RPG as a kid, I enjoyed all the music of course and the humor is cute too, but thats not enough for me to finish a game. I might check it out and enjoy it for a few hours but if there is no active challenge or friction happening I would rather be engaging my brain with a more challenging activity that feels gratifying after you do it.There are games meant for kids that are still challenging as balls. Fuck, even Kirby has a *little* bit of challenge unlike this game.
>>12718097>>12713886>>12713183It sounds fucking dumb, and I would've disliked it if you'd asked me about the "fragile male ego" line in a vacuum, but it sounds like a lot of fragile male egos were legitimately triggered over nothing here and I'm glad you crybaby faggots got your feelings hurt.
>>12713886>bipolarThat's what immediately came to mind as the most accurate approximation of tsundere, but the reason it wasn't used is pretty obvious. It would be insulting to real life people who are bipolar etc etc etc. Goddamn do I hate woke faggots.
What is it about SEGA, its hardware and its games that completely mindbreaks you, if you touched them as a kid?
>>12716260The sweet sibilant sounds of Sega, Sonic, Saturn resonated with neurons deep inside impressionable brains.
>>12716461>Nintendo 64 is to blame for all the muh gender craze.you are insane
>>12716260sega and nintendo were much better at building "brand cults" than microslop or especially sony.
>>12716260Troons see themselves as victims so they associate with losers and companies that lost. That simple. Sönig retardation is the prodrome to the more severe symptoms.
>>12716567sega was not intrinsic to games being good back then. sega was allowed to exist because the market was different. i always see sega fans acting like the scene would be different if sega was still around, or if sega came back they would make a bunch of epic sequels to games that *they* played as a kid (which demonstrates a fundemental misunderstanding of the company back then to begin with), and they totally wouldnt have the cancers of paid online or microtransactions or digital only or live service trash, when those are things necessary to survive in the current market

It's more of a playable anime than an actual game, and it excels at that.

How far thru the game is that secret forest part ?I despise turn based / rpg everything, but that OST is so ethereally beautiful, that I want to at least play thru that far, to appreciate that theme after going thru everything prior.
>>12718426Very early
