Why was Super Mario Bros panned in Europe?
Nintendo was not a publisher in Europe at the time so they hadn't paid reviewers yet
>>12233213do NOT research this
>>12233210because it was a simple Hüpf und Kletterspiel game
>>12233210If that's 57 what did they consider 80/90
>>12233210what the fuck? OP I don't read mien kamph I don't know what they're saying.
>>12233210>Super Mario Bros, a very simple action game, stands out from the crowd thanks to three elements: its simplicity, the richness of the world in which it is explored, and the quality of its production.thats not so bad
>>12233242Elite Plus got a 94
>Super Mario Bros. is a really simple platformer that's somehow interesting thanks to its many different characters. As simple as the gameplay is, the game can be incredibly fun. Perhaps precisely because it's so uncomplicated. Anyone who likes these kinds of games can buy it without hesitation. Lots of fun is guaranteed!sounds good to me wheres the "panning"?
>>12233210I didn't know nazis got Mario two years after everyone else
>>12233259>>12233270it's damning with faint praise
>>12233306>Lots of fun is guaranteed!it's good>b-but the number says fifty sev-it's good
>>12233242Zniggy 2 for the Speccy
>>12233210It wasn't made there.That's all it takes.
>>12233210Ratings work different in Germany, scoring goes from 0-60.I believe it was introduced by Hitler or something, together with bratwurst and sauerkraut
>>12233412Boomers had the Soviet judge at the Olympics jokeMillenials have the Euro gaming mag critic
It was no Great Giana Sisters. Remember that GGS came out before SMB in Europe.
>>12233464vs SMB predates Giana Sisters in Europe
>>12233210Because it's shit.
>>12233210How dare they!As punishment for their foolish ways they will be cursed with the brown of the plumber's pipeTHE BROWN OF PEOPLE!
>>12233521But anon Mario isn't bro-...
I just want people to stop liking Nintendo
I just want people to keep liking Nintendo
Europoors thought Super Mario Bros was a rip off of the Great Giana Sisters
>>12233702>it's a me! brownio!
>>12233210I'll pan you in a minute
>>12233270How could SMB's gameplay be considered 'simple' in 1985?
>>12233883We had actual games in Europe at the time
>>12233883The French already played and made tons of RPGs on Atari ST and Amstrad CPC.
>>12233883*1987
>>12233883>>12233916Also nintendo literally made games for kids. PC-88 games were a lot more complex.
>>12233306>They're not reviewing the game as if it were a vision of Christ so they're clearly panning itEat a bullet, you fucking retard.
>>12233889OI DAS RITE M8 NUTTIN COMPARED TO DA RIVETING GAMEPLAY OF ZIP ZAP THE MULTI MILLION SELLING HIT ON ME SPECCY IT BLEW MARRY-O OUTTA DA THAMES
>>12233926now post that without crying fatass
>OI DAS RITE M8 NUTTIN' COMPARED TO DA RIVETIN' GAMEPLAY OF ZIP ZAP THE MULTI MILLION SELLIN' HIT ON ME SPECCY IT BLEW MARRY-O OUTTA DA THAMES
>>12233920>PC-88 gamesmostly rpg's and porn vn games fuck off
>>12233883It's an actual game instead of an autism simulator.
>>12233889Looks like the euro-trash forgot where Wizardry and Ultima were made.
>>12234002Wrong.
>>12234034American kids didn't have enough brain cells to play computer games.
>>12234018And yet bingtendo fans are the most autistic in the gaming industry.
>>12234046I'm right fuck you
>>12233210Because the PAL market was still being dominated by old microcomputers, and bongtards/bongtard-adjacents were so used to getting pirated speccy/dorry games for a few pence behind the tackle shop that, when the NES arrived and the software prices were shown, every lime, rick, and hortense swore off of the brand for good.The Mega Drive avoided this issue by having footy and being several pounds lighter than the Noncetendo stuff, hence Sega's reign over Europe.
>>12233265Lol that's pretty german
>>12234048Computer adoption rates were consistently 2x in the US vs what they were in Europe up until the 2000s.
>>12233930KEK
>>12234262>2xi love this board. it's where schizophrenia and compulsive lying joins forces>>12233930there's that resident schizophrenic! how's the decade long spamming going, austerspammer? now well? that's not good
>>12234551Look it up yourself. PC adoption rates were skyhigh in the US compared to yurop.
>>12234559>PC>this is the only computeryou're immensley fucking retarded. tell us all about how the snes works!
>>12234565PC is any personal computer in this case. Maybe you should learn what words mean you mudblood ESL
>>12234569>2x !>makes wild claim>gets murderedhow's the losing going, loser?
>>12233210>posts two positive reviews>panned
>>12233210use of the term "super" was seen as a reference to nazi era eugenics
>tries to make jumps in World 8>presses button a frame too late>Game Over>"DAS WAR EIN BEFEHL! DER MARIO-SPRUNG WAR EIN BEFEHL!">5/10
>>12233239/threäd
>>12234551OI M8 WHO YOU CALLIN SCHIZO CUM ON DOWN TO DA ALLEY BEHIND DA CROWN AN CROONER IN DORCHESTA AT A QUARTA PAST 7 AND CALL ME SCHIZO AGAIN I'LL CARVE YEH UP LIKE ME NAN'S SUNDAY ROAST
>>12233210They were too busy with zniggy.
>>12233210They didn’t getted the Eurosnoy mind virus yet
>>12233210Because it released 2 years later in Europe than anywhere else in the world, so the critics were comparing it to games that were 2 years newer. They're not wrong for doing that, either. The point of reviews is to help people decide which new releases are worth buying, and when a 1985 game is a new release in 1987 alongside other actual 1987 releases it will look a lot less worthwhile.
>>12233210are amerimutts actually entertained by holding right and pressing jump?
>>1223321075 used to be a good score before retards took over everything and now 7/10 means 'shit' instead of 'really good but wanting'.
>>12233210Seems like they liked it
>>12234648>Mario was final product of Mussolini's eugenics experimentsbased!
>OI M8 WHO YOU CALLIN' SCHIZO CUM ON DOWN TO DA ALLEY BEHIND DA CROWN AN CROONER IN DORCHESTA AT A QUARTA PAST 7 AN' CALL ME SCHIZO AGAIN I'LL CARVE YEH UP LIKE ME WARBOSS'S SUNDAY ROAST
>SPRINGENMANN MARIO HÜPFEN UND KLETTERN JA VIELE ARTEN VON FIGUREN UND VIEL SPAẞ HOLERÖ
>>12233883Because it released 2 years later (1987) in Europe. Many more complex games existed by then, especially for home computers which were far more popular in Europe at the time.
>>12233210>Jeu d’action fort simple, Super Mario Bros se distingue du lot grâce à trois éléments la simplicité, la richesse de l'univers dans lequel on évolue et la qualité de réalisation Contrairement à beaucoup, ce jeu est trèsfacile à utiliser car le nombre d’actions est limité au strict nécessaire. Outre les dépla cements vers la droite et la gauche, le joueur ne peut que sauter. Pour se débarrasser de ses ennemis on bondit et les voici écrasés >Pour obtenir des points de Bonus, de l'argent ou bien des éléments nécessaires à la réussite du jeu, on saute et on tapStfe la tête les briques renfermant telle ou merveille. Et c'est là que réside le secret de ce jeu : simple d’apparence, il regorge de trucs divers. Ainsi, pour sauter plus haut, on peut récupérer une sorte de champignon afin de grandir. >Dernier point : la réalisation. Animation précise et douce, graphismes soignés et bande sonore de qualité répondent à l'appel.
>>12235658
>>12235658>>12235661It's refreshing to see a review treat SMB just like any other game. Like I said, Nintendo had no status in 1987 in Europe.
And here's the other review from OP. The low score is because it ranked only 4 in Gameplay due to how simple and arcade like it was, but the text remarks that's one of its strengths since it's instantly easy to understand and gets addicting fast.
>>12235702it's because it's shit
