I'll never understand how someone who advocates genocide doesn't deserve to be punched. If it causes more closet Nazis to come out, it saves the trouble of finding them.

Good luck with Battletoads if that's included. If not find an emulator and a rom, and then good luck with it.

Dammit Nintendo, make more of these just so I can find one that's not $150 on eBay.

That's a loving retarded take.

On the NES topic, I super want Nintendo Switch if nothing else for that Zelda game :swoon:

Drama does tend to stay in the same area and doesn't spill out most of the time. If you don't visit the forum in question it will only come up in passing.

Which is a good thing I think.

The gently caress is this poo poo? I just got Mega Man 1 and 5. :retrogames: toss in the rest of the series and that's six right there.

Also the best game in the original six is a tie between 3 and 4.

Edit: also how come nobody talks about Low G Man?

People that think the NES is a bad console are wrong and also probably young.

Mega Man 2 is one of the best games ever made.

Its a pretty easy timeline of events.

Mods started being giant pussies in d&d and banning people who werent communist sjws because of "mah feelings" even if they were posting coherent or even intelligent arguments.

The overly invasive mod controls were spilling into other forums.

Lowtax told em to chill the gently caress out.

Whole bunch of mods threw a bitch fit because lowtax hadnt been on the forums in like a week.

New mods get made.

Thats about it.



Old games are like old porn you used to jerk off to. Its never as good as you remember and after effort to get hold of it you kind of wish you didnt bother.

The lasers also came back in Mega Man X-5 with the big difference being that if you get close to the wall you stick to it making that level a special kind of nightmare.
