super gameboy ftw

Gameboy advance is by far my favorite portable system of all time. I even modded my original one to install a backlight with a dimmer switch and goddamn I loved that thing.

Ghost Leviathan: Mar 2, 2017; Exploration is ill-advised.

The SNES version of Taz-Mania is a weird kinda cheap pretty bad pseudo-3D game where you run down an endless highway eating birds and it's weirdly hypnotic

You have a tiny chance of encountering the Road Runner and eating him for a ton of points

i "played" a lot of this "game"

oh my god man, my brother and I were in a CompUSA in the 90s--I wanted to buy The Depths of Doom Trilogy, as we only had the shareware version of Doom 1 like everybody else I knew, our Doom 2 copy was a lovely :filez:

copy from one of my dad's friends that was completely unreliable to install so we wanted a real version for the longest time, and the Master Levels was just more Doom

my brother, however, really wanted Virtual Springfield, which was puzzling because we were both deep into games at the time

my dad has us flip a coin, my brother calls heads, and wins

still holding on to that gamer grudge to this day

Okay. Be careful though, keep slinging around debate bro terms like this and you will start sounding like a youtuber essay guy yourself.

there definitely a few ways to force a trigger i could see a kid stumbling into, mostly stuff like dashing around everywhere from a reset and entering the right transition in time

Did you have someone tell you how to find it because iirc it was nearly impossible to get to unless you had a guide of some sort.

The one I heard when I was a young�un was that the kid died so they hid it out of respect (no that doesn�t make sense). Iirc what really happened was the kid won a Nintendo Power contest to be in another game but they ran out of development time (can�t remember which game) and they stuck him in Link to the Past

Eh, I was close:

Best I remember was I was dashing around near the castle and tripping a bomb that was in a bush I think? I fell into the hole where your uncle gets owned at the start.

Ever since then I'd always anticipate seeing it every time I fell down that hole. But I never did. Thus my once joyous expression has turned desolate, and my heart, so wretched

RIP Link�s pudgy mustachioed uncle who got killed by rats(?) despite the fact that he had a goddamned sword. Dude made it like 10 feet into the easiest dungeon in the game

Also lol that whatever mortally wounded him just left him there to expire instead of just eating him or w/e. Just couldn�t be bothered

I have a very vivid memory of renting Pokemon Stadium, getting extremely sick like the next day, and when I went to the thing that lets you play the gameboy game on the TV screen, I violently poo poo myself

Kinda funny that the Zelda timeline might actually make sense considering there are literal history altering macguffins involved even before there was actual time travel and LttP is probably not the only one of the games that never actually happened
