I was so excited to play Mario is missing and then it turned into an education game and I got very upset as a child that I wasted my one game rental for the week on that nonsense.

I played it and Mario's Time Machine at a friend's house during a sleepover and it was so crazy to me that there was a game where you played as Luigi and then I made a bunch of pictures on some Crayola game for Windows 95 that were just Luigi and I named them all "Mario is Missing" with ascending numbers. Some of the Luigis were blue because of the one Nintendo Power issue where Mario was blue. Bring back Blue Mario (or "Blario")

Number one Nintendo didn't make the game so it doesn't count. Number two even if they did Luigi didn't let anyone down the game makers let Luigi down

you insufferable ingrate, im in first grade, i love luigi, im the taller little brother who loves the color green, i go into the video game store and theres a game with luigi on the box , this game is called MARIO IS MISSING, implying not only that luigi will be taking center stage but that he will be doing so in a series of mario brothers esque capers. not only does this not end up being the case but as youve said its education and sucks mega rear end and is encarta bullshit. but you say 1st grade me should have said "Luigi didn't let me down - I should have faith - Nintendo didn't make this game it was a third party publisher." which is really a microcosm of the difficulties i have talking with all of you

edit: I broke my loving arm and it was the one game i got to pick

It sounds like we got beef, Dicky. I guess I'll just have to see you in the ring, where we can settle this like men.

i respect and like you so much that im ignoring your beef and just totally shrugging off your bad vibes because i cant possibly feud you until the stakes are at their absolute max, with title gold on the line. so it really hurts me to do this but im telling my True Ignore app that you are persona non grata, and i encourage you to get some distance

I'm pretty sure I rented MARIO IS MISSING at least 3 times as a child, mostly because 7 year old me could not comprehend how a game using Super Mario World assets could be so bad. I figured if I got far enough in it would eventually become good.

I thought the same thing for Superman 64. I was like there is no way a game where you get to be Superman could be bad!

Superman 64 was the first time I went on the internet to check what other people thought about a game because I wasn't sure a game could possibly be that bad.

So I read the reviews for it and was like there is no way it's that bad. I had birthday money so I bought the game and I didn't really get to do that often as a kid. I think it was the first purchase I ever regretted

I distinctly remember as a child almost buying Superman 64 but instead buying Harvest Moon 64 instead because I had used to rent the SNES version a lot

Ouch, I only rented that garbage. I definitely have some birthday money purchased games that could have been spent better as a kid but nothing that bad. Krusty's Super Fun House is probably my worst purchase but it's still a game that is playable.

My favorite Superman 64 memory is how the UK magazine N64 (later NGC) had a truly incredible running gag for months where they'd have an impossible-to-solve puzzle hosted by Lex Luthor called "SOLVE MY MAZE", a line I still quote.

I'm glad I was too young for those Mario edutainment games because I grew up with the Windows 95 Carmen Sandiego games and those were great.
