The power adapting thing is really mind blowing when you think about how long ago that game came out and what system it was on.

Yeah, I got Kirby's Adventure the day it came to the VC here. It's one of my favorite games EVER.

Anyone that doesn't buy Magician Lord is a communist.

Finally got around to getting Super Mario Bros. 2 (Japan). It's like playing a brand new Mario game since I've only briefly played Lost Levels and the SMB2 rom.

If you can make that jump in world 2-2, then buy yourself a box of chocolates, because you've earned them, buddy.

I've NEVER been able to make that jump. I remember getting stuck there on the All-Stars version too.

There was a rumor going around that they included it with The Simpsons Game. From my experience, The Simpsons Game is decent but not worth the purchase. If they would've included the Arcade game I would've been all over that. I just watched a video from my 10th birthday party, and we're all at Celebration Station (R.I.P.) crowding around The Simpsons Arcade. Good freakin' times.

I just bought a points card. Although....I'm tempted, and at the same time, I don't know if I can own Super Mario 3 anymore

Yes you can.

It's only $5, plus you get to play it with a wireless controller, and in component output. Besides, you can't own Super Mario Bros. 3 enough.

I'm convinced that the ice world music (World 6) is the most unintentionally scary 8-bit song ever.

After throughly playing the original for the first time in a couple of years, I've realized what a piece of crap the GBA version really is. The original is superior in every way. Sure, the GBA version is portable, and the graphics are "better", but they just made too many changes.

Well, the changes aren't necessarily "bad", I'm just a stuck-up elitist that won't have anything other than the original. It was a passable remake, but a lame port. The gameplay and graphics are the same as the All-Stars version, but there were a ton of small, pointless changes that turned me off, for example they moved a couple of blocks and changed a few sprites for no real reason at all. It feels like a crappy rom hack to be honest. Plus the e-Reader thing was a straight up embarrassment. They should've included those extra levels in the game to begin with. They didn't even release the rest of the cards. It's always felt incomplete to me for that reason. I would've preferred a straight port of the All-Stars version. The Mario Advance games were a mess, just for all the extra shit they tried to tack on.

My main beef with the GBA game was that it felt too easy. I enjoyed it enough but for some reason I lost my desire to play it.
I've been playing the hell out of the NES/Virtual Console game as of late. I forgot how HARD the 8th world is.
I also discovered that you can use the frog suit for the second level in World 8 (red water ship) and swim under the ship without having to worry about keeping a certain amount of distance from the bottom. That frog suit kicks ass.

I GOT PASSED THE JUMP IN WORLD 2-2 (Jap Mario 2). Friggin' difficult to get that other block that you need to use.
