So, I got ahold of Super Mario Advance

CuccoLady · 11-14-2009, 12:38 AM

I was browsing the old GBA game section at GameStop and found it. Super Mario Bros 2 is a helluva time killer. x{D

I love picking up GBA ports-- for some reason, picking up an actual cartridge of a game is much easier to do then to start playing something on VC. And it just makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside to find a game I haven't played in a really long time for an actual physical console.

Anyway just thought I'd share. I enjoy chucking turnips at things. :{D

SMA is fun. I got it around when it first came out.

One of the better Mario Advance games, though a bit weird with all the voice overs.

This SMB2 port practically gives you a ton of lives if you're playing it correctly. Not the same with the original; the original was unforgiving in terms of lives unless you took advantage of the slot machine.

Same goes with Hearts. I recall you had to take down a slew of enemies before being rewarded with this floating smidgen of health. With the port, just KO two enemies in a row and you get one. Which is all the time.

Perception of difficulty sure has changed, huh?

Kids have gotten lazier.

The voiceovers are excessive and the hearts come easily, but the game is still enjoyable. *shrug*

I need gamez to amuse me in my more boring classes.

I want SMA2. Mario World on the go? Hell yeah.

I like it better than the original, what with the auto-warp after you beat the game and the level telling you how many of those big coins you got.
