The most foolish are the ones who are afraid to admit their foolishness.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Sometimes its ok to look like a fool. I think i might rent this game sometime if it comes with bongos or something. Maybe one of my friends already has it... I don't have the cash for that right now though.

I think someone said that the symbols on the screen are off-beat with the song. If you hit it to the beats, you'll just get an OK.

Wouldn't you find it weird if you saw a 21-one-year-old banging some Bongos in a store while kids are waiting in line for him?

***CaptHayfever*** · 10-12-2004, 11:34 AM

I find it weird whenever there's a line at the game display at all. Besides, those things have time limits; the kids will get their turn soon enough.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Koga · 10-12-2004, 01:13 PM

They don't have time-limits over here. They just have a Gameucbe and a tv with a game in it behind glass, and the controller on some sort of extension. You could play all day if you want.

I remember back in high school I used to go to the toy stores when I had an hour off, and there was always the same guy playing Mortal Kombat there.

Chunky Kong12345 · 10-12-2004, 04:12 PM

I bet the store would get complaints if you played all day though.

Viceroy Nute Gunray · 10-12-2004, 04:29 PM

There's no limits here, at least not where I go to. And you can't really enjoy the game at it's fullest if you play it at the store on the demo screens.

Koga · 10-12-2004, 05:59 PM

Exactly.

I would definitely not bang the Bongos like a madman when everbody can see you do it.

Falco53 · 10-12-2004, 06:59 PM

^ Chicken. I'm a geek and I'm proud of it.

***CaptHayfever*** · 10-12-2004, 07:02 PM

Ok, but why couldn't you just rent it then?

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Chunky Kong12345 · 10-12-2004, 07:07 PM

Rentals don't come with bongos.

Viceroy Nute Gunray · 10-12-2004, 09:08 PM

That's retarded. What's the point of putting it out for rental then?

PenguinMan · 10-12-2004, 09:21 PM

You can play it with a normal controller, but yeah, it just isn't the same.

I had a limit once. It was in Toys 'r' Us 2 months before the Gamecube was released in Europe (God I'll cherish that day). I was playing Luigi's Mansion but it stopped. Yeah, it was a demo which may not be what you're talking about but oh well.

Anyway, I should bring forward my question. How do you get hold of extra pairs of Bongos for multiplayer games?

Most gaming stores should have the bongo controllers for sale separately. I got mine at EB.

**NintendoNut** · 10-17-2004, 03:39 AM

I played it yesterday. My mum said it was a 5 minute wonder...now I hate her cos she's kinda brought me into a debate with myself over whether to get it or not.

**Wyborn** · 10-19-2004, 09:44 PM

Five minutes with the demo today and me and my brother bought it.

To anyone who's wondering....

^ It's just that good. I was a serious skeptic until I played it. I still haven't bought due to lack of time.
