I'm interested in playing the Galaxy ones but I tried them on the Wii U and they were too hard for me. Kept running out of lives and having to start worlds over until I gave up.

re slog: i felt exactly the same way on the first playthrough, and to some extent the second, but every time i play it i love it more. now i’m somewhere in the teens and i completely lose myself in it. easily the highest replay value of any game i’ve played in years.
re moon currency: utterly otm. it doesn’t feel much like an achievement when you kick a rock MOON, headbutt a seed MOON, walk past a doorway MOON, walk two feet for no reason MOON, blink MOON, and then the difference between 673 moons and 687 moons is essentially negligible.

I may be overrating 64 tbh
idk, I just looked through the list of levels and had some fond memories but also memories of frustration. Which is the hardest Mario, btw? My vote is easily SMW2, the normal game was hard enough, getting 100 on every level to unlock the bonus stages was very difficult, and then, the bonus stages themselves? HA impossible

The hardest levels I can think of on a Mario game (Lost Levels aside) are the airship in SMB3 world 8 (I'd always P-wing it), Tubular in SMW, the Poochie bonus stage in SMW2, and I have a vague memory of something in Galaxy involving Luigi and a huge airship as being insanely difficult, Galaxy was hard, I remember

the old 2d marios are definitely the hardest. 64 probably the hardest 3d one in the normal levels, the postgame challenge levels in the newer ones are harder though

no way, the amount of effort they went into designing sheer joy of moving and inhabiting environments in 64 is still stunning

cool video about a SM64 speedrunning glitch that shaves a full minute off your time (skipping the carpet in Rainbow Ride), with the caveat that it's nearly impossible to do. "nearly" being the key word here. the mechanics of this are insane

you can skip to 5:20 if you just wanna see it done

This game is nice but people were talking about it in the same ... sentence ... as Zelda and I think that's misleading. Planning to sue.
― lukas, Thursday, 16 April 2020 17:02 (four years ago) link
i enjoyed it more than zelda but its not particularly comparable in any way other than being a nintendo switch game?
― ciderpress, Thursday, 16 April 2020 17:57 (four years ago) link
Well it was sort of "these are the two essential games", I interpreted this in a way that was harmful to me and my enjoyment of Odyssey, the end
― lukas, Thursday, 16 April 2020 18:04 (four years ago) link
yeah, i know what you mean. they are often compared to each other in terms of just overall quality/fun, and although i like odyssey a lot it's not on the same level as BotW

100% agreed, but if you own a Switch this should be the second game you buy for sure
― Nhex, Thursday, 16 April 2020 18:08 (four years ago) link
there's enough good switch games now that i wouldn't try to call anything an essential. two years ago it would have been more accurate
― ciderpress, Thursday, 16 April 2020 18:09 (four years ago) link
like animal crossing and smash are gonna be easily more essential than both of those for various sects of people
― ciderpress, Thursday, 16 April 2020 18:10 (four years ago) link
ok, Smash I'll give because it is like the ur-version of all Smashes combinedAnimal Crossing seems pretty incremental compared to older versions, but i haven't looked too deep into the new version
― Nhex, Thursday, 16 April 2020 18:24 (four years ago) link
see, i don't know about that! that might be true for some people, but i don't think true for most people

for real, that is a very good and compelling point! haha. i mean, that's why it was the second game i bought! i knew i was going to play it, i just had to go ahead and knock it out.

The RC car operator is the only human Mario can capture in Super Mario Odyssey. Normally, he is only seen from behind during this. However, by precisely positioning Mario beforehand, there are a few frames where is possible to get a closer look at the man's face while captured. pic.twitter.com/Dz6enn1o6U— Supper Mario Broth (@MarioBrothBlog) May 29, 2020
