Dominic Anderson
You can walk inside of it without taking damage! If you hop a bit, you can hit it with the ring boomerang safely. bait
Isaac Scott
These threads are fun, thanks anons. You're alright. Makes a nice change from ecelebs.
Adam Sanders
Alright, let's get this shit started.
Jeremiah Turner
Oh boy. This oughtta be an adventure.
Cooper Foster
Easy as fuck
Leo Perry
Black and white with cellophane. Why did they even do this? What is the point?
Aiden Powell
And we got our Morph-Ball.
I only played Zero Mission, so I think I got this in the bag.
Mason Jackson
Good luck user. Get the long range gun ASAP.
Justin Bell
Cool, beat an underwater dragon and obtained wet suits.
Jaxson Brooks
good luck with beating level 01 the easiest of the whole.
Sebastian Wood
Blue spaceship uses it's long dong against the other army at 2:15 am
Lucas Bell
This is kind of a shot in the dark, but do you know how to beat the second boss? The little green things he shoots do shitloads of damage, but if I try to jump over them I end up entangled in his tentacles and take damage anyway. Also, the boss just creeps forward until he takes up the entire area, which obviously kills me since I have nowhere safe to go.
Aaron Cook
DOOR has been vanquished
Evan Roberts
Playing ZM doesn't really prepare you for the original. It's a whole different beast.
Owen Jackson
i only ever hear about super metroid. what's metroid like?
Jacob Johnson
Yeah, no shit.
Y CAN'T METROID DUCK?!
Eli Garcia
I got a game for children yesterday so I completed it in like 10 minutes, so it's time to roll for the SNES.
Not too keen on shooters but I'll give it a try, I'll start playing after I have dinner
Nathan Morgan
A battle for the ages, our ancestors have long awaited this battle for eons. Who will win, the tank or the whale.
Tyler Richardson
Damn. Only 84 credits left. Btw, for some reason you get to add credits with L or R when you start up the game. It's like wasting money, but not really.
Julian Davis
Stupid squid.
3 trys left.
Robert Rodriguez
It's Giovanni! Careful with the cherry cola.
Angel Gomez
I noticed that this climb could go on for ages. Where's the door?!
Daniel Mitchell
Did this thread idea come from /vr/?
Aiden Brooks
It was the tank Now to actually play the game
Aaron Ramirez
It's hard to describe exactly, you can tell if you've played them both. In Super you start out feeling average strength and gradually get more powerful as you move on. The combat is more fluid. In the original you feel weak and stranded, you're just trying to survive and get by for the first half of the game. By the end of the original you feel about as powerful as the start of Super. It has a weird balance between running from enemies being viable to needing to grind enemies to get your missiles etc back. Even with high health you can die in seconds if you're not as careful. It's way more atmospheric and the upgrades are more things like being able to shoot at a reasonable range.
Cooper Murphy
Get some graph paper, user, you're gonna need to draw a map
Colton Walker
Rolled Fatal Fury Special for SNES What would account for completion in a fighting game
David Gonzalez
World 3 of Cool World and I haven't died once. I'm going to make it.
Colton Reed
Why do I have a faint memory of this game being hard as all fuck?
Anyway here we fucking go
Owen Collins
This is normal, right?
Mason Jenkins
Here we go Man you need to start with Chill Penguin
Ryder Sanchez
All right, level 3. it's such an annoying game: the enemies are really small and is never clear when they hit you or you hit them. It's a guess who game, enemies spawns way too fast It's amazing how they fucked up on such a basic game. Now i'm also with bigger cheetah, so it's getting worse
Hudson Richardson
Beating the arcade mode or the story mode.
Carter Young
Why? Is the map that extensive?
As soon as I went in the room, the music suddenly changed. Is this a boss?
Help me, Sup Forums. I'm scared.
Charles Cox
Fuck. I need missiles.
Noah Adams
Fuck off back to /vg/
Nathan Gray
It's only going to get more spoopy
Anthony Bailey
I'm a Werewolf with blades for arms. Yep this is an nes game.
Benjamin Edwards
(dead)
Michael Russell
That was a close one. It was my last guy.
Man i don't have a clue since it's my first time playing any X-game.
It did workout fine.
Ryan Powell
Goddammit. Where are the missiles?!
Carson Edwards
What did I miss?
Joseph Parker
>actually getting mad at people playing video games you are the cancer killing Sup Forums
Joseph Roberts
Those disappearing block puzzles were tedious as fuck
Charles Robinson
Shouldn't be too bad as long as Ring Man and Dive Man don't fuck me up
Nicholas Nguyen
This le master troll who keeps shitposting on these threads.

Joshua Bell
Took me a few tries but I managed to beat the invaders. Let's move on to game boy. What am I in for?
Jason Hughes
Alright time for the boss fight
Alexander Cook
This goes to Norfair, right?
Better go back.
Evan Brown
Do you know what spam is? On topic threads that do not break the rules are not spam.
Connor Price
Don't be a pussy user!
Kayden Wood
World 4 introduces enemies that have projectiles. I think I'm done with this shit.
Luis Mitchell
Some frantic antics, that's for sure
Jaxon Murphy
DISCO TIME!
Angel Russell
in the first shaft you get to, drop down, you'll find missiles through the door at the bottom. Good luck, Metroid is one of the best games on the NES.
Aaron Green
You beat squid first? Nothing can stop you now user
Logan Smith
that was easy
Levi Sanchez
This is gonna be so bad
Samuel Jones
'S ok. I got them. Now which door should I pick?
Left's got two missile doors, while right's unexplored. I'll let you guys decide.
Wyatt Adams
Can I go back a console, finish it and reroll next one?
Adam Reyes
Go left, try out your missiles. You'll get lost quickly if you leave a load of unifinished paths at once.
Kayden Brooks
If you're past the NES, to get a reroll, you have to go down to the previous console and finish a new game
Jordan Ross
What game is this? Been looking for a long time. You just reminded me of it.
Alexander Stewart
Thanks, I'll try it on the scarier room here.
Elijah Brown
Oh that's cute. Now he's driving up the image count. You're really persistant, huh.
Jeremiah Ortiz
>MAME is the last console
I've never heard of this shit, does it even have games?
Adrian Garcia
cool. The snes game I got is fucking impossible.
Bentley Hill
Good luck. Sure looks spooky.
Cameron Wood
oh boy
Jayden Ward
It's an arcade game emulator.
Isaac Thompson
it's an arcade emulator
Kayden Roberts
Wait, I need 5 missiles for this?! I just wasted those!

You have already been moved once
Liam Stewart
Going back a console to reroll. This shouldn't be too hard.
Carson Fisher
I don't even, is this a game?
Jordan Hall
Some manner of platformer. Can't be too bad
Indeed.
Juan Cox
I did. My last guy made it.
This sounds like a drag.
Ian Phillips
Another death, another hour of gameplay reverted. And I literally died one tile above the door to an inn.
Gotta say though, this game has the best fucking game over music I've ever heard, at least.
Samuel King
Just Wily left >a specific game Hey look, this thread isn't about a specific game fuck off
Luis Richardson
>about a specific game Please just leave us to our vidya I don't get why you're so upset over this thread's existence.
Levi Gomez
Behold, for I have uncovered the powers of low G Man
Namely, the power to jump really high (seriously, he jumps like screen and a half in the air) erasing every enemy and projectile from the screen.
Also the power to press turbo A to make him jump really low all the time, so he looks like a little girl strolling through a field, makes it way more enjoyable.
Justin Jenkins
>trying to site the rules after having his posts deleted by mods, which means they've clearly seen his posts and disagree with him, along with literally everybody else
You haven't even been here since the /vg/ split you tard, this is not the sort of thread /vg/ was created to contain.
Josiah Reyes
So is this a grinding game or what?
Mason Morales
The game is god awful, good luck
Dominic Brooks
Underwhelming first phase
Sebastian Mitchell

Evan Morgan
I never realized how shitty most NES games were. This seems to be agood way to cure nostalgia goggles.
Michael Ward
Finally! The Long Beam!
Jaxon Morales
I JUST PAUSED THE GAME AND IT TURNS OUT I HAVE A WEAPON MENU
