People are still impressed by it today because it was the first game ever to have a large open world to explore and also the first one with a save system. However, the gameplay doesn't hold up in modern times at all. It's kind of like how everyone considers Pong an incredible revolutionary thing since it was the first video game to have its own home console but in actuality it's just a really simplistic, really bad game.

oh yeah your right i never thought about the first save system. Yeah that is pretty revolutionary. But the open world is too open and kinda empty. I played it at my friends house when i was a child and NES was the **** and it didn't impress me, i just kept getting lost/ not knowing what the hell to do. And yeah "simplistic really bad game" im glad someone sees it like i do.
Another game i think sucks or didn't age well is Sonic 1. It was amazing for its time but i think its pretty bad compared to sonic 2, 3 and knuckles. Sonic is based on speed but when you think about it Sonic 1 is probably the slowest sonic game. Green Hill Zone was legit, all the other levels were really slow (Labyrinth zone anyone?) Also i thought the music sucked minus green hill zone and scrap brain zone (they must agree with me because those are the only two that made it into brawl lol)
ppl always freak out when i say sonic 1 is trash now, but its how i feel.
oh and this doesnt help

yes i had to "go to fast and die" 'thing happen to me before when i was a kid, i actually got a game over because of it... it was like first or second time i played the game i was only 6 and it scared the hell out of me haha
edit: the "illegal instruction" glitch on labyrinth either only happens on roms or certain versions of game because i tried that many times and it never crashed my system
edit 2: holy hell @ the final boss glitch. what if that happens on your last life then ur ****ed because of time limit what a terrible game
edit 3: the "sonic jumps too far" isnt a glitch thats the player being ******** and commiting suicide lol

What did you expect. It's the NES, the system with the processing power of a modern-day graphing calculator.
This is a problem with a lot of NES open world games. There are no instructions on how to do pretty much anything. It's the reason why platformers and other games with a linear level system were so common in those days.
I meant that Pong was a simplistic bad game, not Zelda.
No, but it was still an extremely significant event in the history of video games.

Kicked off/left the Brawl- team. Serious philosophical disagreement that made it either "kick out the whole team" or "leave". Fail.

It's a great mod (up yours), but a lot of the current team is stupid (most of the good people either disappeared without a trace or started sucking). And they all hate me.

Just because they don't believe your word has more value than anyone else's doesn't mean they hate you.

It's new for me.
Not entirely accurate... It's more like "you believe that not only should we not use stages as something involved in the balancing of the game, but you also believe that static stages are better", where I believe exactly the opposite. Best exemplified by you (and the rest of the backroom) wanting to freeze a stage that could not only pass as a starter if people had brains, but also requires a ridiculous amount of stage knowledge to play and therefore adds competitive depth, far more than the abominable frozen version, which really is just smashville 2.0. Don't understimate how big a deal this is. And will you stop following my posts? It's just a little bit creepy. I left the chat so I could get away from your stupidity, and I can't ignore you here because you're a ****ing mod.ur so silly bpcizzle

No, I literally cannot ignore you at all. It's how vBulletin works.

Brawl- is fun, but it's very different. Although I like some of the additions such as Fox being able to wavedash and Marth having like no landing lag.

You know, I think of all the things I've heard about any modification of the game, this one is one of the most redundant/stupid ones. "It's like a different game". Yes, and brawl is "like a different melee".
It was better than what lilseph said lmao
