Instead of buying that bundle I downloaded a SNES emulator and a Megaman X "ROM." The nostalgia hits me like train... I was 4 years old when I last played it

Yeah I have Cave Story. It's pretty good, it takes a while to get hard though. The game gives you a bit too much invincibility after getting hit and your health bar is huge. After you get the jetpack thingy the game gets really fun. Whooaaa they added some cool stuff in Cave Story+. They expanded the jetpack part of the game!

2D side scrollers are really fun with the arcade stick. In MMX I can do dash->jumps while always shooting or charging up because my fingers are all on the buttons. I would kill for X to be a Melee character :(

Super Meatboy looks fun, you can tell the creators are big fans of IWBTG (another great platformer). You can unlock a bunch of different characters that have different movement mechanics, too.

Edit: ok I bought the bundle

Right after I finish my finals, I'm going to play cavestory+ and watch spirited away. The worst game there is Nightsky HD and...it's kind of mediocre. I've heard nice things about all the other games though. It
s worth it even if you were buying the bundle for just Cavestory, BiT. Trip Runner, and Super Meat Boy.

Cave Story is fun. I wasn't crazy about it when I first played through it (although I still enjoyed it), but I became a considerably bigger fan after doing all of the hidden stuff.

I had a similar experience. I was like *yawn* until Final Cave and Running Hell. The Cave Story+ trailer showed new stuff that looked as exciting as that. The whole game should be like that!

Getting the jetpack is like MMX after you unlock the dash, the game gets twice as fast.

Oh yeah, Dave ***** and handed me Settlers of Catan for the Melee community. So we definitely have to play it when Rei comes back from palmdale (or if we have a smashfest somewhere else during winterbreak).

Important tournament *****



Now that I have your attention

Tournament this weekend, who wants to go???!!!!!!! There are two and I'm deciding which to go to. They're both gonna have vegas melee players lol

1. Saturday, Northridge
Pros
Closer
Johnny is going
Cons
Venue fee is 5 bucks more (3 bucks more if you pre-reg)

2. Sunday, Festizzios
Pros
Possibly higher attendance due to it being familiar to a lot of players
kevin is going
cons
farther than northridge

So sunday tourney or sat tourney? I'm trying to decide, so whoever wants to go should post their opinion.

I don't know when we smash. Stab (Stabbedbyanipple) usually makes it all happen so PM him if you want to play.
I have been watching a lot of Monk. Still amazing.
