Lost levels is insanely hard. Thank god for save states.

I found the epic aircraft carrier level on Youtube. It has three parts to it: Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3.

 

[Elefterios]

i officially hate nintendo. we have to pay extra because its "imported"? man its a ****ing rom, and they didnt change a thing.

WRONG! They translated the menus, tutorial, and credits.

Sin and Punishment. Now that is one heck of a game. I nearly pissed myself on the aircraft carrier level.

I refuse to buy any VC games before Majora's Mask is re-released. -comonyoshi 12/22/06

No!

Edit: Allowing you to switch the shooting trigger to the right side would help a lot. Alas.

 

[Chill]

I forgot all about the VC after buying a few games. Games I played before I didn't feel the urge to play again (Super Mario World) and games I had never played before didn't hold up very well (Link to the Past).

I think I'll wait for the orginal games to come out or I'll just browse the selection to see if anything interesting has been put up since the last time I checked.

So, Sin and Punishment is a good buy? I mean 12 bucks is steep for a N64 game. If I buy it, I'm expecting alot of replay value.

I haven't beaten it yet, but I did play the aircraft carrier level, which was freakin awesome. I think it was worth the 12 bucks, because you can always pick up and play whatever level/chapter you want (after you beat the game)...

I'm so stuck on lost levels. You know 2-2 when your about half way through and you go over a normal pipe, then theres a pipe in the air, and an invisible block you can find in between them? well i can get on top of the block but cant reach the elevated pipe, any tips?

I got up there fine with Luigi but I don't know about Mario.

 

[-Wolfy-]

a friend just confirmed it is only possible with luigi to progress, sans warp zone... bummer. my dreams are officially shattered

So the game is like impossible with Mario?

 

[-Wolfy-]

I guess unless you use the warp zone at 1-2

 

[Sensai]

Your friend is wrong.

Jeah..I caved and bought it. The girlfriend came over and at, get this, 11 at night she's like 'I really wanna play old school Mario!' Alright...so, I figured since I'm gonna spend some money, why not get the one I've (probably) never played before.

ANYWAYS, 2-2: It's not impossible. You hit that first block, and once you get on top of it, diagonally upwardly left (grammar!) is another hidden block.

Bazing! We're on 3-1 or so now. Good luck, guys!

 

[-Wolfy-]

Dang, good find. It would have been a pretty funny joke if they made it impossible to reach world 9 with Mario.Thank your girlfriend for her convenient desire to play old-school Mario for me would ya? Sounds like a keeper.

 

[Doggalina]

Gah, I hate world 3. First it's a relatively easy level (that you should EASILY finish with Fire), then it's a water level (ew). And then there's the disgusting third level. Oh, and the castle's a puzzle.

I'm using Luigi; I usually run through Mario levels anyway, so his low traction doesn't hurt me.

 

[-Wolfy-]

This is definitely alot harder than the first game though, they weren't lying. I remember when I had a little panic attack when blooper was flying through the air in 1-3 and I'm like, wait a sec...

 

[Sensai]

This game is DEFINITELY harder then the original game. I'm on the 4-s and they're just silly....

And I downloaded Sin and Punishment!

[Edit:]

Also:

Neo Geo games TOMORROW.

[Problem2]

I just bought the game tonight and I decided to put it down at World 5. World 4 was a horrible pain, and World 5 is just as bad. I've played this before so all the level look familiar, but it's still hard.

Yeah it isn't impossible cause I just went back and played through with Mario since Luigi slides too much.

 

[Zink]

How's Sin and Punishment?

 

[Doggalina]

How's Sin and Punishment?

Amazing. Go buy it.

 

[Volrec]

I want a VC game

 

[Sensai]

Get Lost Levels...I just beat it today after pretty much 4 days of straight playing it.

 

[Sandy]

i just wasted spent $12 on Sin & Punishment. What a terrible game..

 

[commonyoshi]

No, you're a terrible game.

Hmm. After playing this for a good ten hours, I got bored of it. It's definitely not as good as Star Fox in the long run. But still... aircraft carrier level.

 

[PicoZX]

Wish I got a free Wii.

 

[NintendoWarrior]

I hope we get River City Ransom soon.

 

[Relean]

I'm still waiting for the original Smash Bros...

Maybe, just maybe, since they broke our hearts with the delay, they'll release it on Monday for the VC.

 

[greenblob]

I'm interested about this "Sin and Punishment." What's it about? I heard that it's multiplayer--what's that like? I've read the IGN and Gamespot reviews, but none of them were very clear on either subject.

 

[slick128]

Here's hoping to Kirby Super Star release!

 

[SolidCrispy]

Is Ninja Gaiden 2 any good? I've never tried the series before.

 

[Sensai]

Ninja Gaiden 1 is hard as ****...and I hear NG2 is more of the same. I enjoy it...but then again, I liked Kid Icarus for its difficulty.

And I enjoy Sin and Punishment. The trick is to play two players.

 

[slick128]

Since we have to wait for Brawl why not have a Virtual Console release of the original Smash Bros. on Dec. 3rd.

The game is amazing in single player. It's pure joy.

Multiplayer's lame; one person moves, rolls, and jumps while the other aims, shoots, and slashes.

 

[BETA]

Beaten Lost Levels twice with Mario. Now I just need to beat it six more times to get to world A... argh!!! I love this game though!

First TGCD game got released today. Haven't played it, but supposedly it's one of the best shoot-em-ups of all time.

 

[greenblob]

Hm... Sin and Punishment looks like a game that could work very well with the Wiimote...

I think I'm going to hold out until next week for my VC purchase.

 

[Brawlmatt202]

So... Seeing that "Sin and Punishment" game, and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels on the Wii's VC give me hope of other Japan exclusive titles to be released, like, oh say, Mother!

 

[Mr.GAW]

Or FE games!

 

[Brawlmatt202]

Or FE games!

I was going to say that next, but then I thought of the Fire Emblem DS game, that's going to be a remake of the first FE game.
