/vr/ - Retro Games

Fuck it, I'll bite the bait.
>Fuck Yoshi because I don't like him
Yoshi added cool variety, furthered by the color variants with different abilities. Certain enemies can be more easily defeated and with yoshi, but he also limits your flight and climbing, so the player has to decide whether or not it's worth it to leave him behind. Yoshi was a great mechanic.
>No Humor
If you didn't find the amazing reward for finishing the special levels humorous, you're dead on the inside. What about enemies like the worm that gets pissed off when you stomp on it? What about the unpredictable football players that throw different sports equipment at you, or just do fucking jumping jax for some reason, or split into multiples? Those guys were fucking awesome and damn funny.
>Themed worlds "suck" with no love put into it.
Ghost houses beg to differ. Also, water levels had fun new shit to do, like use dolphins as platforms. The forest levels were awesome too, the trees in the foreground were a neat touch at the time. All of the themes had unique enemies to them too.
>SMW is too easy
Yea, if you just do a straight run. If you actually do the special stages or try to get to some of the tricky-to-get-to hidden stages, the challenges is pretty good.
>No minigames or item inventory
Wrong. SMW had bonus games that you could play if you collect enough bonus stars or found a secret pipe. Item inventory isn't needed since you can keep a powerup in reserve. Since you can replay any level in SMW, you can quickly find a powerup and yoshi you want and exit the level. How are the overworld maps not fun? It's the same shit but all connected in one giant hub world instead of just a straight shot.
>Gameplay is similar but smb3 has better powerups
Wrong again. Sure, SMB3 has more variety of powerups, but SMW has much more fleshed out powerups. You can't possibly tell me flying a tanooki suit is as fun as the cape or as well controlled. Dat ground slam.
>Fuck you
Back to /v/ with that attitude, Donte.
