/vr/ - Retro Games

Mario doesn't know what the fuck he's doing, thats why.

The dudes a professional plumber,racer,detective,golfer, WHO knows what else.

He just applies for jobs and hopes he gets it.
Dude is shit tier.

>>1755928
I feel like there must be some sort of conspiracy in his hiring, I mean he IS Italian, maybe he's getting some help from The Family...

Think about it, if he fixes the fights from the beginning then he can help rake in the cash for the people who got him that job.

>>1755939
I'm now picturing luigi as Fredo.

>>1755945
I wonder if they're all in on this, or if any of the Mario characters are oblivious?

Luigi: we gotta save your dame again, Bowser "captured" her again, how long you gonna let this sham play out? Ain't it enough you saved her once before?

Mario: *lights up a cigarette* Just shut up and start the car.

Luigi: Alright, alright, let's get movin'

Mario: Let's a go

>>1755951
>>1755945

I'd watch this flash movie.
Heck, there probably is a mafia related one already.

You're complaining about ref Mario? What about the Wii ref who allows magic, gloves on sticks and lets you fight a fucking gorilla? Or the SNES ref who allows kicks and staves and toxic goobers?

Ref Mario is downright strict by comparison.

>>1755976
By then the referees were so bought out by the opposition that the only thing they DIDN'T allow was guns (they found the fights ended too quickly when they did)

>>1755963
This.

>>1755914

>I want to know what kind of drugs Mario is on

Mushrooms, obviously.

>>1756042
And those pills he prescribed for himself in Dr. Mario...

He's obviously being paid off. Notice how he counts faster for Mac, doesn't stop when he tries to get up (which he does for everyone else), and some fighters can't lose by decision.

>>1756116
Also the fucking decision system in Punch-Out is fucking crazy. Oh yeah I put him on the mat five times and he never even touched me but I didn't score enough points so I lose.

Who the fuck are these judges?

>>1756131
Glass Jose, Glass John, and either ozzy ozbourne /glass Joe(after you fight him).

Yeah, if you hit the amt you should lose the point, but those judges seem to always turn a blind eye. I wouldn't be surprised if They were all in the Mob's pocket, and Mario was the ring leader.

>>1755914
It is a video game.
Video games don't have to be realistic.
When making a video game, you can let your imagination go wild and do anything you want.

>>1756172
Didn't know you posted on /vr/ molyneux.

>>1756172
>It is a video game.
>Implying video games aren't real
>Implying this game didn't make me a boxer by playing it

>>1756172
You must be real fun at parties.

Who am I kidding? No one invites you to parties.

>>1756195
Why would he want to go to parties? Most parties don't have video games...

>>1756195
>>1756202
>on 4chan
>talking about going to parties
what the fuck are you even doing?

>>1756195
>video games are different from the real world
>wow you must be fun at parties

What the flying shit is wrong with you? How do you even make such a retarded as fuck connection as that?

great tiger is fucking easy, i don't know why you're complaining.

>>1756172

Shhh, let the lil' letsplayer project himself

>>1756423
>absolutely nothing relating to Let's Plays
>accusing them of projecting

Irony.

>>1755939
>I feel like there must be some sort of conspiracy in his hiring, I mean he IS Italian, maybe he's getting some help from The Family...

Maybe he goes to the same temp agency as Barbie.

>>1756172
>>1756285
>>1756423

wow

>>1756669
Welcome, my friend, to 4chan, where you can't make jokes, because no one knows what context is and fun is not allowed

>>1756116
To be fair Mac can get up in one second flat if you mash well, 3 if you don't. Also every boxer can lose by decision, at least the end ones can. The only way I can beat Super Macho Man and Tyson is by decision.

>>1755914
It's not actual magic, just a few optical tricks. It's not like he throws fireballs or shoots death rays.
Also, in Super Punch Out the opponents could kick, spit, hit you with hair, throw balls at you and even beat you with a fucking staff.

>>1756895
Well in real life, evander holyfield was headbutting mike tyson over and over and the ref didn't do shit.

so ol' mike bit his ear off.


seems not that far off.

>>1756895
>yfw when super punch out is no dq mma
>implying Batman could beat this man without weapons or other performance enhancers.

>>1755963
There Will Be Brawl was a decent dark take on Nintendo characters. Luigi is a drug dealer.

And let's not forget this asshole staggering around the ring.

>>1755914
he's easy c'mon, just block that barrage he does and you can ko him instantly.
>>1757042
i never got why people say soda is hard, his sprite is kinda weird but his attacks arent hard to dodge especially compared to sandman and macho man

Drunks, kicking, weapons in the ring, people teleporting. Just shoddy, shoddy reffing all around.

there's no rule that says you can't use magic

>>1756172
Dude Punch Out is what I use to train before my boxing matches, so I need for my foes in the game to match the ones in real life, because of that game I expect every indian I fight to use magic on me.

We haven't even touched on the sportsmanship on display in Mario's ring.

>>1757165
Wasn't his name Vodka Drunkinski in the arcade release?

>>1757196
Yes,

>>1757196
Soda Popinski is a way better name, even if it's more tame.

>>1755914
not drugs man... he has to allow it because he needs the money.

stupid bitch Peach spends all his money on shit... and she has to pay child support for all those koopa kids. Not to mention shes been kidnapped and her kingdom has been destroyed about 21 times now. Taxes are probably through the roof.

see here

And how about how Mario always stops counting for the other guy the instant he's no longer flat on the mat?

Yet there Mac is, clearly on his feet, and Mario just keeps on going until the kid raises his gloves.

>>1755914
>this thread

LOREDEEEEP

>>1757087
He's hard because he's the first real challenge in the game. After you fight him the game stops being nice and playing hard ball.

>>1757512
but he isnt really a real challenge. the only move of his thats hard to dodge is that three jab thing he does but it doesnt even matter since its easy to dodge afterwards

>>1756895
The W.V.B.A.-The most corrupt league EVER.

Holy fuck I left for work hours ago and this thread is still alive? I'm gonna love it here in /vr/

>>1757679
/vr/ is the best board.

>>1757687
It makes me happy that my new-found interest in "retro games" has a board for it!

>>1757687
it's one of the only boards on 4chan where people are generally pleasant and not retarded

i love it

>>1757731
Sometimes turns into a massive circle jerk. Better than the usual consol war shit on /v/ tho

>>1757745
I could see circle jerks being rampant, but that happens on many boards

>>1756895

>>1756543
>>absolutely nothing relating to Let's Plays

it's the kind of bullshit that no-one gives a fuck about that you often hear in that kind of videos. Stop lying to yourself

>>1757853
that video is rather impressive

>>1757731
>it's one of the only boards on 4chan where people are generally pleasant

Well, that's only because the janitors delete ANYTHING that looks even slightly confrontational. Seriously.

I get about 5 posts delete per day, and they really aren't even that bad. You can't even call someone a tard in most cases, even if in the same sentence you're giving them useful help.

/vr/ is a hugbox.

>>1758563
There were a thread about earthbound carts that was suddenly gone and another one about emus on dreamcast. Maybe OP deleted them, still strange.

>>1757853
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSr3aXd4XuQ

I'm friends with the guy, it was one hell of a moment when he friggin beat the entire game blindfolded.

>I accidentally did a frame perfect counter

Also the reason he stops calling the times after the minor circuit is because the minor circuit has no randomness to it, from major and on, its anyone's guess what happens, Bob can waste time dancing, Dragon Chan can kick or heal, etc etc.

Special circuit is the worse, all runs live or die depending on the special circuit.

You guys are the reason I keep coming back to this board. Please, don't stop with this.

>>1758563
Ehh, there's still trolling, albeit slightly more subtle. I passed by a Dreamcast thread in which OP mentioned he didn't care for it, though he enjoyed Crazy Taxi. Pretty sure it has way too many replies. It almost rustled my jimbobs, but I decided to just ignore it.

>>1756189
This guy knows what's up.

It's the principle.
Imagine If I had really been serious. I would have been banned for my opinion.

This place is a shit.

Hahaha. Whoever is modding this place is hellbent on it becoming a Reddit/NeoGAF style hugbox where dissenting opinions are shadow deleted and shadow banned.

>>1764717
i bet you banepost on a daily basis

>>1764736
>a Reddit/NeoGAF style hugbox
You mean a nice place for discussion? Fuck off with your board culture /v/.

>>1764738
>us oldfags remember when 4chan was a sweet place for all anons to be nice to eachother

>/v/ went and ruined it

>>1764738
If you think those are nice places for discussion why aren't you there?

>>1755914
Like all good magicians, the Great Tiger is great at not revealing his trick. Mario can't call foul if he doesn't know what was done, or how.

>>1764743
Try and talk about photography on /p/. You don't get baneposting and greentext and shit when you go against the norm.

>>1764745
Shit layout.

And this thread became the reason you should report Meta shit.

[spoilers]and why /q/ should come back[/spoilers]

>>1764751
>Shit layout

Seems a bit weak a reason to me. The real problem is that moderation seems to be done with little consistency or guidelines. Things that probably shouldn't be deleted are, and things that almost certainly should be deleted aren't. It's causing a chilling effect on free discussion of retro games here and is probably why this board is so dead. In the mod's defense, it's understandable to go a little overboard to prevent this place from becoming another /v/, but I think it's gone too far.

>>1764294
Truly the last bastion of free speech ;^)

>>1764781
Just accept it, anon. Stop resisting.

>>1764789
NEVER!

fine.
