Super Mario 64 (my favorite) can rent a fuckin car

 

[HockeyBird]

Your favorite videogames are old because you are old

 

[Hoagmaster]

Sup.

I finished Xenoblade 3 while I was on an impromptu break. 150ish hours and a good amount of fun.

Now I can move onto smaller games!

 

[Mr_No_U]

Your favorite videogames are old because you are old

no u

 

[Raccoon]

after getting into it this summer 64 has become my favorite 3D Mario

nothing else controls like it

Super Mario 64 (my favorite) can rent a fuckin car

Super Mario Sunshine is now at the age I was when I posted on Facebook about "Sometimes when I'm lying in bed, I think "Shit, I'm 20 now"" as a point of feeling old.

At 31 everytime I see that in my memories I wish I could go back and either sigh at myself or give a smack upside the head.

you just turned into a 30+ year old nintendo fan, I can't be the only one left bro please

 

[Raccoon]

you just turned into a 30+ year old nintendo fan, I can't be the only one left bro please

until 3D Mario catches up to the Nintendo highs of Wii Sports Resort, Tomodachi Life, and Pikmin 3 I simply cannot endorse the new games

 

[Dardan Sandiego]

People who pretend to like games that were released before they were born make me sick.

Yes, this 90s baby's favourite game is SMB3, why do you ask?

 

[Skittzo]

you just turned into a 30+ year old nintendo fan, I can't be the only one left bro please

Being 30+ isn't so bad. You don't have to go out at night ever, you can just ignore new trends and you start to learn all sorts of new stuff about yardwork and housework.

for sure I just like being nintendo ageist

 

[9-Volt]

Hah! My favorite video game can't be old as it's not even born yet. Bayo 3 comes out tomorrow, it's -1 days old right now.

 

[Raccoon]

for sure I just like being nintendo ageist

never forget that everyone older than us is out of touch and everyone younger is a fucking idiot

 

[jirou]

I know younger fans that are based, just vibing to yokai watch, pokemon et al

I'm calling bullshit. Nobody actually likes playing NES games.

a lot of the kids these days hate miis so I in turn hate them

 

[Raccoon]

if you hate miis I hate thii

 

[jirou]

a lot of the kids these days hate miis so I in turn hate them

I need proof for that, how would they even know miis exist

 

[jirou]

11 year olds love breath of the wild, this is not a joke

 

[Skittzo]

11 year olds love breath of the wild, this is not a joke

Breath of the W11ld

 

[HockeyBird]

Nintendo Switch Sports featuring Miis from the Super Smash Bros series.

 

[jirou]

Breath of the W11ld

I know more than one 7th grader whose favourite game is Botw!! It's true!!

 

[Dardan Sandiego]

You just gotta play on Nintendo Switch Online for the Nintendo Switch™ Family of systems

 

[Raccoon]

I know more than one 7th grader whose favourite game is Botw!! It's true!!

all jokes aside this is really cool

 

[SuperFakerBros]

Your favorite videogames are old because you are old

No, don't say that. I'm still hip. I'm still with it

 

[Skittzo]

all jokes aside

Hey who agreed to that

 

[Mr_No_U]

It's that time to post this, isn't it

 

[Dardan Sandiego]

heard through the grapevine that Corruption is Raccoon's favourite Metroid game

no idea why tho

 

[MissingNo.]

Dunno about my favourite video game, but in my favourite genre of video games, I would be considered an old fart with grey hair in my late twenties.

However, in real life I am still young, and only my beard has partially turned grey. So take that, video games!

 

[Catalyst]

Switch kids will never know how brilliant Super Mario Galaxy 2 is and it’s all Nintendo’s fault.

 

[Raccoon]

heard through the grapevine that Corruption is Raccoon's favourite Metroid game

not sure how accurate an assumption it is but I attribute a lot of older fans' mii/wii resentment to stuff like this

 

[Imitatio]

I'll take all your nickels and put you in jail

so you'd be in a nickelless cage

Reluctant Yeah

 

[chocolate_supra]

That's what I love about it! The trick jumps and directional changes feel much easier for me to pull off. I love Odyssey but I played it back-to-back with 64 for the 35th anniversary and I just kept goofing things up in Odyssey while 64 felt more controllable. The side flip and backflip in particular feel much more satisfying.

Your favorite videogames are old because you are old

Oh yeah? How do you explain my favorite 3D Zelda being Skyward Sword, huh?

 

[jirou]

all jokes aside this is really cool

Agreed, they even do some of the speedrun stuff they see on youtube

 

[ermitron2]

It's that time to post this, isn't it

This is why I don't go to stores anymore

me taking a bunch of switch games
Clerk "a, presents for your kids sir?
Me: "uh... yeah..."

 

[Dardan Sandiego]

It definitely didn't help, imo. The ubiquitousness of the Mii caused a lot of unwarranted animosity towards them. They've sadly become emblematic of an era of Nintendo some people absolutely detest. For some reason people can't appreciate them for what they are.

 

[Imitatio]

For some reason people can't appreciate them for what they are.

Images of the devil? Offspring of the abyss?
Mascots of the Saw movies???

 

[jirou]

without miis none of the botw npcs would have faces

A 10-year old who played Skyward Sword on Wii is now getting a drunk at a cager in college old man.

 

[Dardan Sandiego]

Playing Nintendo Switch Sports, being twice as old as I was when I played Wii Sports for the first time.

 

[chocolate_supra]

There's only been one mainline Zelda since then, though. Skyward Sword is the second-newest Zelda.

It's not my fault game development takes forever now.

Hell, if I'da picked BotW, a 10-year old who played that game would be getting drunk at a rager in high school right now.

at least I assume that's what high schoolers do, as I was not cool enough to be invited to anything like that

 

[jnWake]

Replaying Kid Icarus Uprising has reminded me how good it is, even better than I remembered!

I need to resist the urge to try stages at high intensities though, that's what got me stuck replaying levels instead of progressing with the story last time I played it...

 

[Soul Skater]

Edit: actually Im too tired lament about 3D platforming so nvm

 

[hologram]

Correct. It controls bad, and all the other 3D Mario games do not

Your bad back and creeky legs don't care how many mainline Zelda have been released since then.

Boy I sure do love entering a long sliding animation the moment I glance sideways at a slope

 

[Raccoon]

strongly disagree

 

[NabiscoFelt]

strongly disagree

Super Mario 64 dares to ask the bold question: what if every level felt like an annoying ice level?

(I kid, partially, obviously the game's doing something right for it to get so much praise over its controls but that's more or less what it felt like for me)

 

[chocolate_supra]

"im not old! im not old!!", i continue to insist as i slowly shrink and transform into creamed corn
