Fantastic match. Or rather fantastic result. Saying that as someone who loves Magus and isn't too much into Sonic.

Who was it that had Squall > Geno as the only correct match in this entire division

I kinda wish the portal levels were more difficult. But I have also long affected that family games aren't gonna be hard for me unless they do some more difficult postgame stuff and Nintendo is generally pretty good at giving me that so it's a fine compromise as long as I'm having fun with the game.

I have been a good bit busy, so I've still got a while.

Yeah, that'd have been fun back in the day, not really much now. I can confirm Nobunaga works with mouse controls.

Also another game I've been playing is Cosmo Gang the Puzzle. It was a breeze for the first 90 levels and then came a huge difficulty spike. Currently at 97 but I say on 95 for a good while. I've also noticed that you don't get the same blocks, so there is some luck involved. You gotta both figure the right strategy and be lucky to get blocks supporting it. As for the high score part of the game, I simply beat the higest score there and called it a day. Wasn't too much trouble. I'd say beating the 100 puzzles stages is the completion criteria.

The movie being bad doesnt matter, bunch of badly received movies being thrown around here. The sequel being awful matters even less that's not the movie we're talking about, so it's a weird point to bring up. Adjusted for inflation I'm pretty sure it wasn't until the Mario movie two years ago it was beaten and that was the gold standard.

This is a bit hard to compare to anything. It's kinda cool they put it on here for the novelty but it kinda sucks to "play". There are a bunch of things that you can do, but it's just been made so extremely obsolete. I beat the bee minigame as suggested. Took a few attempts until I grapped a mousepad. Meh, it was quick to knockout.

During this topic, which has been the slowest after the past two were the quickest, the service was renamed to Nintendo Classics. I guess we can have the next topic title reflect that.

I'm considering starting Shining Force II up within the next few days, I think enough time has passed and I feel like taking on something longer I know I'll enjoy. With give Nobunaga a mouse control attempt first though.

Ctes has beaten ToeJam & Earl in Panic on Funkotron

Alright I did it. Felt a bit like a drag. Something that is not different from the first is that it's still quite repetitive with only the second to last stage feeling like it offered a little bit of variety. Enemies, obstacles, ways to progress and everything is the exact same the whole way through basically. It's not a long game, but it took me about 5 hours of playtime with no variety. Most unvaried games on this service are shorter than that. Trampolines can kinda f*** off and multiple enemies are stright up bad as well.

It was passable. The cast is likeable enough but the humor doesn't really hit me, perhaps because it's super outdated but nonetheless. It's not a good platformer either, if the gameplay had just one fun element that'd be something. Most enemies suck to fight and the platforming isn't what is supposed to challenge you, it focuses more on exploration. I'll give it that its style makes it memorable, but while it wasn't straight up bad I didn't really enjoy it.

I was certain Roony Bardghji would move away feom us to a semi big adress for a good sale. Instead he moved to a top shelf adress for not that much money. I doubt Barcelona has bought a player in Copenhagen before. I see he scored in their first preseason match. Maybe they do intend for him to be a backup to Yamal but I kinda expect them to just make a sale from him somewhat soon. Either way, pretty curious to see how he does and I'll remember him for that 4-3 goal against Manchester United to move on from CL two years ago.
