Skye Reynolds 09/14/19 10:56:51 AM #1:	You know how, in a fight, you want to slowly wait on your opponent to make their move so that you can get just the right reaction to their movements? Yeah, that's great advice FOR GETTING YOUR ASS KICKED. But in a video game, they can say that night is day, fire is cold, water is dry, etc. I've spent 25 fucking hours this week (in addition to my regular job) on this shitty NES Pro Wrestling game and I still can't beat it. Last night, I decided to go ahead and cheat and look up online how to beat it. As it turns out, quick reflexes are not how you win. You're supposed to grapple your opponent, wait to see whether or not they're gonna perform a move on you, then slowly and methodically deliver your move. I literally have to say, "One-two-piledrive you" in my head to be able to get the timing down. My natural instincts are to mash the buttons as quickly as possible. But, hey, if we're talking instincts, I don't like offering myself to my opponent in a grapple anyway. I want to kick the crap out of them and then go in and wrestle them once I have them good and tired. But punches and kicks become useless by the end of the game, so there's no point in ever using them. You have to grapple. This game just says fuck your instincts, fuck what you're used to, and fuck what you want to do. You play my way. It's part chess game and part rock, paper, scissors. When you go for a grapple, they might hit you with a quick body drop before you can land your slow back body drop. But you gotta take that chance. So, basically, it's a fucking dice game and there's nothing you can do to your opponent to guarantee absolute victory -- in a game where you have to win 10 consecutive matches to face the final boss. It's not even noon and I've thrown my voice out yelling at this game. I've giving serious consideration to smashing it once I beat it. <cite>Skye Reynolds posted [p:927424249] in This fucki...

I've spent 25 fucking hours this week (in addition to my regular job) on this shitty NES Pro Wrestling game ............. why Because I want to beat it and be done with it. If I make up my mind I'm going to win, that happens. I don't care if it takes 250 hours, I will beat this game and using the character I have selected to beat this game with. dr_marble posted... I did NOT see NES pro wrestling coming Have you ever beaten it? It has six wrestling characters to choose from. Once you pick one, you face the other five. The game has two contingencies to make sure you don't beat it in a single day. 1) You have to win ten consecutive matches (as the champion) to challenge Great Puma. 2) If you lose to an opponent, you get a rematch against them at a lower difficulty level. It's designed so that you lose to an opponent, beat them in an immediate rematch, and turn the game off relatively satisfied. I'm sure that's the case for well over 90% of people who have ever played this game. The booby prize of getting a victorious rematch against the guy who beat me isn't enough. I want to beat the game. I want to see that end screen and know that I've beaten Great Puma the same way that I've beaten Mike Tyson and Mr. Dream. And unlike either version of Punch-Out, I'm not willing to let 20 years go by without my having beaten it. I'm beating it now. If it takes a month, if it takes two months, if it becomes my life's obsession, I will beat it. It's not healthy to look at the same screen over and over again and play the same five opponents at varying levels of difficulty. But I've gotta beat it. I have to win. <cite>Skye Reynolds posted [p:927425188] in This fucki...

Skye Reynolds 09/14/19 4:51:13 PM #10:	I feel like a surgeon who's just lost a patient. I almost made it to the penultimate opponent. After being pinned, I had to wash my hands and wipe the sweat off of my controller. It's not the difficulty that gets me. It's the penalty for losing. You have to face an additional 11 opponents if you lose once. You're better off just to reset the game and start from the beginning. That's is just utterly uncalled for. That's like being like if dying once in World 7 of Super Mario Bros. sent you back to World 2-1 without the option of using a warp zone. <cite>Skye Reynolds posted [p:927436875] in This fucki...

Skye Reynolds 09/15/19 11:17:36 AM #21:	How could they design a game where it's virtually impossible for the default character to win? You wanna know how to beat the last few opponents? Spam your strong grapple from the beginning of the match. Except Antonio Inoki, I mean Fighter Hayabusa, doesn't have a strong grapple that can be pulled off at will. He has a piledriver and a brain buster which can only be performed if the opponent is worn down -- something that is virtually impossible to do to the final guys using basic moves. Your only shot at winning is to master the fussiest and most ridiculous move in NES history: the back brain kick. There is one exact pixel from which you can hit this move. It looks like your character is grabbing the opponent's tights from underneath. And you have a tenth of a second to perform it. And the later opponents actively try to dodge it. It's like trying to hit a moving target in a quick draw game and you have to be able to do it consistently to try and win. <cite>Skye Reynolds posted [p:927466552] in This fucki...
