I hate it so much, I can't play w/ my wife who loves the game. Just got the new mario bros. wii......

I can't even pretend to like it, i despise it that much. Take that back, I just don't enjoy it at all.

Am I alone? I feel like I'm lost on an island


(goes back to playing warcraft III)

*sniff*, why didn't I marry someone who like strategy games?

My wife and I have played this game non-stop for the last week. Its the most fun we've had together - video game wise.

I played Donkey Kong a couple times way back when it was available on Intellivision. Never really liked video games until the first person shooters came out (Captain Atari arcade game being the first I can remember). We picked up Ray Man cheap. That was cute but basically a Donkey Kong remake.

TBH I prefer Mario 3 and super mario world to any of the Marios that have come out since. The new wii one is decent though, but I enjoy the old ones better. It would be awesome of they redid the old ones but with a whole new world. Use the same engine and all, just different world and different levels.

I agree. I never liked the Mario games. I played the original on NES as a kid. I remember thinking, "Shit, when are games going to get better."

They're better now thankfully.

Got up to 1/2 way through world 7. I must say, the helicopter gadget makes it soooo awesomely easy. Very frustrating moments on world 5 though w/ the boss, that was too damn difficult considering how easy theo ther worlds are.

Stress level increasing...

Eeeeeee!

Looks like he wants to F**k up my plumbing or something?

*Shutters*


Dear gosh.......Holly......Crap.......Just not right. It's just not right!


Not as bad is this twisted site my friend told me about years ago when were teens. Which was for Luigi and people were writing raunchy stories and such all involving Luigi. I have never found that site. Nor would I ever want too....

JUST NOT RIGHT, I tell you!

I'm with OP on this one. My wife has been playing quite a bit since I got it for her for xmas and I can safely say it's not a game I'd willingly play. I LOVE videogames, but hate the tedious jumping sidescroller games.

What's the attraction of Ron Jeremy anyway. I mean how did he get to be a porno super star. Sure my eyes are on the girl when watching pr0n but I don't exactly want the guy to be some hairy Italian plummer either lol.
