How were they allowed to sell this at full price?
>>716475484 (OP)How does OP not know why already?
Because it was a launch title and the scope of successful handheld devices prior to it was fucking Game & Watch toys, Mario Land was huge by comparison.
Reminder
Land was widely acknowledged to be the weakest mainline Mario entry. Now Mario Odyssey, Mario 3d world, and Mario wonder are all far worse. At least according to the beaner kids of /v/
>>716475484 (OP)dont care still my favorite 2d mario
>>716475710I don't know how anyone plays Land 1 and thinks it lands anywhere but last place in the series. It has good music and I like the unusual enemies/stage themes, but the physics are the most ass Mario has ever controlled. Ranking this anywhere high is genuine pure nostalgia and I played and beat this game multiple times on a gameboy during car rides as a kid.
>>716475484 (OP)this game rules, r&d1 dev team, first ever game boy game, hirokazu tanaka audio, peak sovl
>>716475710>Now Mario Odyssey, Mario 3d world, and Mario wonder are all far worse.that's correct, seethe and cope and dilate, zoomer tranny
The Game Boy was effectively new and SML came out at the end of the 80's, SMB1 only came out four years ago at the time. For contemporaries, compare to SML2 (1992), Wario Land and the Donkey Kong remake (1994), the Wario Land sequels since the GBC, and SMB Deluxe (1999).

I HOPE YOU'RE READY TO DIE

YOU'RE NEVER GONNA LEAVE MY CASTLE ALIVE
>>716475484 (OP)It's a 1989 first gen gameboy game for children, not 30 year old jaded youtubers. It's also kino. I'd rather have an enjoyable easy game than a shitty hard one.
>>716475484 (OP)This is the game that made me realize how absolute shit the gb screen, mario starts running and everything turns into a blur.
I'm guessing that's why Land 2 was slower in comparison.
gameboy had the best donkey kong game tho
>>716479592Just turn off Motion Blur in the settings.
>>716479928Great mix of platformer and puzzle game. Mario vs DK was fine too but I'm still mad they turned that into fucking Lemmings.
>>716475484 (OP)Yeah it's not great. But Land 2 and 3 (wario1) are absolute kino

>>716475484 (OP)Imagine being filtered so hard by the best Mario game on the GB.
>>716475484 (OP)The only redeeming thing about this was the music.
This felt more like a demo than an actual game ready to be sold.
>>716475710how brainrotted do you have to be to actually believe this?

>>716479928took months to finish this as a kid. battery burner
>>716476058But it introduced Daisy and Tatanga, so it's "underrated"
>>716475484 (OP)It's just another case of 'you just don't get it' and you can't, you clearly don't. Even if I explained to you, it's obvious you didn't 'get it' the first time.
>>716475484 (OP)still the only decent platformer on the gameboy
>>716484950>
Bro what the FUCK!? I thought this was impossible, just looked it up..what the FUCK? Anybody can get infected by the troon virus at this point..what the hell..
>>716485105>still the only decent platformer on the gameboyShut the fuck up you're mouth
>>716484950I followed Brando on YouTube for years and even saw the attempted reunion with Duane go down in flames.
I unsubscribed when I start seeing the signs that Brando was going down that rabbit hole.
Such a fucking waste of talent, Adventures of DnB was the soundtrack of my high-school years.
>>716475484 (OP)There wasn't much else to play at the time, and the world was a different place in 1989. It was a horrible time really, I was actually forced to interact with people like you in person. Thank God that's no longer a requirement.
>>716475484 (OP)>even casuals can beat it in like 30 minutesIt wasn't an easy game back then
>>716485602He showed signs of going down the tranny path? It didn't just happen suddenly??
>>716475484 (OP)A functional Mario platformer on a handheld device in the mid-late 80s was insane. It's one of the weaker Mario platformers outside of some nice music and the fun of the bouncing ball powerup in some rooms but it was a really solid showcase of the GameBoy.
Land 2 obliterates it in quality but you'd hope it would if there's years of understanding the hardware better.
>>716479928Genuinely think this is Miyamoto's best game. Just excellence in game design from start to finish with really great presentation as well.
>>716485602My friend and I had the Mega Man 2 rap memorized in like 8th-9th grade. That said it was clearly a flash in the pan with both guys going solo with weaker material than they had together before I had even finished high school and trying to cling to those golden years.
>>716487173Fuck you I had forgotten about that
>>716475710>>716476058It's the "worst Mario game" but that doesn't mean it's a bad game. I thought it was cute.
>>716486637If we're never getting another Wario Land game, then at least give us another Mario game where Wario is the main villain.
