Do people call gaming hotlines any more, I wonder?
I once called for help with the end of COSMIC FANTASY 2 on the Turbo-CD, can't remember how much it cost though...



Who's mario again?

Ha I posted this once on the early days of VGCHARTZ =p.

But it is always nice to see this back.

The thing that always took my attention is what one of the people says...

Mario....Uhmz sound Japanese..... Maybe because I live in Europe but Mario always sounded Italian for me and not Japanese...

Yeap,  that was the first time I saw it it Konnichiwa..

I think the guy said Nintendo sounds japanese...

wow. isn't that the guy is now a really annoying conservative anchor on fox or something...

Now a new news question would be to find people who actually don't know who Mario is or Nintendo.

The Nintendo one was free. This would never happen in today's gaming world. That's exactly where I learned the SMB one up move on the staircase they showed in the video. I think they gave me a tip to get through the original Metroid as well. Never used 'em for Zelda though. Crazy how well those franchises have held up. 



BAM! There it is!

Whoa, a gaming hotline.

Heh, the original Nintendo was only $100 (~$180 with inflation).



Hi there.

If I had a time machine, I would go to that store, and just buy so much Mario stuff..

Heh, I'd actually go back in time and buy a lot of stock for a lot of companies that were small then and are huge now.

Also I think 80% of the people on this forums weren't even born in 1988.

 



Loved that.."they are going to another world"
