I imagine the hate-clicks from GenXers and retro-game enthusiasts do wonders for Laughing Boy’s engagement

Kids man… I remember back in the day being asked to review a gaming site a young’un was trying to get off the ground and I had to correct them that Mario was NOT created by Atari and man, they were ADAMANT.

Their evidence?

RightHandOfIkaros,

Its even funnier because Nintendo’s brand name is printed three times on that cartridge.

SpaceNoodle,

Yeah but it says Atari twice

RightHandOfIkaros,

It says Atari also 3 times. Also Sears.

jordanlund,
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, Sears had their own licensed knock off of the Atari 2600.

Todd_cross,

And Coleco

“Donkey Kong by Nintendo”

This won’t stop me because I can’t read.

Bonesince1997,

But what about Green Mario??

Try doing it in real time and then talk to me about it.

Played this years ago but couldn’t quite get into it. Maybe I should try it again to see if it clicks

It’s much better with friends imo. Me and the friend in this picture went to pick up a generator from an airstrip and it was forecast to snow. I crashed the car. So we were racing while dragging the generator for miles to get back to our base before it started snowing.

Funny because it’s NES (1983/85) Mario over a N64 (1996/97) controller. Idiots

RightHandOfIkaros,

I guarantee you that N64 controller is the wireless reissue for the Nintendo Switch and not a real genuine N64 controller that plugs into an N64.

Bonesince1997,

Ah geez, it’s worse lol

It’s called rage batting for a reason.

leisesprecher,

Just to play devil’s advocate: Mario is without a doubt the oldest recognizable character that still has some modern appearances. You can’t really take pong and some shitty mobile game as a comparison.

HeyJoe,

I think Pac Man is the oldest, but only by a year.

arkthos,

It gets very blurry in the early days of video games. Ahoy made a great video about just that, actually: m.youtube.com/watch?v=uHQ4WCU1WQc&pp=ygUYYWhveSBl…

Basically, there’s earlier games than pacman, but what actually constitutes a video game starts to become a much less trivial question.

That kid knows exactly what he’s doing. Bravo I say.

This isn’t 2D… I think of Mario or Sonic as 2D, what’s this though, isometric?

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Oh yeah. You’re right. I guess I associate this with being 2D because of all the 2D sprites it uses

He even has the broccoli haircut. He knows what he’s doing.

Furball,

Nobody who has a broccoli haircut knows anything in general

harrys_balzac,

He’s probably aware that he’s doing something. And whatever that is means he’s getting views and that’s all that matters.

Freakin’ Jerries man…

Love your content, and hope you never forget to post! :)

I don’t give these guys any clicks.

I played these games when I was a kid (80’s):

Speed Race

Tank

The games were still being played more than 10 years later and they had copycat versions floating around.

Capitalism

Amazing game, especially in multiplayer. It’s one of my most played games in online game sessions with family and friends.

MyNameIsAtticus,

I’d love to get Server setup for my close friend group but I only have 1 friend who would play it regularly, and only 5 of them even own it. So that probably won’t be happening anytime soon.

xapr,

Sorry to hear. By the way, you don’t even need to set up a server. Anyone can host within the game itself, so it can be a spur of the moment thing. Of the ones who own it, have any of them tried playing it, especially multiplayer? What the game lacks in terms of advanced graphics it more than makes up with gameplay, atmosphere, and depth. Good luck!

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

Oh yeah. I just meant like a larger scale 24/7 server. Something where I can see it grow when I’m not there

xapr,

Oh, for sure. My friend ended up setting up a permanent server. It’s pretty cool because anyone of us can jump in and play at any time. Although anytime someone does it starts the clock ticking forward, which leads to consequences, as I’m sure you’re aware.

I usually don’t like sharing 2D games because they’re hard to make look presentable, but i also like sharing images that break out of my usual “Here’s a Landscape shot” and wanted to share this.

I’ve been following your posts daily, and this is probably the most interesting one yet.

I’ve been trying to take screenshots that are more interesting, so including things like NPCs and my friends I play with. The scenic shots look good but they aren’t really interesting to look at I feel like and I’ve noticed people seem to have a lot more fun with these when there’s a subject to them
