I just want to mention the SNES port of Race Drivin’, for its much worse arcade to console downgrade, and its slightly less horrific use of an apostrophe.
Does it? You would say that’s one of the ever I had of a steak sandwich, if it was one of the best. It seems like it needs best/worst/mediocre sort of descriptive word in there to make sense. Mean you can guess from the scene and tone but I’d never write it out or even say it that way. Of course I never did well in English and am glad to learn new things.
I read it correctly and then re-read because I felt like I must have missed the word and it would actually be there. Then I read it a third time to really make sure.
Literally the first thing that pops into my mind when I think about this as well. And you had to do a secret code to get it, even in the arcade! Something to do with turning the wheel a few times and then the gas and brake in a certain order?
Edit- looked it up. was just holding down view 2. thought there was more to it.
I remember when Mario 3 came out, there was so much hype and demand for yet another sequel that a local game rental store put a copy of “Super Mario Bros. 4” on their shelf. Astonished at our good fortune, we immediately rented it.
Our first clue something was off: the box was much different, square-shaped. Mario was on the box, but the writing was all in Japanese.
The game cartridge was also odd, but we just chalked it up to being a super-secret Japanese release and rushed home to play it. Looking back, It was actually a Famicom cartridge with a converter attached to it.
When we turned on the game, it gave us Mario game and a Luigi game options. We were quite befuddled to pick up the poison mushroom almost immediately and get that face-slap the game was intended to deliver. Somehow my brother later discovered he could play even harder levels right away by holding one or 2 of the buttons while pressing start.
Overall it was a bit disappointing, but it was the game we selected to rent so we were stuck with it and played the hell out of it. What a weird surprise to see it come back years later on the SNES…
