A rant about Super Mario Galaxy 2

Forgive the lack of a creative title, but I am calling this what it is. It is a rant about Super Mario Galaxy 2. I was playing earlier, when I noticed all these stupid little bulletin boards that would show me hints/videos of how to jump across the platform. Really nintendo? Anyone who uses those hints deserves to have the game taken away.

I don't care if it's a three year old. Part of the fun of the game is figuring out how to accomplish what needs to be done on your own. Video games taught me to be persistent and keep trying until I got it right. You don't get that same feeling of accomplishment if someone does it for you. Hell, you might as well just buy Super Mario Galaxy 2:the abridged version.

"Bobby Koch you're the most succesful businessman in the world what taught you to never give up " "Video games, not that shit with the signs that tell you how to fucking do it, no the old school way. You messed up, that was game over. You could go cry to mommy or you could try again. Well me? I wanted that fucking star. It was shiny"

That would be like buying a copy of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince back when it came out and having someone tell you Snapes kills Dumbledore and then going on to say that *gasp* Snape was the half blood prince...and telling you every part except that Harry's dad gave Snape a wedgie which honestly who wouldn't? I can imagine kids today, "This is the greatest game ever. All I have to do is sit and watch while other people show me exactly what to do. This teaches me that if I cry enough, people will do everything in life for me. That will definitely come in handy in the workplace"

And nintendo wonders why people think they are for kids? You know what? Mario finally needs to get some from the princess. Yeah I said it.

How many cakes can one man (even a fat italian man) eat? Seriously? No. He is done with cakes. You may say won't the parents of little kids lash out against Nintendo if Mario finally gets what he deserves? No, because even when they were kids he was still only getting cake. It's time.

Also what's with Peach always getting kidnapped? Seriously! Is her security detail worse than the detail for the Kennedy family?

Finally, Toad. Why don't you stop telling my princess is another castle, world, or now...galaxy and be useful. Like bring me a piece of that cake I've eaten twenty times in the span of my gaming career now.


Until next time,
