Sometimes Simple is Better...

So, last night I pulled my Super Nintendo out of it's mountainous layer of dust, and I stuck in Family Feud (and this was at 1:00 in the morning because I was determined to play a few rounds).  It took me awhile to remember how to hook it up, I was looking for those yellow, white, and red cords, and then I was like, "Oh riiiiiiight, I'm supposed to screw it into the antenna bit."  I forgot how much I hate doing that.  I had to unscrew the cable, then screw in the SNES, then screw the cable into the SNES.  Anyway, after all that, I got the game going, and realized that my stupid "Start" button no longer works, and Family Feud won't start without hitting the start button.  So I plugged in my other control, which no longer works at all.  BAH!  So I went back to the other control and just pressed really hard on the start button and that got it going, but so much so that it just skipped right past the options screen and everything and went right into the game, and I was stuck being my least favorite family.  Oh well, at least I got it going.  Then I realized that this game is terribly outdated, and I have trouble remembering how things were 15 years ago.  So I got a lot of strikes.  But I did win eventually and got to fast money (which is really the only reason for playing because fast money is awesome) and again, my answers were too set in this time than 15 years ago, but I still managed to win because I got a few #1 answers.  Anyway, it was nice taking a trip down memory lane.  Oh, and the game has Ray saying "Bullseye!" and "Number one answer!" so his voice is on there, although it doesn't sound like Ray, sounds more like Ernie from Sesame Street.

And I just can't hook up my SNES and not play Super Mario World.  I love this game.  This is the greatest game ever invented.  It is superior to all other Marios, hence why it has the "Super" in the beginning.  Hee.  I whipped through all the stages in the first level in about 8 minutes, that's how well I know this game.  And I could probably beat the entire game in two hours, but it was late and I had to go to bed, so I stopped myself.  But I love this game.  The fancy, groundbreaking graphics of Sunshine Mario just don't equal the absolute fun that Super Mario World gives me.  Sometimes simple is better.  I really need to get the Paper Mario games, because those look more old school, so I'd probably enjoy those.  I love Sunshine Mario too, it's just so weird compared to the other Mario games, too complicated.  I gave up on it pretty quickly.  But Super Mario, with his multi-colored Yoshi and his awesome cape that he can do tricks with, is so much more fun.  Not as puzzling as Sunshine Mario, but hey, sometimes I just like winning for once.  I love that confidence boost.  But I have kicked this game's ass way too many times, so it's really not challenging at all, but I still love it.
