Um Culex was pretty freak'n hard but that doesn't count.... Oh the final Bowser in SM64 was pretty hard when your new to this whole 3D experience.

I agree

tbh I didn't actually know how to beat him when I was a tyke

until my brother showed me how to beat him, which I realized was pretty easy from the begining

I could never beat Bowser in Paper Mario 1

he's probably much easier than I'm giving him credit for but I'm stuck and I can't level up much more at this point sooo

You wouldn't have this problem if you fought all of the enemies throughout the game you baby :\/

Super Mario World
having to throw those robot dudes up in the air and time it perfectly was annoying

I was actually thinking about SMW when I posted that. I found Bowser to be even easier than some Koopalings I fought. Specially when Peach gives you shrooms all the time. Bowser didn't have any kind of attack that was hard to dodge or anything.

That was pretty easy and disappointing too. And plus, when you face stages like Rainbow Cruise, by the time you get to the final boss, you're already the master of 3D platforming.

Bowser in PM1 was always pretty annoying to me, but mostly because he likes to heal himself every time I get his health low. Fucker.

went to Nintendo World yesterday, played through till at least World 3 and purchased the game and participated in their cool event in Rockefeller

Actually, I was interviewed by Nintendo Week's media crew [i was dressed head to toe in mario stuff, i looked p. neat but during the interview I was so excited I ended up losing my train of thought mid sentence. I'll probably end up on /v/ as the "It's got up to 4 players, right?" guy]

this is a pretty neato game, but it's really annoying to play by yourself. I suggest going out, making friends and inviting them back to your place just to play the game, because this game is a pretty awesome co-op experience (especially if you're Koopaul: You'll be barking orders at everyone and telling everyone what to do hdjshf). When playing it with my girlfriend I liked picking her character up, jumping and throwing her away from pipes and entering them first, just to be an asshole.

Quoting for emphasis. Dear god I hated this boss.

So, I got the game, and so far, it's really fun.
Unless you're doing co-op with my sisters, of course, because they can't seem to avoid even basic obstacles and have been constantly jumping on me over pits, so I've been hemorrhaging lives when I really shouldn't be.

I always skipped that stage when I was 8. Could only manage one Star. Still had enough Stars to face the final Bowser. Every time I grabbed him, his homing hopping flames would burn me and I would let go. Then I learned to grab him after he dashes after you. But I died like a crap load of times before learning that.

Hm video games were way harder because you were little. Not to mention my only system prior to the N64 was a hand me down NES at six. That's right I missed the SNES generation. (I made up for it later)


Ahem sorry... Stroll down memory lane there.

As for NSMBW I can't obtain it 'till Christmas.

I got NSMBW today, and its great!
