Finally beat the original Super Mario Bros.! Okay, not original, but the All-Stars version. I kinda feel bad for using the continues, but World 8 was hard as hell! Especially with the hammer bros. But I'm pretty proud after finally completing a game without savestate abuse. Didn't even use 1 savestate
Did you guys struggle with the same game?
Do any of you guys have a bad addiction to savestates?

Hate to rain on your parade, but you didn't. Using a continue on a game where they could only be used via cheat code is functionally no different from savestate abuse.j/k I lied, I loved raining on your parade.
This is the greatest unintentional bait I have ever seen.
OP you have done far, far more than you think. Maybe if this thread kicks off we can spin up a good castlevania thread
If you use savestates you shouldn't call yourself a retro gamer. Play it how it's intended, jackass.

>unintentional
/vr/ can be really naive
Reminder that the All-Stars version has broken momentum physics

Specifically the physics in SMB1 and SMB2, though there is a patch out there that fixes it.

Nah, castlevania sucks.

Yeah, but Earthbound was better.

good job anon. I got this game with my snes when I was ~7 and only finished it last year. The trick is don't get stranded on a later world with no powerupsor don't suck
