god, i suck at mario 2. i'm disparaging my legacy.... seriously, how the fuck have i beaten the lost levels without save states but can't get past 1-3 in american mario 2???? why am i not instantly good at a game i've never really played, god!!!! my mother would be disappointed in me

post writing the tags turtle here: i started rambling about my childhood made the tags longer than the actual post and don't feel like putting them onto the actual post because that'd be too much work and i'm feeling lazy. read em if you want personal bullshit! or don't. i'm not care

#one of the few luxuries we had growing up was a super nintendo #it was pretty much exclusively my mom's. and some of my earliest memories are watching her play super mario all stars and a link to the pas #she only specifically ever played mario 2 and 3. i never saw mario 1 or the lost levels as a kid #guess they're not as replayable to her. she says she's beaten both once #for some reason i remember playing a fair amount of donkey kong country. we had all 3 of them #i think as a kid i got farthest in the 3rd one? always got weird vibes from that one but it was still fun #growing up *my* home console was an N64. mom didn't really like it for whatever reason so it usually lived in my room #i still remember buying majora's mask from a toy store that's not in business anymore. i think that was one of my only games that wasn't a #hand-me-down. i think it was that and turok rage wars #as far as i remember everything else was given by a relative or a relative's boyfriend or something #still don't know where a lot of them went #i used to have the tony hawk games on there. and i think i remember gex? i think those were my cousins boyfriends stuff #i guess he took em back at some point #last i heard about that cousin she was in jail wacked out on drugs #i remember her boyfriend being a good guy. i think she got him on drugs or something. bad influence i guess #i hope he's doing better now. as an adult i'd say he's too good for her #or maybe i'm just nostalgic for one of the only positive male figures i had as a child. hell if i know #tags are now longer than the actual post. i don't feel like movin em to the post now. too much work #oh well! such is life #or as the franch say... Say Luh V!#i hope reading that made a francophone physically hurt. i hope they feel pain because of me #sorry that's not very nice. i'm not gonna delete that though.
