Yeah, it's really boring. To the point I'm surprised anyone liked this enough for Nintendo to have decided to reuse the characters for SMB. I don't think I'll have the patience to get anywhere. I can't muster enough to play a second consecutive game and my games are short. Can't imagine doing this for an hour and a half plus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see much appeal in such endless point pressing fest and I get that most of you guys don't either. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: personally, I feel a greater accomplishment getting further and not point pressing..........Donkey Kong would have been fun to see how far we could get, but I might be in the minority on this...........IDK Edited June 10, 2020 by Jeevan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game does start to get repetitive after 30 phases by playing normally, so that is probably a good idea. I still might give it another shot this week. I can't let @bertsampson win that easy!

mbd39 | 2,020 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I'm not a big fan of this one. I barely scraped by when we played this in the 2016 tournament. Tetris week can't happen soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tetris week can't happen soon enough. I'm just trying to keep @bertsampson's losing streak alive for one more week. He can pad his stats the rest of the season while I'm gone, just like he did the last 3 seasons. He's only got two wins this season and they were both on tiebreakers. He may have the lead in the overall standings, but I've got 3 wins free and clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only championships you won were after I retired so you didn't beat me for a single one, but you're gonna lose your last one this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, you saw me coming and crawled into your cave scared. I'm glad you finally came out of your hole this year so we can settle this. You can go back into hiding after you fail to make it past the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're the one that will probably lose in the first round, but I won't let you off that easy. If we don't settle this in the finals, I'll make sure we settle it one on one in the off season.
