Memorable Moments?

Macawmoses · February 13, 2009, 04:32:20 PM

What's the one moment in Nintendo history that you remember more vividly than anything else?

Slicing through Ganondorf in OoT? Getting your first Pokemon? Bowser emerging from the lava as Dry Bowser, in NSMB? What?

The one I'll always remember is Macbeth on Star Fox. The whole level, really, but the actual boss battle was pretty memorable to me. HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT THE BREEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKS.

Yours?

The first Nintendo game I owned was Super Mario World 2, and getting Yoshi for the first time was very memorable for me.

Getting Wii Sports :P

Okay, to be serious, when I managed to make a what I dubbed "super Machine" in F-Zero GX (It kicks ass. Super turning... Fast, yeah).
Or seeing the Chozo Ghosts in Metroid Prime for the first time.
Or my first completion of Super Mario Bros.

I have 3:
1. Turning on Mario 64 for the first time. It was so cool to see Mario in 3D and actually say stuff. "HELLO!" I couldn't even beat the first star without my mom's help (she plays Mario and Pac-Man)
2. Beating Super Mario Bros. for the first time
3. FINALLY getting past that first darn barrel shooting level in the Ice World in Donkey Kong Country. God that first level is a ninny.

My first playthrough of Paper Mario. Good times.

Going through all the eviorenments in Paper Mario 1. Wow that game was really good.

Also, getting all the artifacts in Metroid Prime 1. Wow they were a ninny to collect, especially when you don't use a guide. ::)

Defeating the Holoholo Bird from Baten Kaitos for the very first time was a really memorable moment for me. I still won't forget how hard that boss was and how underleveled I was.

I remember beating the last of Koga's Pokemon with a really under-leveled Charmelon . I think it was Charmelon, at least.

4 players on Mario Party 2.
Beating the REAL Bowser in SMB Deluxe.
Beating Master Hand for the first time.
Playing Super Mario World for the first time.

...*sigh*

The opening scene for ssbm... so epic.

Neerb · March 03, 2009, 07:10:13 PM

Beating Paper Mario (very satisfying and best credit sequence of all time), Ocarina of Time (OoT Beast Ganon is the coolest boss ever), Wind Waker (odd how the most kiddyish Zelda at the time had the most graphic ending at the time), and Majora's Mask (most involving Zelda story, making it you almost tearfully happy when you see all your hard work finally paying off... oh, and FIERCE DEITY LINK FTW!!!).

Defeating Tabuu for the first time. That was one heck of an epic fight. I only had 1 of my 6 characters left. I had over 100 percent damage. I got hit by a move, couldn't get back, BUT, right before I got hit I throwed a Green shell into the air and that finished Tabuu while I was going to be defeated. XD

EPONA COME BACK!!!! WHYYYYY NINTENDO WHYYYYYY!!?!?!?!???!?!?!? *goes and sobs in a corner*
Zelda needs another story like that! Deep and involving!

Oh, I forgot another memorable moment: when Peppy died. In Assault, Peppy kamikazes the Great Fox into the Aparoid home world, and while it later reveals that he used an escape pod, IT BLEW MY MIND. I remember that I actually believed he was dead (it doesn't reveal the truth until after you beat the game), and when it happened, I just stared, mouth agape for a few seconds before saying aloud "OH MY GOSH PEPPY'S DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!1!!11!!!!!" It was definitely motivation to finish up what was an otherwise disappointing story (though an awesome game, MAKE ANOTHER NINTENDO!).

Macawmoses · March 05, 2009, 06:42:05 PM

Yeah, Peppy crashing in to the homeworld was pretty darn intense. I couldn't believe it.
