raocow's talkhaus

Also I want to throw in my two cents and disagree with almost everything thatguyif has said regarding the remake being an improvement because I think it's worse in almost every change it makes. It removes so much of the charm of the original, and shoehorns in modern Nintendo's obnoxious hand-holdin...

There is one thing I forgot to mention in the Final Boss fight: The remake has you start first, always , giving you a chance to heal. Granted, that completely removes that particular challenge from the fight, but it was a dumb challenge to begin with. Anyway... So, I remember watching MyNameIsKaz/me...

Look, I was one of the testers for this game.

Okay, dude, whatever.

A disclosure here. Shortly before this game was released, the original ending of the game was changed to a different outcome, where Jerry and Jeremy create shields to escort Claire and Chao to safety. While this may be a preferable outcome in theory, the way this ending was executed felt quite inco...

I could understand people not being too keen on the ending. I personally thought that it was powerful in its own way, making me reminiscent of the Megaman Zero 4 ending that raocow showcased last year, but I still preferred and expected an epic and victorious ending. My problem with that is that MM...

Well, this be the FINAL list of remake notes: So, a thing worth mentioning that was a big quality of life improvement: If you die in boss fight in the remake, you're given the option of restarting at the beginning of the fight. You're also given the choice of restarting on Easy Mode, if the fight's ...

I just hope DT3: Epilogue doesn't take too long. That ending left a bad taste in my mouth :| I think the epilogue is worth watching even if you did not like how the story ended, at least for an episode or two to see what it involves. Regardless, I think that game series has gone on long enough.

It was 6 years later, not a decade.

Something weird I found while watching. During the Wendy fight, how did Luigi go from 60+ health to 0? Happened twice . It says he only took 36 damage each time, but it's like he lost twice as much health (while Mario lost the normal amount and got heavyweight status added to him). Luigi got hit tw...

Awww...you didn't go get the second special prize from Hammerhead Bros. :( Remake notes: So I didn't mention this before, but the item menu is much more organized. There are four tabs in the Item menu: The Mushroom contains regular consumables, the Bean contains Beans you've collected, the Bean Juic...

Oh dear, this is going to be a fun one to watch. This could be the finale, or it could be just before the final fight. Anyway, I finished both the main game and Bowser's Minions this morning. My thoughts on that below: Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser (aka Bowser's Minions) is...too simple and to...

So yeah, we're almost done. Remake notes: The attack from Bowser's Castle lasts a bit longer in the remake, and makes it rather explicit they're targeting the Nuclear Power Plant castle. So, even funnier: In the remake, Bowser's Castle is taped onto the World Map. As if they didn't know where else t...

So I somehow forgot the Popple segment. I'll still reveal the bit blivsey wanted to know about, after these short remake notes: So I didn't notice this until now, but Teehee Valley's theme switches to the underground theme when going underground in the remake. Finally, I get to explain Super Splash ...

She actually isn't in Bowser's Minions. The ONE character they could have fleshed out even a little, and they didn't? Why??? I think the reason has something to do with how they set up that particular area, story-wise. Again, I'll bring it up tomorrow since it involves stuff that'll be revealed (mo...

Hoo boy, long video. I expect a lot of remake notes: So Glurp is balanced out in the remake. You can hit him with the hammer for a bit more damage than 2. In one of the few moments where the original is better than the remake: Any time you screw up on those hair rollers, not only does the game reset...

And the discussion regarding how Piranha Bean drops only one of two items reminded me of something I was wondering about: Does Swing Bros. give you items beyond what you would've gotten anyway? When I played it felt as if it simply gave you early the item that would've been dropped at the end of th...

Oh boy, drama. This forum is not good at dealing with that, are we Also, referring to today's video: I think the real problem is the Mushroom Kingdom suffers from hyper-inflation the moment Princess Peach even steps across the border. It's as if she's the only person keeping that place from collapsi...

So, allow me to propose an idea here re: the music. I recall faintly playing this on Kega Fusion some years back, and I remembered something critical. The bulk of Sonic CD's music tracks are basically MP3/WAV files. That's how they function. The only tracks hardcoded into the game are the Past segme...

Also, why is the current thread title referencing the Cursed ROM Hack? raocow played it That doesn't mean we should mention it! There are more than enough ROM hacks left that we could've finished the game/thread without it, sheesh Remake notes, yay: As with the Chuckle Beans, Fruit Beans are easier...

Also, why is the current thread title referencing the Cursed ROM Hack?

The All Emeralds ending doesn't add any color to still frames. The only thing that occurs is Sonic goes Super after landing on the Tornado (if I recall this matter correctly). close, instead of falling, Sonic has already gone Super and is flying down on his own, and flies alongside the plane instea...

Making a fan club for a sapient species is kinda... Eh, not that different from Pokemon fan clubs. Anyhow...remake notes! Three of the theater posters in the lobby are changed to reference the four other Mario and Luigi games in the series. From left to right: Partners in Time, Bowser's Inside Stor...

Okay, to answer some points in the last video: You had other opportunities to hit that final boss. The part above his spiky hands is also vulnerable, which means you can hit him right after he does his stomp attack (since he lowers himself while doing so), and you can time your jumps for another hit...

yeah like during the day I got a fan and a window ac unit going, but I have to turn them off while recording because it pollutes my audio. Superstar being game number three means that by the time I get here I'm really sweating it. See about a cheap pc tower fan with low dB. I think he means a fan f...
