That was pretty fun. The whip guy's jump was annoying, and Megaman and Samus Aran kinda sucked, but the buffed up guy with the gun and Link were cool. Mario's just Mario.

Well, that's an interesting idea.
Dunno about good idea, but certainly interesting.

I never implied that it was good. Just interesting.

Symphony of the Night? Bah, anime inspired crap, I say. Try either
Castlevania or
Simon's Quest.

Yeah I played a few of them, they're particularly abysmal and boring games.

I can respect that opinion. In a way, it's an acquired taste. It was revolutionary gameplay for its time, but the series itself quickly devolved, and anyone who picks up the good games now will see them as a bit archaic.

Well I like them.
You may have noticed I never complained about "the buff guy with the gun". That's because I always called him Contraman.
Personally if I want replay value, I just play Mario games again but without powerups. Because I enjoy giving myself challenges even if they're way too difficult for me. Which is odd because I hate playing on the hardest difficulty on normal games...

Invertin, I never said anything bad about the earlier Castlevania games, other than others may call them archaic. They still hold a place in my gaming heart, along with the impossibility that is Battletoads.
In terms of "Contraman," apparently his name is Bill...and he does rip up Super Mario Bros. However, it's offset by the fact that it's really hard to control him in midair and I found myself dying a lot while trying to land on small platforms.
And yeah, that last idea there could work, but this is an interesting take on it, as well.
