Mario Bros 2: The Lost Levels is totally ...

This topic is about the just released Mario Bros 2: The Lost Levels on the Nintendo Wii Virtua Console, played with the Classic Controller.
First of all let me make this clear:I love games that offer a challange.I also do not care that you warp back to level 1-1 everytime you go game over.But I do care that the controlls of this game are totally off!!!Like Super Mario World on the VC, running should be Y and jumping should be B, this way you can easily run and jump at the same time.But - god knows why - jumping is set on a and x, this makes it quite impossible to run and jump and the same time, which makes this game, at least for me, impossible to play.The lad porting this game to the VC probably has no game experience what so ever, and I think it's a real shame because the game itself rocks!Or am I the only one that holds down the run button constantly while playing Mario platform games?EDITx5: typo's and suchMario Bros 2: The Lost Levels is totally ...
Yeah...I usually don't run.Mario Bros 2: The Lost Levels is totally ...
I know what you're saying.. I tried to play Super Probotector (Contra) with the GC controller. The GC controller doesn't allow me to jump and shoot at the same time, which made it unplayable for me. Well.. not ''unplayable'' but a lot harder. The classic controller is perfect, though. I run a lot in Mario games, by the way.

Thanks for the warning.
And it ain't any better playing it with the Gamecube controller nor the Wiimote. :cry:

The japanese have a point about americans being whiny gamers. 'I don't like the wii remote cause the buttons are too small and close together'. Gimme a break, you clearly aren't old enough to have played with the original NES paddles with the sharp edges and just as small and close together buttons. If you're gonna whine about using the classic controller, just delete the game, it only costs 5 bucks so you didn't even pay enough to have a right to whine.
the wiimote on its side should be fine. You say you dont like it, but I bet you wont mind after you played it. Maybe you never had a NES? Because you're supposed to put the tip of your thumb on the B button (the 1 button on the wiimote), and then press A/button 2 by tilting your thumb onto it. Then, in places that require using A a lot but not B, just switch to the tip of your thumb on A. I'm guessing you know this, but I just had to say it in case you didn'tLost levels is a great game, I had it easy though, I played the All-Stars compliation pack for the SNES, and in that you could save by the level (and it had upgraded visuals :)).

[/QUOTE]I bought the game directly from Nintendo and paid the full price;
how does that give me not a right to ''whine''?And is it so strange to expect that they put the buttons correctly for the clas-sic controller?
ok.. i`m officially lost....Mario Bros 2: The Lost Levels was release for the VC-Wii??? this is just in jp, right? or was it also release in USA??Thx

Perhaps this is why I look down on many of the games developed by Japanese companies. I absolutely love first party nintendo games, but many conventions that can be found in PC games are completely unavailable.

just play it with the remote, it's far easier to control nes games like that rather than with theC controller

[/QUOTE] these are actually the ALL Star visuals, cos I had it too and it looks identicle
Why don't you just play it with the Wiimote?
