!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I remember the first time I heard of Mario 3 was in Nintendo Power issue 6:

“Mario will be able to fly, using a racoon tail as a propeller. Trust us. We'll tell you everything as soon as we can. Keep reading Nintendo Power for the latest.”

At the time, I pictured him wearing a coonskin cap and flying that way.

I remember going to see The Wizard because it revealed Warp Whistle locations.

It showed one, right? checks scene

Yeah, Jimmy got the one in the first fortress. Savant or not, it never made sense to me he they knew there was one there right away, since he'd never played the game before.

Yeah, that's not a great plot; one might even go as far as to say that it's so bad.

It's not a great movie overall, but I find it endearing regardless!
