Hey FYI this video doesn't appear in the main feed. I usually watch on the Giant Bomb Video Buddy on iPad and this doesn't show up, I never would've seen it if I didn't come to the site.
I knew a kid in middle school who cried and said he would get his parents to sue Nintendo because he couldn't beat Luigi's Mansion. Every time someone at Giant Bomb complains about a game's unfairness without patience and a willingness to adapt to it I think of that story.
Mad respect for Humongous Entertainment representation on Giant Bomb! I think Jeff/old GameSpot/traditional games media people really underappreciate how great and influential those kid's games were, just because they were busy with more adult work.
This may be my biggest disappointment of 2018. Nickelodeon has such a good, varied roster of characters from the 80s to the 10s, and other Nicktoons games have actually had better representation (like the PS1 racing game or even the weird MLB game there's a quick look of on this very site)! Nintendo and Sega deserve some real competition. Too bad.
