That's basically me comparing Super Circuit to Crystal. Older stuff thrown in due to extra space and stroking the nostalgia boner, coming in rushed. I wasn't even thinking of the subparness of the "new" stuff until you brought up the point that Johto is far from the best region in Gen 2...<br />Fun fact: Because I'm arguably the only one who liked Super Circuit (nostalgia; one of the first video games I played), I tended to go to the website because I didn't know how to unlock those nostalgia-ridden, bare-bones courses (in my defense, I was very young and naive). You know how you need to get 100 coins, not mattering of place? The website said you needed to get an A rank, which it said could be gotten by a perfect 36. That's blatant misinformation you expect out of prima guides...Ness Prowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17515380966775058704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-63370039662182241472014-11-12T21:12:52.442-05:002014-11-12T21:12:52.442-05:00If you compare Johto to the original tracks in Sup...If you compare Johto to the original tracks in Super Circuit, you have a really good point.Slowflakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090675773915536700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-81035784922681831432014-11-12T18:39:41.269-05:002014-11-12T18:39:41.269-05:00Would that not make it the perfect comparison?...Would that not make it the perfect comparison?...Ness Prowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17515380966775058704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-7990886954573692762014-11-12T12:01:05.915-05:002014-11-12T12:01:05.915-05:00Johto was hardly spectacular either, mind you.

This is the FOURTH Mario Kart game it's in now, someone really hates us all.<br /><br />Then again, Donut Plains 3 was pure evil back then too, and it's fairly tame nowadays (unless you run crap traction like I do, then it's a bit more challenging).Slowflakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090675773915536700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-40148011091521008772014-11-11T20:22:03.592-05:002014-11-11T20:22:03.592-05:00Okay, because Mario Kart isn't my thing (and f...Okay, because Mario Kart isn't my thing (and from what I remember of both tracks, I didn't think either of them were that bad), which is the hard one, Wario's Gold Mine, or SNES Rainbow Road?Amaterasuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10346085218426132575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280492081721752941.post-85473836992051964352014-11-10T20:22:34.862-05:002014-11-10T20:22:34.862-05:00Maybe he'll get to be metalweight by virtue of...Maybe he'll get to be metalweight by virtue of that layer of chain mail?
