I STILL have way too many games!

Well, 6 years after my last post and I still have too many game that I have yet to finish. This blog is to help me keep track of my progress on them! (Spoilers. Duh.)

Beond the 1000 year dor is...tacky...

Eggplant and gold? really?

Anyways, I finished the Moon level today, and besides for a tricky section of platforming it was the shortest and easiest area yet I think. That was untill the boss fight.

For the most part the boss fight was pretty standard, not trick requirements like some, and then the boss used some vacuum thing to suck up about 20 NPC from the audience and shot them at Mario, each doing 5 damage! Needless to say that Mario's 35HP was gone in no time. The second time I went after the boss (after having to do the platforming area again) I shifted all of Mario's badges to health and defense, and put his partner in from for extra shielding. Even after all that I just barely managed to kill the boss after losing the partner and withstanding 3 audience pummeling.

And wouldn't you know it, the princess is in another castle! After finishing the boss Mario finds that the computer that helped Peach still had a little life left and helped Mario escape to go after Peach just before the moon base blew up.

There was no Peach segment after the chapter, but there was a short Bowser segment where he finally finds out about the 1000 year door and runs off to find it.

Back in town it turns out that the main bad guy had managed to sneak past the door with Peach without the star crystals and Mario now has to go in and save her. The progression beyond the door was going well, until for the first time in the game I got 3 poison mushrooms on the bonus game in a fight. The result I turns out is that half HP, FP, and stars go away, which didn't leave me in a very good position for the hard fights there!

So I'm going to take another stab at the door tomorrow and hopefully save Peach!
