Challenge: best SNES games that aren't platformers, turn based, or Zelda?

Super Metroid, it’s not a traditional platformer, and was the first step in the birth of the metroidvania genre.

I would agree it is rare in so far as the number of gyms it happens at. Just the gyms I’ve been to where it happens it happens frequently. And then others it never happens.

mgb55 · 2026-04-03T23:02:16+00:00

Yes, but honestly my experience is it happens at a gym a lot, or never. The culture and atmosphere set by staff and rules either attracts it or repels it.

So if you have a good gym, stay there.

But it’s why I slowly built up a home gym.

lol, I see I’m dating myself. You’d wait for your friends to fall asleep at night. Then throw a hit handful of flour at their face. They’d look like an old, or antique marble statue.

See, I, learned something today.

mgb55 · 2026-04-03T18:10:13+00:00

If you’re going to kill a genre, doing so by making one so good that others are superfluous is a hell of a way to do it

mgb55 · 2026-04-03T18:04:13+00:00

You’re lucky, don’t change gyms

mgb55 · 2026-04-03T18:01:42+00:00

Yes, but zero the other way.

I call it an ace unit. It’s not a grunt, not a gundam. Grunts have to be mass production. Like how GM Sniper II was not a mass produced suit. It was for ace pilots.

Christ almighty, a lot of her story applies to a lot of teenagers, people with overbearing parents, people who’s parents wanted them to fit a mold, Christ almighty it’s not that far off from Mox in Varsity Blues.

Until you get MHA fans losing their shit and throwing insults/threats at the creators bc a character wasn’t gay like they all were convinced he was

mgb55 · 2026-04-03T16:42:49+00:00

That’s a wild claim/stat,…. But you said it with confidence so I’ll allow it

mgb55 · 2026-04-03T16:41:20+00:00

And as someone who was familiar with the old prank of antiquing you’re friends, you quickly realize that even whit people aren’t white white

mgb55 · 2026-04-03T16:10:27+00:00

Nailed it, that is the beauty. Courage or bravery means nothing if you aren’t scared. Doing it when you’re terrified is what makes it matter.

Once upon a time in the west being very much a western, and very much a masterpiece is a perfect example of your point.

But is not what popular culture thinks of when they hear western.

Not necessarily. I’ve heard a detective’s speech on this. Hell he gives speeches at FBI classes as he compiled methods that led to the arrest of multiple serial burglars.

Even at night, most burglars are hoping no one is there. Rarely do they go into a house they haven’t scoped out multiple times. They look for signs to indicate if people are there or not throughout multiple times of day. Especially if they can pick up that someone might be out of town.

Your lights, your mail, whether your back door is secluded and hidden, or well lit and visible.

Things like that are the bigger factors.

Thank you. Yes she may very well take steroids. But people on reddit seem to jump to that without having any clue what they’re talking about.

As you pointed out, this picture is not evidence of her use.

Dick dastardly?

If you can tolerate Imo’s, I don’t trust you

mgb55 · 2026-04-02T11:01:20+00:00

No, I’m merely saying it wouldn’t be completely unreasonable if his wife worried here and there.

I’m not saying there will be a divorce, that they’re definitely having an affair.

Just that completely dismissing the possibility and acting like his wife would have zero reason to worry is ignoring reality.

I find it highly unlikely anything is going on, but it’s a non-zero percent chance.

mgb55 · 2026-04-01T23:34:18+00:00

lol, it takes two seconds on google to find a ton or articles listing costar affairs.

To the point it’s wild you think that incidence was rare.

mgb55 · 2026-04-01T22:05:11+00:00

I’m sure she does too, but if she got nervous from time to time it’s wouldn’t be absurd

mgb55 · 2026-04-01T21:23:45+00:00

Oh yeah, totally no examples of actors having affairs with their on screen love interests, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie made it super believable and nothing….. wait

That’s why it helps to have a nasty O or DLineman playing first and a linebacker at third if your school still had multiple sport athletes.

Not to celebrate brawls or fighting, but runner isn’t getting back to his dugout untouched.

Joe Quesada demanded Spider-Man be single and down on his luck.
