meh, that's not even impressive. Now lets see him beat the rest of the game blindfolded.

I used to be so good at SMB I probably could have pulled that off at one point with a little practice of it specifically.  SMB was my game, hardcore, for years.

I'm not a SMB guru and even I have pulled of the 1st board blind trick.

It should be said that the primary reason I played SMB so much was that I couldn't afford another game.   :laugh2:

Ahh.  Sorry for any nightmares that occur.

At least she doesn't attempt the "Triple Lindy"

I remember seeing this story a few days ago. I wasn't impressed either because I had just seen this (http://speeddemosarchive.com/Mario1.html).

This reminds me of my buddy. There is folk lore all over our area how he is the guy who can beat Mike Tyson's Punch Out!! with this eyes closed. The truth is, and I've witnessed this, he can only get to Tyson with his eyes closed. Tyson's pattern changes too much to win eyes closed, but still pretty impressive.
