Epic Superstar Saga Adventure Part 5

Okay, so for some reason my emulator completely flipped out to the point where I had to reinstall it to get it to load the game properly (it kept automatically booting up my old game for some reason, without even showing the title screen or anything like that). It works now, which is good, but it set me way back to just before the Queen Bean battle. At least it isn't horribly far back or anything, but it's still annoying. Especially since this is actually like the second (third?) time its sent me back to that point for no reason, and I know I had saved after that battle since I get really OCD about saving games, and just argh.

Anyway, on with the screenshots!

Previously...





Making sure EVERYTHING IS SAVED THIS TIME
Anyway, when we last left off, we were told to go to Chucklehuck Woods and retrieve the Chuckola Reserve so we can feed it to Queen Bean and rid her of her Belly Blech worm issue. Reportedly, Chucklehuck Woods is just southwest of BeanBean Village. LET'S GO



But first, equips! Hahahaha whatever you say, equip lady








I'm detecting sarcasm



Oh wow, I didn't know Stache points could make the price go UP when you sell things. I thought you just got a discount when buying.







A few people I didn't get before, I think. God you guys that happened forever ago get up already



BEANIES THAT'S WHAT THOSE BEANTHINGS ARE CALLED. Also they can fly



Whenever I see these guys, I just can't stop thinking of Bert from Sesame Street.









Hahaha well that was easy.



And we're in! Chateau de Chucklehuck.





Soda sounds really good right now, actually.









WANT SODA



I do believe I've never seen so many barrels before in my lifetime.



WHY THERE SEEMS TO BE A MYSTERIOUS CAVERN AMONG THESE LARGE QUANTITIES OF CYLINDRICAL WOODEN CONTAINERS



doo dee doo



Hooray!



HEY WAIT A MINUTE






Man I would not feel comfortable walking and jumping on top of a bunch of horizontal barrels



MOVING ON




hahahaha



Ready for what? The boss fight, I guess?







GASP







INITIATING FRANTIC POSING














Battle Star: HEY I'M BACK. DID YOU MISS ME? HA HA HA



LET'S DO THIS. Rookie and Popple, which plays whenever you fight them.
watch out for when Popple scurries up and grins evilly, because...






it means he's gonna STEAL MUSHROOMS FROM YOU ADFGDDFLGK I FORGOT HE DID THAT



Also, if you try to attack Popple...





Bow-- I mean Rookie will barrage you with hammers. You can smack them away pretty easily, but it's still best to just avoid it



And just to rub his mushroom-stealing ways in your face, Popple will use the mushrooms he stole to HEAL ROOKIE and probably himself as well, though I didn't see him do that during this



HARMONY'S BRAIN BURNS AT A MEAN RATE








Awwwwwwwwwww
Anyway yeah, here's the Advanced Bro. Move thing that was mentioned a few episodes back. I finally looked it up, and to do an Advanced move you have to do a different button sequence than normal. For example, the normal button sequence for Mario's Splash Bros. attack is A,B, A, but the Advanced sequence is A, A, B. It DOES do extra damage, and will sometimes have an extra effect (Splash Bros. can steal an item, for example). I could write up a quick guide if you guys want.
Hahaha god, I can't believe I went all this time not knowing that. DUHHHHHHHHH I DON'T SEE ANY DIFFERENCE GUYS DERRRRRRRRRR



I'd laugh whenever I blocked Popple's mushroom-stealing attack. NOT TODAY, POPPLE. HAHAHAAHA




oh what the SCREW YOU







GAH





After jumping on him...




Wow that's the worst heartburn I've ever seen





He's supposed to be running off here but I don't think I captured that very well





WOAH I GOT +4 AWESOME















???????????????


















MANLY WHACK











QUICK AFTER THEM




Tete-a-tete?



WOO





I wonder what they do if you say no?




















SPROING



















I'm not sure why this shot makes me laugh so much







I wish I had a cola goblet.






AND PROCURE THEM I SHALL









ANYWAY LET'S DO THIS



The boing sound effect when Mario jumps is all high-pitched when he's little, haha




It looks like it's made out of jello.





CURSES, I CAN'T REACH IT



There was a button on the wall that I hit and I didn't get a shot lol



Come on Mario get over here





OOPS





Aww, shucks





BYE GUYS



Okay, NOW we're in Chucklehuck Woods. Chucklehuck Woods music, which is just a sped-up version of Chateau de Chucklehuck.





I HAVE SEEN THROUGH YOUR CLEVAR DISGUISE




WOOOOOO man I'm getting some really good levels. WATCH MY GAME SEND ME BACK TO THE QUEEN BEAN BATTLE NEXT TIME I START IT UP



Markin' the maaaappp



What a fine tile. I do believe I shall step on it.





OW



To put Luigi in a barrel you just whack him into the ground and have him pop up under it. That seems like an awful lot of trouble to go through just to put someone in a barrel if you ask me









Man how does that even work




I dunno about you, but my heart is definitely like an empty barrel.



SPEAR IN MY HEAD





Fuzzbush spits out Fuzzies! You fought those in Paper Mario.





THESE POEMS AREN'T MUCH FOR SUBTLETY, ARE THEY



Chuck Guys can call up other Chuck Guys. I guess there weren't any around, this time?







Anyway, enough screwing around.














Well, you heard the man.




Basically, if the Mario Bros. are apart, you can press Start to switch between them.



Case in point!




AAAAAA RUN AAAAAAAAAAAAA



HOORAY




Man these levels are awesome



SO DID I OVERLEVEL LUIGI'S POWER STAT Y/N



That little bow never ceases to amuse me.













Beans are actually useful for a fun little easter egg later on. YOU'LL SEE







Farewell, strange ladytree.





REMEMBER: WHENEVER YOU COME ACROSS AN UNKNOWN ANIMAL-LIKE CREATURE, BE SURE TO JUMP ON IT









Mario: WTF AAAAAAAAAAAA



buh



OSHI--





Battle Star: HEY WE SHOULD HANG OUT SOMETIME, GO GET SOME LUNCH. WE NEVER TALK ANYMORE.



Angrypillar. I think in this mode its attack and defence are higher, but I don't know for sure.




AUGH OW



If you jump on all its... whatever those are called and turn them all yellow, then the caterpillar is HAPPY! And then is the best time to attack. I recommend using Bros. Attacks, since once you hit the caterpillar's head, it turns angry again. For some reason I didn't even think to use a Bros. Attack until a little later, so this battle went on longer than it should've.



AT LEAST I GET TO SHOW YOU LUIGI'S MUSHROOM-EATING ANIMATION





Good, good.





Hoohah!



GOLDEN BEANIE. The jerk ran off before I could kill it. It's really rare, gives you tons of experience and coins, and a badge. They run off if they lose 3/4 of their HP, though.



I WENT THROUGH A CAVE ETC







For some reason I always think you have to fight him after you give him the fruits. I don't know why.




ACK







OOOOOOO I'LL GET YOU GUYS



I like the lighting














STOP WRITING POETRY










haha what




And man jesus how can you come up with enough jokes to last 1,000 years? I know he's the ultimate comedian and all but MAN. I can't even come up with one good joke in five minutes.











Thank you, Rookie.










OW THE NEON PINK MAKES ME LAUGH AND BURNS MY EYES AT THE SAME TIME









Battle Star: HEY DO THESE PANTS MAKE ME LOOK FAT? HAHAHA JOKES!!! I DON'T WEAR PANTS




I was jumping on him in this shot but for some reason Mario disappeared. ANYWAY YEAH jumping doesn't work on it. Neither do Bros. Attacks (except for Chopper Bros. and Knockback Bros., I think, but I didn't use those for some reason). So you just have to hammer the living crap out of it.



THANKS TO LUIGI'S AMAZING POWER, HOWEVER, THIS ISN'T A HUGE ISSUE





Curse you and your corny jokes, Bubbles.






STOP THAT






COME ON LUIGI GET WITH THE PROGRAM
















Thats gotta hurt.



And so, Luigi sets off to find his brother on his own. Thankfully, his HERCULEAN STRENGTH enables him to take care of himself quite ably!




EXCEPT I'M A RETARD AND GET HIM POISONED IMMEDIATELY OF COURSE




by jove there appears to be something jostling about in this barrel












flop








hahahahahaaaa




Oh, guards.










EEEEEWWWWWWWWWWW






It looks just like Popple






AGH I'M BLIND





HOORAY SHE'S BACK









Hahaha this always cracks me up. She'll occasionally just leap into the air and make everyone jump and the screen rumble when she lands. And she always does it at the most random moments, too.


















THIS SEEMS LIKE KIND OF AN INAPPROPRIATE TIME TO BE LAUGHING, YOUR MAJESTY










Hahahahahahahaaaahaha



ON A SECRET MISSION OF COURSE






I imagine this being said in a somewhat sardonic tone of voice





WOOO



AUUUUGGHH














WHAT










OW BYE









Thank you, guards.
So what's gonna happen? WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN????? TUNE IN NEXT TIME!


Sorry these are coming along so slowly. I'll try and speed 'em up if I can.

gah i really need to finish this drawing

Yeek! Have you tried copying the save files to other places so you can copy them back into the folder if anything happens? That's really frustrating, I know.

Work pants are HIGH FASHION. XD

Right now I'm guessing you have to find someone to tell the jokes. :O With the comment about the quality of them and all.

Hahaha how is it even possible to stack them up like that.

LOL his face! GRRRRRR

But, but it looks like they have the fruits right there. :O Why can't they brew it?

Hahaahaha hitting him again makes him normal. XD

Learn hammer techniques, get two of the kingdom's greatest treasures. SOUNDS FAIR. :D

...So can you hit stuff on the wall? What happens if you do?

Wait but weren't there Chuckola fruit in the building anyway? :O Or I guess those were different, since they don't look red, white, or purple. But what ARE they, then?

Wow, Beans live a long time. :O

HOLY CRAP I think he let it mature a little too long there.

Yay, Peasley! :D I love how they're all, *wave frantically*. XD HIIII

Hahhahaha their little "astonishment!" faces are so cute.

*tries not to snicker at WooHoo Hooniversity, despite the Sims 2 thing*

What I don't get is why they wouldn't use the Beanstar immediately. They already have the voice, so you'd think that as soon as they got it, they'd use it. Is it a stupid-villain thing?

I played that game, but the game was a fake off of Ebay, ( from Hong Kong if you want to know ) so your saved file gets deleted everytime you turn off the gameboy. D:

[identity profile] doxinator.livejournal.com 2007-05-31 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
HEY DID THE MUSIC SLOW DOWN JUST NOW OR IS IT JUST ME

[identity profile] doxinator.livejournal.com 2007-05-31 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
That's a good idea, I haven't tried that yet :O I have been making save states, though, which seems to be working pretty well.

Hahaha, I was wondering the same thing about the fruits. I GUESS THEY JUST AREN'T THE RIGHT KIND. OR SOMETHING.

HAHAHA YES SOMEONE ELSE NOTICED THAT ABOUT WOOHOO UNIVERSITY I can't believe I forgot to mention that in this :B I couldn't stop giggling the whole time I was there.

GOOD POINT :O They might explain it later, but I honestly can't remember. HMMMMMMMM

[identity profile] doxinator.livejournal.com 2007-05-31 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
Aww man, that really sucks D: It at least wasn't real expensive or anything, was it?

[identity profile] captain-charla.livejournal.com 2007-05-31 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
It was only $7. xDD

Usually the fakes work, and save properly, but it's always a risk to buy one. xD

[identity profile] melaniedavidson.livejournal.com 2007-05-31 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
:O Mainly I just save multiple times, in multiple slots... usually three. One, you can accidently save over, two is probably safe but three is safer.

WOOHOO UNIVERSITY I THINK I READ A FIC LIKE THAT ONCE XD hee hee.

I hope they do; I hate when they just ignore stuff like that. :O Even a silly/unlikely explanation is way better than none at all, because then you know they didn't just... not think about it.

Am I to late for the party?

BUBBLES :D
Yay puns. I wanna be just like him when I grow up!
You know. A bean.
