wishwashing made this for me. Peasley is awesome.
Speaking of Peasley, hows about another episode of Superstar Saga? Its been a little while since I've done this. I'LL TRY SPEEDING THINGS UP INDEED. This time, though, I actually have an excuse. See, I found out that if I exit my emulator and come back later without moving the old screenshots to a different folder, then the emulator will just save over the old screenshots when I try to take new ones. I actually only found out about it today, so as you can probably guess, I wound up accidentally saving over pretty much all of the WooHoo University screenshots. Shortly after finding out about that, I find out that I had already overwritten the old save state with a new one (which is in the next world), and didn't have any others because I never really thought I'd need multiple save states. Good job thinking ahead, self.
SO BASICALLY WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY HERE IS THAT I KIND OF HAD TO START OVER (on a new file, of course) AND PLAY UP TO THAT PART SO I COULD GET THE STUPID SHOTS. I could've taken the easy way out and just told you what everyone said/what happened, except not only would that not have the same effect, but there's a lot more I wanna share with you guys other than who says what. If that were the case, I wouldn't bother making these at all and would just link you guys to a script.
ANYWAY yeah I'm just glad this wasn't too far in the game. Gotta make sure to make multiple save states next time!
On a side note, this song is ridiculously catchy. I listened to it for the majority of the time it took to replay the game. SOMETHING TELLS ME IT ISN'T EXACTLY APPROPRIATE MARIO-PLAYING MUSIC, BUT IT PASSED THE TIME NONETHELESS
blah blah blah blah LET'S BEGIN.
Previous episodes
LOOKS LIKE A FRIENDLY PLACE apparently I didn't get a shot of the front.
WooHoo University theme! Hooniversity. Whatever. AND I MEANT TO MENTION THIS IN THE LAST EPISODE BUT LOL WOOHOO. Sims 2 has forever colored that word for me.
Hahaha I like how Mario is just completely calm. STANDARD PROCEDURE, NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY
HAHA
Well that was of mild interest
boing boing
nod nod
He starts shaking, here. HMMMM WHAT COULD BE HAPPENING
LASER SHEET wait no
These things shoot these laser ring things at you. If they stand at a bit of a distance (like in these shots) that means they're going to shoot a ring in the air and you have to jump, but if they're all UP IN YO FACE then they shoot it in the ground and you can just stand there. Yes.
BING
This room reminds me of the cafeteria at Disney Land for some reason. And the Buzz Lightyear laser adventure ride thing. I remember not even really trying that hard to shoot things and just spinning around in circles for no reason. What was I talking about
BONK THE ACTION BLOCK! BONK IT NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!
HOLY CRAP, DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?!
WE'RE BEING CHASED BY GHOSTS!
Hahaha Yo Bro. He just spins yoyos all over the place. WHAT A LOSER
Laser Snifit, that's what it's called!
You run into these little Virus things (Blue Virus, Red Virus, Yellow Virus), and when you hit them they change color. If they're all the same color, they disappear. dr mario, derp derp
First one is how it is, second one is what you change it to.
Dum dee dum whacking statues with hammers
After a while of statue-whacking.
In the game it shows all of them disappearing one by one BUT EH THIS IS FINE YOU GET THE DRIFT
Moving on, this room is basically one big mini*Mario and underground*Luigi puzzle.
DUHHHHHH TAKING SCREENSHOTS INSTEAD OF FOCUSING. Anyway blocks just fly by at varying speeds and you bonk them and stuff.
whoop
THERE WE GO why do I get the controls all mixed up when I play this
woo open gates wooooooooooo
BLAH BLAH EVENTUALLY YOU GET IN A BARREL AND HIT A SWITCH YADDA YADDA
Into the new room! HMMM THAT TILE LOOKS SUSPICIOUS
OW
That's our cue to hunt for barrels
I can't even remember what I did to lower the spikes, anymore. WHATEVER, WORKS FOR ME
Inside the room the spikes were guarding. It makes me think of a mix between Pacman and those mouse maze things.
SCORE
Will this work? Wiiiiilllllll iiiiiiitttttttttt
NOPE
I hit a button... somewhere, and it made that second barrel come BARRELING DOWN lol
LUIGI NOOOOOOOOO
man what is it with luigi and getting kidnapped by cranes
NEXT ROOM... SOMEWHEEEEERE
halp
I'LL SAVE YOU LUIGI
on a side note DONKEY KONG, ANYONE? be sure to take careful note of how luigi is playing the role of pauline here
okay i've got you everything will be--
HEY
hahaha Mario is just as confused as the rest of us. What kind of a crane is this anyway
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
hahaha i like how his little feet are sticking out
ALLEY OOP
BAM thats gotta hurt
WHO KNEW LUIGI'S BARREL ADVENTURE WOULD SAVE THE DAY
Mario sort of drops out of nowhere. Haha, that was fast.
Aww
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OH MY GOD
I have no idea what caused this, but I somehow managed to find an exit and when I left and came back it was all normal. Weird.
I keep getting distracted by this weird anime on TV. BUT I MUST PRESS ON!
And for causing convenient electrical malfunctions
Just one Action Block to go.
And there it is!
YAHHHHHH
hay what's goin on over here
OH NO WE GOTTA HURRY
CUE WACKY MUSIC
Something about the perspective here keeps confusing me. I think it's how the sprites are positioned.
Nope!
SERVED
*Godzilla roar*
Cackletta's battle music, which I really like for some reason.
Cackletta sends out these mysterious warp hole THINGS that you have to jump over. They have kind of a strange way of moving (they sorta pause just before reaching your character), though if you get the rhythm down then they aren't too big of a problem.
However, if you fall in them...
...you get THIS annoying little status ailment, that basically just makes it harder to jump and dodge and stuff. If I remember right then it also makes you move faster when you come down from a jump, so it makes it harder to do Action Commands properly. I'm not sure about that, though. MY MEMORY IS SO FAULTY
Lightning attack! If Cackletta raises her left arm (our left) then she shoots lightning at Mario THEN Luigi and vice versa, and then if she raises both arms she shoots lightning at them simultaniously. Ayup.
THE WEIGHT AILMENT DIDN'T SERVE YOU WELL, DID IT LUIGI
OH WELL, AT LEAST NOW I GET TO SHOW YOU THE CAVITY-INDUCING REVIVAL ANIMATION using a 1-Up Mushroom here by the way
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA THAT FACE OH MY GOD
MUST SAVE LUIGI AHDFGUAIDFHGAIDHGF
TWIRL, TWIRL IN CELEBRATION AS YOU ARE ONCE AGAIN WELCOMED INTO THE STALWART ARMS OF LIFE
good day sir pip pip
So endearing. There's actually another aspect of the "omg a brother is unconscious" sequence that's really charming but I didn't get it here. Maybe next time!
Argh, I hate this. There's no way to tell which one is the real Cackletta as far as I know, so you have to just guess.
And if you hit the wrong one...
Then the fake one will turn into a bunch of bats, which you'll have to jump over. BATLETTA. There's also a chance of getting poisoned if you're hit, as you can see here.
I've got you now!
HEY STOP DOING THAT
Yes, sometimes she'll just up and do the whole "which one is the real me lol" thing right after you solve the last one. I remember once I was battling her and I swear I went through at least like five rounds of that thing in a row it was so annoying
ACTUALLY YOU KIND OF SEEM TO HAVE PROVEN QUITE SUFFICIENTLY THAT NO, NO YOU ARE NOT
Those goshdarn holes
One Bros. Attack later...
Wooo! 1-Up Supers not only revive a character, but also fully restore their HP. I usually stock up on them for emergency situations.
Mole*Fawful? But I thought only Mario could molinate people
"No we're fine thanks"
"No really can't we just talk or something"
GASP
WHO COULD THAT MYSTERIOUS MAN BE
Hahahahha what a bizarre shot
TADAAAAHHHHHH SEE MY PREDICTION THAT HE WAS GOING TO SAVE US AT SOME POINT WAS RIGHT WHAT DID I TELL YOU
He hacked and slashed a lot more than this but I'm lazy
TEAM ROCKET'S BLASTING OFF AGAAAAAAAAIIIIIIiiiiiiiinnnn
"WHAT"
*bubble pipe*
Tooooooooooooooooooooooooo the basementmnobmadfl
damn Mecha-Chomps. Always chomping around like they OWN THE PLACE
HURRAH
YOU
hi guys snort
HI
THEN WHY IS IT SO ~*HILARIOUS*~
Hahahahaha. THIS IS VERY RESPECTFUL BUSINESS
After some battling. Their attacks haven't changed at all except for this, I think
dude ow
YOU CALL THAT A SPLASH ATTACK
SHOW THEM WHAT A REAL SPLASH ATTACK LOOKS LIKE MAGIKARP
OH GOD THIS WONT END WELL
OH JESUS CHRIST
Hahahhahaa great idea guys. LET'S ALL GET ON THE RAGING LEGENDARY ARTIFACT WITH OTHERWORLDLY POWERS
TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH
the explosion makes me think of pudding
AND SO THE BEANSTAR PIECES GRACEFULLY FALL TOWARDS THE EARTH, AND SOMEWHERE OUT THERE A HUNCHED OVER NERD BREATHES A SIGH OF RELIEF AT HAVING FINALLY FINISHED AN OVERLY LONG LIVEJOURNAL ENTRY THAT HAD BEEN NAGGING ON THEIR BRAIN FOR FAR TOO LONG
TO BE CONTINUED
Man you would not believe the storm we got caught in earlier. We were caught right when it was as vicious as possible, so there was this howling wind and lightning and pouring rain and hail and you like couldn't see anything in front of you and just man. MAN.

References to previous games FTW!
>Want to try again?
NOPE, I'LL JUST SIT HERE FOREVER.
IMPORTANT TO THE PEASLEY/LUIGI SHIP YOU MEAN? :D
Crane: *dangle dangle dangle* NOPE too slow!
That is some amazing rolling there. The way it turns a corner to avoid going off the edge, I mean. I'm thinking magnets.
Peachbots wtf. I THINK THIS IS UNNECESSARILY COMPLICATED and also I thought she was just going to... have her voice. Like in the Disney version of The Little Mermaid, where Ursula speaks with Ariel's voice. and why does she need three. This seems highly suspect. I have horrid mental images concerning this now. D:
They are so, so cute. :D
Cackletta's like those people who, when they're losing an argument, suddenly have to go leave for their trip to Spain/go out with their significant other/do something that proves they have a life! Really! And they simply don't have time for silly internet arguing! And then they're back five minutes later, defending themselves again.
WHEE AWESOME :D and he just, like, smacks him down. :D
Oh GOOD, so there's going to be an explanation for that. I bet it's because it was from robots. Close enough to wake it, but not close enough to work properly.
Yeah, especially since last time it stopped flying very quickly and just fell down. :B I mean, I wouldn't want to be on it at that point. I'd rather just see where it landed.
WHEE that was great. :D

POSSIBLY
SOME STUFF WILL BE EXPLAINED IN THE NEXT ONE DON'T WORRY though now I can't remember if they ever explain why she used three Peachbots. Hmmmmm
Hahhahaha now I've got this great mental image of Cackletta just getting in this huge flamewar with someone. I bet she'd be one of those people who writes e-mails about how they're too busy to write e-mails.
Hahaha seriously. WAY TO GO GUYS
