Some of you may be wondering why, after gushing about this game, I am not posting about it more. Two things (1) I am saving this, for the time being, as my "In Case of Emergency, Break Glass" game. This game makes me ridiculously happy. There's going to be a time in the near future where I am going to possibly need a HUGE pick-me-up. This game is being saved for that! (2) I am currently playing a game on the 3DS to correct a long standing "mistake" I've made over my years in gaming. I am on a good roll with regards to that "correction" and don't want to be distracted from my goal. I'll explain more on that later!  WinkWink

So this begs the question: If they lived next door to you and you were all kids, it would lead to the assumption that you would have to play together sometimes. If, then, they were the Mario Bros. would that make --YOU-- Butt Butt on occasion? I need to know this information now as it puts you into an entirely different light in my mind!

Nyaa

Sorry to disappoint, but no I was never Butt Butt. The kids were a little younger than me so I really didn't play with them that often. But they were a pair of spoiled brats and had a shitload of NES games. More than the rest of the kids in the neighborhood put together. So I'd be over there every few weeks, but as soon as they broke out Butt Butt, I'd go off to play with my more mature 5th grader friends.

The game will definitely give you a "pick me up" should the need arrive. I'm still amazed at all the little secrets that are in it. Just like the best NES games had.

Questions involving your medication really should be directed towards your physician, as none of us (except Steel) could offer an accurate opinion even based on any medical history you'd like to share...

And now that the smart ass answer is out of the way, the answer is yes. You can get medicine refills by visiting the giant tomato fish king (forgot his name) which is across from King Knight's stage. Or if you fish you may randomly catch one of those tomato fishes and they will refill a bottle with a randomly chosen potion.

I suck at pattern recognition. I just get so caught up in the moment.

So I beat another two bosses.

I cannot figure out how to buy anything in this game. I think I am in the midst of an "aspro moment".

I have not upgraded my health or weapons or anything, so I think I may be playing this game at a greater disadvantage than I should be.
