Is Big Bully the most pathetic Mario boss ever?

[cheat-master30]

Well, as you can see with this slightly Mario 64 related poll, I want to know if you think this creature is the thing least worthy of being called a boss in a Mario game.

[kingbooforums]

first one to poll on this topic ya! anyway no i think the goop from smss was.

[cheat-master30]

I personally say the goop piranhas and Gilbert the Gooey in Yoshi's Island DS.

[NintenDan]

Bring back bosses like in DK64! They were cool bosses, as they were giant, and looked scary!

[cheat-master30]

And were they difficult or easy?

[NintenDan]

They rose in difficulty, like normal. They were fun, and the final boss is pretty hard, I still cannot beat it!

[cheat-master30]

Was the final boss King K Rool?

[_Cole_]

The one in MKDS was much more pathetic.

[cheat-master30]

So true, especially with just how quick you can smash it off the platform.

[NintenDan]

Yes, K. Rool was the final one. You had to fight him in a boxing arena, it was kind of weird, actually.

[cheat-master30]

I heard of that, and you had to fight with each character in order!

[one_eye]

K. Rool IMO, was the most awesomest boss ever.

Chunky Kong's part was easily the most difficult.

[cheat-master30]

And what did that require doing?

[NintenDan]

Well, jumping on a pad in the middle, avoiding an invisible K.Rool who's running everywhere, but he still leaves a shadow, so you know where he is... After the pad, Chunky barrels will appear. Hop in one to become "Big" Chunky, and then K.Rool will charge at you. You have to press Z and B to do a Mega Punch, and you have to time it at the right moment, or else you'll end up being punched! Complicated, yes...

[cheat-master30]

Oh well, at least complicated battles are more enjoyable than simple ones!

[Astr0]

I find Big Bully easier too beat than the little bullies.

[cheat-master30]

I find both ridiculously easy to beat. Still:

Chief Chilly > Big Bully

[NintenDan]

I have beaten DK64. Just not this game yet. By the way, I got all 201 bananas! Including the extra banana, which is why it's a weird number... It says on the game 201/200!

[cheat-master30]

Heh. I heard it was not the first DK game where you could get more than 100%, am I right?

[NintenDan]

I'm not sure. DKC3 probably had the same, as I don't remeber DKC or DKC2 having it. Then again, I don't think I ever won the game on them. Well, I didn't find all the bonuses...

[cheat-master30]

I remember though one of the games having more than 100%.

[NintenDan]

I dunno... DK64?

[cheat-master30]

I meant one that was NOT DK 64.

[caprontos]

i don't think he is.. as the first mario bosses u just jumped over them and they died... witch is alittle pathic but there are many bosses in Mario games that are simply to easy... Although i do agree i wouldn't consider him a boss.. maybe a miniboss

[cheat-master30]

True, as he is a bit commonly used for a boss, about the same as a mini boss would be. With Mario games though, it has always been about jumping on or over the bosses. Super Mario Bros 1 and 2 (Japan) and Super Mario Land had you jump over them, Super Mario Bros 3, World, Super Mario Land 2 had you jump on them. It is a bit too predictable sometimes though.

[caprontos]

yea and wasn't much else they could do but I was just saying :)

Bully didn't u have to knock him off a platform?

[cheat-master30]

Yep, that's him. At least with Chief Chilly you had to knock him off three times, this pathetic Bully Boss only had to be knocked off once!

[caprontos]

haha yea and alright

[cheat-master30]

Okay then.

[NintenDan]

SMB 2 had some different ways, like the crab boss. Most of the bosses for SMB 2 were throw objects at them.

[cheat-master30]

Yeah, but that was not really a true Mario game, even though many Mario enemies like Shy Guys, Snifits, Pokeys, Bob-ombs and the like appeared in later games. Note:

http://themushroomkingdom.net/smb2_ddp.shtml

[NintenDan]

Yeah, the whole doki doki panic game and that... That's interesting to know about. And it's also fun looking at the smiliarities of the characters and levels!

[cheat-master30]

Yep, as it is weird that many enemies from a pretty much non Mario game now feature in many of the Mario games.

[NintenDan]

Was Nintendo accused of stealing, or did they buy the rights to it?

[cheat-master30]

I think Nintendo made Doki Doki Panic in the first place.

[NintenDan]

Oh well, fair enough reason to make a "remake" of it.

[cheat-master30]

Oh, and do you know what is sad?

http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/ds/game/920758.html

In the Bestiary FAQ linked to from this page, the author actually said the Big Bully was two star difficulty for most characters and three star difficulty for Yoshi! How can the easiest Super Mario 64 DS boss be three star difficulty?

[NintenDan]

Obviously isn't that good against Big Bully, so he thinks it's hard for everyone else as well!

[cheat-master30]

So true, like strategy guide writers. If you use your own techniques, rather than ones other people give, you might find it easy for once!

[NintenDan]

Some people can write really good strategy guides, while others are completely hopless.

[cheat-master30]

True, but as people at the Gamefaqs Metroid Prime Hunters board said:

'Most guides are written by 2 star n00bs'.

[NintenDan]

Alright then.

[cheat-master30]

Yep, but this site is written by, in Mario Kart DS terms, a three star expert player (me).

[NintenDan]

And me, and me, and me...

[cheat-master30]

Yep, and how most people here are 1-3 star Mario Kart DS players.

[NintenDan]

Shows how multi-talented we are!

[cheat-master30]

Agreed, or multi Mario talented...

[NintenDan]

My guide for Mario Hoops is coming along swell. I finished off the characters and now I'm on to the courts, and what each one has to offer.

[cheat-master30]

Going to post it when you are finished?

[Symerwizkid22]

I'm a brand new member.
And don't worry,
I like to post...
a lot.

[cheat-master30]

That's great, although do you think Big Bully is pathetic? Oh, and you're in good company, myself, Nintendan, Caprontos and a few other members probably post just as much (over 200 posts in an hour is not uncommon).

[Symerwizkid22]

That's a little
too insane.

If you are annoyed
that I write like..
"this"
just tell me
an i'll
stop.BSkin}

[cheat-master30]

Okay, and no, I am not annoyed, as more active posters are really needed to compliment the 10 or so mega active members. And chill out, this is not Gamefaqs or Nsider, but a more relaxed place.

Haha.
I left the last forum I was at,
becuase they took it waaayyyy
too seriously.

And they banned me because I posted a thread titled
"Mii want Wii."

They thought it was too
"off topic"
for a room called the
"Water Cooler."

hahaha. I'm glad i left.FlyGuy|

[cheat-master30]

That sounds very much like Nsider. For some reason, as it would so be their mods that would do those things.

[Symerwizkid22]

the place was called
www.advancedmn.com/forums

there are some REAL bullies in there

"rogue_gamecube" is the worst... but you don't really careFlyGuy|

[cheat-master30]

Ouch. Still can't be as harsh as Nsider (no Editing until high rank, no pictures until high rank, no deleting until high rank, no external links in signatures, no RPs, no posting or so for first three days...)

But yeah, don't they know to upgrade their forum? vBulletin released 3.6.4 and 3.6.5 for a reason you know! To fix security exploits for one...

[Symerwizkid22]

VBulliten is wicked awesome!!

[cheat-master30]

It sure is! And the hacks are coolest, like arcades, and money systems, and stuff. Hell, I even saw forum e-mail account hacks, e-Bay like auction hacks and RPG battle hacks around.

[Symerwizkid22]

SHibby.

How do I check my reputation w/o looking at my posts and clicking on the blue drink??

[cheat-master30]

Go to:

http://dsultimate.net/Board/upload/usercp.php

And you will see the number above the last reputation received.

[NintenDan]

I might check my reputation as well. Just in case.

[NintenDan]

What's good? Having lots of reputation or having no reputation?

[cheat-master30]

Having a lot of reputation is good.

[Symerwizkid22]

Having a lot of reputation is good.

naturally.
Ezlo}

[cheat-master30]

Because reputation equals great.

haha i think you have the most except for someone I saw with an even weirder sign after four "Zelda health and energy" bars. I think it was Astr0??
Ezlo}

[cheat-master30]

Nope, not him.

[Symerwizkid22]

Nope, not him.

I didn;t think so.. but it was somebody.....

[cheat-master30]

I don't who has reputation near as high as mine though...

I know there was someone... maybe a past administrator [has there been any??]

[cheat-master30]

Lonestar is one, Caprontos was one. I'll check.

[Symerwizkid22]

it's alright.... i just know there was someone...

[cheat-master30]

Ah, it was Mojo, but the problem was fixed.

[Symerwizkid22]

Ah, it was Mojo, but the problem was fixed.

yeah... that's it haha.

[cheat-master30]

Well, he wanted his rep that high. And for the sake of back to the topic, who thinks that Chief Chilly should have all out replaced Big Bully in the DS version?

[Symerwizkid22]

DS version of what? I'm really confused, sorry.
=DD

[cheat-master30]

Of Super Mario 64 (Super Mario 64 DS), you're posting in the forum for it now.

[Symerwizkid22]

Of Super Mario 64 (Super Mario 64 DS), you're posting in the forum for it now.

haha i forgot... my bad.
Ezlo}

[cheat-master30]

Don't worry, easy mistake to make. But yeah, the original bosses that was larger versions of normal ones were very uninspired in the Nintendo 64 original game.

[Symerwizkid22]

ok. thanks.
lol
Ezlo}

[cheat-master30]

Okay... now back to the topic.

[Symerwizkid22]

haha big bully is a ***** [i inserted the stars... don't worry]

haha
Ezlo}

[cheat-master30]

Or more precisely, it is a pathetic waste of a boss.

[Symerwizkid22]

Or more precisely, it is a pathetic waste of a boss.

haha ya especially in MK} he is waaayyyy to easy.. almost as easy as he is in Super MArio 64.
Mario Kart has a lot of Super Maio 64 references like the rolling log from the fire course is in Bowser's Castle in MK} .... there are more... but I'm lazy right now and don't want to go find them:)

[cheat-master30]

And how all the characters are straight from there Super Mario 64 DS looks. That reminds me to say, all Mario Kart games draw heavily from the Mario adventure games of said platform, either in looks or content or likely both.

yeah but you kind of had to see the happening with all "sub-mario" games [mario baseball, soccer, kart, golf, etc...]

[cheat-master30]

I know. Mario characters have one set 'look' per generation of games, and all spin offs are generally based on it. Like how Gamecube was Mario Sunshine styled mainly.

"mainly"

haha ya i get your pint since you also have paper mario. haha
:)

[cheat-master30]

Paper Mario looks different because it is always paper themed.

[Symerwizkid22]

Paper Mario looks different because it is always paper themed.

durr. naturally... it was the only example i could think of.:)

[cheat-master30]

And Paper Mario 2 is way more paper themed than the original.

haha yeah..

the topic is "IS BIG BULLY THE MOST PATHETIC MARIO BOSS EVER."
^^wow do we get off-topic sometimes:):)

Meh, this board is pretty much a social one most of the time.

there's a problem cheatmaster.

when you changed the name of this thread "http://www.dsultimate.net/Board/upload/showthread.php?t=621"

only the title changed AFTER YOU CLICK IT.
can you try to make it so the actual stickied link is changed to say *OFFICIAL Diddy Kong Racing Character/Course Guide.


please??

[cheat-master30]

Done that.

[Symerwizkid22]

i know... but the link onto it hasn't changed... check out yourself in "other major series"

is there a way of fixing that??

[cheat-master30]

Not sure, I'll see.

[Symerwizkid22]

Ok thank you for double-checking...
it's very weird how the title itself changed,
but the link to it stayed the same.

Please don't be such a retard and go to the last page to bump the oldest thread you can find.

[kyledude92107]

Please don't flame members. <_<

But wow... Symer used to have horrendous grammar. >_>

[cheat-master30]

Oh, don't complain about grammar, and I really don't care if old topics get bumped. I want this to be a calm, pleasant forum where strict rules are only applied to things that matter (trolling and flaming, stolen content).

[kyledude92107]

I wasn't making fun of him or anything; I was just surprised at how much his grammar improved in his time here.

[Shadow64]

ive seen worse. such as bosses who don't attack and can be killed whit one hit or by touching them.

[cheat-master30]

Erm... who? I've seen bosses which don't move, those which can't hurt the character and yeah. Unless you mean bosses which are deliberately massively easy so you physically can't lose.

[cheatsguy777]

what would be funny was if you could recreate the level lethal lava land very realistically, the =n make the big bully start out easy, and when you knock it off, it jumps back up, takes out a machine gun, and the screen goes black. you then lose a life.

[zeldaclow345]

That wasn't cool.

Also, I like easy bosses. Gives me something to beat.

[Pyrobyte]

I like the bosses on the Metroid Prime games,now those are HARD,BIG,AND SOMETIMES SCARY.

[cheat-master30]

Not all of them are. Especially not the mini bosses Matrix Pyro.

[sonicluigi91]

I dont think he"s the easiest boss but he isnt much of achallenge either. I think he isn"t hard enough to be called a Boss.

[cheat-master30]

Considering Chill Bully is as easy, you have a point.

[CheatMasterLuigi]

Help me with codes

[64000DS]

The Mario Kart DS was easier for me.
