    He'd rather be chilled, in control
    To beat the games that have frustrated us all.
    He'd rather teach each single gamer
    How-to do the hard parts and still entertain us.
    He's the calmest gamer you've ever heard,
    He's the chilled out video game nerd.

  • @frankhughes6403
    @frankhughes6403 5 років тому +18

    If you're having difficulty on the Clinger Winger stage, just pause the game right as you're hitting a corner, press the d-pad in the new direction, and unpause. As long as you pause the game at the right moment, you'll hit the turn every time. It takes a little getting used to, but isn't too difficult, and is the only real option if you can't play the game on a CRT TV with an original console.

    The Bob Ross of gaming period. Though he does swear, but he swears with a sense of "well, i want to assume there's pressure and frustration" so it's not so intimidating more like the soft "dammit I screwed up, try it again". It works great. It also just shows that he's had that frustration too.

    The lollipop kicked my ass for so long. For whatever reason, maybe I was getting too close, but ramming it often resulted in me getting hit, too. I figured out that simply waiting for the lollipop and punching it is effective as well.
    Stage 11 was really difficult for me because when changing directions, I'd often slightly hit another direction at the same time, slowing me down. I realized this most often happened when I had to move to the left, so I had to take my thumb off the d-pad to make sure I didn't accidentally hit up or down as well. Of course, removing your thumb at all slows you down, so this stage killed my thumb. While practicing, I had to actually pause the game in the middle of the stage to give my thumb a break. If anyone else does this, make sure you're pushing the direction you need to be going before you unpause, otherwise you'll slow down briefly regardless of how fast you are.
    What a pain.
