It was a dark, cold, and windy Saturday night. I had nothing to do because my girlfriend was at a party and my friends all seemed to be busy, plus my brother was sleeping soundly in his bed, eliminating drum practice from my possibilites. I had spent most of the day on the computer writing, watching movie clips, listening to music, chatting on AIM, and just spacing out, so I definitely wanted to "power-down" for a bit. Then, I caught a glimpse of my N64 in the drum room.
Entranced, I waltzed over to it and, without thinking, popped in Super Smash Bros. Yes, the original Super Smash Bros. This continues to be one of the best video games of all time. I decided that if I was going to kill some time, I wouldn't just play several shorter matches, but one long match. I set the characters as Mario (me) versus Luigi (the computer player) and set the Lives as high as they could be in a stock match: 99.
Then, I edited the items so that only the Moon Sword (lightsaber) appeared, and then set the item appearance to "Very high." I selected Saffron City as the battleground, and after the countdown, the battle had begun.
I completely obliterated Luigi. Granted he was only level 7 (the maximum is 9), I ended up winning the match with 72 lives to spare. Out of all the times Luigi died, I got 91 kills, meaning that he had 8 errors (fell off by himself, blew himself up with a pokemon, stuff like that). The match took two hours (I spent about ten minutes using my phone and pausing it, but not much more), and when I was done, I couldn't believe how quickly the time went by.
