Ok, Ive been playing games since I was like 3, granted that means Ive only had 12 years of gaming, but thats plenty of time to experience those moments where I simply must put down the controller and pause to say.....What...The....F**k, and now I share them with you.


Moment number one: Mario riding Yoshi

When I was a young lad and only about 3 feet tall I remember playing my SNES hardcore until the depths of the night around 8 PM. Well on Super Mario World, after a couple levels I found myself riding a green dinosaur. Now I know this doesn't sound too weird to you all, but when your five you take time to give things a second guess. I put my controller down to assess the situation: I'm an Italian plumber in a place called "The Mushroom Kingdom", saving a princess from a turtle dinosaur thing named bowser, and I'm riding another green dinosaur who swallows things and shoots them back at the foe. Well I thought to myself "What the hell is going on here?", but its a game...anything goes.


Theres Mario, with a cape, riding a dinosaur with an extremely long tongue.

Moment number two: Mischief Makers

Soon I had graduated from my SNES days and had gotten an N64. My first game was Mischief Makers. The whole premise of the game is that your a cyborg named Melinda, who must save your master professor Theo, who has been kidnapped. The story isn't that crazy, but once you get into the game, your constantly saying to yourself, "What the hell is going on?"
Take for instance this video I uploaded, Marina (the big headed, green haired heroine) is riding a cat, jumping on missiles, catching missiles saying "shake shake!" and throwing them back. When you beat the boss, you finally rescue the professor, what do you do? The most obvious thing would be to take a plane ride back home, but Marina takes the liberty to throw her master miles and miles away. This gave me a good idea of an acid trip and showed me how weird the Japanese are.



Moment number three: Mystical ninja starring Goemon

I had very vague memories of this game when I was a child, and I didn't know the name of the game. So what I decided to do was search google images for "weird N64 game". Bingo, on the second page there was the cover of the game, the name..."Mystical ninja starring Goemon".
Well, all I really remember about this game is worm crawling on the floor. I probably don't remember it well because I had no idea what was going on when I was playing it, according to wikipedia, you're Goemon, a mystical ninja who "struggles to prevent the Peach Mountain Shoguns gang from turning Japan into a fine arts theatre"(Wikipedia). That still doesn't explain much. Here I've uploaded a video which really lets the WTF speak for itself.



Thats all the WTF-ness I have for now. I know theres only three moments but theres more in the future if this is received well, or I get more free time in the future, which is really probable.
