It's interesting how easy some of these old games are these days. I found Marble Madness incredibly difficult growing up and it took me a long time to beat but I reached the final stage easily the other night.

I often go back to 8 and 16-bit games and find myself being better at some of them. I think it's because I have more patience these days, or maybe it's because I'm just better at games now? Which would be strange, seeing people tend to say they're worse at old games these days. For me, it's the opposite; I definitely have more patience and that makes me better at games. Luckily, my reflexes seem just as sharp as well. I'd destroy my teen self at Street Fighter 2.

Originally posted by Leon Retro View PostFor some reason, Marble Madness is a game I haven't played much over the years, but I do think it's a good game. The version I have strong memories of is the Amiga edition, which is a very close port. I watched Mike from AVGN play the NES version with a friend the other day and they, after much trial and error, completed it.

I think it is just patience, I got frustrated with games quite easily back then lol.

Of course, judging by YouTube retro gamers, it's uncommon to have more patience for old games when you're older.

I tried to play the original recently, but the draw distance was so short, I found it unplayable.
It left like wondering around a cave with a Zippo as your only light.
