Comments on: Being A Super Mario Completist http://www.alannoah.com/2008/04/15/being-a-super-mario-completist/ What's on my mind today?

But there are just SO many Blue Coins that are SO annoying, I didn't have the patience to go for perfection in the game. For some of the coins you literally have to chase down blue birds and spray them. Yeah. In Galaxy on the other hand, finding the hidden stars never feels like a chore. And just to clarify, B.E. - I did get all 120 stars the first time around, it's the second time (to get 240 total) that will take me a long time to get around to.

I didn't know there was a "second quest" to SML. I love that game. It's the only original GB game I still play in my GBA SP (considering Tetris DX for Gameboy Color is better in every way). And I agree about Sunshine: WAAAAAY underrated game (one of my favorite Marios actually), but some of the blue coins were annoying.

I beat "Galaxy" and have something like 40 stars to go to get all 120, but honestly it's something I might get to over the years like yourself. I had no idea how deep your love of Mario went. I am afeared. To my knowledge I’ve never totally completed any Mario game ever.
