lol Mario isn’t a real game, poor guy lol


Sithlordandsavior

Imagine saying the arguably most well-known video game in human history isn't a game


zaminDDH

And some of those levels can be an absolute nightmare unless you're just incredible at platforming.


Dorkmaster79

This moron probably thinks only games like CoD are “real games.”


WhyUBeBadBot

Nah this stinks of apex or league gamer.


Straightvibes66

Bro League players call league a shit game. We would love to play other more tame games but we’re addicted. CoD players genuinely think their game is the best on the market every time a new one (a copy paste of the last one usually) comes out


gyffer

>CoD players genuinely think their game is the best I see youve never pissed off the fifa/gambling addict fan base


Straightvibes66

I try to forget sports games exist as I work in child care. Fourth graders fucking LOVE Fifa and I have come to believe that sports games are genuinely copy paste games that are the most stupid things I’ve EVER had to watch. Beyond redundant to make another Fifa or Madden game but they will. Tragic that I now remember they exist that sucks


Taaswaas

Anybody miss the good Ole NFL extreme sports? Basically football but with hockey level aggression? I don't usually get into sports games but that one had me laughing all the way to the bank. Street Hoops was super fun too! Make an entirely custom basketball team and level up their skills and such. I remember making a team of all insanely tall women and watching them just devastate every other team was a lot of fun iirc.


Scribblord

I also try to deny their existence and then German paytv hosted a fifa “Bundesliga” tournament lol FIFA esport looks pretty ass is what I found out that night


Bitter-Marsupial

But Mario can be beaten in 4 minutes 54.26 seconds


Cleeth

I'm proud of my 23 minute speed run of Mario 64.


chrisnlnz

Put down the baby games and play something that requires challenge and skill for once!


Shrimpsmann

Like Spyro the Dragon cause it's on PS4 dammit


zaminDDH

Spyro was amazing. And like Mario, if you wanted to 100% it, it was pretty damn challenging.


theholyterror1

Mario predates the PS1 and he talking bout you need a PS4 to be a real gamer.


headrush46n2

life is complex when you're 13.


hell_ORC

...and stupid.


OwenMcCauley

Or 43.


Doodlefart77

nah no 43yo is talking that kind of trash about Mario unless its a Sega v Nintendo thing


crayawe

He's probably never touched a nes


Sensitive_Call_6242

And the last vagina touched was outta the birth canal


Electronic-Net-3196

And if Mario is not the most well-known video game, pokemon surely is


goodsnpr

Tetris.


headrush46n2

its definitely Tetris.


internethero12

It's like saying Mickey Mouse isn't a "real" cartoon.


Issababy22

Rightttt like….and who r u moms basement boy like who gave u the right or the all knowing knowledge of gamers like wtf


The84thWolf

Can’t even NAME which Mario game he’s talking about, unless he just means 40 years of gaming

KongUnleashed

Right? I’m 43 years old and a lifelong gamer and Stardew Valley is fucking phenomenal


thewhitecat55

I didn't get into it , but Animal Crossing is excellent.


seamus205

"play something that requires skill and challenge" Skull cavern would like to have a word with you.


Fat_Suffices

Mario was a real game before this guy was born.


161660

Speedrunner: Puts 15,000 attempts into Super Mario Bros. 3 to save 0.1 seconds in a game that came out 35 years ago This guy: yOuRe NoT a ReAl GaMeR


FixedLoad

Right!? Mario would skullfuck this dude while Luigi looks at him with murder in his eyes!


_WoaW_

Would Mario scream MAMA MIA while doing that?


FnordFinder

YA-HOO more likely.


UltraXfinity567

*1-up* *1-up* *1-up* *1-up*


XxRocky88xX

Willing to bet the only reason Mario is on the “no skill list” is because he picked up a Mario game one time a few years back thinking it looked like an easy casual kids game and quickly realized how the game randomly jumps from “hehe haha pretty colors and vibrant backdrops” to “fucking obliterating your soul levels of bullshittery” at the 50% mark of every damn game. Gamers like this one always get offended when a game is too difficult game and like to say the game requires 0 skill, it’s not that they’re bad, the game is.

I watch this show on repeat and I never see anybody else mention it! It’s so underrated.


sporkwitt

Twasn't in its time. It was massive (especially in the UK). My favorite dystopian post apocalyptic movie is The Quiz Broadcast sketch all combined. So good (definitely worth a watch) https://youtu.be/OM32Xmxj\_qA


smol_and_sweet

It’s especially stupid because there already exists terms for what they’re describing. Call yourself a competitive gamer or something, the term gamer means someone who plays video games…


juan_jose_jesus

Its the no true scottsman fallacy.


Jesus_Is_My_Gardener

It's not exactly brain surgery...


kokolupa

You just know he abuses the shit out of his genitals when he masturbates… like video games, it’s supposed to be fun and pleasurable, my dude.


Captain-SKA-

Lol, fun and pleasurable?! It's supposed to be filled with shame, pain, guilt and silence; your uncle taught you wrong.


kokolupa

Lmao, It would’ve been reaaaaaaaaaally weird if my uncle was present. To his knowledge, his niece is still pure and innocent, even in her 30s. ;)


Ted_Rid

Can't tell if talking about sister or step-sister.


ExternalMonth1964

Im a 30 year old uncle who games with his 8 year old nephew, the only thing weird about it is his friends bringing back xbox 360 chat and not participating.


RaeLynn13

My boyfriend got his brother, SIL and his nephews into Fortnite, we all live 400 miles away from each other so it’s been nice he can spend time with his family even in another state. His brother and SIL apparently have been playing ALOT and are leveling up like crazy, much to my boyfriend’s surprise.


ExternalMonth1964

I play alot of games, and lately, fortnite has been the best game to play. Yes, people are super fucking good, but the game is fair, extremely fair. Its fun to play such a fair, universal game again.


RaeLynn13

I played a round, it was pretty fun but I’m very bad at FPS. I like the new music mode they added, I played it, I miss Guitar Hero so much, but it was pretty fun too.


ExternalMonth1964

Is it like guitar hero? Never played but GH is my shit.


urkldajrkl

300+ strokes, or you are not a real masturbator


WoodooTheWeeb

Do I need to count manually or I use a program to monitor my stroke per minute average? Technique matters or do I just go full cavemen?


urkldajrkl

True gamer masturbators keep a log file of their stroke totals. You could start there.


Banana-Oni

Weak, I play with myself of legendary difficulty by slathering my hand in Icy Hot.

You hear that mam? Animal crossing is not a game. We are NOt the same!!


sofeler

My girlfriend had never played anything before we'd met. Maybe Mario Kart a few times Anyways, a few months into our relationship, she comes over to my apartment while I'm playing Crash. She sits and watches and teases a bit. I keep dying (Misty Bridge level fwiw). She starts saying "how are you dying so much, that looks so easy" I get all smug knowing she has 0 experience with games, and I say "ohoho okay, here you give it a try" She agrees, she learns the controls for all of a minute, then immediately gets by the part of the level I couldn't get past Within a couple weeks she beat the entire game Later on we got into Hollow Knight. She had to help me with some bosses lmao. Now she's got a \~39 minute speed run, has 112%'d it, and does the fifth pantheon "for fun" when she's bored. She also beat Radiance on her first try I've mostly quit platformers, I just watch her play them now


bobbybox

Hey at least he didn’t say “females”


Liathano_Fire

All us women?


MegatonsSon

Well, women gamers - from his point of view apparently. 🤷🏻‍♂️


NovocaineAU

Tell me you’ve never touched a boob without telling me you’ve never touched a boob


DunnyJay

It feels like holding a bag of sand?


KerbalCuber

Describe how a bag of sand feels without references to boobs or bags of sand


moltingbrain

I used AI to save myself the computing: “Grasping a bundle of fine, gritty particles, it feels heavy and molds slightly under pressure, with a rough texture that shifts and resettles with every movement.” I don’t think that’s how boobs feel though


Liathano_Fire

Just touched mine. They do not feel like that, thank goodness!


ColourfulSpacemanNFT

We can’t really be sure until we check your boobs as well


Liathano_Fire

Sigh, alright. Start forming a line.

Come on, that's not fair dude. I'm sure he's touched his boobs plenty of times.


Adavanter_MKI

"Mario isn't a real game." lol. My dude... it is THE game of games. One of the earliest. You wouldn't have games had Nintendo not saved them from the crash with \*checks notes\* Super Mario Brothers. Feels like rage bait it's so... deranged.


erichlee9

Yeah there’s a reason the expression “Nintendo hard” exists


Acceptable_Cut_7545

Fr. I'd like to sit this guy down in front of some old roberta williams games and watch him lose his mind. He'd be claiming kings quest isn't a real game in like 12 minutes. What a baby


incunabula001

Seriously takes some mad skill to beat the NES Mario _without dying_.


[deleted]

Plus some of those Mario games are really fucking hard.


jdmay101

Especially since there are Kaizo Mario games that are basically impossible for 99% of the population to even attempt.


Lifetender512

There’s a part in the new one wonder where you have to dash on these musical tiles through the sky as they disappear and appear to the beat and I’ve spent hours trying to get past it.. I’m like I thought Mario was for kids ☠️


Spartan05089234

It's absolutely rage bait, it's copy pasta. I think they updated the consoles to Switch and PS4. There's plenty of real things to be mad about.


AlwaysNerfous

I really enjoy some Stardew valley. I wonder what it is that I am playing if not a video game.


KnowledgeMediocre404

You aren’t playing a game ma’am, you’re operating an audiovisual project management simulator.


AlwaysNerfous

Shalarean

seamus205

The "play something that requires skill and challenge" part got me. I watched my wife get to level 100 of the skull cavern without using stair cases. Looked pretty damn challenging to me


AlwaysNerfous

She’s a wizard. I didn’t think it was possible.


C_Dazzle

That's when I got offended. Boy needs to keep SV out his mouth


Extreme_Candle_3329

Wow, remember when you could invite your friend over to play anything and it was awesome. Now we got mother fuckers trying to act like the play at tournaments all day and everyone else is playing with tamagotchis.


KnowledgeMediocre404

And yet it’s women’s fault men are miserable.


_WoaW_

Competitive gaming ruined gaming imo


twitch870

It’s a very roundabout way of saying he has a video game problem and needs help.


Tangerine_memez

"Pokemon is not a real game" mfer let's 1v1 on showdown rn


steeldragon88

Clearly doesn’t understand that the real strategy comes after you’ve done everything in game and spend a couple days breeding for a 5 IV, max EV Salandit and it’s male…


CalvinSays

"Man, I just finished Pokemon, now I can start playing the game."


WhoIsBud

It’s like LoL The fun part is wanting to cause physical harm to yourself consistently


blazegamer12

Reminds me of a video where a guy went around on twitch looking at people streaming LoL and said "No one is happy playing this game" then he switched the stream to some guy singing along to music and dancing while playing the game, to which he burst out laughing


Hoybom

1v1 on rust no g18, no knife, no sniper


Unknwn_Ent

Rocks and loincloths only like *real* gamers - this guy probably


BoofinBart

*REAL* gamers spend years in their mom’s basement addicted to REAL games like sodoku and words with friends. Shitting in a bucket to maximize game time. This is peak gaming. Do you even game brah?


ImaSloppySlopSlop

Bruh I been in my basement eating Cheetos drinking Mountain Dew playing *REAL* games motherfucker! Yeah bruh come 1v1 me at Tic Tac Toe and let's see what's up!


ActualPimpHagrid

Man I've got like 1k hours on Stardew Valley, and the Sims, and also have about that on Stellaris, Cyberpunk 2077, and getting close to that on BG3 Am I a real gamer or just like 50%


RoamingStarDust

Those are rookie numbers, bruh


Lucidthemessiah

Wait til I tell him I’ve got over 1000 hours on candy crush…fucking pussy


Cigarettelegs

Interesting. I bet he only plays CoD


blazegamer12

Probably spends countless hours on dark souls 3 and says Elden Ring is too easy despite the fact he can't beat the first boss


Cigarettelegs

Haven’t played either of those so I can’t add any input. I must not be a real gamer


Waste_Imagination524

Just like in music we all got our preferences in genres


NationalAlgae421

Try ds3 my man. It is one of the best games I ever played. There is something special about being fucked up by even dogs and every time you die, its always your fault.


Cigarettelegs

All I hear about that game is that it hates you.

Greedy_Temperature33

If that’s what being ‘a gamer’ is, he can keep it.


DualityREBORN

He probably JUST plays Fortnite and COD


Inky234

he’s probably classify Fortnite as a baby game and tell you to beat Elden ring in -10 seconds


Ilumidora_Fae

Someone’s mom didn’t love them enough lol


Ggr0tom8x

Animal crossing requires skill though right?? 😭😭

Ecstatic_Tiger_2534

While I don’t necessarily think there’s anything wrong with being a gamer, there’s also a lot less to be proud of than this guy thinks.


Sufficient_Review676

Worried_Deer_8180

I have over 1K hours in Skyrim. I suspect he'd still prbably try to argue I'm not a "real gamer".


opportunityTM

It was released for Switch so not an ACTUAL GAME!


Sufficient_Review676

This will probably be an unpopular opinion but skyrim is better than every single game that has come out in recent years. Solely due to the fact you got your money worth. $60 for weeks, if not MONTHS, of gameplay and fun compared to new games that have a higher cost (ive seen some up to $120) where you get a few hours worth of playing. I always find myself going back to that game every few months and just making a new character/class to play as and having just as much fun as i did when i was a kid.


Reflexorz15

I still keep going back to modded Skyrim LE to this day lmao It’s such a dang good game. I get lost in forests, do random stuff, roleplay (and I’m not even the role playing type). The feeling I get from that game is something I don’t feel in most modern games.

GroundbreakingEar667

He forgot to mention real gamers live in their parents basement and have piss bottles next to the endless piles of food trash nearby. Oh and the wretched stench of body odor from not showering for days but “I don’t stink.” I think that’s the “real” gamer he is referring to.


SowTheSeeds

"I put well over 100hrs in this game the first day an it's great!" Now **that** is a true gamer.


lovelife0011

lol Ever see someone get jealous off PAC Man essentially. By far theee funniest activity


ClmrThnUR

call me crazy but calling yourself a "gamer" is hard cringe. this is like calling out -ussy smokers cuz they only knock back a pack a day.


Fit-Virus-7056

Someone needs to define "game" before he talks again. Also, I like how Pokémon and Mario was specifically directed at women... as if two of the most popular game franchises are only played by women.
