How do you get into the black room of death? I
got 120 stars.
| Hairball:
Goto the cannon shoot up to the roof and get the wing cap and jump back
down to where the cannon is. Once in the cannon shoot as high as possible
and aiming to the highest part of the castle. Once there I'm not sure so
just try and play around and you'll probably make it. |
| BeckerManEX:
Well I guess Harry said it all. Not much more I can add. |
| Hotrod: Wow.
Room of what now? |

I think you gus did a good job makeing Mario
Party I think there should be a sequel Mario Party 2 and i think there should be
more stages and more minigames in Mario Party 2 if you even make Mario Party 2
well thats all I have to say
| Hairball:
I think Nintendo probably might make Mario Party 2. But it's hard to
think of ideas for mini-games when there are 50 of them in Mario Party. Let's
see what they come out with. |
| BeckerManEX:
With the instant hit that Mario Party was, I'm sure that Nintendo will make a
sequel to the game. I'm sure that when Nintendo starts thinking about a new MP
game (maybe a title for the new system) they will address the things that were
wrong with the original. Like the tediousness between turns. |
| Hotrod: That's
one long sentence. I imagine Mario Party's sequel will probably come out on
Nintendo's next system. Since Mario Party is more of a novelty game, I can't see
Nintendo publishing a sequel with N64's remaining time so crucial for big games. |

Is your internet provider Cox@Home? You are the
only other person that I know of that uses it.
| Hairball:
Um, no it's Shaw@Home. |
| BeckerManEX:
We have Cox@Home here in Arizona. I have never heard about Shaw before. The only
problem with @Home is the fact that you have to have specialty hardware. |

I think that you should keep it on nintendo 64
| Hairball:
Keep what on Nintendo 64? |
| BeckerManEX:
You heard him Hair, keep "it" just on Nintendo 64. |
| Hotrod: I
agree with James. |

Is the rumor about Luigi true?
Is there a secret code to get Luigi to follow
youeverywhere in Super Mario 64?
| Hairball:
No and no. That is basically the answer. |
| BeckerManEX:
I would like to find the person who starts these rumors....j/k |
| Hotrod: Maybe
if you close your eyes, and wish real, real, hard Luigi will follow you around. |
Someone from the UK wrote:
When will Mario Party be released in the U.K?
| Hairball:
That's a good question. You should check out Nintendo Europe's official
website at www.nintendo.de. |
| BeckerManEX:
You can also check out IGN64.com. They have release dates for Europe/Australia,
Japan, and the good old United States. They are your best bet along with
Nintendo of Europe's site. |
| Hotrod: What
more can I say that hasn't allready been said. |

I had a program called Mario does Typing, but it
does not work on my new computer. This maybe due to the disk being in water
during a recent storm. Any suggestions?
| Hairball:
I think I've hard of Mario Teaches Typing. I think it doesn't run on
Windows 95. Sometimes programs for Win 3.1 don't run properly in future Windows
systems. And the disk being in water could be a big reason. |
| BeckerManEX:
The water could have damaged it in a way, or the data on the disk could have
been corrupted somehow. You can pick up the program again for a low price at any
Best Buy or CompUSA. |
| Hotrod: Wow
you must be a big Mario fan to care about that VGA edutainment wonder. Hey maybe
Nintendo should finally release a keyboard for the Nintendo 64 and update its
Mario Typing franchise with Mario Teaches Typing 64. Then again, maybe not. |

Is there any way you can see Luigi on Super Mario
64? http://net.indra.com/~eyespy/MarioLuigi.html
Is this code real or fake?
| Hairball:
No you can't get Luigi. And yes the code is fake. |
| BeckerManEX:
No Luigi in SM64, and the person who runs that page has tricked you. |
| Hotrod: Vision
problems or color blindness could make Mario look green and thus give the
illusion that he is Luigi instead of Mario. |
Another AOLer wrote:
First, lets start with Goldeneye. In the
Facility, in the vent, I always fall through the gap trying to get
across. Do you guys know what's on the other side of the gap? I
tried a secret to get back in the vent, I got in but not to the other side.
Do you know what's there? I can't find Oddjob and Mayday in the game
anywhere. I e-mailed Nintendo asking them the same question and they said
they weren't in the game. This kid in school claims he knows where they are.
This kid also says he knows a secret for Bond to carry four guns.
Now, let's go to Mario 64. The same kid
said he knows a secret to find Luigi and a secret to get more than 120 stars.
All the secrets this kid told me never worked and I don't believe a word he
says. I just feel like smacking him.
Can you confirm these secrets and find them for
me?
| Hairball:
There is nothing on the other side of the vent in Goldeneye. Oddjob and
Mayday are not in the game. Usually rumours at school are not real. Bond can
carry as many guns as he finds. He can only hold a maximun of 2 guns at the same
time. And in Mario 64, LUIGI IS NOT IN THE GAME. And you can't get more than 120
stars and that's that. |
| BeckerManEX:
GoldenEye 007: You can't get across the gap in the vent without using some cheat
device such as a GameShark. Oddjob and Mayday are not in the Single Player Mode,
you can only find them in the multiplayer mode. And Bond doesn't have 4 arms, so
unless Mr. Bond is using other bodily extremities to hold guns you cannont hold
more than 2 guns.
In Mario 64 there is no LUIGI!! There is also no
such thing as more than 120 stars in the game. Technically there is 121, but the
one you recieve from Bowser on the 3rd Battle turns into the Princess instead of
adding it to your total.
In refrence to your friend you need to find
something really big and hard and smack him across the head for making you think
all these things are true.
|
| Hotrod: Getting
across to the other side of the vent will cause your Nintendo 64 to immediately
implode. Oddjob and Mayday can be accessed in multiplayer somehow. I don't know
how to do it but I've been them before. There is a way to carry three guns I
think, but again, buy a strategy guide or something to find out how. To access
Luigi, you have to get the 121st star which is located in the spaceship on Level
13. |

the games. |

| Hotrod: I
think you and Hairball are perfect for eachother. |

what graphic program did you use to make your
site Super Mario Central i really like your page it is cool mine is temporally
down
| Hairball:
I use Paint Shop Pro 5 to make all the graphics. Coming soon will be 3D
text, and much cooler stuff. |
| BeckerManEX:
Paint Shop Pro 5 is a great program and its very user friendly, so it makes it
easier to make great graphics in a low amount of time, even if you have a low
amount of skill. |
