    You could win that one though. It was time-able iirc.

      Yeah well tell that to me when I was 13.

        RNG manipulation to get the initial delay to be exactly what you want. Or just wait a few cycles to see what time table you’ve been given before you hit the button to stop the scroll.

    I don’t understand this meme. This mini game was probably the only easy part of my childhood.

      no shit, I won 90% of the time, just click click click, there was a timing trick to win everytime, was not rng.

      It’s complete RNG.

        Nah. It was totally time-able. I nailed this almost every time.

    I love using save states in emulators to win this every time.

    TIL there are people that never learned the timing trick with this game.

      There’s a trick? I thought it was just straight up rigged like casino games.

        Nope, apparently you can get screwed by RNG, but you were in control. I don’t remember it being particularly hard either

    LET’S GO GAMBLING!

    (after 2nd thing don’t line up) AW DANG IT!

    • FierySpectre@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Seeing as you had about a 3 frame window to line up the middle one (and pure chance to line up the bottom one), don’t be too hard on yourself

    “Very rigged and very unfair”

    It’s so easy to get free guys in Mario 3 that these were kind of pointless. The ones where you could win a hammer bros suit, on the other hand… Those were valuable.

    I feel like I only ever won this like 2 or 3 times total

    At least you control where it stops and can use skill to always get what you want; unlike a real slot machine.
