PrinceWatercress plays Super Boy I - Part 2 of 4


After some more history, we dive right into World 2!

Believe it or not, beloved consoles such as the Nintendo Famicom and the Sega Master System were sold in South Korea. However, due to a South Korean ban on Japanese products in response to Japan treating them like dirt throughout the 20th century, South Korean manufacturers had to sell the products in their names in order to get through the embargo. Hyundai would handle Nintendo's consoles from the NES to the Nintendo 64 while Samsung would handle everything on Sega's side from Master System all the way to the Dreamcast.

Due to the fragile relationship between Japan and Korea, the majority of the games were in English and there was no attempt, if at all, to translate anything into Korean.

World 2-1 starts - and ends - simply enough. Just make sure you are careful near the end so you don't fall into any pits.

World 2-2, however, is where it starts getting weird. The Cheep-Cheeps act really weird. Instead of jumping to one side, they float to the top and bounce off anytihng on the way up. Wait for them to disappear if you need to before continuing on. If you can do so, keep holding down the jump button (which is Button 1, in this case) to bounce off a Cheep-Cheep and get some additional air time and skip even more of the stage. This is easier said than done, since it is not easy to pull off.

Once you reach World 2-4, you won't have to deal with the Cheep-Cheeps anymore. Thankfully, this area is easier than World 1-4.
