Pro Tip of the Day. Pro tip: Watching where you swim in Super Mario Bros. 3. On Thu, 10/14/2010 - 06:14. You might remember some months ago. I told you about a semi-secret passage through the grassy areas of Super Mario Bros. 3. One of these stages is 3-4, which features water in some of the pits that you have to navigate. The same rules apply here, too, hug the wall to try and get away from a marauding Cheep Cheep and hit that dark patch at the bottom of the screen. So, try to not do that, okay? For exa...

Pro Tip of the Day. Two years of Pro tips. On Mon, 10/18/2010 - 06:10. Two years ago today, I had a vision. A site where I could tap into the vast amounts of video game information I've accrued over the years and put it into an easily digestible format, based on an Internet meme, which was, in turn, based on a particularly clumsily-worded spot in a magazine. And now, two years and 544 tips later, I'm taking a bit of a break to dabble in some other projects. Does that mean that this site is dead? Pro tip:...

Pro tip: Avoiding using the spinning slash in Ninja Gaiden | Pro Tip of the Day
http://www.protipoftheday.com/node/542.html
Pro Tip of the Day. Pro tip: Avoiding using the spinning slash in Ninja Gaiden. On Wed, 10/13/2010 - 05:50. When you're playing Ninja Gaiden, one of the most useful powerups is the spinny-slashy thing. I'm sure it's got a name and everything, but I never bothered looking it up. But, really, what it does is make Ryu a spinning Whirlwind of Death(tm) every time you jump and press the B Button. Which could leave you high and dry at any moment, with no spinny-juice left. So, what do you do?

Pro tip: Checking out the debug menu in Kickmaster | Pro Tip of the Day

Pro Tip of the Day. Pro tip: Checking out the debug menu in Kickmaster. On Mon, 10/11/2010 - 05:56. So let's say that you have a copy of Kickmaster for some reason, and you're tired of slogging through the first couple of stages because of the bad control, the wonky hit detection, or any number of other reasons. Well, in that case, you could go to the password screen. And enter this password. Done right, you'll be taken to the Debug Screen. But, hey, nobody's arguing semantics here.

Pro tip: An alternate path through the 'grassy' stages in Super Mario Bros. 3 | Pro Tip of the Day

Pro Tip of the Day. Pro tip: An alternate path through the 'grassy' stages in Super Mario Bros. 3. On Thu, 01/14/2010 - 07:21. In the 'grassy' stages of Super Mario Bros. 3 (like stage 1-2, for example) you might notice that there's a dark green patch at the bottom of the screen. You may be thinking that was an artistic choice, but if you're properly prepared, you'll find that it's more than that. But it's a fun novelty to do once or twice.

Pro Tip of the Day. Pro tip: Shooting the Duck Hunt dog. On Fri, 10/15/2010 - 06:05. So, we've all been playing Duck Hunt, missed the quota of Ducks, and had the Dog laugh at us. But if you're playing the Arcade version (a.k.a. Vs. Duck Hunt), you get a special Bonus Round every once in a while where the Dog leaps out of the grass. Which is totally your opportunity, so let fly. He'll complain a little bit, but, hey, some folks might say that he had it coming. Pro tip: Dealing with meaningless stats.

Pro Tip of the Day. Helping those less pro become more so. Two years of Pro tips. On Mon, 10/18/2010 - 06:10. Two years ago today, I had a vision. A site where I could tap into the vast amounts of video game information I've accrued over the years and put it into an easily digestible format, based on an Internet meme, which was, in turn, based on a particularly clumsily-worded spot in a magazine. Probably not, but I definitely need to take a little bit of a breather. Pro tip: Shooting the Duck Hunt dog.
