This morning at 4 AM, I started my attempt to collect all 120 gold cards and all the costume pieces in Bomberman 64. After what seemed like hours in the first stage of the game, I finally was able to figure out all those bomb puzzles that had plagued me since the game first came out in America! Fast forward to this afternoon, and I had all 20 cards in the first world! ...then I stupidly deleted my save by accident.
But since I know the solutions to the first world's puzzles now, regaining those 20 cards was a breeze and only took 29 minutes. And I just finished the second world, leaving me with 80 more cards to go! Woo! I'm getting pretty good at this bomb jumping thing...
