nice ytmnd, but I have no idea what game she walks into...
2006-07-17 20:53:30
 
Is it Kid Icarus?
2006-07-17 20:54:26
 
i don't get it you f*cker.
2006-07-17 20:54:52
 
So, your basically combining 2 video games to make it funny? Or is this a bug. I don't get it. Wutever... I woulda downvoted you anyway... even if it was good.

im a big metroid fan, and i dont get it at all

2006-07-17 21:19:18
 
That was awesome. Fad!
2006-07-17 21:20:16
 
please explain
2006-07-17 21:20:40
 
Pretty sure that's Metroid to Kid Icarus, and that made me lol big time.
2006-07-17 21:21:17
 
i must be missing why this is funny....so im not gonna downvote, but I'm giving you a pretty stern confused look right now
2006-07-17 21:21:18
 
Samus walks in to the NES game "Kid Icarus". Duh.
2006-07-17 21:23:01
 
You could have made this funny by having her enter a better known game at a funny moment.
+1
2006-07-17 21:23:15
 
Please to be adding Pit on the other end of that. and remove the WTF, just put some "..."
2006-07-17 21:25:08
 
The whole point is that the two games look so similar. Also notice that its the same drum beat when the new music comes in.
2006-07-17 21:25:26
 
I love metroid, I live metroid........ I don't get what she walks into
2006-07-17 21:26:33
 
YES, A NON-"STOP-POSTING-CRAP" site that's also good in its own right.
2006-07-17 21:26:43
 
In fact I'll go as far to say I made a Super Metroid Hack http://drewseph.zophar.net
2006-07-17 21:28:11
 
For those that don't get the joke, Samus walks into.... DUN DUN DUN, Kid Icarus. 4 because those songs go together well.
2006-07-17 21:28:33
 
If you put kid icarus in the image I will up my vote.
2006-07-17 21:29:17
 
idiots who dont know kid icarus should die, newcomer pitt, anyone? know your history
2006-07-17 22:06:18
 
its beyond me that some people could not know kid icarus...dang whippersnappers.
2006-07-17 22:06:56
 
That doesn't mean that everyone should recognize a scene from it.

2006-07-17 22:11:14
 
They're both NES games... all NES games look and sound the same... still, you should get rid of the text and make her turn her head or something, it'd be funnier.
2006-07-17 22:21:46
 
5'd to counter.

2006-07-17 22:50:42
 
Take a less obscure video game and put her in it. Next, don't give the joke away with the "lol, internet" speech balloon.
2006-07-17 23:17:59
 
I have no idea what "kid icarus" is, but this sure wasn't funny.
2006-07-17 23:36:27
 
lol kids don't get it.
2006-07-17 23:55:09
 
lol, metroid engine == kid icarus engine
2006-07-18 00:03:38
 
Damn, I can't believe people don't know what Kid Icarus is. Such a great game. Oh and I love this YTMND, since Metroid and Kid Icarus were both made by the same people, look the same, and sound similar, that's what the joke is. This is made of awesomness, just fix the loop.
2006-07-18 00:29:18
 
Gunpei Yokoi RULES! (Designer of Metroid and Kid Icarus)
2006-07-18 00:32:06
 
Hahahahahaha.
2006-07-18 00:32:15
 
5 for Metroid, 5 for Kid Icarus, -5 for lack of Cheez-Whiz.
2006-07-18 00:43:46
 
-1 for lol thing. Just didn't work for me. Was fine before that ^^
2006-07-18 01:06:46
 
Kid Icarus is the third best game on NES IMO.
2006-07-18 01:34:51
 
Thanks for cheering me out of the f*cked up mood I'm in right now thanks to this. http://soundproof.ytmnd.com/ shows why.
2006-07-18 01:52:10
 
meh
2006-07-18 02:01:03
 
Metroid and Kid Icarus both had games for the NES and Gameboy (and were created by the same guy, Gunpei Yokoi), but Super Metroid came on the SNES and catapulted the series into one of Metroid's premier franchies, while Kid Icarus languished into obscurity. I wouldn't have gotten the joke, either, without the "lol" bubble.
2006-07-18 02:02:28
 
"one of Nintendo's premier franchises" damn it. I haven't slept in a while, give me a break.
2006-07-18 02:18:06
 
Isn't there an enemy in Kid Icarus that looks scarily like a metroid, and is hinted in the game manual to "possibly come from the planet SR388"?
2006-07-18 02:29:19
 
This was a great idea, but destined to be downvoted by the ignorant youth for not knowing what Kid Icarus is =
2006-07-18 02:46:07
 
Upvoting to offset the heathens that don't know of Kid Icarus.
2006-07-18 02:46:18
 
I congratulate you, friend. I got the joke fully. I guess you and I are just old school. Pit would be pround, lol.
2006-07-18 02:52:12
 
great games, great music
2006-07-18 02:53:45
 
also eggplants
2006-07-18 03:16:55
 
Ha!
2006-07-18 03:42:06
 
Listen to the MUSIC. Sounds almost the same to me.
2006-07-18 04:09:42
 
Kid Icarus FTW
2006-07-18 04:14:28
 
Ahhh, it's too bad way way way too many people here are too young to recognize Kid Icarus. Both games were created by the same guy.
2006-07-18 04:25:00
 
5 for metroid
2006-07-18 05:08:28
 
i love it.
2006-07-18 05:18:12
 
;) Hehe, rehashed engine ftw.
2006-07-18 05:24:05
 
Should have used Zelda. More people can relate to that.
2006-07-18 05:34:21
 
Take out the "wtf kid icarus" and just make her keep going through other NES sidescrollers. :P
2006-07-18 05:40:38
 
Lame. Makes no sense at all. I've beaten every NES game.
2006-07-18 05:41:03
 
Lol, Kid Icarus.
2006-07-18 05:43:17
 
I know Kid Icarus and Metroid used the same engine, but that doesn't make this any funnier. Also the "LOL, Kid Icarus" makes it even more lame.
2006-07-18 05:43:59
 
It's so true, but the kids won't understand it
2006-07-18 05:49:03
 
Kids? I've been alive before you even knew the word kid, bitch.
2006-07-18 05:50:20
 
"kid"
2006-07-18 05:51:48
 
^Ok, how old are you? And where does it say how old he is? What you just did was (ironically) immature.
2006-07-18 05:58:17
 
f*ck you. Stop upvoting sites that are more boring than watching paint dry.
2006-07-18 06:02:49
 
lol, nintendo
2006-07-18 06:04:16
 
Excellent.
2006-07-18 06:08:54
 
Excellent. My only gripe is that the "WTF" and "lol, Kid Icarus" speech bubbles are not necessary to make this funny.
2006-07-18 06:10:07
 
Oh, and mach-rider? If you've "beaten every nintendo game" then you would *know* Kid Icarus. It was a great game that came out around the same time Metroid did. I call BS on your statement.
2006-07-18 06:21:45
 
mach-rider, TIGGA PLZ.
2006-07-18 06:29:17
 
I said I know the game, this site just isn't funny. You are all upvoting this crap for the stupidest reasons.
2006-07-18 06:56:33
 
Fffffffive
2006-07-18 06:58:15
 
According to mach-rider, upvoting a site you find funny is a bad reason, while downvoting a site because he says so is a good one.
2006-07-18 07:02:08
 
Samus + Kid Icarus reminds me of Captain N. Most of you kids are too young to remember THE Captain N.
2006-07-18 07:15:29
 
Too short.
2006-07-18 07:20:36
 
according to me, you all have sh*tty tastes in YTMNDs
2006-07-18 07:21:31
 
nice sound mixing
2006-07-18 07:45:40
 
These comments are made of classic YTMNDtards bickering. 5'd.
2006-07-18 08:02:52
 
2006-07-18 08:05:46
 
hahaha
2006-07-18 08:06:21
 
The joke is that Metroid and Kid Icarus were made by the same people, and had pretty much the same style... timing jumps and blasting the sh*te out of stuff...
2006-07-18 08:32:41
 
The "WTF?" and "lol, Kid Icarus" was just kinda dumb :
2006-07-18 08:59:18
 
thank u for reminding me about kid icarus - I love that game!
2006-07-18 09:07:07
 
For those who don't know, Kid Icarus was the sister game to Metroid. Both were developed by Gunpei Yokoi, the graphics and sound are similar in each game (as is the gameplay), and both games featured a password system which allowed you to save your progress
2006-07-18 09:09:03
 
well, i don't think you should put the lol bit in... doesn't really work so well.
2006-07-18 09:12:43
 
"The "WTF?" and "lol, Kid Icarus" was just kinda dumb :" For NES Nerds this ruins the joke indeed :/
2006-07-18 09:17:47
 
If I take it out people will say they don't know what game it is.
2006-07-18 09:18:16
 
Suprising lack of boobies for a YTMND with Samus in the title.
2006-07-18 09:21:25
 
NEStopia > * tbh.
2006-07-18 09:28:20
 
I've played and beaten both of these games, and I still absolutely hate this ytmnd.
2006-07-18 09:42:48
 
swing and a miss
2006-07-18 09:56:57
 
Meh, I have to change my vote. I've disliked every change you've made so far, especially the thwomp.
2006-07-18 10:04:07
 
Only a 2 for sneaking in the lol fad.
2006-07-18 10:17:43
 
THWOMP.
2006-07-18 10:23:00
 
this synced terribly for me. Also why is this top 15? It sucks
2006-07-18 10:42:01
 
let me get my pooper scooper for this one.
2006-07-18 10:42:58
 
I would of rated this a 5 but since you put that thwomp bit in it, it just ruins the whole idea.
2006-07-18 10:43:17
 
The sync didn't actually work here, but I like because Metroid is the sister-series to Kid Icarus.
2006-07-18 10:54:43
 
nice dude, good music
2006-07-18 10:55:45
 
I'm always broke in Kid Icarus because I always charge sh*t on the credit card.
2006-07-18 10:56:47
 
The sound loop is bad...if the animation runs over 100 frames it's going to be hard to fix. But if you fix it, it's an auto 5. Great site.
2006-07-18 10:58:31
 
Also the criticisms on this site are REALLY PETTY. People need to get over themselves.
2006-07-18 11:12:42
 
I voted this.
2006-07-18 11:22:07
 
LOL, The games were made on the same engine.
2006-07-18 11:23:23
 
hahaha nice
2006-07-18 11:41:42
 
Nice job mixing the music
2006-07-18 11:45:52
 
lol, samus. XD
2006-07-18 12:02:11
 
5 for confusing the masses. I get it though LOL.
2006-07-18 12:05:23
 
guys, help me out here: http://pitwrongturn.ytmnd.com
2006-07-18 12:16:38
 
idgi. no vote until you explain yourself.
2006-07-18 12:22:24
 
Well done.
2006-07-18 12:30:49
 
i don't get it
2006-07-18 12:48:39
 
Now have her go into a Megaman boss battle.
2006-07-18 12:49:35
 
You know.... ppl wil downvote anyway so keep it as good NES Nerd joke and stand to it ;)
2006-07-18 12:49:58
 
Well, I'm a NES geek and I still have it hooked up and play it constantly. It was quite a hilarious ytmnd that needed no explanation.
2006-07-18 12:56:16
 
Oh, and take out the "lol, Kid Icarus" it ruins it. Just have Pit walk up and have "?" pop over his head.
2006-07-18 12:59:08
 
hahha.
2006-07-18 13:02:42
 
I love you
2006-07-18 13:18:51
 
Even if you can't discern the levels, how can you not recognize the infamous Kid Icarus music?
2006-07-18 13:25:22
 
5'd for Kid Icarus.
2006-07-18 13:30:06
 
please turn into a fad please turn into a fad please turn into a fad
2006-07-18 13:30:31
 
lots of potential, but not funny.
2006-07-18 13:59:56
 
Haha at the people not getting it. Still, I miss the thwomp. :(
2006-07-18 14:04:44
 
get the f*ck off of my top 15.
2006-07-18 14:05:04
 
This is hilarious, he posts it at first with NO bubble, and then people don't know what Samus walks into. People immediately demand he make it clear which game she walks into. So he puts a bubble in. Then new folks come along, see it for the first time, and say the bubble ruins the joke .. It's a Catch 22
2006-07-18 14:06:43
 
2006-07-18 14:10:24
 
5'd because Metroid and Kid Icarus used the same game engine!
2006-07-18 14:21:51
 
5'd that made me laugh
2006-07-18 14:28:52
 
Needs more Blaster Master
2006-07-18 14:45:01
 
Yeah I didn't play original NES. So I don't get it.
2006-07-18 14:53:50
 
You guys are ignorant. The creator of Metroid created Kid Icarus. There are even Metroids in the 3rd stage of Kid Icarus. Of course they are similar. 5'd for nostalgia and Kid Icarus, best NES game ever.
2006-07-18 14:53:56
 
Clever
2006-07-18 14:55:33
 
i understand your point but i dont see how its funny at all
2006-07-18 14:57:02
 
humour?
2006-07-18 15:03:14
 
very crisp
2006-07-18 15:15:50
 
Nice joke!
2006-07-18 15:19:57
 
you fail
2006-07-18 15:26:57
 
UNIVERSE TIER
2006-07-18 15:31:04
 
Yes! Kid Icarus had the awesome music too! Great YTMND for the old school NES heads... and the girls that gave great head back in those NES days...

2006-07-18 15:56:41
 
Kid Icarus FTW... That game is fun.
2006-07-18 15:57:07
 
FOR f*ckS SAKE, PEOPLE KNOW WHAT GAMES HE'S SHOWING AND THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE TWO. The point is that it's not funny. There's no humor. It's like telling someone that Quake 4 uses the doom engine. They don't laugh cuz that's not a humorous statement.
2006-07-18 15:58:08
 
*Doom 3 (typo, also I meant they probably won't laugh)
2006-07-18 16:00:50
 
5, just to spite mach-rider. "Bitch". Yay for arguing on the Internet!
2006-07-18 16:05:22
 
If you don't know Kid Icarus then it's time for you to hang out on myspace.com
2006-07-18 16:05:51
 
this is not top 15 material. where's the comedy?
2006-07-18 16:08:51
 
Would have been kinda funny as an in-joke but the speech bubbles make me want to punch you.
2006-07-18 16:12:29
 
f*ck it, ytmnd users are idiots. nothing but morons who are like I KNOW WHAT KID ICARUS IS BECAUSE I PLAYED IT ON MY EMULATOR I AM COOL. EVERONE ELSE DOESNT KNOW THIS GAME AS WELL AS I DO. EVEN THOUGH THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SITE'S HUMOR (OR LACK THEREOF) I WILL UPVOTE TO BE A PART OF THE COOL KIDS!! LOL!!
2006-07-18 16:12:41
 
Awesome, don't change a thing, it's a perfect match, because when you play those two games it really does feel like you could take a wrong turn and end up in the other. Though to probably could do without the "WTF".
2006-07-18 16:13:38
 
Hey, Metroid uses the same engine as Kid Icarus. LOL FUNNIEST JOKE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2006-07-18 16:19:49
 
YTMND is serious business. I thought it was crafty. I don't always come here for funny. What are you going to police me now? >_>
2006-07-18 16:22:13
 
Oh and Mach-Rider... I think they made this YTMND just for you. http://largeletters.ytmnd.com/ Hey, it worked, what do ya know?
2006-07-18 16:24:08
 
wow, way to miss the point of that YTMND
2006-07-18 16:25:11
 
and the point of what I was trying to say as well.
2006-07-18 16:29:45
 
she broke the fourth wall
2006-07-18 16:31:20
 
Heh, pretty cool.
2006-07-18 16:42:39
 
one of the older examples of two games shareing the same engine. also zebes > angel land
2006-07-18 16:51:59
 
NOOOO Change it back to the thwommmppppp ='(
2006-07-18 17:23:10
 
"wtf" and "lol, kid icarus" ruined it for me
2006-07-18 17:32:02
 
Like I said before, this would be much better without the text... and I still think you should make her turn her head. The body turn is an improvement, though.
2006-07-18 17:32:44
 
lol, Kid Icarus! You kids that don't get it make me feel old... :(
2006-07-18 17:34:56
 
cool
2006-07-18 17:56:38
 
oh Mach-Rider... how pathetic you look v.v
2006-07-18 18:07:50
 
...uhhh... riiiiight...
2006-07-18 18:09:14
 
you can put it on the board......yes!!
2006-07-18 18:16:06
 
I'm finished!
2006-07-18 18:26:16
 
Kid Icarus and Metroid were called brother and sister games. Made by the same developer and had the same gameplay, ergo this ytmnd makes sense and is awesome. Any true Metroid fan should know this.
2006-07-18 18:27:42
 
Samus kicks some serious ass. Bravissimo!
2006-07-18 18:33:04
 
lol, nice
2006-07-18 18:36:21
 
sry, but, what is Kid Icarus?
2006-07-18 18:38:47

2006-07-18 18:45:06
 
5!
2006-07-18 18:46:21
 
Very... very good. :)
2006-07-18 19:01:09
 
awesome. i want to kiss you. with tongue.
2006-07-18 19:02:34
 
5'd because you changed the text at the end.
2006-07-18 19:33:07
 
how does this still have a 4 with so many low votes
2006-07-18 19:42:49
 
5'd. How could you kids not know Kid Icarus? :-. YTMND knows about the 3 wise men's quest for Jesus, but not Kid Icarus...
2006-07-18 19:43:13
 
Wow. I woke up today withthe Kid Icarus theme stuck in my head - and I hadn't even seen this yet!
