a Nintendo Minute
A Nintendo Minute is when time feels like it’s been kicked in the nuts and is running away from you screaming. It’s like being stuck in a level with a boss that won’t stop hitting you.
"I had 1 minute left and it felt like 10 minutes. I almost peed in my pants.", @MarioMan2000
"That last minute in Sonic the Hedgehog felt like being chased by a angry raccoon.", @SonicSpeedy
"I failed the level because time was being a jerk.", @NinjaGaidenNoob
