idk compared to the NES the North American library for this thing is awfully underwhelming and has an ever-increasing amount of sports shovelware and bad licensed games. it does seem most of the good stuff stayed in Japan.

Yeah, as a platformer guy, this system is surprisingly underwhelming beyond the main classics everyone else has played and heard of a million times. Skyblazer is good though
What do you gain from lying?
He doesn't know what he's talking about
I'm also gay for platformers beatemups and shooters and I like the Genesis better for all three. ofc all the games people say are good for snes are good it's just not enough in the genres I like.
the SNES is better at RPGs, strategy games, etc as they benefit from the more lush audiovisuals, more controller buttons, and more system RAM. i agree the Genesis usually always wins at action games.
The Mega Drive ended up with the higher quality RPGs and strategy games as well. After Armageddon, Aisle Lord, Arslan Senki, Beggar Prince, Cosmic Fantasy CD, Dark Wizard, Langrisser 1&2, Legend Wukong, Lunar 1&2, Phantasy Star 2&4, Pier Solar, Shining Force 1/2/CD, Shining in the Darkness, Vixen 357, Illusion City, Rise of the Dragon, Snatcher, Space Adventure Cobra, Pirates Gold, Dune: The Battle for Arrakis, Herzog Zwei.
bro move on please I'm begging you
Are the Sega CD ones decent, at least?
I've never had a Sega CD or bothered to set up an emulator I'm afraid
Low quality thread
Just stop
Agreed
Low quality reply
Where should I go to learn more about the japanese library?
refuge.tokyo is a great place to start. Lots of pretty screenshots.
>jiggle physics
Meh, I've got Dead or Alive for that.
I respect that opinion, but hand-sprited 2D anime girl eye-candy just fills my heart with warmth and joy.
There's a simple beauty to it that no amount of polygons can replicate.
I think it was directed at the OP since he listed a grand total of zero games
I was surprised at the amount of licensed sports trash on there since you always heard the Genesis was the sports console.
Nintendo actually ran stealth ads (ads that resembled magazine articles) trumpeting the amount of sports games on the system.
Sports games are fun.
Why are retro sports games considered shovelware now? They were legitimate system sellers back then
The NES stuff was charming because it was so simplistic and cartoony. It was with the 4th gen consoles that they start getting obsessed with gritty realism and having actual team/player names so games got less fun and also aged worse.
tecmo bowl had player names too.
I mean, would you rather play NBA '98 or Super Mario World
He won't because he probably doesn't know any
FIFA 94 is completely humiliated by FIFA 2024 and even more so by actually good games like Super Mario World
That being said, ISS is a legitimately good game worth playing today.
Soccer games have always been trash (surprising no one), but basketball, football, hockey, etc. were tons of fun even for non sports watchers.
Modern sports games are still system sellers with le gamers scoffing at them. Only makes sense that retro sports titles would be considered unworthy.
>now
Because the sports gamers of old were more likely to be the kind of people who grew out of old consoles and sold them off to fund the next thing to get the latest iterations of their favorite sports game franchises. People who held on to, and continued to buy games for, their old consoles were/are more likely to be the kinds of gamers who aren't sports fans and are not fans of sports games. So the end result is used games stores overflowing with sports games with very few interested buyers, which means lower prices, which gives the impression that they're all junky shovelware (which for the taste of a lot of current day retrogamers is going to feel accurate, because for them, even a good sports game is still just a sports game).
The exceptions will be things like Tecmo Bowl and Madden, which due to their fame, have their own dedicated collectors.
I demand special consideration for good games that were incidentally sports games like 16 bit NHL hockey
I have never watched 20 continuous minutes of real hockey in my life and still played NHL hockey with friends who were also 100% hockey nonfans for like 3 summers, it was like street fighter 2 in terms of home multiplayer games
the SNES found its home with these games like UW that play to its strengths. it never could match the Mega Drive at gritty "walk around and punch people" stuff.

All without being an idiot and pretending the NA library was somehow bad
Right. See all those cool SFC games while a little too much of the US library is stuff like Saturday Night Slam Masters, NHL 94, and licensed platformers that usually play better on the Mega Drive.
You are confusing the US library with western-developed games. Mario, Yoshi, Mega Man, Street Fighter, Castlevania etc. all came out in North America too. We even got some stuff we normally wouldn't like Pocky and Rocky and Goemon games.
I might agree that those western-developed games were arguably better on Genesis though, especially ones that were on SEGA CD like Mickey Mania and Earthworm Jim.
>I might agree that those western-developed games were arguably better on Genesis though, especially ones that were on SEGA CD like Mickey Mania and Earthworm Jim.
Every EA sports game on SNES was phoned in. Bugs, poorly optimized, lots of slowdown compared to the craftsmanship and attention to detail of the Mega Drive versions.
EA had more incentive for making Sega the priority since they got away with making Sega their b***h over the cart lockout while Nintendo already went through all that a year or two before and weren't going to kowtow
nah they just didn't like the SNES to begin with because they considered it underpowered. EA's philosophy has always been using the most powerful hardware available and during the early 90s their efforts were mainly focused on the Mega Drive and PC.
>they considered it underpowered
They weren't wrong.
>2.68 mhz in 1991
Go away MHz weirdo, you had a thread already today
More people are catching on that the SNES really isn't all that great. I love to see it!
Auster, it's never going to work and deep down you know it.
Pretty sure all those slowdowns were the result of the SNES' weaker CPU. The Genesis, meanwhile, was working with both an mk68 and a z80.
The western library is considerably less interesting though
Mainly because all the western devs made shit on either the Genesis, 3DO, or PSX.
Nobody has heard of, cares about, or likes any of these shit picks, and you're never going to convince the world the SNES is worthwhile by making up lists of filler like this. The SNES library is Mario, Zelda, and Metroid, that's all it has that's worthwhile, and that's all you really care about any way.
You're right, Australia-kun. The SNES really does suck and you're better off sticking with the ZX Spectrum.
Sorry to hear that you have shitty, bland taste.
We get it, the mods let larpers and schizos get away with endless roleplay and trying to make everyone unhappy, you do you but I'm gonna play
because Namco games go hard
>Namco games go hard
It's literally a game for toddlers, with toddler word matching games like something out of Peppa Pig. You SNES fans are really scraping the bottom of the barrel aren't you? Mario doesn't hold up so hot after 800 playthroughs?
The Kaizo hacks do, but the officials do not.
and Wario
Game Boy 2
homie... this don't even fricking qualify as trolling. a shitty game made by shitty devs to shill a mouse (that failed) and a barely better peripheral that only exists for pokemon (no you don't really care about the slight speed difference, you're not a speed troon).
you just googled super famicom exclusives and picked the ones that you recognized, didn't you?
Even then, Mario Pain did a better job at shilling the snes mouse.
Add Super Picross to that list
So many years of being told its the best console of all time and it's just kinda like the NES 2: more colors and slowdown. It's sad because I've talked to snesgays who insist despite that being all there is, it's as good as gaming gets. I think that basically confirms they've never tried other consoles. Leaning hard on the RPG library which most say its the best part about this thing I still don't see it.
and like idk if you want sports, platformers, and punchers the Mega Drive was better at those
>I think that basically confirms they've never tried other consoles
It's this exactly. Nintendo fans have spent decades sucking off the SNES and refusing to touch any other 16-bit hardware. It's quite sad to see, because it limits them to the very small handful of a dozen or so of decent SNES games out of the entire excellent 16-bit era, where there are literally hundreds of awesome titles to be found on the Mega Drive, PC Engine, Neo Geo, X68000, arcade games, and so on. Yet all they would rather do is play Mario and Zelda for the 700th time. I'll never understand it, and I'll never understand why this shit console isn't left in the dumpster where it belongs.
>X68000
At this point I am convinced that people who suck off X68k have only played Castlevania
The 4th gen was when the Wild West days of the industry were over and everyone more-or-less figured out what kinds of games different markets liked, so this meant games got more predictable and boring. So for Japan this meant a lot of RPGs and pachinko/horse racing shit while for Americans and Europoors it meant a lot of licensed platformers and sports games.
I must say I do admire Batista Harpu's perverse dedication to trying to beat the entire library including stuff in moonrunes and dozens of Mahjong and horse racing games.
stop dickriding that guy
>I must say I do admire Batista Harpu's perverse dedication to trying to beat the entire library including stuff in moonrunes and dozens of Mahjong and horse racing games.
i never understood why someone would do that to themselves instead of going out, learning a useful skill, meeting women, having sex etc.
Well anon, have you done any of those things?
I like how he's always so cheerful and happy in all his videos no matter how bad the game is instead of some LP-ers who are screaming "oh god this is the worst trash i've ever played"
yeah i wouldn't have that kind of discipline
women are a waste of your time
>e-celebs
end yourself
how do you play games you can't even read?
If they're VNs or jarpigs, you simply can't.
I watched a couple of Batista Harpu's vids for untranslated games like Hokuto no Ken 5. He mostly just does a lot of guessing and "click on every menu option until something happens." It works and he manages to beat the game but it's not pretty.
Heh, sounds like people who have to use Hex Editors in order to translate shit.
nobody's bothered trying to translate any of those HnK RPGs aside from 3 which has a Spanish translation
imo it'd be more fun to play the library in RNG than release order
That's basically what you already do on Famiclones, which is why I think they're neat.
Well at least the Famicom library anyway so you don't have to play like 100 NROM games until the real stuff starts.
The NROM title kills the American instantly but is well-recognized and loved by the rest of the world
I am vaguely familiar with PNPs, and I too enjoy their inclusion.
>The NROM title kills the American instantly but is well-recognized and loved by the rest of the world
wut
Anon is most likely european, so they know what that shit is. (Famiclones were more popular than the Famicon itself.)
It's a Brazilian or other Third Worlder trying to justify his childhood multicart because he couldn't play SMB3.
He just played
>3
>I must say I do admire Batista Harpu's perverse dedication to trying to beat the entire library including stuff in moonrunes and dozens of Mahjong and horse racing games.
He's braver than me. I'm not big on the idea of having to play 65 different licensed sports games for completion's sake.
why do people pathologically hate sports games? they've always been huge system sellers.
They were ok on the NES because they were simple and felt like a Tiger handheld. The 16-bit consoles just had too fricking many of them and they were closer to modern cancer with ultra-gritty realism and licensed franchises/players.
There really was no forgiveness for US Final Fantasy II and thankfully you can just play the SFC FF4 with a translation patch now and pretend that FF2 never happened.
Auster thread. Pack it up, this thread sucks.
>Auster thread. Pack it up, this thread sucks.
This guy and the assembly language LARPer don't really exist, they're just boogeymen /vr/ invented.
Lurk 10 more years
Anyway, there are lots of cool Japan-only titles even if many are still untranslated. You needn't subject yourself to Home Alone or Ahh! Real Monsters! because you played it at your cousin's house back in '95.
IV is better
Licensed shovelware based on Western TV show/movie: :/
Licensed shovelware based on anime franchise: :O
I'm impressed that the SNES has over 1,700 games the biggest library of any cartridge based console.
The licensed platformers are mostly all good if they're Japanese-developed, the Western-developed ones are crap and if a Mega Drive version exists it's usually better.
Likely because western devs are more-than-familiar with the m68k. That's why the jag's library was subpar.
beg pardon? the 65816 was just a roided-out 6502 a CPU everyone and their dog had coded for. Western devs liked the Mega Drive better because it was more straightforward to program and they thought Sega had a cooler image.
I guess that explains the GEMS abuse. (Doom 32x suffered from this the worst.) Perhaps I think that way because of that dope-ass tech demo that Titan made.
If anything Americans lacked 68k expertise since it wasn't really used on consumer or home computers here (coding business software for a Mac isn't really the same thing as making a side scrolling platformer) while Euros had lots of experience with the Amiga and Atari ST.
>Euros had lots of experience with the Amiga and Atari ST.
TiTAN is also a european demogroup, so that checks out.
Holy shit, the mHz schizo is going rampant. Fricking useless mods, shame on you for allowing this shit.
Extremely moronic thread. You're so stupid OP
This is a god damn strategy game that I can't read and don't want to figure out!
>the North American library
Skill issue
Why did you tell me to play this
I think it's a dating sim but I'm not really sure.
I think it is and I don't see the point of playing this
It's a NEET game, that's the point.
I'm a fat old man not a young teenage girl who longs for the love of pretty boys
You don't gotta be a girl in order to like boys, hehe. But yeah, that game looks boring as sin.
errrghhh...
Ice Hockey on NES was fun. This stuff is not fun.
Rock the Rink on PS1 is fun
NHL 94 is pretty well-regarded.
I played NHL '94 on SEGA CD and it was pretty good. Also I never knew there was a Guts game
Not to mention RPGs, and I've always found that genre to be a slog.
>54-56
a fitting trilogy i must say
>Bebe's Kid's
YES!
I've played it, or tried to, anyway. It's as bad as you've been led to believe. The shit feels like you're wading through tar. So sluggish and such bad controls. I believe I heard it was made in a couple of weeks by like one guy.
>I believe I heard it was made in a couple of weeks by like one guy.
Ah, so Nintendo ALWAYS had shovelware. Weird how people assumed Nintendo started to have shovelware during the Wii-era...
>The shit feels like you're wading through tar. So sluggish and such bad controls.
sure it's not optimized too well also Bebe's Kids was a SlowROM cart
/vr/ should ban eurogays especially britcucks.
Not really, they're better at coding than even amerifats.
good programmers not good game designers which is why you end up with Euro games always being convoluted maze jank where you have to grab 500 gems to progress while the Japanese made game levels that were a nice tight obstacle course.
I'd like to think Treasure established a nice, middle-ground.
and Americans try to make everything like a PC game with lots of moronic puzzle solving
Core Designs is cool, though.
Euros are cool in my book, the problem is specifically Australia-kun who is either bongistani or australian.
Australia-kun is a meme. It's not actually just one guy shitposting.
Nah.
Of course there's countless shitposters. Hell, most people here are, one way or another, but auster has that one specific way of having a visceral hate for Nintendo and esoecifically the SNES, olus he always uses the same wording and general autism.
He also ends up mentioning the speccy or amiga sooner or later.
Most anti-nintendo guys are mostly for the N64/GC vs PS1/PS2 shitposting, but even PS fans like the SNES. Old real Sega fans are beyond console wars at this point.
I'm anti-Nintendo because they're also anti-emulation.
That's fine. Being anti-nintendo is not auster's main outing sign, there's a lot of anti nintendo guys.
Phew, that's a relief. I'm sick of anti-piracy gays.
the SNES was better at the kind of games Japanese liked which was laid back atmospheric stuff that involve a lot of exploration and aren't very dependent on ninja reflexes. they do not like hardcore action, at least not for home console games--they think that stuff is for arcades.
>they do not like hardcore action
No wonder I'm biased towards the Genesis.
You can read Famitsu reviews from back then where they always dock games a notch or dismiss them as kusoge for being too difficult.
Imagine a Japanese person back in the day trying to play Rayman.
Yep.
And in the very same period, in the west they complained the games were too easy.
And yet "everyone knows" the difference in difficulty is all because of rentals.
Nintendo Derangement Syndrome
Besides, dating sims are only any good on PC-98 and PC-FX. (^:
Apparently DOS too, but don't take my word for it.
Since we are talking about bad western games, how about some good ones?
As long as it doesn't play like Shaq Fu, this should be passable.
It's funny you made this thread because I was thinking about making it too although more so for the system as a whole not just the SNES. I just went through all my SNES/SFC roms a couple weeks ago hoping to find some obscure games that are fun but there just weren't any. You have a bunch of all time greats that everyone knows about, and you have some mid-tiers that most retro game fans know about like Demon's Crest or Act Raiser, but nothing equivalent to say the NES/FC's Cocoron or Radia Senki or Xexyz etc.
Are you seriously saying that Xexyz is better than Demon's Crest? If so, that might be the oddest opinion I've ever seen on this board.
Oh wait I guess anon was saying that the Xexyz of the NES (which is Xexyz) is better than any obscure SNES game, implying that there is not a Xexyz of the SNES. That's also very odd, since Xexyz is not a good game, but it's not mind-bogglingly insane.
How did Nintendo hurt you all those years ago Anon?
This is THE question when it comes to Australia -kun.
You have a lot of nintendi haters but few are as feral and actually deep as Australia seems to be, the motherfricker has a personal grudge with the japanese company.
Probably just a schizo, but sometimes I like to think it's an old brit speccy programmer who pitched some game and got turned down by Nintendo or something and became salty ever since.
The SNES has got to be the worst console that's popularly held in high regard. Like others ITT, I never played it much until a few years ago, I just took SNES fans on their word that it was as good as they say. Once I really decided to take some time and try to find the good SNES hidden gems, I was shocked to find there just weren't any. It really is just a system for the top 10 titles everybody already knows. It's appalling how a system with so little depth to it is constantly shilled as if it's the best console ever.
At least Mario World is pretty good.
This but N64 and unironically
Same. Look the N64 has it's moments, no question but the library is dreadful compared to it's competition and what came before it.
One day you'll convince people. Just one more post and everyone will stop liking the SNES and start liking the Amiga.
Who are you talking to?
Nothing ironic about it. The really popular consoles are usually pretty great. I love the PS2, the PSX, the Saturn, the Mega Drive, the NES is pretty good even if it hasn't aged particularly well. But I just can't see what the fuss is about with the SNES. It really does only have about a dozen worthwhile games out of a library of almost 2000. I agree with you that the N64 is the same way too, it's just odd, because the library is so much bigger on the SNES. By the numbers, you would think that would mean the SNES should have a library with way more substance than the N64, and yet, somehow that's not the case. What went so wrong?
Just one more post... surely this one will change everything... Any day now my campaign against the SNES will be successful.
Meds.
yeah, take em
Medgay, here. Trintellix is the shit 🙂
>Plok
I consider that to be one of the hidden gems, but don't take my word for it.
it's an ok console if you like weeb jarpigs but not for much else.

SNES games I've beaten (that I can remember), without mentionning either RPGs, A-RPGs, or Nintendo properties. I believe most of them had an US release.
oops, DKC is Nintendo property, anyways... all these range from good to great, that is if you enjoy video games.
the SNES and PS1 were kind of peak jarpig overload
PlayStation JRPGs were awesome, SNES JRPGs weren't even the best of that generation (Phantasy Star IV and Shining Force II clear every SNES JRPG)
Playstation JRPGs are the same thing but with FMVs.
And loading times and long unskippable animations. I prefer cart-based RPGs than CD-based ones.
it became possible to have RPGs that actually felt like an epic adventure. NES RPGs couldn't pull it off; too crude and bleepy.
That's one reason for me to prefer the Genesis, because I'm a platformergay.
I’m convinced Austroon is the Black person troony janny.
Brilliant. And I have absolutely no fricking idea what's going on.
p. sure she's talking about her OnlyFans account
There is also a Famicom Chibi Maruko-chan game that is completely different from the SFC one and I had a real hard time even finding screenshots of it and Youtube has one gameplay video.
What the hell do you mean messy, young lady
Apparently there was another SNES Maruko-chan game but much later and it came out in '95.
I'd have more fun playing the entire NES or Famicom libraries than the SNES/SFC ones
but I'd also have more fun playing the entire SNES/SFC library than the PS2 one. And I'd probably committ sudoku out of sheer depression and embarassment at the mere thought of having to play the entire XBOX library.
>I'd have more fun playing the entire NES or Famicom libraries than
If you played them in release order then you'd have to play a shitton of primitive NROM games before getting to the good stuff. At least the SNES starts out of the gate with F-Zero and SMW.
>NROM
That's cool and all, but what about the modern NROM homebrew?
>At least the SNES starts out of the gate with F-Zero and SMW.
NTA, but that and a handful of others are pretty much all there is to look forward to. At least with the NES, you have a steady stream of increasingly good games to look forward to.
>NTA
i'm just saying with FC/NES library you start out with Colecovision-tier games and eventually end up with Kirby's Adventure and Metal Slader Glory while you've seen most of what the SNES has to offer in the first year of games released for it.
>If you played them in release order then you'd have to play a shitton of primitive NROM games before getting to the good stuff. At least the SNES starts out of the gate with F-Zero and SMW.
SMB is the first "real" release in here, 69 games in. Also you'll get stuck at Championship Lode Runner and ragequit, you'll never beat that one.
And I'd have more fun playing early Famicom game than playing Mario Kart and F-Zero. I've played a lot of F-Zero and SMK (both 1p and 2p) and I've come to the conclusion that I don't like either. Both are full of 90° turns and annoying shit. In Mario Kart I feel forced to use either Mario or Luigi or else you don't get just one concurrent spamming stars every 2 seconds, but 2.
get good
I have and I have beaten more games and more difficult games than the average /vr/ poster. But getting good won't change the fact that F-Zero and SMK are full of shit by design, it just makes you used to eating shit. I feel like SNES F-Zero and SMK are games for the "Nintendo fans" who want to pretend they're hardcore gamer and everyone is supposed to pretend the games are flawless masterpieces because it's Nintendo even though the games are so blatantly full of shit. For me On SNES Top Gear series is a lot more fun but I'd probably have the most fun replaying NES Rad Racer, RC Pro Am, Micro Machines or even Motocross Champions. Hell, I'd have more fun replaying Famicom Grand Prix 1 and 2 than playing F-Zero and SMK.
The GBA F-Zero and SMK I actually liked, because they toned down the bullshit by quite a big margin. SNES SMK feels like a party game with a singleplayer mode as an afterthought. The norm in video games back then was to reward the players who got good and leave the others behind, SMK by design does the contrary and the better you get, the worse it gets.
>ESL
The first and second SNES games released were F-Zero and Super Mario World not Kart which came out in '92.
The best platformer on the SNES. (If you don't like Mario, that is.)
Rayman's Grand Dad.
There's also a Famicom port of this. A typical early SNES game on a SlowROM 4 megabit cart.
One more post, auster!
Almost looks like a Turbographx game.
Your character goes around using his oversized tongue as a a weapon and eats things that look like rolls but you can also stand on them and he can eat enemies. It has the usual cliche SMB3 overworld map and you can also buy items at shops ala Alex Kidd. The Famicom version is a lot different and has much more linear stages.
As long as it's a platformer, I'm going to play it.
>using his oversized tongue
I actually tried this game and really enjoyed it, I didn't even know it was by Game Freak until after I played it. It's like they were better before they started making nothing but Pokemon
>I actually tried this game and really enjoyed it
the mega drive or the sfc version?
i should have worded it better but the mega drive version was the one developed by gamefreak only, not sure who did the sfc one
i actually have this game of Magical Taruruuto-kun, it's alright for a platformer but i believe the Mega Drive version is more flashier and straightfoward, whereas this one you have a map like smb3 and pick your own levels whereas the mega drive one let's you progress to the next level like a standard platformer also it was developed by Gamefreak.
The Mega Drive game looks almost next generation by comparison. Fricking pathetic for the 2 years newer and more expensive SNES.
there's your answer, moron. the Mega Drive was two years older so coders had more experience with it while the SNES port came out in the console's first year. i mean the very early MD releases from '89 don't look especially good either.
There's some serious delusion going on with SNES fans when they really believe having a CPU at a mere 1/3 the speed is somehow not a huge detriment. Either way, the SNES never "caught up", the best looking Mega Drive games were doing things the SNES could only dream on.
F-Zero looks and plays better than any racer on Genesis/PC-Engine.
Meh it's still not much special, racing really needed the jump to 3D. Playing the first NFS on a 3DO vs what came before it, it was a world apart.
Now you change the subject suddenly. What happened? Where's the link to the unfinished techdemo or Wacky Races?
Huh? Was that bait or something?
I was just expecting the usual response instead of trying to change the subject.
I think f-zero is different and leverages mode7 better than anything else on the console, but it's not a big enough leap from the pole position roots of other horizon chasing racers of the time. It's of a similar caliber as road rash on sega to me, good games but not a true leap.
It runs, looks and plays way better than Road Rash. The point I'm making is you said the SNES never "caught up" to the other two 16-bit consoles, when one of its launch titles had features the competition never could achieve.
It plays better because it is entirely flat. Road Rash has 3d tracks.
>Road Rash has 3d tracks
It has simulated heights but otherwise is a typical 2D racer with the limitations that come from the perspective. The SNES has its own low framerate hill simulating racer in Super OffRoad the Baja.
Those aren't 3d at all, it also runs at 1/6th the fps of f-zero.
Road rash 2 is still a fun game though.
>F zero sucks but this mediocre motorrace game is vastly superior in every way
Sure buddy.
>we're SNES fans, the extent of our knowledge of racing games is Mario Kart and F-Zero, we've never touched Gran Turismo, Need for Speed, Daytona or any non-Nintendo kid-friendly racers in our lives! Now, let us lecture you on racing games!!
You don't have to be an expert in racing games to recognize these Amiga jank games are bad. You just need eyes and ears for that.
Never played an amiiger but I believe there's a chance they're good games, euros tend to make good racers as their breed of autism keeps the small details in mind.
The developers of the Lotus games actually did make good racers... on the SNES.
I mean that genuinely, they improved the controls and presentation significantly in the Top Gear series.
Even from the video alone you get a good impression for the feel the designers were going for. They paid a lot of attention to the "sensation" of driving which is where I believe euros excel when making racers. Something f-zero doesn't manage to recreate as it reads out speeds upward of 1000km/h on screen.
The Amiga has awesome racing games too, pic related. Which are also leagues ahead of what the stock SNES could do, because even the Amiga (almost 5 years older than the SNES) was THREE TIMES FASTER.
>b-b-but F-Zero was so impressive!!
What a fricking joke. SNES fans get the rope.
I like how every time you link to an Amiga game it's like a punchline. The absurdity of someone trying to present this as superior to anything is actually funny.
I like how every time the Amiga is brought up, you SNES fans immediately go into a frothing rage, completely incapable of fathoming that there are good games on a 16-bit platform with thousands of games. You're brains are so melted from being used to there only being a dozen worthwhile SNES that you legitimately believe the 16-bit era didn't have anything to play outside of Mario and Zelda. It would be funny if it weren't so sad. Enjoy trying not to fall asleep whilst playing F-Zero again for the 600th time, I'll be here beating my PB times in all these other racing games I've been posting, or perhaps Super Monaco GP, or one of the Road Rash games, or the countless other awesome 16-bit racing titles across the many other 16-bit systems that actually had decent libraries of more than a dozen worthwhile games.
>I like how every time the Amiga is brought up, you SNES fans immediately go into a frothing rage
More like a laughing fit.
It's that crazed, wide-eyed laughing fit that brainwashed cult members do when confronted with obvious evidence that they're wrong.
Ironic coming from the Amiga fan.
Oh hey it's that game that looks, plays and sounds better on PCE CD
Your arguments are as stale as this thread. Pack it up spammer, you don't belong here.
>I'll be here beating my PB
More like beating your penis, because you don't play these games. At least you might finally do something different instead of seething and samegayging in your bait thread all day.
who the frick owned an amiga lmao is this some kind of european thing
>my single-digit framerate racers suck
>better randomly bring up racers from the succeeding console generation because i'm an obsessed console warrior
That wasn't me. You might be shocked to learn that more than one anon here doesn't suck the SNES dick.
F-Zero is totally flat and looks like pixel vomit, it also has terrible physics and horrible rubber banding AI. Kawasaki Superbike Challenge has far better physics, far better AI, track height undulations, awesome 3D polygon effects, and all running on a stock Mega Drive, something the SNES could never achieve.
I forgot about Kawasaki Superbike. It's like a shitty Amiga game so it's naturally forgettable.
Leave it to a SNES fan to have horrible taste. The Mega Drive also has Lotus, which beats the shit out of the official Outrun port (which still isn't bad) and any of those flat and lifeless "mode 7" racing games. Not that I expect you to be able to appreciate anything that isn't you're Mario, Zelda, F-Zero tendie franchises.
That shitty Kawasaki game has ten minute long races with no music and absolutely zero personality or fun. You can instantly sense it was Amiga developers who made it. Along with whatever abomination you just posted a screenshot of lol.
>no music
imagine caring about an otherwise awesome racing game not having bleep bloop beep music
put on some real music in a CD player and stop crying
Taking advantage of the lack of IP count right? It's not gonna work you damn spammer.
>actually engaging in discussion with auster
He is not a sega/md fan anyway, he uses the MD and PCE as ammo against the SNES but he hates japanese gaming, only cares about british micro demo scene, although more than that, he cares about convincing people that they shouldn't like the snes
>also it was developed by Gamefreak
That shit's just a warning sign
ah so it's kinda like a remake of the fc version
Whereas the SNES library starts out like this.

Technically US FF2 is a localization of FF4 Easy Type. Also this includes a bunch of moonrune games while there are no FC/NES games that really require language dependency until about '86 outside maybe The Portopia Serial Murder Mystery (which is translated anyway).
>Technically US FF2 is a localization of FF4 Easy Type.
No, it isn't. Easy type is a relocalization of US FF2 that got made easier.
When households purchased a Super Nintendo console, it was for the intent of the child (usually a young boy). It was expensive.
When families purchased games for that boy, it was usually as a reward, and rare. It was expensive.
When people owned a "library" of SNES games, they barely reached a dozen titles over the years they came available. They purchased the best games.
>so many bad games
And they were never played.
Like the hundreds of bad SEGA games. Or N64 games. Or Playstatoin games. Or MS-DOS games. Or PC games. Or Flash-based games. Or Gameboy games. Or PSP games. Or XBOX games. Or, or, or.
>Every Game Library is Personalized
ha ha oh my no. you only had a couple of games and if they happened to be Home Alone or Frantic Flea you played them and liked it because it was something to do.

So, you "clearly" have zero inference ability.
After getting a console, I was gifted ~2 video games per year: once for my birthday, once during Christmas. Getting another game was either the result of clearance prices or my Baptist Church's teen program asking members to take what they were throwing away. I've played many games on the original console and I'll reiterate that the games I came across were the best of each system's libraries... not "shovelware."
Kids today have Wikipedia lists and emulation piracy which present every title to equal fame & quality and have no idea what you're talking about.
this was my experience yeah, I only really started getting “libraries” of games once I was in middle school through emulation on ZSNES and what not
As an addendum still like to keep my libraries relatively small. I don’t have more than 30-40 games for any older system (I won’t include modern consoles since their libraries re cross-gen and I’m guilty of buying too much shit on sales I’ll never play)
This discounts rentals. I rented the vast majority of the games I played for simple economic reasons, and I was far from the only person who did this.
>And they were never played
No, I think a lot of people had some bad licensed shovelware that they played. Rainy day games that your young mind thought "might as well try it to pass the time" without realising that it only made the boredom more frustrating.
I mean it was something to do on a Saturday afternoon.
I'm just glad I have the luxury of seeing longplays before I can play them myself.
btw this game is yet more bad Euro collectathon jank
Good thing Bit Managers games are decent.
They were played but not bought, just rented.
Also remember that there were such things as bargain bins, where games that weren't selling would get unloaded for a fraction of their original retail price. I'd bet most kids had at least a few games that were entirely out of their usual realm of interest, simply because it was like $10 from the bargain bin.
God it fricking makes me wince that Mother 2 was marked down at that price due to low amerifat sales.
Now I see morons online selling loose EB carts, either sunbleached or with a destroyed label for like $300
seriously, no 8 year old in 1994 was like "fricking shit Eurojank" or "AVGN was right this game sucks an AIDS infected homeless guy's dick." it was a game and you played it because it was there and you didn't know any better.
Retro Zen Streaming did a playthrough of Masumon Kids for PS1 which was also untranslated and he just brute forces it. That is a long fricking game too, it took him 17 hours and six videos.
Extremely garbage thread.
Ikr? It's mostly jarpig shit.
How about a game of Dynamite Headdy?
Ah yes, I love Undertale.
I've never played Undertale. It looked like an amateur rip-off of Earthbound.
Ironically enough, Toby Fox got his start making Earthbound hacks.

No amount of samegayging and falseflagging will make it work.
homie, if you've ever browsed a retro vidya store, most of the Japanese SFC games are basically that, and maybe occasional mediocre anime tie in
>b-but hidden gems!
You've been deluded by certain ecelebs
The Famicom library does have more actual games and isn't quite as shovelware-ish. At least you're not choking on VNs and horse racing sims quite as much.
they did seem to be lean on action games whereas most Westerners associate SNES with sports and cartoony licensed platformers
>cartoony licensed platformers
Those were the highlights imo.
The PS1's Japanese library was much much worse--the amount of non-game shovelware there was nothing short of awesome while at least 80% of the Western library are actual games.
For that you can blame the fact that Japanese were a lot less likely to own a computer so a game console would sub for some of the tasks a computer would do whereas Westerners didn't need that and just used consoles for games.
the average westerner didn't have a computer during the SNES's lifespan either
Not even when 93 DOOM came out?
computers didn't really take off until W98 hit.
Makes sense, even South Park made fun of it.
It has the only console port of Spectre unless you count FM Towns Marty
>FM Towns Marty
It has the YM2612, so it absolutely counts.
But it isn't on the console proper, it just runs on it because the Marty is a gimped FM Towns PC and the FM Towns computer has a version of it. This would be like counting every Amiga game as a CD32 game
>This would be like counting every Amiga game as a CD32 game

How does it feel knowing the Mega Drive basically curbstomped the SNES in your region? I've heard the NES didn't take off in the UK like it did in the US
How does it know you fell for an american shitposting at 2:30 in the morning you ultra sped
Pretty funny, I'll admit.
i mean of course there are cartoony platformers like Magical Pop'n and Super Ninja-kun but not as many as the Western library has and the library does lean a lot into RPGs.
>most of the good stuff stayed in Japan
"Most" is a bit of a stretch. I'd agree that it's at least 25% and possibly up to like 1/3.
The Mega Drive had way less shovelware. Even though there's a lot of mediocre to bad platformers most of them are at least actual games and it's nearly absent of VN/Mahjong bullshit.
By this logic, N64 has a better library than the PS1 as well.
But you now what? frick console warriors. Imagine not having had all Sega and Nintendo consoles back in the 90s. What a horrible childhood. (implying most here were even alive/conscious back in the 90s, but that's besides the point)
it's all bad, man. once you play the first party and Square games there's fricking nothing.
The NES ran alongside the SNES for almost half the latter's market lifespan while NOA absolutely refused to put out any new SNES games after N64 launched even though it continued getting stuff in Japan right to the end of the '90s.
>while NOA absolutely refused to put out any new SNES games after N64 launched even though it continued getting stuff in Japan right to the end of the '90s.
Westerners were fixated on jerking it to early jank 3D games for some reason and did not want 2D stuff while Japan didn't care and the N64's lack of success there compelled them to keep the SFC going for a while longer.
That's not exactly true...Kirby Super Star, KDL 3, DKC 3 all came out after the N64, maybe Tetris Attack as well?
All that being said, I feel like we never saw the full potential of the SNES, maybe that concept Rare was working on that eventually turned into Banjo-Kazooie would have been the "ultimate SNES game."
>That's not exactly true...Kirby Super Star, KDL 3, DKC 3 all came out after the N64
The N64 launched in North America in September '96. It's true that DKC3 came out in November but it was obviously a game that had been in the pipeline to be released for several months. After N64 launch they wouldn't approve any new SNES game development.
>mfw you ignore Ken Griffey Jr Major League Baseball as the greatest baseball game ever made
What's with all these people saying they were stuck playing bad games... And saying they enjoyed it and didn't know any better on top of that. This is a sad sight, but my point is don't come thinking your experience was everyone's.
I guess it all comes down to whether they had a computer or not. If you had a computer, you had access to emulation as early as '98. And even before that you could get magazines with lliterally hundreds of playable demos; and chances are half your games were bought, the other half pirated. That's even if you didn't have an internet connection. Really if you didn't do gaming at the same time on computer and consoles, you didn't know shit about video games.
Then as a teen, even though my parents didn't give me pocket money, I managed to buy 4 different consoles (one after the other, selling one to get another one). If you didn't have the smarts to find ways to play more than 2 games a year (including shitty things), it was on you. You just didn't care enough, so don't come giving lessons on "how things were".
This thread is garbage and full of shitposting morons, that's why.
you had access to emulation as early as '98
any emulator at that stage was awful and not even close to accurate. also ZSNES couldn't emulate any special cartridge chips.
They'd figured out the market by this point and decided Americans wanted cartoony platformers and Japanese wanted RPGs so things got a little more predictable and boring.
The Mega Drive wasn't predictable or boring. Neither were the PC Engine, Neo Geo, X68000, arcades. Really it seems like just an SNES problem.
>The Mega Drive wasn't predictable or boring
>library is mostly platformers and punchers
Yes it was. I grant it didn't have all the SNES's fishing, VN, and shougi bullshit.
Nah, nobody would anticipate genre pushing games like trouble shooter and ranger x, treasure's output on the console was standout and iterations in established franchises like contra or new IP like rocket knight adventures made it apparent there was new and interesting things that can happen on these consoles. It's not as apparent on SNES with all of its horse race betting games.
>made it apparent there was new and interesting things that can happen on these consoles
Part of the problem is that the SNES just isn't anywhere close to as powerful as the other 16-bit hardwares, really it was barely an upgrade from the NES in terms of CPU capabilities. Developers wanting to experiment with new and interesting gameplay mechanics just did not have the freedom to accomplish those sorts of styles like they were on the Mega Drive. If they wanted to try on the SNES, they would have to shell out for an expensive expansion chip, which publishers often did not want to spend extra money on. This issue also bled over into multi platform games needing to be dumbed down considerably, so that they could still run on the stock SNES. The SNES held everyone back.
>muh CPU

>And those rascals decided the gaijin weren't worthy to have Dragon Quest 5-6.
no...they didn't get localized because nobody decided to pick them up. what people don't realize is the Japanese don't decide what games get an international release, it's a publisher's international branch that sees a game and decides oh hey we like this let's localize it.
Yeah at the time there was a growing resentment from Americans over Japanese games, it's sad but evolved into the situation we have today.
Not that FF fared better.

Now he lost it. The clown reveals himself.
The Amiga is fine if you accept that it was 1985 hardware and is more comparable to a Master System than a Mega Drive.
It's not even worth trying, friend. Now that someone said the magic word "Amiga", the SNES tendies are in that crazed fit of hysteria they get into the moment anyone suggests it might actually have some decent games. Nothing sets them off like the Amiga does, and any thread where the Amiga is mentioned is assured to be immediately derailed by these bitter and unsatisfied SNES fans. You can try to direct the discussion back to the more deserving parties like the Mega Drive, PC Engine, arcade games, but it doesn't matter, they're seeing red right now, the Amiga is all they're hyperfocus will let them fixate on. What a miserable existence, though, I suppose it's fitting for these people since they don't actually like video games, they just like they're dozen SNES tendie IP's and shitposting ceaselessly about great games they've never played.
>shitposting ceaselessly about great games they've never played
I've played Amiga games before, that's how I know they really are that bad.
LUV ME AMEEGER!
To you, even Mega Drive games are somehow "Amiga games". It's the only thing you can think about, 24/7, any time anyone brings up any games that aren't Nintendo shit, you're thinking about ways to shoehorn the Amiga into the discussion so you can go on one of you're crazed rants yet again. What a sad existence. The SNES is still shit and the Mega Drive, PC Engine, X68000, Neo Geo, and 16-bit arcade games still clear it easily, but that's alright for you because at least the Amiga is shit, so you can ignore all that.
>even Mega Drive games are somehow "Amiga games"
Kawasaki Superbike is so clearly made by Amiga developers that it might as well be one.
>X68000
Castlevania... the list goes on...
>Kawasaki Superbike is so clearly made by Amiga developers that it might as well be one
It's a spiritual sequel to an Amiga game, which the developers correctly identified had potential to make into an even better game on the Mega Drive, which they did, and the result is a highly regarded and excellent 16-bit racing game, exclusive to the Mega Drive, which fan's of racing games of the era (in other words not you, since you only care about Mario Kart and F-Zero) hold in high esteem.
>the list goes on...
Better version of Final Fight, better version of R-Type, Geographic Seal, Etoile Princess, better version of Ghouls and Ghosts, Cho Ren Sha, better version of Parodius, Marchen Maze, VASTLY better versions of Lagoon, Xak, Ys III, Emerald Dragon, and Phalanx, just to name a few. But of course you don't care about any of that, they're not Mario or Zelda, and that's all you really need or care about. You SNES fans are living such sad and sheltered lives, I'd almost feel sorry for you if you weren't always flinging shit at every opportunity.
What a pleb, regurgitating the same shit on every thread. Get the frick out of here.
'Tis a shame, because I'd love to get some Amiga recommendations.
>t. burger

Highly regarded by who? 10 minutes of 8 color racing is not very exciting.

Ports, ports and more ports. No reason to even play them in 2024.
>No reason to even play them in 2024.
There's no reason to play anything from the 16-bit era that isn't Mario, Zelda, or Metroid for you people, let's be honest.
Why emulate outdated arcade ports on a computer that emulates worse than the arcade machines? Makes no sense.
why do you pretend to care about Japanese computers, auster? Your first schizo posts on this board were on the PC threads, because you seethed about people posting about Japanese PCs and not britshard micros, remember?
>Geographic Seal
Geograph Seal.
This post is shit and naming an uncommon system like the X68k shows how a dishonest homosexual you are. Get out of here and never come back fricking spammer.
On an unrelated note, the x68k has some mouthwatering arcade ports.
Those ports would have been cool back in the 90s if you were Japanese and rich, but they're pointless today since emulation for the x68000 is worse than the arcade boards the games are ported from.
>mame enjoyer
Heh, glad I stuck with what's familiar.
MiSTer is better than MAME but even MAME is better than x68000 software emulation. You don't own an x68000.

I've heard it's also great for game dev stuff, so I'm getting one when I have the chance.
>The Amiga is fine if you accept that it was 1985 hardware and is more comparable to a Master System than a Mega Drive.
I know but a lot of Euros seeth that it couldn't run Doom or Sonic and they wish it was actually early 90s tech instead of mid-80s tech.
the Amiga's commercial heyday was in 90-94 so you see why they liked to believe it was from the same generation of hardware as the Mega Drive when it was closer to the NES and Master System.
What are you even talking about?
The Amiga had the same CPU as the Mega Drive
The CPU is probably the least important part of any game console. I know the Amiga was a computer but still, having an impressive CPU only gets you so far.
The graphics hardware is more Master System level in terms of its capabilities. Smaller, more limited sprites and only one background layer, also the screen scroll is not as simple or easy as it is on MD. The CPU is a bit slower too and gets bottlenecked by the memory mapped video.
>The CPU is probably the least important part of any game console
It did matter in this case because the SNES was a royal PITA to code for due to the CPU's silly 64k memory segments like a DOS PC while the Mega Drive had flat memory.
And yet the DOS PC surpassed the Amiga just as the SNES surpassed its competition
Well yeah, it was a M$ OS.
When are they going to find a way to filter these eurojank larpers like they did to the Baskin Roberts homosexual

Holy god this game sucks. It's clearly yet another random-ass platformer they slapped R&S sprites in after getting the license because it doesn't seem to have anything else to do with the show. The NES version is way better.
>platformer
I played the game, and it's more like a poor-man's beat 'em up.
Time Warp is the only R&S game that was kind of ok.
>The NES version is way better
Unfortunately it was a very late NES release so not many people actually played it. Convoluted as frick but it doesn't feel as low effort as the SNES version.
Sometimes a late NES release is better than none. (Great music, too.)
There's actually a common theme with Asterix games and having killer soundtracks.
I sampled this one but I wasn't a fan of the controls or waiting 15 seconds at the start of a new game to generate the map. Should have been left on PC where it belongs.
this version is funny because Koei didn't consider the Zulus a real civilization and just replaced them with Japan instead
plus in one of the Uncharted Waters games you can rip off African natives by selling them useless junk for gold. damn Koei were racist.
My SNES was a hand me down from my uncle.
He had Star Fox, Sim City and about 20 sports games, several being the same game but for different years...
They all looked the same, played the same, sounded similar...
So I had a really bad impression of sports games that has never been cleaned up
Blame EA, unfortunately. They made "sports sim"-type stuff.
Yeah there was hockey and american football and it was all the same shit.
He had no Mario games at all or any fighting games, just pure sports slop.
He gave me his N64 the next year and it was the same shit, but had Duke Nukem 64. Again, no Mario at all.
>Duke Nukem 64
Close enough, boomer shooters are usually a good time.
Your uncle might have been that mythical and horrible creature called a "normalgay." These individuals are content with nothing more than the annual EA sportsslop releases.

My dad plays those kinds of games, and even HE thinks they suck.
Considering he ended up cheating on my aunt with two women at the same time and was a policeman, maybe he was a normalgay.
oh well, all cops are extreme normalgays anyway. you pretty much can't get hired by a police department unless you were in the military or played high school sports.
Rural areas in particular encourage young folks to get into the police biz.
>t. Michigander
how does jarpig slop make you smarter and more highly evolved?
It teaches you how to read and slow down, but that's as far as I can tell.
>I can show you Magic Knight Rayearth
I always find it funny how we didn't get localization of the SNES version of this game but we did get both Sega versions somehow (even if there was nobody around to play the poor Saturn version).
>but we did get both Sega versions somehow
Even then we almost didn't get the Sega CD one because Tom Kalinski and his crew of chucklefricks wanted to reskin it as a Sanic game until they got a bunch of petitions from fans begging them to localize MKRE as it was.
>Sanic
I would've bought it.
Are you confusing Popful Mail with Rayearth?
he sounds like he is. yeah we know Magic Knight Rayearth was literally the last US Saturn release ever and it's still bewildering how it did get released at all.
Wasn't it an early jap game anyway
90s weebs got shit done
I like Mario, Mother, Ace Attorney, Sonic, Daytona USA, Dead Rising 1 and Mario RPG.
What does that make me?
>But anon, don't you think Dynami Tracer is far more cool and patrician to play on your SNE...
This was a Square Satelliview release and it is translated if you're curious.
Japan isn't any more patrish, they only care about baseball and horse racing slop.
>horse racing slop.
Didn't SEGA use GTX 1080s to power a literal horse racing game?
I have no idea but I do know an entire ARM CPU was wasted on a SNES shougi cartridge.
>ARM
Shit, they used that to power a literal game boy.
>Wasted
Classic pleb post. Then again, this thread is ultra trash.
This, everyone has this whole perception that somehow Japan is some country where everyone has elevated taste and is into patrician shit. The reality is, Japan is like any other country as far as generic shit, replace licensed cartoon shovelware with licensed anime shovelware, football/basketball/hockey shovelware with baseball/fishing/horse racing shovelware.
The bad thing about SNES library is that they had the Japanese market figured out by that point and realized what they want is anime and sports shovelware while with the Famicom they were still experimenting and stuff hadn't become formulaic yet. The Japanese PS1 library was then the SNES on steroids. So much trash and non-game software while most of the Western library for both consoles is at least actual games.
I've seen stacks of NES Golf and Tennis 20 cartridges high in flea markets.
The arguments are getting weaker with every post. Stop shooting your foot and be quiet, pleb.
Exactly, even the VDP is capable of Mode 7-like effects.
I just can't get into Star Trek for some reason and these games would probably bore me to death.
This game was released in Japan as Shin Star Trek The Next Generation over a year after the North American release and it has a larger ROM and some other upgrades.
there was a NES TNG game as well but it was a late one from '93 that nobody played also it's a cheap shit UNROM cart which would be equivalent to a 4 megabit SNES game
The NES/FC definitely has more deep cuts in it while the SNES library despite its size is a bit more shallow. I also find the amount of licensed sportsslop in there disturbing.
Someone got lazy with the "shovelware" posting. Your arguments are incredibly stale and this thread is just as dead as the moderation.
>ew, I don't like crappy cartoon game and generic sports game
>Whoa! Is that... a mediocre anime game? A horse betting sim I can't understand? Holy shit, this is great!
Who are you quoting?

I checked his playthrough of this Doraemon game. Kek he has the same chink SNES Flash cart as me. Except it seems like he's using the RGB out. Anyway this game does have moonrunes it's not like the Famicom Doraemon.
oh yeah that game. i think it was the same team that did Challenger.
One of the real early Famicom games to use 128k ROM.
The action Doraemon game is decent-ish imo, also it must be one of the firsts to mix 3 different genres (I think Challenger only had 2 and the sidescrolling stuff was minimal; anyway I'm not surprised it's the same devs); but the RPG is quite fun. It even has a bad ending you can getat the VERY start of the game if you just decide to keep saying "No" when Doraemon asks for help
There are three more SNES Doraemon games. Nobita to Yousei no Kuni is a relatively crude 4 megabit game but they get more sophisticated later on.
>all this austtaliakun samegayging
I knew it was him behind all these famibot posts.
Poor guy.
But it's cool seeing nintendo games on the catalog anyway, it's like a joke on him, he wants people to "wake up" and start hating nintendo, but he posts nintendo.and /vr/ hates him instead.
Australia kun and assembly language LARPer don't actually exist, they're just weird /vr/ boogeymen.
I don't know if they exist or not but the "three times" autist ended up being an amiga fan, suspiciously similar to past shitposts of someone also mad at the snes to irrational levels and also amiga fan.
I can tolerate baseball, hockey, etc games but goddamn, frick racing games. Even IRL racing puts me to sleep.
Bit funny that they released this as Ys III considering we did not get any of the other Ys games.
Hey guys, this gay didn't have a Turbo Grafx CD!
>CD
>Not DUO
NGMI
the SNES took a while to get off the ground. by the end of 1991 it had less than 60 games out and things didn't really take off until '92 when the trickle of games turned into a flood. it was expensive in the beginning and launch units had significant reliability issues.
>and launch units had significant reliability issues
Was that the ones with the separate sound board that the CPUs always shit themselves?
Yes they had a lot of issues with those. The launch Famicom had issues too and had to be recalled. Nintendo were never very good hardware designers which is why since the N64 they just buy a preexisting chipset and build a console around it.
I mean the PS1/PS2 launch units were crap as well.
Imagine bumping this garbage thread. Shameful display.
I disagree, it's a great thread. Like minded people should be allowed to talk about why we don't like the SNES, just the same as you people constantly shitting on the Amiga or ZX Spectrum is allowed and encouraged here. If it triggers you so badly to see that not everyone is sucking off Nintendo's dick constantly like you are, then hide the thread.
>Amiga or ZX Spectrum
Thanks for proving anon's point.
It's funny how thoroughly the point goes right over you're heads, even just pointing out that people on this board constantly shit on the Amiga and ZX Spectrum sends you into a frothing rage, totally incapable of comprehending the discussion whatsoever. I don't even like the Amiga or the ZX Spectrum all that much, they're okay at best, the Mega Drive, PC Engine, Neo Geo, X68000, and arcade titles all clear them quite handily though, but again, I don't expect you to be able to understand any of this post whatsoever, the fact that I'm not joining in on you're shit party on the Amiga and ZX Spectrum has put you into that culty maniacal fit that you SNES guys get into, all rationality is out the window. Being a fan of the SNES, N64, or GameCube is a mental disorder, I don't know what it is about those systems specifically, but there are no casual fans of them, they're all frothing fanboy lunatics. Quite funny since none of them have shit for a games library worth standing behind.
It's okay auster. Time to let it go.
Tell your family you need the meds.
>frothing
>clear
Why do you like these words so much?
Auster being auster.
>noooo but I don't like the speccy that much! i'm a fan of the X68K even though I actually hate it because it's not made in bongistan!
The removal of the IP counter really made auster think he could overtale the board. Silly osto.
It's over auster. People still like SNES games, while only "hobbyist" scene nerds care about bong micros. Once you're all dead, it's over, while SNES will keep being remembered for hundreds, maybe thousands of years or more, as long as video games exist.
It's time to say good-bye.

What a banger
Why he keeps trying to push that the Super Nintendo was filled with sports games when everybody knows the Genesis/Mega Drive had a ton of them?
Everyone already associates the Genesis with being the "sports" console. Problem happens when they act like the SNES had all these awesome weeb Japan-only hidden gems when it didn't really have that and it had proportionately as much licensed sports shovelware as Genesis.
>"The SNES wasn't a sports cons...ACK!"
>"ACK...ACK!!!"
Did you really just post Nintendo's own propaganda as an argument
Yesn't, since Nintengays often do Nintendo's bidding without even realizing it.
Auster's obsession with the SNES is weird.
I think it's a neat little console, mainly because there isn't as much homebrew compared to the Genesis.
While we're on this subject, I have the same problem with my SNES AC adapter with it being very stubborn about not working unless you jiggle it a certain way and I think I also have broken capacitor leads in there. I'd like to fix it and probably change out the 30 year old cap with a fresh one. Problem is I don't know how to solder. I can get a refurbed AC adapter on Ebay with a new cap installed but then I'd be stuck with the old one sitting around.
Wat do? Fix my existing AC adapter or get refurbed one?
you can find plenty of refurbed SNES power bricks online, a lot of people don't bother fixing broken ones
Get a refurbed brick if you can't solder.
what scares me is how he says the screws are really really hard to remove
Why would you bother if you can't solder?
Electrolytics are the first thing to suspect when an electronic device stops working (eg. I put it in the closet 10 years ago and now it won't turn on). I recently fixed my turntable (a Linn Axis) by replacing four large electrolytics.
I agree but in this case his power brick probably had the capacitor leads come loose from being dropped so it only makes intermittent contact.
right. well in any case it would still be good to install a new filter cap in the power brick while fixing it.
bump
thx, anon :3
Which console from the 1990's would be ideal for me?
>I hate pokemon
>i hate nintendo
>i hate ocarina of time
>I hate game boy
>I hate the N64
>anti-nintendo console
>console with anti-nintendo design throughout
>console with anti-nintendo games
The rope
Genesis (Late 80s), NeoGeo AES, 3DO, Jag, PSX, Saturn, and Dreamcast.
thanks anon
No prob, I'm always doing my research 😉
a different hobby
>You can talk shit about the NES, SNES, MD/GG, Saturn, PS1, PS2, XBOX
>But if you make a thread talking shit about the cube or the N64, it gets deleted
what's the deal with that
Outrage threads to keep the traffic higher
Being able to speak against the SNES is new, these threads used to be deleted as well. It would seem that enough different people were expressing disdain towards the SNES that moderation has been forced to shift to allow these threads, to reflect the changing tide of popular opinion against the SNES. It's really quite refreshing to see, finally we are able to freely share our opinions.
oh I don't complain that you can shittalk those systems
I complain that you cannot shittalk two specific systems for god knows why
Shittalking consoles is always the same moronic console warring and deserves to be deleted. The death of the IP counter is the worst.
It will never work, auster.
People always console warred, it was always allowed.
What happens now is that the problem deepene due to the IP counter removal, allowing more samegayging as seen itt
LOL you would be quite disappointed if there were an IP counter, maybe you'd finally realise that there aren't nearly as many SNES lunatics these days as there once were. Who am I kidding, you would probably just continue to live in you're delusion and make up fantastical stories about how it's all still one person, just posting from multiple IP's. The tides are turning and you are losing, and I could not be more pleased to see it.
With enough time and enough people speaking against those systems, I think the tides will turn against them just the same.
You've been at it for years, auster. You will die and the super nintendo will continue to be enjoyed by generations to come (unlike the amiga or spectrum).
This thread is more about making fun of you rather than shitposting the super nintendo.
To illustrate my earlier point here was part of my randomly generated list of NES games to play. there's 57 games here and i estimated that about 36 of them are interesting or worth playing.
what is with the empty slots?
>randomly generated list
What the hell? You'll end up with mostly trash no matter what console you pick. Use the Ganker's recommended wiki on Miraheze like a normal person
I know, The Mexican Runner had to suffer through a lot of shitty games to complete the whole US NES library but the SNES library would be far more brutal once you have to play every fricking yearly edition of EA sports games.
you would think the worst games would be like Wheel of Fortune or Sesame Street but they're not, you can beat those in 20 minutes. the worst would be dungeon crawler shit like Bard's Tale. those are a real slog to play.
For my SNES list I have 62 games here and I only came up with 15 good ones.
what would you consider good games? genuinely curious.
>Bronkie the Brontosaurus
what
Pff, this shitposting is super lame.
Yeah, I love all the retro vidya. (Whether it's arcades, consoles, or micros.)
You don't like japanese games, auster.
You don't like video games.
You have me confused with someone else, anon.
How can this guy be so stupid? It's crazy the level of moronism a console can generate in a person. Only a brutal execution can fix his illness.
Zoomer shitstains need to die in a fire. How does this garbage have 500 replies?
Take your chat room shit to your fricking discord.
>How does this garbage have 500 replies?
The IP counter has been removed. Samegays have no consequences.
