As a brazilian gamer from the 90s, I feel that it's important to give a background fact of why South America loves Top Gear more than other racing games from this generation. In the 90s, Nintendo didn't had an official representative here, so most SNES had to be imported, which in conjunction with all the economic issues of the time, meant videogames were a luxury. But some people figured out they could rent out time for kids to play their videogames, and that turned into a large cultural background that we had large shops with nothing but TVs lined up with a console in each. The reason why people loved Top Gear at that time, is because unlike F-Zero, you could play it with a friend. And that means they could combine their allowance so that instead of each one paying to play for one hour each, they would play together for 2 hours. This kind of rent-a-time arcades are unheard of in north america and europe, because consoles were relatively cheaper, and even poor families were able to pay for them.

@josephking1502 10 месяцев назад

In the 2000's North America had LAN centers. Pretty much the same thing you are talking about but with computer games. Gaming PC's cost like $1,000+ back then. Not only was it cheaper to play at LAN centers (like $2 an hour) but it made it possible to play computer games with friends. Most popular game was probably Counter Strike. Some LAN centers also offered console gaming systems aswell...

Thank you for giving context! Is International Super Star Soccer 64 just as popular as the SNES variant over there?

@NibelungJ 10 месяцев назад

@@lextor4712 Not really, the N64 fever was Goldeneye and Mario Kart. At the time, people were playing FIFA and Winning Eleven/PES for soccer games. Mario Party got banned from my local arcade after 4 joysticks destroyed in one week, and we didn't had Smash.

Me and my dad OWNED one of this places, it grew up to 36 TVs, and it lasted all the way till the PS3 era, it became cheaper to run with CD based system with pirated discs, cause cartridges where EXPENSIVE and youll need to like a dozen of the popular ones (we sell them after a while when people stopped playing them, also N64 was a problem cause people wanted to play 4 at a time and the controllers kept breaking, matter of fact after the 16 bit era the only controllers that where durable where the dreamcast ones

When I was a kid growing up in the 90's I lived in South Lake Tahoe California. We had a video rental store called Video Maniacs that closed down and remodeled one year. I think in 94 0r 95. But they closed up for several months and had this big grand reopening. Much to the children's surprise the major remodel they did was committing a huge chunk of the store, maybe an entire 3rd of it, to rows of Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo consoles each connected to their own 13inch color TV. Then there was a room of its own with a projection screen, probably 6 foot by 6 foot and a stereo surround sound home theater system. In here were both a Genesis and Snes as well. The idea was that anyone with an account could rent a game for a dollar for the afternoon and play until the store closed if they wanted to. It was hugely popular for a couple of years. But by the time the Playstation and N64 generation hit they only put out a single PSX and a couple N64s. And the big room had an Atari Jaguar. Nobody really cared as the novelty wore off after some time during the 16 bit generation and I think Video Maniacs shut their doors in 1999 or the early 2000's but I always wondered where they got the idea for this from. Guess the owner must have taken a trip to Brazil at some point in the early 90's and was inspired... but as a kid from a poor family in the 90's, I loved it, and played so many matches of Mortal Kombat 2 there.

Here in Argentina during the '90s we did not have access to the consoles or the original cartridges due to their high costs. Most of us had some clone of the Japanese Famicon (renamed "Family Game") and some clone version of the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive (in my case, the "Super Senga"). Same for the cartridges in both cases (clone copies that came without a box and without an instruction manual). Since there were no SNES clones, only those who could afford it (a small minority) were lucky enough to have it. I remember that "the rich kid" in my class (son of a businessman who owned a supermarket chain) was the only one who had SNES and Game Boy. For most of us it was an unknown (and much desired) world. The same thing happened to us with N64. That's why I appreciate these videos, now that I'm older (I'm currently 36) I'm discovering the wonderful world of the SNES, something I couldn't do as a child. Thank you!

Super Metroid left an indescribable impression on me when I played it at like 11 or 12 years old, and it easily still holds up today. The atmosphere, non-linear progression, graphics, that sense of triumph when you discover new upgrades and abilities that allow you to access new parts of the map. That heart breaking moment at the end when you realize the magnitude of your new friend's sacrifice. I'll never forget that sound. I will forever sing its praises. In my opinion it's the greatest game ever made. The SNES really is the greatest console of all time, and I've played them all.

@RangoTheMercenary Месяц назад

I was 14 and played it in 2003 for the first time. Coming hot off of Metroid Prime and Fusion, I had to give it a go. Got it for $20 at my local GameStop and it was the last copy available. I've beaten it so many times since.

I can go months, even years without thinking about Chrono Trigger, but then I hear simply a few seconds of that soundtrack, like at the end of this video, and it really transports me. Not to my memories of first playing it, but to its actual world. I listen to other OSTs more, and that may be because it’s simply too much to handle as a casual, background listen. There is something so evocative and emotional about it, like fantasy made real. Such heart and soul to it. Still genuinely so moving. Then I remember the lone sound of that swaying, ticking clock. Not saying anything remotely new here, of course, but god, what a masterpiece.

I played it for the first time very recently and I was absolutely amazed of how forward thinking this game is. The mix of genres, the simple and intuitive UI, the easy way to save and how fast you can play it make it feel like a game made yesterday. And yes, u can be a bit easy, but when you don't have much time can be a blessing. That's without mentioning the astounding music and the timeless pixel art. I'm really surprised with this game, to me it should be even in the top 10 of the SNES.

@alejandromedrano6366 10 месяцев назад

I wouldn't say this one is an essential, but I still recommend playing it. Super Adventure Island II is an plattform-adventure game (no shit), one of the last in the Adventure Island series until Adventure Island the beginning came out as Wii ware in 2009 Tina and Master Higgins went to their honeymoon, but when a tropical storm hit their raft, they got separated and both lost their memories. Tina was about to marry another man when a hawk kidnapped her, and after Master Higgins heard her screams, he embarked on an Adventure through different islands to Chase the captors, recover his memories and save his girl It plays pretty much like Zelda II, since the main weapon are the swords, though you can choose some others like the boomerang, a shovel or your bare fists, every Island is very unique and different where you will find the right equipment to go thorugh it , get the loot, beat the boss and find your way to the next Island I feel the need to let more people know about it and play it since I feel like no one has played it, like no one talks about it, no one even mentions it, and therefore no one makes romhacks for it, just a spanish translation patch, which I find weird for such a solid fun game, despite being so different to its antecesors

@@joyasmusicales603 Certainly, the Mega Drive undeniably boasts an impressive library. The hardware that Sega assembled in 1988 was groundbreaking. Yet, for me, the Mega Drive's narrative is rife with "what if" scenarios. What if the Mega Drive had found success in Japan akin to its triumph in the USA? Imagine the array of sensational titles we might have witnessed. What if there hadn't been peripherals like the Sega CD and the 32X, both with tepid support and treated merely as technological curiosities? What if Sega had introduced a genuine hardware upgrade mid-life for the Mega Drive? It could maintain backward compatibility with old titles, but all new games would be tailored for this hardware update, perhaps incorporating the NEC V60 or Motorola 68EC020. And what if Square and Enix had thrown their support behind the Mega Drive? Countless fantastic titles might have been developed. If Konami and Capcom had treated the Mega Drive on par with the SNES, how different might the gaming landscape have been? The fascinating aspect is observing the current Mega Drive community actively exploring these "what ifs," developing games, and rectifying poorly executed ports from that era.

@D-Fens_1632 10 месяцев назад

The SNES was the pinnacle of the old world 2D gaming experience. You finally had the graphics and processing power and amount of buttons to properly recreate what had only been in arcades. I got an N64 in 1997 and a PS1 a couple years later but never played them much for long, I lost interest in games when things went 3D (and games took months to complete). I still play SNES games though. Though my GBA SP gets the most use.

@lahma69 10 месяцев назад

There's no competition for me.. The SNES is my favorite retro game console of all time. While I imagine nostalgia plays some role in that, I owned nearly all of the game consoles following it up until (and including) the PS2 and Xbox 360 (excluding the Sega Saturn and all of the low production consoles like the Jaguar and 3DO), but none of them had the impact, fun, or memories that the SNES did. There just wasn't any other console that had games that transported me into another world like so many titles on the SNES did (A Link to the Past, Final Fantasy 2 and 3, Chrono Trigger, Act Raiser, etc). It will always be the golden era of gaming to me, despite also having so many wonderful memories attached to other consoles and games like the N64 and Ocarina of Time, Super Mario 64, and others.

I've always thought that DKC3 is weirdly underrated compared to the 2nd game, or even the original. I think it may even be the best of the trilogy. Having Dixie and Kiddie to play as rather than Diddy and Dixie was much more interesting (since Diddy was too much like Dixie except he couldn't fly), the graphics were possibly the best on the entire console, and I loved all the open world exploration elements like the upgradeable water vehicles, the hidden banana birds, and the bear brothers.

Thus by doing so it had erased all of our saved games. Still brings a tear to my eye thinking about it...
