Re-uploaded my 2016 video that got my "How games are made series" started. I make a few corrections.
You've probably spent countless hours playing games from the 8 and 16 generation consoles but how were they made? In this Splash Wave mini-series, we unravel some secrets about how they were typically created. In this first episode we focus on the graphical aspects of the NES, Sega Mega-Drive/ Genesis and Super Nes.

This is one of these channels that I don't understand why it has a "Thanks for watching". No sir. Thank YOU for creating all these videos, it's so well fed to the viewer it should be played in actual university game creation courses.

That port of Street Fighter Alpha 2 was nothing short of a technical miracle- it’s hard to believe that they managed to get a game even the Saturn couldn’t perfectly handle, to run on a console that couldn’t perfectly run Street Fighter II in the first place.

@@gay4pay882you are trying to say some game developers weren't passionate about their creations? Just dudes in cubicles essentially? What an L take. That they don't deserve respect for their contributions to modern gaming? The countless hours of fun kids and adults have enjoyed for decades? Weird.

This channel is phenomenal. You should try to get a RU-vid series-deal so you can make more vids more frequently (and have other people to do the menial, non-creative bulk-work). The channel is infinity better than a vast majority of the bigger ones out there

@APRICEPRODUCTION 3 года назад

I agree the biggest hurdle is copyright though, any material that is copyright owned. Means he would need to apply for permission and copyright holders permission. The only issue with that is he would have to pay the makers generally in the process...

@carlossousa9413 2 года назад

I've never seen a channel with such production quality in my life. From the impecable written text, to the astonishing visual production (which is miles ahead of any channel on YT), to the incredible editing, but above all else the almost academic level of research into the VG industry at a time the Internet wasn't a thing and records were scarce (since the industry was much more niche than it is today). I am abolutely sure this series will one day be played at museums, and every university course will make reference to it. What an amazing and groundbreaking work sir. Congratulations and thank you for gracing us with your work.

It's sad that channels like this don't get the amount of subscribers or views that they deserve but millions of people flock to some of the most utter ridiculous crap that people post on RU-vid. The bell curve of intelligence is certainly demonstrated on RU-vid.

Another hardware extension for the Sega Megadrive/Genesis that was placed inside the cartridges rather than an extension for the machine itself, were the J-Carts such as MicroMachines, Pete Sampras Tennis and Super Skidmarks, which added extra controller ports. Then there's of course the Sonic & Knuckles Lock-On cart, as mentioned in your recent video in the Sonic series.
