Episode Notes:
1. Captured on the Analogue Super NT - except Kirby, which I used some old ZSNES footage I had. It's not emulated 100% correctly.
2. I used the Japanese version of Super Mario RPG because that's the one I own.
3. I always liked Final Fight but never considered it anywhere near as good as the Streets of Rage games. None of them.
4. It still amazes me that some of these came out as late as they did. You expected it to an extent because the SNES was 2 years after the Genesis, but with the new generation started, Nintendo hung on to its 16-bit throne as long as it could.
5. Check out the first Super Turrican as well. It's pretty good itself.
6. Ken Griffey Jr's Winning Run has a nasty pitching AI. It does not make it easy, especially in the games with the better teams.

Fun facts about SFA2 on the Snes. The pauses are not loadings... They have something to do with rushed and faulty audio programing. They recently fixed it with a patch over at Romhacking. After the fix, the game becomes a thing of beauty. Had they not botched it when releasing it, this version would have been the only home version without loadings. Something to think about.

I think Sega really hurt themselves releasing the 32X and Sega CD. Those 2 devices were pointless. The Saturn was good but when people saw the terrible quality of the 32X and Sega CD, I think that discouraged them from buying a Saturn and Dreamcast (Both terrific systems).

@EJHilt 5 месяцев назад

I thought this many years myself. If they supported the master system games more closely with the power base converter. Then convert budget title games aka the Sega CD to only do 2D games to the sega Saturn and then 3D full price games also in the Saturn with the hardware redone for better more easy writing / third party friendly software. Then have the Dreamcast with dual analog sticks with a DVD player. Then Sega would have been better off. Just simple changes that would save that company from heartache.

@chrislaustin 5 месяцев назад

I've been gaming since the late 70's, early 80's and the SNES is my favorite console of all time, and some of these late released games are part of the reason why. Some of these games I missed out on at the time as well, because they came along so late, but many of these are some of the best games the system had to offer. Thanks to the SNES installed base, many developers took the risk of releasing games later, in the hopes of making more with and established system(than fighting for peanuts with the next gen and a super small base).

@morganmedrano920 5 месяцев назад

Something that I feel is often glossed over when it comes to both the NES and the SNES. Nintendo didn't need console add-ons, they just upgraded the cartridges. It's chips get better and cheaper with time. Developing an addition to existing hardware is expensive. So SNES just upgraded games that needed the boost.

@lutherheggs451 5 месяцев назад

No different than people seem to ignore that the Genesis came out in 1989, the SNES didn't come out until 1991 so its really not that shocking that Sega would have to do something about the Genesis long before Nintendo needed to move on from the SNES. Even with both using older hardware, the Genesis would have had older hardware than the SNES

@shenglongisback4688 5 месяцев назад

Sega american made that mistake instead of put extra chips in the cartridges, but instead wasted money on add ons. Don't get wrong me wrong love the 32x and CD are awesome from a historically view point but since it uses the Megadrive as the base.

@llpBR 5 месяцев назад

@@lutherheggs451 Mega Drive was released in 1988 and the SNES was released in 1990, they are Japanese hardware and released there first. SNES games had additional hardware performance upgrades in their cartridges before the Mega Drive released their add-ons, in fact Nintendo had one in a game 30 days after the SNES released with Pilotwings (Dec 1990) to help with its Mode 7 rotation. Sega simply focused on add-on hardware rather than enhancement chips, its age had nothing to do with it.

Yes, for someone with a PC back then, this port would have been the worst playing. But from the perspective of someone who had never seen it before, or anything else like it, it was incredible, and I still remember turning off the lights in my room and sitting right close to the tv so I could explore the levels and gun down everything that moved.

@fernandomartinez4486 5 месяцев назад

The first time i played Doom, was this port. I never ever thought it was poorly done. The hard to see enemies, I just thought they were hiding or something, the slowness or low frame rate, I just thought that was simply how Doom Guy walked. If it wasnt smooth fluid, I just took it like that was how the game was (we were used to slowdowns in NES and Snes games). Seriously, I never ever thought the game was poorly made. And so I beat the game, and thought it was great. It was until late 2000's that i started to learn that it was a "bad" port... because of YT and other people's opinion. Yes, if you compare it to PC it is obvious whats wrong with the snes port. But my point is, my ignorance was a bless, I actually enjoyed and loved the game for what it was, before other more knowledgeable people came to say the game was bad.

I'm a Doom fanatic, I have all the playable versions of the original game, from PS1 and Jaguar to 32x. I have to be honest: SNES Doom is a guilty pleasure of mine, and it's quite enjoyable, specially with that soundtrack, and how the SNES controller fits the game perfectly. What sucks about the game is that you have to play it from start to finish, just like that. No saving states, and no passwords. Does anyone know why a password option was not included?

Very interesting topic. If you look at hardware sales, the 32-bit generation did not really take off until 1997, and the PlayStation truly exploded during Christmas 1997 and all through 1998 (ironically just when Dreamcast launched in Japan). On the other hand, 16-bit software sales crashed as soon as 1995, especially on the Mega Drive / Genesis. In recently found documents, we have internal discussion of SOA staff lamenting the sudden collapse of Genesis software in the USA. Nintendo software on the SNES were a clear exception to this trend thanks to DKC and Super FX games. In Japan, the Super Famicom led in software sales all the way until late 1995 (basically until VF2 came out on the Saturn). Things started going south from 1996.

@supersexysega 5 месяцев назад

Genesis software outsold Snes software in the U.S. from October to November 1995 51% to 49%. Hardware sales were 50.5% Snes 49.5% Genesis. Considering Nintendo was all in on the Snes at that point, it was extremely impressive Genesis competed so well late in the game. Lots of Genesis software in late 1994 into 1995 saw dissapointing sales numbers. 32x console sales cutting into Genesis software sales I wonder 🤔. This wasn't a Sega specific problem, though. Other than Donkey Kong, it was an industry wide disappointment for 16-bit sales. Tons of Nintendo, Capcom, Konami, and Acclaim software releases under performed at retail.

@Choralone422 5 месяцев назад

Late era SNES games like these and many more made me proud to stick with the SNES as my primary console through the majority of the 90s. Nintendo, unlike Sega, has a long history of staying the course on products that work and fairly quickly shelving things that don't work. I think that's one big reason why they're still around doing both consoles and games, while Sega nearly died over 20 years ago. I think some of the execs within Sega of Japan were always stuck in the mindset through the 80's and 90's of approaching the console market in a similar way as the arcade market with technology. In the arcade market it's easier to adopt new tech with a new crop of games developed specifically with that new tech in order to try and stay one step ahead of the competition. In the console world you can't do that with add-ons or premature console releases unless you want to fragment your customer base. Look into Sega's history with the SG-1000 series in Japan and it's add-ons and changes. They tried to do nearly the same thing in the 16-bit and early 32-bit generations worldwide and it largely didn't pan out well.

I had a Megadrive, my best friend had a Super Nintendo, so many discussions and comparisons in the playground. Otherwise, I think it is to be appreciated that Nintendo supported the SNES so late, but also that the N64 could have used a better starting line-up. There was often this dilemma when there was a change of generation. I remember Sony releasing Gran Turismo 6 on PS3 and not PS4 in 2013. Supporting the installed generation allowed to make more money, at the cost of not supporting the coming one. Nowadays, the games in this case can be cross-gen, for technical reasons, so it does not happen anymore.

@michaeloffgrid 5 месяцев назад

It's funny what people consider to be a late release. Doom came out for the SNES in September 1995, just after the console's fourth birthday (in NA). Imagine calling a Genesis game released in 1993 a "late release." Going by this metric, Sega absolutely did support the Genesis for a long time.

@SegaLordX 5 месяцев назад

It's late because the 16-bit generation had run into 32-bit generation full steam. In 1995, there were 5 new generation consoles on the market. And since the SFC had been dropped in 1990 in Japan, this console was still 5 years old when Doom released.

Late SNES games such as the ones mentioned here, highlighting SFA2, DOOM and DK3, even the usual suspects such as UMK3 were huge at the time. Personally, I think DOOM plays well enough, specially for the sacrifices that had to be made. I really enjoy both SFA2 and SNES DOOM to this day, it`s nostalgia, yes, but still impressive to see. I also recall that Spawn was a late release, maybe 1995 or so. There are demos on the Mega Drive for SFA2, Metal Slug and even KOF98, they are IMPRESSIVE, SFA2 uses the same sprites as the arcade original, the Genesis could have reached new heights with bigger ROM carts and if SEGA did what Nintendid, which was actually support their consoles until the end of their life cycle. Here in Brazil, it was very common to see SNES consoles all over, International Super Star Soccer Deluxe was huge, I also remember enjoying NBA JAM a lot against our colleagues at the time.
