      Most excellent video R.B. thank you for the time and effort it took to make and edit this video. P.s. SUPER NINTENDO RULES (even the purple parts...as a matter of fact, don't take my purple parts. It would be hard to turn off and on or reset or even play the games themselves without the purple parts...) PURPLE!

    I grew up with a Super Nintendo, but naturally "moved on" as the 64, PS1, Gamecube, Xbox 360, and so on as they came along. But then the Wii had the Virtual Console and so I went further down the SNES iceberg, playing games like Act Raiser, Super Castlevania IV, and Contra III for the first time, and that's when I really realized how great its games were and how well they hold up. Excellent video and choice of games to show off, man!

      I was lucky enough to have all 3 of those games growing up, but I have forgotten how hard it could be to get those games back in the day. Games didn't stay in stock, rental stores only had a limited selection, and used game stores were more rare. So even if you were aware of how good these games are, you might never have had the chance to try them out.
      The VC was great for that, and I'm glad you finally got the chance to try them! They're definitely highlights of the console library!

    It's worth remembering that the SNES's biggest rival, the Genesis (Megadrive), came out well over a year before the SNES, during a time of great technical innovation, and it still held it's own against Nintendo's juggernaut.

    • @inceptional
      @inceptional 6 місяців тому +4

      In some ways, I think that's even more apt for the PC Engine, which really was the first system to make that jump. It even did CD console gaming first too. Both SNES and Genesis were really just next obvious steps from the PC Engine in most ways. The Genesis certainly so, at it simply increased most of the same specs a bit and went with that (more sprites, more backgrounds, one more button, etc. But less colours). SNES introduced some very novel things like proper transparency, Mode 7, and its truly defining controller, but was ultimately just following the lead of the other two systems too when all is said and done (more sprites, more backgrounds, etc). So, yeah, even as a SNES fan first, I think I'd like to give PC Engine the credit it's due there for truly starting the best generation in console gaming imo.

      @@FatNorthernBigot Yeah, it certainly held its own technically in many ways. And it ultimately competed pretty much on a level playing field in America and ended up selling in very similar numbers, both in part because of solid hardware and also Sega's hardcore marketing too. It was a similar story in Europe and "other" territories also. Although, obviously, in Japan the SNES really stood on its own there.
      And I still think the PC Engine deserves a nod there too, as it came out long before the SNES and about a year before Genesis, and yet managed to output more colours on-screen than both, is capable of superior DMA than both [from what I'm told], and even has a faster CPU than that SNES and on par with the Genesis. That's dang impressive for an "8-bit" console. It certainly blew away the likes of the NES and Master System by a long ways when it launched. And it's remarkable how well it stands toe to toe with those two other giants at times. It even outsold the Genesis in Japan, although was a bit of flop elsewhere.
      The Neo Geo deserves a mention too, but that was a whole other beast. Still, I give it acknowledgement. :)
      I'd say in terms of system capabilities it would go like this: Neo Geo > SNES Genesis > PC Engine.
      In terms of libraries, based on quality plus number of games, it would go like this: SNES ≈> Genesis > PC Engine
      And in terms of hardware sales it would go like this: SNES > Genesis > PC Engine > Neo Geo.
      I guess that's likely why the SNES is ultimately regarded as the best system overall and even of all time by so many people.
      It was a very competitive generation to be sure, with a group of 2D consoles that have really help up.

    First off just want to say I love the channel! I find your videos to be much more entertaining than most retro videos I watch. I just thought I'd drop a little tip about Trinitrons. It looks like your TV might have a bit of the classic Sony "red push" issue going on from your footage. There's a setting in the service menu (labeled slightly different on different models) it usually goes by something to the effect of AXNT or AXIS. If you disable that, or turn down in some cases, you can greatly improve the amount of red push seen on the screen. Any-hoo, keep up the awesome videos and keep eating bananas my friend! 👌💪🍌 Just thought I'd throw that out there.

I was unfortunate with timing as a kid, I got a NES just before the SNES dropped; subsequently, I didn't have either SNES or MegaDrive but loved both. I'd have probably argued for SNES in the console wars as a kid, while still arguing both are great.
    With regard to the SNES' frame rate, I believe it fluctuated around 59fps, which can cause issues with some display scalers. That being said, my OSSC doesn't seem to have any problems with it.

Even more-so than the Nintendo Switch. Because as much as the praises are well deserved in being the best modern console by Nintendo, I find it hard to accept the Switch as THE Perfect Nintendo Console. Which to that, I'd say my heart leans more towards the SUPER NINTENDO ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM, for that title alone.

    The super Nintendo is a great console no doubt, I still prefer the sega Genesis myself though I can see a great argument to be made for greatest console of all time for either. They tend to be the best "all rounder" consoles of their time which helps a lot. The real question, of course, is which one is better?
    Here's my take, and I think it's a pretty darn good one. The SN is the guitar of the video game world and the Genesis is the banjo. As a musician of some experience, this comparison has a lot more going for it than you might think.
    Guitars are approachable, they have a great reputation, they are extremely flexible and fit into almost every genre of musiy one way or another. People tend to really like guitars because their is almost always something they like that you can play on a guitar. And they sound great too lol.
    Banjos are definitely more niche. They have a twang that puts people off sometimes. They aren't as popular and they aren't neary as flexible in genres. But if you play in a genre that works with the banjo(folk, old timey, bluegrass, country, etc) it is one of the most prominent instruments and more often than not takes the show. The banjo also gas many attachments that give it better tone, resonance, and volume like the resonator, flanges, and various tone rings. It's part of the banjo's identity.
    Now just think of all the parallels between these instruments and consoles and tell me I'm wrong.
    My conclusion would thus be this. Like the guitar, the SN is probably the right console for you and will do whatever you'd like, but the Genesis like the banjo inarguably does some things better and if you like that kind of genre(like music) you probably will prefer the Genesis, especially if you like the twang of it's sound card like I do :).
    Last of all, it should be noted that instead of pitting these consoles against each other i think just like the guitar and banjo, they are even better when you put them together. Let them work as a team and you will get the best experience from both. "Dueling Banjos" often uses a guitar because the sounds compliment each other so well, and like the song which has a playful back and forth "duel" they always come together and play their best as a duet.

    I really have to give it to the Snes and always have, bias and non bias. It is just absolutely superb in all categories! To be honest the 16 bit era is superior to what came next, and I think that the ease of use is the driving factor. Little to no load times, plug a game in and you are good, people tend to forget that aspect often. We waste so much time in loading, as great as the generations after were, they take more time starting and transitioning. The games were solid and many are works of art, it is a close call between Snes and Genesis. It is all speculation but I think the Snes really holds its own in contest, without needing much debate to back up it's credentials.

  • @Webhead123

    Your points are pretty much identical to mine for the SNES. It represented sort of the pinnacle of the 2D era of home consoles before the next generation would make the dramatic shift into 3D space. The graphical fidelity possible on the system was a pretty big leap from the 8-bit consoles before it and the sound and music were also greatly improved. It has a large and varied library with an incredible amount of third-party support. It managed to come fairly close to bringing many arcade experiences into the home, particularly with the fighting game craze of the '90s. It also had simple, accessible and reliable hardware with no pointless gimmicks and possibly the best (2D) controller ever made. Obviously, everyone's opinion on a subject like this is going to be influenced by their age and relative experience but however you slice it, the SNES has more than its fair share of reasons to be considered among the best.

But I would also agree with other comments that point out that the best console seems to be the one that kids grew up playing. BUT, as an example and argument for the SNES I would put DK country 1-3 up against any other DK games that came after and ask you to find a better one. There’s something to be said about the limitations of a console’s hardware. I would argue that the move to 3d radically changed video games, and not necessarily for the better. The concise and creative uses of the limited 2d hardware really set this generation apart from all future consoles, some of which was lightly broached in this video.

      (with all the sub-genres included it was much more even, unlike below)
      adventures -- SNES (close call with SMD, with SNES just having a bit more of them)
      beat 'em ups -- SMD -- (Streets of Rage series, Golden Axe series, The Punisher, Hyperstone Heist, Two Crude Dudes and more)
      fighters -- NG -- (the creator of the original Street Fighter, 1987, left Capcom and joined SNK, to start a beautiful legacy)
      first-person shooters -- SMD/SNES tie -- (Zero Tolerance and Bloodshot vs Doom and Wolfenstein 3D)
      light gun -- SNES -- (not much contest here)
      platformers -- SMD/SNES tie -- (action-platformers fare better on SMD, while SNES platformers are more methodical)
      pinball -- PCE -- (Crush series, Time Cruise and another one, can't remember the name right now)
      puzzle -- NG/PCE tie -- (NG has many greats, PCE has more unique ones)
      racing -- SMD/SNES tie -- (mode 7 kart-style racers are best on SNES, while simulated racing is better on SMD)
      rpg -- SNES -- (unbeat here)
      run 'n gun -- NG -- (Metal Slug series, Shock Troopers series and Ninja Commando)
      shoot 'em ups -- PCE -- (there's so many of them!)
      sports -- SMD -- (most, except PCE, have at least some great sports games, but SMD has more of them)
      strategy -- SMD -- (with turn-based it's about even with SNES, but has better real-time strategy games)
      SMD and SNES have all genres from that era pretty much covered, with NG and PCE dominating a few.

    The SNES may be the greatest “all around” console of all time. While the technology for vast open worlds didn’t exist back in the 90s, I would honestly argue that these large expansive worlds have not proven to be more fun than anything the 16-Bit era had to offer.
    Games for the SNES ranged from being something you could plug and play to sprawling RPGs that had epic stories to tell. Sports games, like Madden and NBA Live, could cover full seasons, while Super Mario Kart and NBA Jam allowed for countless hours of competitive arcade style fun.
    The creativity that developers displayed was truly mind blowing at the time. 3D games? Star Fox and Doom showed everyone that door to the future. Large detailed graphics? Hey, Donkey Kong County and Toy Story replicated the feel of an interactive Pixar movie come to life.
    Let’s not forget fighting games. While not the first to do so, the SNES gave, what I consider to be its most important title of the system’s life; Street Fighter II. For anyone who grew up in the 90s and frequented arcades, the fact that Street Fighter II was playable in your living room was astounding. The fact that it was an awesome port that featured just about everything from the arcade only solidified the impression. It even forced the direct competition to change controller options in order to allow for their somewhat lacking versions of the game to even play properly (I’m looking at you, Mr. Sega Genesis). Heck, even the PC Engine had to release a six button controller for their version of Street Fighter II in Japan.
    It got even better (for Genesis fans) when Mortal Kombat dropped the next year. Now you had arcade competitions AND bloody fatalities at home, too. Mortal Kombat II and Killer Instinct followed suit. Soon, the console market was flooded with “me too” fighting games, looking to take the crown from Capcom’s classic.
    None of this would have happened had the excellent port of Street Fighter II not found its way onto the Super Nintendo.
    While the Neo Geo was more powerful and the Genesis was expanding into the world of CD gaming technology, it can be argued that the SNES was the ultimate system. The sound capabilities, graphical effects, color palette, and controller came together to form the greatest all around system from a trusted brand, and all for $200.
    The legacy of the SNES can be found in every subsequent system since its release. Controllers are mostly modeled after the design of the SNES. Games have taken inspiration from Mario, Zelda, and Metroid more than any other games from the era.
    Sure, these arguments could be made for the NES, too; but I feel the SNES refined what came before it to a polished FL diamond. It was the perfect system for what any gaming fan was looking for. Other systems had their strengths, but the SNES had the library, the design, the ingenuity, the variety, the ability, and the quality that nearly all other consoles failed to meet.
    Because of this, in the contest of “SNES vs. Everything,” the Super Nintendo comes out on top.

    In terms of graphics/processing power... I love the SNES(Genesis and PCE) but I would have to give it to the Neo Geo for longevity(15 years?) and overall power. If Samurai Shodown on the SNES was 1:1 with the original Neo Geo version I would agree but the SNES version didn't even come close to the Neo Geo.

      Comparing a console game that was under $60 on a console over 200 bucks, to a machine priced around $600, with games costing upwards of $200. Interesting take there chief.

    I was born in '97 (which incidentally means I'm the same age as FFVII), so I didn't discover the SNES until I emulated games in my teens and later was introduced to the classics (and the controller) by the SNES Classic. Despite this, I would agree that it is definitely one of, if not the, greatest consoles of all time. I do agree that the Genesis had some fantastic games, though.
    Incidentally, my favorite _system_ to play overall is the Nintendo DS, which in a number of respects feels like a successor to the SNES while also doing enough outside-the-box stuff to be considered the Miss Frizzle of gaming -- it took chances, it made mistakes, and it got messy, but it provided a unique experience and in the end we all learned something from it.

      I think the reason why these systems (and the GBA, for that matter) tend to be so lauded is because they were at the perfect intersection of having enough power to do cool stuff and have beautiful pixel graphics, while also having a number of limitations that the devs had to devise ingenious solutions to solve, which led to a lot of really interesting games that looked great. I suspect the Genesis may also be in this category, but I am significantly less familiar with it so I can't say for sure.

    I agree with you on the SNES being my favorite. Yes, it helped that I was a teen in the 90's. And I believe they worked hard at being great with having stiff competition from the Genesis. Great times!
