    oh wow.. didn't know Super Nintendo cut out that much frames of animation! You can definitely see it on Haohmaru's Tornado projectile. There's only like 2 frames on SNES, where as the Genesis looks to be a lot more.

    I love how you analyze the games and make them justice, i've seen lots of people bashing the SNES version of Samurai Shodown because of the smaller sprites, and i've seen lots of people bashing Run Saber because is "just a rip off", it's like they don't even want to give those games a fair chance, gotta love how the plots are always funny, creative and blend in perfectly with the reviews.

    • @SailorPalutena
      @SailorPalutena 4 роки тому +3

      Genesis is better for being more faithful to the arcade/NeoGeo, specially the music. People bashing the SNES version is because of that. Preference for the SNES version is just a matter of 'opinion' and shouldn't be taken in consideration.

    • @THENAMEISQUICKMAN
      @THENAMEISQUICKMAN 3 роки тому +4

      Really, most arcade fighting games are better on Genesis/Mega Drive despite them usually having worse visuals. People just go "well you COULD buy a six button controller but I didn't feel like it so SNES wins". Street Fighter 2, UMK3 and SamSho are all better on Genesis/Mega Drive simply because the gameplay is more similar to the arcade, which means you're actually playing something closer to the real thing. Anybody who took Street Fighter 2 seriously could tell you about how so many links and combos that you can do in the SNES port just don't work on the arcade and vice versa.

      @@THENAMEISQUICKMAN This is simply not true. I tried REALLY HARD to find these said combos that it's possible on Genesis Street Fighter but not on Snes, couldn't find anything. Considering how Genesis version is just a washed down port os Snes, I doubt that they tweaked the physics in the code. I play A LOT of both versions, they play exactly the same (which is a good thing for genesis, as you can see in the very game being compared here, Genesis Samurai Showdown is inferior to Snes because it changes a lot in the gameplay, comparing both versions to the arcade).

    The explanation they gave on that time for Genesis version missing Earthquake was to make other characters bigger. This explains the tiny chars on SNES too (because Earthquake was the biggest one as possible, others would be smaller).

      Are you saying that it's not a memory issue, but rather that with the current size of the Genesis characters, they wouldn't have been able to add in Earthquake because the Genesis wouldn't be able to handle it to well? So they would have had to make Earthquake smaller, and as a result make the other characters smaller?

    This one was fun since I had no idea which way it was going to go. Both versions have nice music based on the clips here. A shame about the SNES voice samples. How strange the SNES loses there since voice samples are typically a weakness for the Genesis. I also enjoyed the setup for the episode with the potions and how easily anything is illogical is brushed aside, which is good for a few laughs. Good job as always.

    Personally for me the Sega genesis version is better for me , the sounds and music from the genesis I like them a lot better than the Snes , the Snes music some of them are good remix but the Genesis to me sounded more like the arcade, even tho earthquake is missing from the sega genesis version is still a good port since is uncensored and more accurate to the arcade .
    Still the snes is good as well but not as great as the sega genesis version but thats my opinion.

  • @justanotheryoutubechannel
    @justanotheryoutubechannel 4 роки тому +8

    It’s interesting now the arcade version used lots of sprite scaling techniques, and it’s kinda shame that the SNES version didn’t try to use a Mode-7 layer to allow scaling. I don’t think it would’ve been easy to pull off due to not really being designed for that but it would’ve looked really cool if it could, and been closer to the arcade.

    "The Samurai are great dancers, they have a potion for that!" Absolutely fantastic! The Sega Genesis is a better game even if it's missing one character. The one thing that's baffling too me is the Sega CD version. It should by all rights be equal to that of the AES. Complete with the zooming effect, but they Tokai didn't do the port justice.
    The Sega Genesis alone should be able to technically do Samurai Showdown if it had the storage capacity. Both consoles had the same processor setup (Motorola 68K and a Z80 Zilog Zilog co-processor). This is what gives the Genesis the ability to emulate every effect the Snes can display including Mode 7. Now, the Genesis's 68K processor is slower than the Neo Geo's; However, that is where the Sega CD comes into play. It's 68K is not....but again they just ported the Genesis version with CD sound...not cool.
    Addendum- Galford's stage sounds awful on the Snes. What did they do to it?

    Just realized today (well, with a friend's help) that some Genesis moves are totally different then arcade. Get Haohmaru and check his sword movements (weak, medium, strong) on arcade, SNES, and then check the same in Genesis (different on this). More interestingly, while the Sega CD version lacks Earthquake too, it's a new port (by JVC), and it preserves the arcade movements.

    i grew up playing the Genesis version of SamSho.
    the Genesis version had some attacks missing like Haohmaru's forward stab (medium slash/punch), Galford's jumping spinning kick (roundhouse kick), etc. and, of course, it lacked Earthquake, a character i was never interested in.
    still it was one of the better NeoGeo-to-Genesis ports at that time.

    • @iwanttocomplain
      @iwanttocomplain 4 місяці тому +1

      That's true about the forward slash which is a really useful move. Earthquake isn't a great character and I gave up trying to learn him because he slows the game down.
      The snes version of this game is too slow to be really exciting but it is very strategic and can have some exciting moments.

    Another fun episode...thanks for making these videos!
    One thing I wanted to point out though...SNK games are traditionally four button games. The layout is A,B,C,D so its kind of odd that chose to make the games six buttons...typically in an SNK fighting game you would press A + B, or C + D for high level attacks, so the way they laid out the controller schemes on the SNES and Genesis kind of doesn't make any sense.

      It's totally weird that you had to hold down the L/R buttons on the SNES controller just to make a hard attack...

    I love the continuity errors in the episodes. It adds to the charm. Content is key and u guys smash it. Would love to see these up against the Neo Geo version. Would guess Neo Geo is better though

    Both games were ported by Takara, so keep that in mind. If something is missing, it means Takara decided it wasn't possible on the console.

    Great episode guys! While I do own the the Sega version, I'll have to keep an eye out for the Super Nintendo one. Since you did a Neo Geo ported game, why not compare King Of The Monsters 1 or 2. Keep up the good work! Cheers!

    That 6 button controller... I wonder how different the Genesis catalog would have been with that pad from the beginning. I also wonder why Sega didn't add shoulder buttons to the 6 button pad, being it a response to Super Nintendo's gamepad.

    • @avideogamemaster
      @avideogamemaster 8 років тому

      probably because they wanted a whole new idea for their game pad. And to be fair, at that time (1989), no game needed more than 2 or 3 buttons

    oooohhh I can't wait for the next game if the hint is anything to go by it definitely was one of my favourites on the SNES...heh I remember buying it when a video rental store was going out of business after watching it on Video Arcade top 10...the Canadian Video game show that spends more time then watching people play video games...lol, anyway true story I played the game ALOT and once I was messing around with the options and didn't realize I set it for the hardest difficulty setting, so I played through it wondering why everyone was so tough but I pushed onward and sure enough it gave methe ending screen indicating I beat it on the hardest difficulty...lol I was so proud of myself and from that point on when I still had it I only played it on the hardest difficulty...that game gave me so much nostalgia as a kid, so I can't wait to see what you have planned for your next episode...well take care!

    Holy crap, 2:54 to get to the actual video. This is the first episode I see from you guys so I'm not sure how you do your videos but for a newcomer I would cut that fat off. The actual game information was good.

    Damn, that's crazy that you guys throw out an Alan Thicke reference, and then days later he dies. Weird.
    I haven't played either version, but despite the Genesis having bigger sprites which look amazing, the SNES just has more. And that music is excellent! I'm gonna hafta play this one.
    Great episode! The end bit was great!

    Though I have both Japanese SFC(SNES) and US Genesis versions, I stick with playing Samurai Shodown games on my PS2 via the Anthology, Saturn, or PS1. Though I did recently add the Gameboy Sam Sho 1 to my collection (will pick up the other, based on SS3 at a later time), both the first and second GB titles are surprisingly fun for the portable.
    The 16 bit versions, while both good, just seem to lack that oomph that drew my attention in arcades back in the day while I was there to play Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter II.

      The Genesis version prolly could've retained almost everything intact from the Neo Geo version if only they had used a larger cart (48 megs) instead...
