ValenKnight Square. Cost too much money. In fact that is why there is only 21 games vs 30. It cost a lot more money for those SNES third party titles. If they got Chrono Trigger it would have been $100+ for the system, or they would have had to cut more titles down to 16-18 total. I’m personally sad we didn’t get Turtles In Time. But I think this is the best they could do overall while keeping the price under $100
Super Metroid is Nintendo's: they don't have to pay license to anyone. But Chrono Trigger is Square's, and Square has been VERY reluctant to put any of their game on the Virtual Console or PSN/XBLA, only re-realising at full price on handled (Final Fantasy II at 40$ on the PSP in 2008?? Really???). You can still buy Chrono Trigger DS new at 30$. It's A MIRACLE we get Final Fantasy VI/III, albeit with that choppy original translation.
I called for Actraiser, one of my childhood favourites and favourite games of all time, before the video so I am glad he included it. Good taste my man!
Glad to see someone mention Terranigma, such a shame it's not included in the SNES Mini. For PAL gamers, it was THE RPG on the SNES, since we never got Earthbound, Final Fantasy or Chrono Trigger. In fact I never even heard of Earthbound until a few years ago. I get the feeling there is some alternative world where UA-cam was dominated by Australians and Europeans instead of Americans. Where everyone talks about Terranigma instead of Earthbound.
Hi John! Thanks for the awesome vid! a) As far as I can see, you didn't answer your intro question what Nintendo has learned from the release of the NES Mini. I may miss some points, but I guess they mainly learned that delivering a low stock of a highly sought-after machine is the perfect way to get free buzz and media coverage. So, I am quite sure what we'll see in the future. Thinking of it, I wonder when the first publisher will come up with the idea of a limited digital download or a preorder-only game. Wait and see. b) I actually owned an original Rendering Ranger R2 cartridge some 10 years ago but sold it on eBay, hehe. The price was nothing to write home about though.
really looking forwards this been released, I found this really easy to get hold of too, had 3 pre orders with 3 different vendors, and all 3 pre order been confirmed.
To each their own. 720p for the NES games that were in 240p was perfect. It basically was 3x the res which 1080p wouldn't have equaled to. Edit: Hell yeah Higan! By far the best and most accurate SNES emulator. I'm surprised my 2011 laptop can handle it just fine with OBS recording it in the background.
somebody over on nesdev actually made a patch for Super Ghouls and Ghosts that fixes the slowdown. The SNES CPU wasn't as toothless as a lot of people think, but it was hard to get the most out of and misused in a lot of cases, especially early software.
With the announcement of original Xbox backwards compatibility on the One and that glorious stage showing of the Crimson Skies logo, it'd be a great time to visit that series with this show sometime :)
Am I the only one who's missing Stunt Race FX from the lineup? It's the only first party Super FX game not included, and also happens to be one of my all time favorite games.
You're choices of games are like when a Pearl Jam fan thinks that a B-side like "Fatal" should be included on a Greatest Hits album. (Super Tennis and/or Super Soccer could have been on it though)
The one game I'd be very interested on the SNES Mini classic is the Doom port, but this time with proprer framerate corrected, among other problems. I know I'll receive quite a good of flak about it, but back in the day, I really enjoyed it because I had no other ports to compare it to until the PS1 port came. Sadly for me, the SNES Doom port is highly unlikely to be included or re-released, either now or in the far future.
They've should get Emerald Dragon on there. I meam, they'd need to translate it as it never made it outside of Japan or get a permission to use fan translation, but it's a really nice RPG that almost no one had heard about and what avoid many of JRPG cliches such as mute hero and only follows the convention where it makes sense to do so.
fossilfern nes mini got hacked. nes mini sold perfectfly than everyone expected.With help of hacking,everyone get nes mini to hack it for more games(mother 1 for example,mario bros hacks and more) i hope snes will have low-level security.It will again oversold.
YT Gamer it's what I'm hoping. sure I could just built a raspberry pi but the SNES mini is a novelty so it would be nice to have every SNES game on this little device.
Thank you for picking the LOK and Soul Reaver series some of the best voice work atmosphere and gameplay.Just Love them.Dreamcast versions are even better than PC.
I like how u make the disclaimer in the beginning that no emulation will be used to display the games for this video but less then 3 mins later Mario Kart is emulated, lmao
Donkey Kong Country's music composer must have been inspired by Kate Bush and her eclectic, haunting atmospheric Fairlight keyboard sound heard on the albums "Hounds of Love" [1985] or "The Sensual World" [1989]. Underwater level sounds similar to "Wow" [1978] by Kate Bush for example. Rare was a British company so it makes sense.
most of the time i agree with you john,but this time i disagree saying yoshi island gba version is a downgrade, sounds effects are better graphics are sharper the gba version is the definitive version of yoshi island
I was going to say DoReMi, I actually have the cart. The music is really fantastic. Rockman & Forte is awesome and much better than Megaman X. I'd also include Rockman 7.
awesome video, as usual! ... now, as a sega fanboy, I feel it is my duty to ask that you do a video showcasing the best the sega Genesis had to offee, technically speaking. I feel you'd do a much better job (and more in-depth) than other videos on UA-cam (although most did a really good job too) ... make it so. engage. 😋
Whoa you have the Sega Saturn into noise for your intro :D (That's the only reason I kept watching the video though. I hated the SNES as a kid, I always found the Mega Drive to be so much better)
SNES had awesome 2D graphics hardware and good sound capabilities, but it was heavily crippled by very low RAM and slow CPU that was stuck in 8-bit era. Amiga, Atari ST and Sega Genesis got a powerful Motorola 68000 CPU. That CPU allowed for really revolutionary gameplay mechanics that really never got to SNES. First XCOM was released for first generation Amigas (1985!) and yet it first console release was on PSX. SNES could do amazing parallax, transparency and rotation, but it was very limited in terms of resolution. 320x240 was used in other platforms and it allowed for much larger field of view or detailed graphics. Even if Sega Genesis lacked such great games like Chrono Trigger or A Link to the past, it had very fast, responsive and smooth arcade games. SNES got more or less 10 groundbreaking games, but rest of it's library was generic side-scrollers and other NES-like games with upgrade graphics. Amiga or DOS PC from that era got hundreds of amazing games with groundbreaking mechanics, maybe not as polished as Nintendo ones, but their library was very diverse. Even with all that extra power from chipsets SNES was obsolete very quick in his life. Nintendo censorship didn't helped either. SNES is just an example of a failed concept of a heavily focused hardware that could do great things but limits the overall possibilities. Wolfenstein 3D and DOOM started home 3D gaming, that PSX brought for everyone. Nintendo 64 was a good successor, but it had the same flawed design. N64 was good at 3D, but it struggled at 2D graphics, and had some weird texturing limitations. Nintendo portable consoles seem to correct those mistakes. Gameboy and Gameboy Color are the ultimate 8-bit platforms. GBA has the power SNES should have and NDS is what N64 should been - great 3D graphics and 2D capabilities.
I hope they at least Add an option for optimising the two star foxes-- if there isn't, I really can't see what the point of having them in the collection is. Star fox is great game but very much held back by the Snes's limitations.
Oh Gosh Actraiser was my childhood xD , the super nes was my first home console ^^ loved it so much , the thing i do not get is why nintendo doesnt put a wifi or ethernet port to open a store on these machines like the NES mini ??? they sometimes miss the point about earning a ton of easy cash... lol
Sony should relaunch the PSTV device, but house it within a miniature PSone. I have the PSTV and it's a great way to play PSone, PSP, PS Vita and indie games.
Day 1, someone will crack the SNES mini open and upload the rom for Star Fox 2... assuming it is different. I'm more excited for this than that gimmicky attempt of a reboot on the Wii U.
Anyone know the source of the music that starts playing at 22:57 along with the Skyblazer footage through until the end of the video? It's not from Skyblazer as far as I can tell.
Ooooh, I can already not wait for the next DF Retro video! The Legacy of Kain remains one of my favorite game series, and Soul Reaver was an absolute technical masterpiece for its time. The Dreamcast version was also the first game that demonstrated Nixxes' prowess in creating high quality ports. This is gonna be good.
If I had to choose *_ONE CONSOLE_* _(and its entire library)_ for the rest of my life, it'd had to be the Super Nintendo. SNES graphics and sound are great, something that many retro-style games today try to replicate, and the library is robust with lots of variety from _almost_ every genre. I usually like simpler games anyway, so I wouldn't miss today's complex and epic games too much.
Here's the games list Contra III: The Alien Wars Donkey Kong Country EarthBound Final Fantasy III F-ZERO Kirby Super Star Kirby’s Dream Course The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past Mega Man X Secret of Mana Star Fox Star Fox 2 Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting Super Castlevania IV Super Ghouls ’n Ghosts Super Mario Kart Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars Super Mario World Super Metroid Super Punch-Out!! Yoshi’s Island
skydragonslash Hey..what's your recommendation for the most reliable way to sodtmod your wii u? I have modded the original Wii but never messed with Wiiu softmods..quite fancy doing that this afternoon :)
When talking about the SNES audio, I'm surprised that yo didn't mention how Tales of Phanasia used samples in its opening song to create vocals. The SNES was truly a glorious machine.
John you really need to do a df retro on the best Genesis games that really push its hardware. I'm talking about Alien Soldier, Thunder Force IV, Gunstar Heroes, Musha, Adventures of Batman&R, Contra Hard Corps etc. The system deserves the love, it's undeservedly underappreciated.
Come on now :P, for what it was, back in the day, that would've been awesome to see. I've got a 144hz Monitor, I'm not chomping at the bit for 20fps ;P, don't worry.
Stadium ARTs I was obsessed with virtua racing on the mega drive which has a similar chip to allow 3d images and polygons. I played it till my thumbs blistered and bled. But looking at that now and even the improved 32x version as well as at starfox - in context they were impressive but I personally don't think I can look at any and say they are amazing. everyone's different ofc and entitled to their opinions,, but i think it's important to be objective
No I prefer "SNES"! Man you American's had to put up with a really ugly version of the console, not that the main version was much of a looker, mind you most consoles look uggers compared to the beautiful Mega Drive ;) The SNES was a great console though, I enjoyed playing on my little bro's SNES very much.
It's like all everyone's cares about anymore is frame rate and resolution. It's like people don't even care if a game good or not. People praise shitty games for being 60fps and overlook classics for not being 1080p. It's just sad.
No.... Demon's Crest!? Act Raiser!? ChronoTrigger!? Illusion of Gaia!? Secret of Evermore!? Zombies ate my Neighbors!? Super Bomberman!? Saturday Night Slam Masters!? Sparkster The Rocket Knight!? Ranma 1/2 fighters!? Skyblazer!? Soul Blazer!? No buy! These games Should have been on that SNES mini, no ifs, ands or buts about it, Nintendo fucked up, period!
Is here some older than 30 or 35 and really grown up with the snes?! Cant understand the bashing and complaining! Geeeeez....! i find the line up superb! And a have allmost all games CIB already here!
Legacy of Kain! :D! What a nice surprise at the end of the video, Soul Reaver is one of my all time favorites, can't wait to see the full episode, thanks DF.
How the holy mother of god did they not get Chrono Trigger in the SNES Mini???
KangarooBeard Than Super Metroid? Really?
Nintendo owns super Metriod they don't have to pay anything.
ValenKnight Square. Cost too much money. In fact that is why there is only 21 games vs 30. It cost a lot more money for those SNES third party titles. If they got Chrono Trigger it would have been $100+ for the system, or they would have had to cut more titles down to 16-18 total.
I’m personally sad we didn’t get Turtles In Time. But I think this is the best they could do overall while keeping the price under $100

You can still buy Chrono Trigger DS new at 30$.
It's A MIRACLE we get Final Fantasy VI/III, albeit with that choppy original translation.
Genuinely said "this is what I'm looking for" when this turned up in my feed. Haven't even watched yet but I'll know it'll be good. Cheers John.
Did not mention Chrono Trigger! RIOT! RIOT! W66
neither did Nintendo when deciding SNES classic games
13:43 - he has reverb on his voice when he says "reverb". Love that detail :)
Holy crap, S.S.H. in the background blew me out! DigitalFoundry never ceases to amaze me!
Vapor Trail owned super hard. Also the snes mini should've had The Legend Of The Mystical Ninja, a gorgeous game with a wonderful soundtrack.
Thanks for mentioning Terranigma.
Thanks for the Terranigma shoutout. Probably one of my favorite games ever. Everything about it is just amazing^^
I called for Actraiser, one of my childhood favourites and favourite games of all time, before the video so I am glad he included it. Good taste my man!
Loving the S.S.H. music throughout the video. Excellent work as always, John.

Super Castlevania IV was and its still my favorite SNES game, it was just amazing!
really looking forwards this been released, I found this really easy to get hold of too, had 3 pre orders with 3 different vendors, and all 3 pre order been confirmed.
I love this series. How they analyse classic games. I aways wanted something like this on youtube
DF: we want a video of Doom ports like the video of Duke Nukem ports you did a few months ago.
Many Thanks for your amazing work
To each their own. 720p for the NES games that were in 240p was perfect. It basically was 3x the res which 1080p wouldn't have equaled to.

Fantastic vid. I'll definitely be tuning in for the unbox and strip down (of the SNES mini, that is). 😀👍🏻🕹
where is my boy Richard Leadbetter?
Homeless Emperor Wichard*
With the announcement of original Xbox backwards compatibility on the One and that glorious stage showing of the Crimson Skies logo, it'd be a great time to visit that series with this show sometime :)
Great video and your knowledge of these platforms is the icing on the cake..
Excellent video,love these DF Retro videos!
Just make sure you let us buy a goddamn SNES Mini if we want one, Nintendo!
I'm not sure why my mind has focused in on the word "then" but John really like to use it in a particular way. Any was good content as ever then.
I didn't think I would be watching a history lesson about the SNES and it's games.
yeah that overclocked SFX chip does make star fox run smoother but the gameplay is also running 1.5x (or higher) faster.
Oh man, I'd love to have Do Re Mi Fantasy on the Snes Mini...one of my all time favorites!
Awesome ep, thx John! And next ep is Legacy of Kain and Soul Reaver, hell yeah!!!!
Am I the only one who's missing Stunt Race FX from the lineup? It's the only first party Super FX game not included, and also happens to be one of my all time favorite games.
Thank you for another amazing video! The Super NES is my favorite console of all time, and I always love seeing stuff focused on it :)
Are we talking about the same Drakon (the modder) who has a reputation for ruining other people's consoles by drowning them in hot glue?
You're choices of games are like when a Pearl Jam fan thinks that a B-side like "Fatal" should be included on a Greatest Hits album.
(Super Tennis and/or Super Soccer could have been on it though)
WOW, Donkey Kong Country still looks amazing, and the smoothness, incredible for the time.
I still think Super Castlevania has the best sound tracks of all time! Even as a kid I could appreciate how great the game sounded.
Konami also used a sound card in it's Japanese release of Castlevania 3. Should go check it out. Sounds awesome!
The one game I'd be very interested on the SNES Mini classic is the Doom port, but this time with proprer framerate corrected, among other problems. I know I'll receive quite a good of flak about it, but back in the day, I really enjoyed it because I had no other ports to compare it to until the PS1 port came.

no doubt the SNES MINI will be hacked shortly after its out
fossilfern nes mini got hacked.
nes mini sold perfectfly than everyone expected.With help of hacking,everyone get nes mini to hack it for more games(mother 1 for example,mario bros hacks and more)
i hope snes will have low-level security.It will again oversold.
YT Gamer it's what I'm hoping. sure I could just built a raspberry pi but the SNES mini is a novelty so it would be nice to have every SNES game on this little device.
why the hell would nintendo left a usb port on the console, they just said: ight if ya want like goof troop (btw good gem) ya can donwload the rom
Thank you for picking the LOK and Soul Reaver series some of the best voice work atmosphere and gameplay.Just Love them.Dreamcast versions are even better than PC.
Another great video John. Ignore all the negativity people are toxic.
I like how u make the disclaimer in the beginning that no emulation will be used to display the games for this video but less then 3 mins later Mario Kart is emulated, lmao

Games like Donkey Kong Country And Yoshi's Island look better than almost all games on the N64 and PS1. Actually they are still gorgeous even today.
Yesss can't wait for the next episode :D
I know right? They just slipped that in at the end
Wudv liked the addition of chrono trigger , but happy as a U.K. Gamer we getting games that weren't released here
most of the time i agree with you john,but this time i disagree saying yoshi island gba version is a downgrade, sounds effects are better graphics are sharper the gba version is the definitive version of yoshi island
Yo the Gradius III OST love in this vid makes me happy.
I was going to say DoReMi, I actually have the cart. The music is really fantastic. Rockman & Forte is awesome and much better than Megaman X. I'd also include Rockman 7.
I had to add a lot of these games to my must play list.
awesome video, as usual!
... now, as a sega fanboy, I feel it is my duty to ask that you do a video showcasing the best the sega Genesis had to offee, technically speaking. I feel you'd do a much better job (and more in-depth) than other videos on UA-cam (although most did a really good job too)
... make it so.
engage.
😋
Mr. Nutz has a amazing soundtrack, one of the best in Super Nintendo plus great graphics and is very hard to play, should be on SNES mini.
Snes was a good console, the problems with it had to do with memory and sound that always sounded drowned out.
Love DF retro even though i never played anything prior to 2004-5
Whoa you have the Sega Saturn into noise for your intro :D
(That's the only reason I kept watching the video though. I hated the SNES as a kid, I always found the Mega Drive to be so much better)
God, I love Digital Foundry.
I miss TopGear, those driving games were great on he NES.

That troll at the start of the video :')
Ohhh so that's where Arthur is from, Ghosts and Goblins.
When's Mortal Kombat John?
Great episode BTW
What's the name of the song/which game is the song that played until 4:00 from? Sounds pretty awesome.
Would have been nice if they put Mortal Kombat 2 also. Play it Loud!
Yes, Soul Reaver! Now there's a game that needs a reboot.
Sony should relaunch the PSTV device, but house it within a miniature PSone. I have the PSTV and it's a great way to play PSone, PSP, PS Vita and indie games.
SOUL REAVER?!? YEA BOIII, CANT WAIT!
20:40 - Almost anything would have made a better choice
Day 1, someone will crack the SNES mini open and upload the rom for Star Fox 2... assuming it is different.
I'm more excited for this than that gimmicky attempt of a reboot on the Wii U.
Anyone know the source of the music that starts playing at 22:57 along with the Skyblazer footage through until the end of the video? It's not from Skyblazer as far as I can tell.
This is the only console I'm hyped for.
Greatest console of all time!
I think the Dreamcast is better, but the SNES is an amazing system too
Can you guys compare the final release emulation to the Wii VC too (not only to the original hardware and Wii U VC) when it arrives?
What was the track called of the DoReMi Soundtrack sample you showed? the first one
Snes, just one of the consoles, has more quality games than whole PC library to date.
Random User Or you could play these on PC maybe???
Kirby superstar is an fx chip game too!
ff6 was amazing for the time. ii always tnought it had to have some special chip.
Ooooh, I can already not wait for the next DF Retro video! The Legacy of Kain remains one of my favorite game series, and Soul Reaver was an absolute technical masterpiece for its time. The Dreamcast version was also the first game that demonstrated Nixxes' prowess in creating high quality ports. This is gonna be good.
Kain was deified.
The clans tell tales of him.
Astfgl Still have my Dreamcast version such a great game especially that version :).
few know the truth...
He was mortal once, as were we all.
But the european SNES also looked like the Super Famicom, isn't this a british show? :P
Nukleon John is American but yea Richard is British
Eurogamer is from UK (hence the name) but John is american
Also, (from UK) we never referred to it as the ‘Super NES’, it was just the SNES.
If I had to choose *_ONE CONSOLE_* _(and its entire library)_ for the rest of my life, it'd had to be the Super Nintendo.
SNES graphics and sound are great, something that many retro-style games today try to replicate, and the library is robust with lots of variety from _almost_ every genre. I usually like simpler games anyway, so I wouldn't miss today's complex and epic games too much.

If you can get ahold of a Wii U. You can softmod the wiiware side of it and play your shit over HDMI I did it to mines.
skydragonslash Hey..what's your recommendation for the most reliable way to sodtmod your wii u? I have modded the original Wii but never messed with Wiiu softmods..quite fancy doing that this afternoon :)
couldve used DKC 2 and 3, and Chrono Trigger
Devin Money so a lil over $4 a game, not bad
@24:30
OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH!!!!!! SOUL REAVER!!!!
I'm From Nigeria and we LOVE this GAME!
which part i lived in oyo some months!!! ASEEE
Lagos!
When talking about the SNES audio, I'm surprised that yo didn't mention how Tales of Phanasia used samples in its opening song to create vocals. The SNES was truly a glorious machine.
John you really need to do a df retro on the best Genesis games that really push its hardware. I'm talking about Alien Soldier, Thunder Force IV, Gunstar Heroes, Musha, Adventures of Batman&R, Contra Hard Corps etc. The system deserves the love, it's undeservedly underappreciated.
great video but one miss was your mention of Drakon. His mod work is an abomination. There is well documented information on this
Don't worry guys. Russians are going to hack the console anyway and you'll be able to upload your dem games to it the same way we did with nes mini.
Great video, I really like the look of the 16-bit games and what they were able to achive with the hardware.
Can't wait till mine arrives.
Damn, Startfox on an OC'd FX chip looks amazing. Like, the way they designed the game.
Stadium ARTs 20fps is "amazing"?
Come on now :P, for what it was, back in the day, that would've been awesome to see. I've got a 144hz Monitor, I'm not chomping at the bit for 20fps ;P, don't worry.
Stadium ARTs I was obsessed with virtua racing on the mega drive which has a similar chip to allow 3d images and polygons. I played it till my thumbs blistered and bled. But looking at that now and even the improved 32x version as well as at starfox - in context they were impressive but I personally don't think I can look at any and say they are amazing. everyone's different ofc and entitled to their opinions,, but i think it's important to be objective
I still find it funny that someone overclocked a SNES.
Linneman surely shows a soft spot for those children platformers. First Keio 2, and now Doremi.
First time I heard that Donkey Kong Country underwater music it was the best music I had ever heard in a game!
No I prefer "SNES"! Man you American's had to put up with a really ugly version of the console, not that the main version was much of a looker, mind you most consoles look uggers compared to the beautiful Mega Drive ;) The SNES was a great console though, I enjoyed playing on my little bro's SNES very much.
Agreed. It just depends on where you are from. SNES to me.
It's like all everyone's cares about anymore is frame rate and resolution. It's like people don't even care if a game good or not. People praise shitty games for being 60fps and overlook classics for not being 1080p. It's just sad.
Christian Young I didn't care about that crap back in the day!
