    Jon Burton actually did a video on how he coded the tower stages, I know he addressed how both versions were able to handle it so I was surprised to find out that the SNES cartridge couldn't process a second iteration of the stage.
    Coding and graphical tricks sure do make for interesting trivia, and it's insane that Mode7 and "Blast Processing" were able to go toe-to-toe on this game.

    The Genesis high-resolution mode is a huge boost to gameplay in this and other games. Not that the SNES resolution of 256x224 was bad, but you could often tell when a game was designed for the Genesis first. This was a strange period for the SNES as there were a least several games missing major content, likely due to cart limitations. I know Earthworm Jim and WWF Wrestlemania Arcade had some significant cuts. Perhaps data compression was inefficient for the SNES at the time. Also, the fact that SNES sound was all samples was a disadvantage when it came to keeping ROM size down. Anyway, I expected the Sega win here and I agree. Very good work as usual. Your videos are always a fun watch.

      Acho que é porque esses jogos são ports do Genesis para o SNES, os ports precisavam ter mais cuidado para ficar à nível do console que o jogo foi realmente planejado.
      Por conta disso, jogos que foram lançados primeiro no SNES e depois portado para o Genesis, são meio que sempre melhores no SNES. E assim vice-versa.
      Em Earthworm Jim do SNES, dá pra notar alguns objetos esquecidos da versão Genesis, como aquelas linhas verticais que ele geralmente usa pela falta de cores. Esse Mickey Mania faz parte disso, infelizmente.

Dev studios were using the full CPU from the get go, it didn't require any special knowledge.

    @XBladenoJutsu 8 років тому +35

    I think the SNES version has loading times because it compressed the game assets heavily, and because the SNES has a slower CPU, it takes longer to decompress everything. Seems like the most logical reasoning to me anyway, since I'm actually not 100% sure.

    • @MaxwelThuThu
      @MaxwelThuThu 8 років тому +11

      it's nothing but bad programing. Donkey Kong Country have MUCH more animations and effects, with no loading times and slowdown.

    • @XBladenoJutsu
      @XBladenoJutsu 8 років тому +10

      The thing that would cause load times on a cart game would usually be compressing the assets heavily into a smaller than normal ROM space. My guess is Mr. Nutz and DKC uses much bigger ROM space because of the huge assets, but for some reason they went with smaller ROM space than normal for this game? It's just a guess of course.
      That's not to say the Genesis doesn't have games without loading. Aero Blaster on Genesis has load times exactly because of this reason (They squeezed bigger than normal assets onto 4 Megabits of space, whereas the PC Engine version has smaller assets on 4 Megabits and no loading).
      The Genesis and SNES version of Micky Mania are both 16 Megabits, so it seems likely.
      Edit: I checked to make sure, and Mr. Nutz is 8 Megabits, but the game has very simplistic assets compared to DKC and Micky Mania, so that game would not need to load. DKC on the other hand is 32 Megabits. Yeah, that sounds about right for that game.

    • @XBladenoJutsu
      @XBladenoJutsu 8 років тому +1

      Doggycharly PLZ
      They both do have load times, but the SFC version is just much faster. That's a good point though, I wonder why that is. Both games are 24 Megabits. I guess since the JP version came out later, they found a way to optimize compression, since 24 Megabits was plenty for that game. Maybe Micky Mania didn't have optimized compression yet, or maybe 16 Megabits was cutting it close even for the Genesis version.

    • @XBladenoJutsu
      @XBladenoJutsu 8 років тому

      *****
      Nah, it's 16. I can't find any site listing that info at the moment, but the ROM sizes themselves are 2MB. 1MB is 8 Megabits, so since it's 2MB you just double it, making it 16 Megabits.

      Ryuma King Both are 3rd person racing games, both are emblematic in their respective consoles and both share the arcade feeling in their gameplay.
      If I could find a difference it would be the fact that in Outrun you are racing against the clock and in Top Gear you are not.
      But if Console War is a show about comparing versions of a Game (Sega vs Nintendo), then there is nothing much to say.
      Top Gear 2 is the winner since Genesis and Super Nintendo have their respective versions of this great game.

    If you have any doubts about the SNES version being worse, check out Retropolis Zone's Quickies Don't Cut It review of that game. It's really good and he takes a look at ALL versions. Also, I played the SNES version on my friend's SNES and later played the MD/Genesis version on the Mega Drive... emulator... I don't own a Mega Drive (or SNES) but I prefer the Mega Drive version for sure.

    Snes only displayed 512x during a few title/menu screens or something I'm pretty sure.

    Clean sweep for Sega! Certainly an excellent example of late life cycle 16 bit game and what could be achieved.
    I believe the load times were due to the heavy compression needed to fit the game and all those detailed graphics into the cart size used and because of the slower CPU in the SNES, it took longer to unpack it all.

    Just recently discovered your channel, it's awesome. So far, both of you guys seem to be the best at doing Justice to both consoles and you guys definitely shut fanboys mouth's and put them on their place on Both Sides! I am anxious to see what you guys will bring out next and hopefully you may do many more so that future 16-bit fans can have a more decent and reliable perspective on games for both Consoles. I would also hope to see one of these on the Batman Return games for both consoles in the future. I know one is a beat em up and the other a platform side scroller, but I love both games, although one more than the other, and I believe the comments on the one I like tend to be of dissatisfaction, which shouldn't be the case. or an episode on F- Zero would be really cool, I may know of a good suiting rival for it in the presence of The Outrun series: Outrun 2019. thank you guys, keep up the awesome work!😃

    • @RetroRupp
      @RetroRupp 8 років тому

      I don't know about that. It seems like Sega had the better multi platform games more often than not. Probably because the snes versions were lazy ports. Nintendo just had some really stellar exclusives, and having second and third party companies like Rare and Square really helped.

    • @RetroRupp
      @RetroRupp 8 років тому +1

      *****
      Yeah, Mortal Kombat 2 and 3 were better on snes, and Earthworm Jim was better on Genesis for the most part. Cool Spot, RoboCop, The Terminator, and X-Men I can't really give my opinion on because I've only played Cool Spot, and I played it on Super Nintendo. I thought it was really good on Snes though. Aladdin is one that I know most people say is better on Genesis, but personally I disagree. I think both games are totally different from one another and both do what they do well. They are both great games in their own right and I don't think one is really better than the other. Actually a lot of the best games for each system were only on that system, which is a damn fine reason own them both. Like I said, I grew up with Super Nintendo so I prefer it over the Genesis, but I try not to be bias. I just love the 16-bit era period. :)

    Also I see people recommend Knights of the Round vs Golden Axe. Just want to point out there's 3 Golden Axes on Genesis, Golden Axe 2 releasing the same year as Knights of the Round. Don't know which one you should compare, though.
