IMO the SNES always had better graphics. I can't find any Genesis game that looks as good as this:

Heh, yeah, leave it to Square to raise the bar.

I've always found the SNES graphics more asthetically pleasing, so when something was released for each of the 16-bit consoles, I would pick up the SNES version.

Yeah... there was a very heated battle between the Super Nintendo and the Sega Genesis a long time ago.

There was actually a lot of controversy about the Sega Genesis' graphics, and their integrity. I remember a long time ago when there was an article in a video game magazine which debunked the Genesis' "Blast" processor. Sega supposedly used to promote the Genesis by saying that it had a Blast processor, which, according to them, was a chip inside of the system that made Sonic the Hedgehog go so fast.

He's going so fast, he's just one big blue blur!! Look at him go, mom! It's gotta be the BLAST processor doing that! Wrong. It's called animated sprites.

The Super Nintendo was superior to the Sega Genesis in sound, animation, graphical detail, and more.

If you don't believe me, compare screenshots of Mortal Kombat 2 on the Sega Genesis to the screenshots of Mortal Kombat 2 on Super Nintendo. God, the Genesis version is AWEFUL! Whereas, the Super Nintendo version is an incredible port, looking almost as good as the actual arcade version!

but the gensis version had blood as opposed to... rainbow drool?

Jonatello · 08-31-2004, 03:28 PM

the SNES version of Mortal Kombat 2 did have blood. It was Mortal Kombat 1 that didn't have blood

And I believe it was with that game that most of the heated arguments over the superiority of one system to the other really started to come up. Kids used to tease me at school because I only had an SNES back then. Somehow my not being able to play the "real" version made me inferior to them.

NeoBix · 08-31-2004, 08:45 PM

LOL... yeah, well, a lot of immature kids who knew NOTHING about video game superiority back then would boast that Genesis was a better system because Mortal Kombat 1 had BLOOD but MK 1 on the SNES did not have blood at all...

Then along comes Mortal Kombat 2 on SNES, which has crisp clear sharp beautiful graphics with TONS of blood and it blows the Genesis version out of the water..

XD Not to get too far off what y'alls are talking about, but I still have to laugh about the Genesis version of TMNT:TF. The game is on crack, a'ight?

Anyone else find it mildly irritating that they forgot to put the game on harder modes and the lame excuse they gave us for not fighting the final boss? Karai's clone? Yeah, right!

And all those planets! Aggh, too many weird flashing colors!!! MY EYES!

SNES just was the best, hands down. It tried to keep to the cartoon, yet it did have some classy looking sprites! Kind of wish they didn't have so many obscure characters in there, but they weren't detracting from the fun of it. 1P mode was fun, too.

Take a wild guess who I was good at. (Hint: Look at my siggy!)

NeoBix · 09-01-2004, 02:41 PM

those screen shots of Secret of Mana 2 are very nice, but you need to keep in mind that the people here in America actually NEVER had that game on their Super Nintendos... Secret of Mana 2 was only released in Japan under a different, Japanese title (Seiken Densetsu 3 or something like that).

And, I could be mistaken, but I believe that the Super Famicom (which is the Japanese version of the Super Nintendo) actually had a little bit more superior hardware inside of it than the Super Nintendo had, so it could boast greater games with greater design and graphics than our Super Nintendo here in the USA could.

That's one of the reasons that those screenshots of Secret of Mana 2 look go beautiful. However, if you still want to see some equally beautiful screenshots of Super Nintendo games, go check out some screenshots of the game Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, or Breath of Fire 2. Those are jaw-dropping.

Jonatello · 09-01-2004, 04:58 PM

actually, the Super Famicom's hardware is the exact same as the Super Nintendo. You can even play Super Famicom games on the Super Nintendo by pulling out the 2 plastic tabs where the cartridge goes (that way the SF game will fit in the SNES).

Actually, you were completely on-topic. It's the rest of us who are straying off-topic with this system spec talk.

NeoBix · 09-02-2004, 12:12 AM

Actually, Jonatello, you are right about that, sir, and I apologize. I stand corrected!

Tournment Fighters wasn't very good.

Could you be more specific with that opinion? The NES Tournament Fighters, SNES Tournament Fighters, and Genesis Tournament Fighters were three VERY completely different games. The Genesis version was horrible, the NES one wasn't bad, and the SNES one was the best, IMO.

NeoBix · 09-08-2004, 06:45 PM

Tournament Fighters rocked. I'm picky when it comes to choosing games that I like, and this is definitely one for all turtle fans to own, regardless of how out-dated the game may be.

I seriously hope you don't mean the SNES version. IMO that game is on par with Street Fighter 2 (maybe even better)

Jet-ski_Ninja · 09-10-2004, 07:32 AM

I played the genesis one, and I hated it! The SNES one wasn't bad at all. I never played the NES one.
