/vr/ - Retro Games

NES/SNES platformers seem to over-emphasize boss battles. Nearly always there's a boss at the end of the stage, and more often than not it's an annoying one. DOS doesn't have this problem, in fact it seems to have more unique platformers and they also tend to push the envelope further as far as unique gameplay goes. Not that there's not some good titles on consoles, but for the most part they seem less enjoyable to me, generally speaking. May just be my nostalgia speaking but that's how I feel.
