Better on Genesis Anonymous Tue Oct 13 19:32:00 2015 No.2736712 [Reply] [Original]

Many people today just automatically assume that any multiplatform game is better of Super Nintendo than it is on Sega Genesis. This is of course, not true. What games you think are better on Genesis and why? I'll start...

Flashback: The Quest For Identity because it runs more smoothly

I preferred the Genesis version of Super Street Fighter 2.

The sprites didn't look quite as good on the Genesis, and the sound was more muffled. But I felt that the six button Genesis controller was way better than the SNES controller, the Genesis version didn't have the retarded sound effects that were tacked onto certain moves (like Hadouken), and the Genesis version didn't reset the music every time someone won a round.

No no, the SNES had more powerful hardware in a lot of ways so most people just go straight for its port, assuming it's better. My preference for the Genesis soundchip aside and as a lifetime SEGA supporter it kills me to say this but they're usually right. Not always however!

A lot of people look back on the Genesis and wonder why it was as popular as the SNES since the games don't seem to hold up well. Nobody ever talks about how the Genesis could "show blood" and to a bunch of shithead kids in the 90s that was an honest-to-god selling point. You wanted the "cool" console.

Should elaborate on my post before someone calls me a retard like the last time I brought this up. When you jump on a platform you have to land on it with the platform being at the space between both feet. If not you'll float right through it like in this pic. It's not a big deal through most of the game but can be pretty annoying during the prison section with the moving blocks and when you're rushing out of the cave of wonders.

I got SNES Fatal Fury 2 when I was a kid and honestly loved it. I got to play the Genesis version and it was honestly pretty good too, but different. I don't know which is really better.

Calling Zelda 1 and 2 bad isn't trolling. It seems like every major NES adventure (Metroid included) game is cryptic to the point of just not being fun. Don't get me wrong, I think adventure and exploration is good. Having to find things yourself and not having your hand held the entire time is good. Tediousness like bombing every wall to find an entrance is not good.

Insults aren't called for.

Anyway, yes, I think some games do "age". Obviously not in the literal sense, but as standards change and time goes on, some games still stand the test of time, and others do not. Many games were insanely popular because they started a new genre, but because they're clunky and cryptic by today's standards, they're just not fun to play anymore when you know you could play something better.

I'd say most games that were good "back in their day" are still good today, but 8-bit adventure games and pre-mouse CRPGs are two things in particular that stand out to me as having not aged well.

Ive got no explanation, its just the way I feel; when I die on GhostsnG I get angry and irrational, i feel like the game just killed me because.

The 32X had 40 officially released games of those I'd say 23 are worth playing. And that was after only like a year. How many games does a system need for you to think it's worth playing? Also I'd say far less than 58% of released SNES games are worth playing which means over all the 32X is a better system than the SNES there I said it.

There you have it, gamer cred is the only reason to pick Super, it's still a great game but the slowdown, forced scrolling, and boring empty screens can fuck off. It's basically Exhibit A for anyone who wants to bitch about the SNES being underpowered. Original GnG is harder anyway, if you want to play that angle.

That's opinion which is why I've left it out of any comparisons. Personally I really don't like the SNES sound a lot of the time. It sounds like a cheap midi orchestra with too much reverb. At least the Genesis sound enough not like real instruments that it can be enjoyed as its own electronica.

No they pointed out games which came out in 1992 because he was like " duhh 92 comes after 91" to which I replied yes but if they came out before Aug 1992 which would be a year after the Super NINTENDO came out that would be fine EXCEPT it would still be almost 2 years before the super FAMICOM came out. The 32X launched within weeks of each territory so to properly gauge which had more worthwhile games in an equal period, you have to use an equal period and not use a particular region to artificially inflate the one you like better into having a greater amount Do you understand now?

They're the same system dipshit so first year means its first year and if everything from 1992 is eliminated and some are already established better on Sega like Joe and Mac & Addams Family and Super R-Type III is straight garbage then the SNES loses.

Decently playable on the Genesis, literally unplayable on the SNES due to its slower CPU.

Kinda interesting to see a fullblown polygonal racing game on the system that didn't use the SVP Chip like Virtua Racing or the SuperFX Chip like 3D games on the SNES did.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Maui Mallard. The game was an extremely solid platformer-nigh-cum-run-and-gun where you could play as a ninja and use a smorgasbord of different bullets in a DISNEY game. When it got a SNES release they completely retooled the game into a boring easy collectathon (that wasn't open world so what's the fuckin' point) with shitty music and barely any graphical changes.

Of course the best version was PC since it was just the Gen version with orchestrated CD music.

Ew. This is the thing I really disliked about 90's CD releases of games, their tendency to shittify the soundtrack. Like Ecco the Dolphin CD is just the original game plus loading times and the god-tier soundtrack replaced with an awful CD one.

While those are nice, the reason MK is better on the Genesis is undoubtedly because it doesn't have the horrid input delay like the SNES version.

>>2737160
No. Because isn't on the SNES, that is, they aren't equivocal games or multiplatform in that way. They're set in the same world but they aren't ports. Yes the Genesis is the better of the two games anyway, but it's not a multiplat title. Its like trying to compare Super Mario World vs Super Mario Kart. You sure as fuck can do it, but they attempt different goals even though one could be considered better than the other.

It's basically just the original on steroids. And because PC Master Race let you install to the hard drive, no loading times.

It makes me sad I can't find any downloads for that shit.

>23 are worth playing
You mean 23 are playable. The system only has four good Exclusives and maybe eight games worth playing overall, two of those being Sega arcade ports. The only reason anyone should ever even consider having a 32X is if they really fucking love Chaotix and Kolibri and refuse to emulate.

Saturn only has EWJ2. And although it's technically the best version (great backgrounds, best music, etc), the SNES version is overall considered the best, the controls on the Saturn/PS1 versions are somewhat fucked as the port was not handled by the actual EWJ devs, but by another company.

I know that, I was talking about the series.

And it's a bummer that there's no truly definitive version of 2 (the shitty "3D" loading screen and redesigned cows bug me), but the 16-bit version's sfx are so low quality even compared to the first that I hate playing it that way. The controls are a little off, sure, but the series already had kinda weird, loose controls to begin with.

>>	Anonymous Mon Oct 19 09:48:17 2015 No.2746406 >>2746403 >redesigned cows bug me Yeah, also no "well done" pitch change with L and R. And I agree controls on EWJ were never something to write home about, but they're somewhat worse on Saturn. It's a shame really. I still love it though.

It'd be great if we could get a remastered doublepack, placing CD's 1 with a cobbled together, perfect version of 2, but nobody's willing to alter 2D games without going for a complete HD remake.

Maybe in 30 years when people finally figure out how to fuck around with the Saturn.

Never played it, I assume it's the same as the PS1 version. Probably doesn't have the nice parallax effects of the Saturn version but who knows.
I know it is missing a level though, so I wouldn't recommend it over other versions.

why keep bickering about console wars that are long over? I understand when it's about games that are console exclusive but why would you play an inferior port nowadays?
