I had always thought the game genie was created in a clean room. Didn't know they worked directly with Sega.

4:19 scrap brain zone - Mario galaxy

kids these days will never know how insane this was

Using the hammer to break the rock on the edge of the map in the desert.

Parents wanted me to take a Genesis instead of the SNES. I think I made the right decision going Mario’s way.

(Please connect Part 1 for full comment experience...) It still holds up to this day.

I miss this game (To be continued in part 2...)

I remember when I graduated from Middle School, my dad got me a SNES.. with Super Mario World. And then he got a free Super Mario All-Stars for sending in his receipt. A few months later.. got Mega Man X and Aero the Acrobat at KB-Toys for my birthday.

Tie-Ron Not tie- rone

IV was the best… right? I think so

30:15 lol, I had (and still do have) a Philips Cd-I.

Super Mario All Stars: Deluxe

Sega had many more games for the Saturn released only in Japan. My issue back when Super Mario all stars released on the SNES was I had played Mario 1-3 in the USA on my NES so many times that when I tried Super mario all stars I just was not impressed. Now that I'm much older I'd actually like to try to play those games again. For the record I heard about Mario 2 not being the "true" version of Mario 2, but I actually enjoyed it, but I enjoyed Mario 3 more.. I actually purchased an SNES near launch so I played the launch titles and it wasn't until a while later that I played Mario all stars. When I did I rented the game for a weekend and had no interest in until 2024...

Man, I loved Sonic & Knuckles + Sonic 3 and getting Hyper/Ultra Sonic. I feel like Sega is in a good place now, but man they fumbled the bag SO hard.

I know it was a gimmick, but Lock on Technology was so cool.

I remember getting this back in the day and it felt so futuristic, seeing the box art in the menu. It felt like some sort of future cable interactive cable channel or something. I wasn't prescient enough to predict Nintendo Switch Online or Netflix or anything

Happy Sonic 2sday!

Ninja Gaiden trilogy was one of the first remasters I can think of as well.

Thanks. What an awesome look at Segata!!

Phantasy Star IV Soooo good

SMW > All Sonic games combined

Geeez- I’m old

Cosmic fantasy collection vol. 2 is about to be released in US and EU anytime soon! 🙂

My favorite game of all stars was the battle mode in Mario 3, it's the only place to play the Atari Mario bros game

I love this channel

I honestly wish Nintendo did this treatment to all the NES heavy hitters of theirs. Imagine a 16-bit update for Zelda 1 and Zelda 2;; could remove the frustrations in Zelda 2 especially, like the pits/water/lava being instant death. Could just make 'em work like pits and such in later Zelda games starting with a Link to the Past, by just making them take a portion of your health and putting you back at the entrance. Plus other things to make the experience nicer, like not starting you at the starting palace every time you run out of lives; don't even have lives, lol.

The spiny shell is the MOST HATED, unfair, disruptive and friendship-destroying item EVER in the history of videogames. In MK64, you could actually become nearly invulnerable if you obtained a spiny shell and scaled up in positions to the first place by keeping it behind you instead of releasing if, it would keep you from getting hit by any other item from behind, rendering you essentially invincible. Also if you released the spiny shell while in first place, it would come back to hit... You... Since the spiny shell was programmed to hit the first place regardless of who is it (even if it is the launcher). This was corrected in future iterations of the game.

I completely agree!!

7:43 - 7:59 Not to criticize but if you look at the left side, I might be saying “Should the Astro Boy anime be made black & white?”

One of the things I hated about All Stars, is that the music was trying to make you believe you were in Hawaii. SMB & SMB3 were the titles that suffered the most from that.

Dude, nothing is inappropriate for children in the game

I ordered Phantasy Star out of a magazine (GamePro I believe) It was $84 after tax & shipping That game blew my mind

In 1994 you had 🎥 forest gump, pulp fiction, shawshank redeption and speed for movies, dkc, sonic & knuckles, ssf2, mk2 🎶 nas illmatic, nirvana, biggie, 9 inch nails and tech was exploding with ibm simon "smartphone", amazon, yahoo and netscape

Was my first Phantasy Star experience Wow- what a game!!!! It always will have a special place in my heart

In 1994 sega had 64% market share. 8:12 Then dkc country commercial obliterated sega but it didnt matter as ps1 took over anyway.

The complete Sonic 3 is still the best that Sonic has ever been.

My dad got me one Xmas day, had to wait for Sonic CD when I saw the manga intro where he spins through the rock!! 😮😮 I ALMOST PASSED OUT, WOW 😨

14:42 those aren't buttons. those are actually Mario's exposed nipples.

That Mario movie was pure trash! 😂

9:40 I am 37 years old so I'm old enough to remember how mind blowing graphics like these were, especially on a cartridge based system. FX chip be damned, THAT was possible on the SNES? We were wowed. Great video man

Rated 'D' for disappointment, eh ? That's too bad... Great review as usual though, thanks!

Wny people keep using Remaster and Remake as interchangeable terms? All Stars is a Remake, not a remaster.

I am glad they released a CD soundtrack of these games so we can now play the games with CD quality audio with an MSU-1 chip.

Your video really makes not being the top seller for 2 years sound horrendous. I never remember a time that had more Sega Households than Nintendo even if many Nintendo Households did not go SNES until 93 or 94. Not everyone had the money. I think a lot of Sega homes where ones that never got a NES and just saw Genesis as one of the current options and one that cost a little less. I also think it being the bargain is why 32x and the CD addon did not sell. Your market is the budget market so what are you thinking adding more cost.

They should have made Black Tiger the pack in game for the TurboGrafx16. It's much better than Keith Courage in Alpha Zone.

Wow you had to beat the game 8 times plus use a code in the original Super Mario 2 in order to get to level A-C? That's nuts!

I was 18 in 1996 and i never saw the cartoon lol😂. I was playing the games but i wasnt even aware of the DKC show

I always like your history videos, but I have to confess that it's funny to me when people try to paint Sega as the "cool, grown-up" system when their mascot was a funny blue cartoon rodent. Sure, Sega's advertising had more of that corporate-approved, focus group-tested "attitude" that sold well to Gen Xers who considered themselves rebellious because the TV told them that they were, but Nintendo's commercials in retrospect were far more creative. Sega (in America at least) was too preoccupied with appealing to normies. I'd also dispute that Nintendo lacked more mature games given the darker atmosphere of titles like Super Metroid and RPGs like Earthbound Would the "Play it Loud" campaign have existed without Sega? Probably not. Would "Donkey Kong Country?" Probably. The hardware war and the eagerness to be "next gen" all but guaranteed it. Granted, the marketing would have been different.

I still have 3 packs of my sonic life savers.
