Best Year for Super Nintendo - 1994 Was AMAZING

[@SarangJogi]

Being a 90s kid was such a blessing and how controllers would last back then because they were made to withstand raging and all the messy food fingers when you'd have friends over, not to mention the wires that would rarely ever break. There was something about the relationship with the controller and the character you were playing as. It was just immersive without a doubt.

[@PaperBanjo64]

I got about 7 SNES/Super Famicom controllers

[@Lord_of_the_Pies]

I never had to replace a single controller in the 8 and 16-bit days. However, I have to buy a new controller every year in this current era. The dual sense analogs will wear out just like every other analog. I even dropped my controller on the hardwood floor and it broke the d-pad and I had to slap it a bunch of times to get it to work again. It's amazing how worse the technology is in some ways

[@austinwarner5114]

Lol, thanks for the shout out boys! I’m the “staple” comment post guy! Good to see you have a good sense of humor. Good show, have a great day fellas!

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Cheers 🍻 brotha!

[@donjohnson7768]

As a Sega kid I was secretly deeply jealous of SNES owners around that time, DK Country was so rad and Mk 2 was so much better on the SNES!

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

I think it went both ways though lots of owners of snes and genesis wouldnt admit it! The real jealously was the people who had both! 🍻

[@WavesNGames]

Dude '94 was a solid year for the SNES. It's the time period I spent the most time at Toys R Us on the kiosk playing DKC and Ken Griffey Presents Major League Baseball. Great pick guys.

[@samuraibeastwarrior2886]

NBA Live 95

Those Kiosk were so fun! I did also! 🍻

This was indeed a great you for the SNES! There is so many hits and so much variety. Super Game Boy is just icing on top of the cake!

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Such an epic year! 🍻

[@zachreed1495]

1994 was absolutely epic for the SNES, and is one of my favorite years ever in gaming. I had a great time back then. I'd say my three favorite years in gaming were 1994, 1996, and 2007 due to how many incredible and different games came out during those years. Games I still play today.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

All great years in gaming for sure! Nice to revisit them! 🍻

Was a Genesis kid but that Super Nintendo was fun to play at my cousins house. We played Donkey Kong County a lot. Great Series!

It was so awesome back then so many people had one or the other so you could go to a friends house that had the other system you didnt! 🍻

I recently got a SNES and I've been loving playing these games on original hardware! 94 was a banger for games! (I was 2 years old LOL)

Same here dude!! Recently spent alot of money on 2 snes's, and alot of fricken games including, Final Fantasy 3, zelda, super Mario rpg, Chrono trigger,secret of mana DK Country 1,2 and 3, youshis island, Mario Kart, and a bunch others too!! Just bought a SNES Mini on Friday for $100. My collection is now complete!

[@jaredwilliams5289]

I turned 12 that year and our family moved that Jan so a lot of these multiplayer games helped me make some new friends. This video was pretty nostalgic for me, but I have to mention you forgot MK2 and Super Street Fighter 2. Also, give Illusion of Gaia a shot, it’s pretty great.

omg 1994 was the year I finally got a super nintendo. I got it with my life savings of $104 and it came with both SMW and Mario Kart. The only game that came out in 1994 that I actually got back then was Donkey Kong Country. That demo in department stores was taunting me. :)

[@mekman4]

I’m one of those people who would say that Donkey Kong Country 1 was overrated. I’m pretty old and I preferred the original and that’s what Nintendo put out around that time! Donkey Kong 94 for the GB was a much more clever and lengthy game. Despite being a four color screen the stages had more verity than DK Country and was over all a much more engaging game. That and Yoshi’s Island easily ate DK Country’s lunch. It took a lot to impress teenaged me in 1994. But for me Genesis still did a lot of what Nintendo took a long time to do. Great Coverage as always!

[@JimMorrisonsBathtub]

Super NES is one of the few consoles I like where I don't have a favorite year. My favorite game for it is a tie between A Link To The Past and Star Fox which came out in different years. Just give me any year in its lifespan and I probably won't complain.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Oh for sure! SNES whole life cycle was pretty amazing! 🍻

[@DongCorleone]

Late to the party, but you guys rock. Did you guys ever subscribe to or collect Ninteno Power? My parents thought it was a waste of money so my buddy would let me borrow some of his issues to read. I feel like I really missed out on that. Keep up the good work gentlemen.

The controller wasn't that bad for NBA Jam. I never had a problem using the Genesis controller. That's the console I had it on. Also, if it bothered you that much there was always the 6 button controller. I would argue the button layout on the SNES was better, but the DPAD on the Genesis was WAY better.

[@IMDLEGEND]

Yes! I was more of a Sega Genesis guy but in 94 Nintendo brought the hammer! I picked up my SNES in 93 when the price dropped to $99, and I was so happy with 94! For me it was all about DKC and Mortal Kombat II. With DKC I was wondering why nothing on the Sega attachments or more powerful systems looked as good as that. And when I first heard Aquatic Ambience, it sounded like a CD player was somehow snuck into my SNES! I was also so happy that Nintendo stopped sanitizing their game that year! MK2 was epic! Finally, I was blown away by Super Mario All Stars because it was the first time I recalled seeing a full remaster of a previous game, a trend that continues to this day. 94 was indeed the best SNES year but 92 and 95 were strong contenders too.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Very true 92 was on our rador for the year we just leaned 94! 🍻

[@drewtodd4471]

Man, I understand the love... somewhat. I went from 2600 which I barely understood how to hook up, and set modes and all that. But once you got into it, even on a basic level, you could have fun. Then it was NES. That thing rocked. Probably the best console ever made. Everything just worked. Super Nintendo never hit me the same way. What's that rhinestone thing? A bedazzler? It kinda felt like a cheap coat of paint when they really could have expanded. But that's just me. At ten I was too young to say get off my lawn, but I suppose a curmudgeon starts early. Snes brought a lot of people a lot of joy, and that's what is important.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Fully agree! It was an absolute hammer! 🍻

[@sirdouglasberg]

LOL. "Nintendo tapes" I remember that. The cartridge was a new thing. Parents didn't know what they were. But they knew VHS tapes! Must be Nintendo tapes then! Also, whatever console you got first is what your parents called every console. My first console was an NES. So my NES, as well as my Genesis, Saturn, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, XBOX etc were all referred to as Nintendo.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

You guys touch on sports titles in this vid and I'm curious if you ever played NBA live 99 cause it is so stinking good. I was young when my dad came home with a ps1 he picked up at a garage sale with Croc, Glover, Ape escape etc Also there was nba live 99 and I was *not* a sports fan. That is, until I plugged it in an could not stop playing it, and while I watch your channel, I put cpu vs cpu (utah jazz v chicago bulls) 12 minute quarter games on in the background just for ambience and nostalgia. These are just some thoughts, because in some of your vids you guys overall claim that ps1 doesn't exactly hold up super well in your opinion. Again just thoughts and perhaps a suggestion... I know theres a ton of territory to get through and I don't expect a response or anything... I love this channel for when I can't be with my few gaming friends or its late at night on a school night, it feels like I'm sitting down with my 2 friends.

[@ybloodyangely]

1994 was super stacked! For wrestling games, there were not any good ones until the N64 console, there were a bunch of good ones for WWF and WCW. Also Earthworm Jim was a cool game from 94, but definitely better on the Genesis.

2002 on GameBoy Advance would be a great year on a system to cover, I would have went broke if was old enough to have bought games for it back then!

[@avikellerman4539]

Really enjoying this series. 1994 was indeed a monumental year for the SNES. DK Country, Super Metroid, Super Punch-Out, Mega Man X, Demon's Crest, etc. So many great releases came out that year. People forget how big of a deal Donkey Kong Country was. Before that release Genesis and SNES sales were pretty much neck and neck. DK Country was the title that pushed the SNES ahead and gave a 2nd wind to the SNES. It was a system seller for sure and many people who had not bought a SNES up until that point finally made the plunge and bought the console. That said I think 1995 was a low key amazing year for the SNES as well. DKC 2, Final Fight 3, Kirby's Dreamland 3, Earthbound, Super Mario World 2 Yoshi's Island, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Evermore, Lufia 2, Tetris Attack, Mega Man 7, and more.

Donkey Kong Country was the first time graphics impressed me. So I have love for the SNES even if not my main thing.

Kind of wild Nintendo never budged and only gave us the Super Game Boy. While their handheld systems always embraced their prior generation with backwards compatibility, it wasn't until the Wii that a home console would have it.

The only thing I disagreed with is that I think NBA jam was better on the Genesis mostly for the fact that it had A LOT more of the announcer voice samples than the SNES version did and it had music, which the SNES version lacked.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Thats probably fair! My nostalgia pulls me to the SNES version! 🍻

I'd definitely agree, Sega really fumbled those last few years of the Genesis and Nintendo just went into absolute beast mode from 1994 until the Nintendo 64 came out, and even after the they still were making major titles. You could say Nintendo pulled a rope-a-dope, let Sega use up all their energy on shitty games made by Sega Technical Institute, and a bunch of add-ons nobody harly bought, and then just bam bam bam and knocked Sega out at the very end of the generation with major kick ass titles.

Donkey Kong country was and still is amazing. Here’s a thought, it would be sik since they did a version of donkey Kong country remastered so the levels and everything is same and still is a 2d platformer but in modern graphics

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

That would be cool! Never say Never! 🍻
