We had a lot of fun making this one. Lots of silly skits. Hope you guys enjoyed it!

We sure did.

Nice callback to the previous episode, guys.

You guys are awesome. Test Drive 2 The Duel, PLEASE

[@RayRayZ28]

Already, one of the real good ones!!!

[@dustman820]

@dbnydnvn That is because gameplay is worth more than the other categories if they tie in the episode. I wonder if one got Graphics, Presentation, and Sound, but the other got gameplay in an episode before?

[@jamessantos9861]

This is a criminally underrated KZbin channel. Keep up the great work guys.

[@atum497]

No response 😢

[@marcusryan9129]

Genesis ate SNES'S lunch with this game. Sega you could play as all of characters, jump into the background plus the music was 🔥

[@THENAMEISQUICKMAN]

Yeah, even though Fatal Fury 1 isn't a very good game in general, the music alone makes the Genesis/Mega Drive version better. There's just no impact with the SNES music whereas the drums and bass really thump on the Sega version.

[@nmpltleopardi]

FF1 is awesome. If you look at it from the right pov.

[@PointReflex]

@@nmpltleopardi I wouldn't say awesome, the game is allright for its time, but feels very limited compared to Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat, however it was the first one from the series so that can be forgiven, specialy since right afterwards they kicked in the Fatal Fury series into gold status.

[@teyanzi]

The comedy has been A+ lately. Still laughing about the batman forever one.

@John Smith Sega is not dead. And Nintendo doesn't take a backseat to anybody

[@That1PissedOffBoomer]

Dearly love your channel too!!! Can we get a Complete history of Fatal Fury? Pretty please!!

[@That1PissedOffBoomer]

@@Arayig1982 Fuck no they don’t. Wii straight up murdered its rivals, Switch is selling like hot cakes and even their consoles like the N64 and GC brought a lot to the table. N64 brought straight out the box 4-player gaming, popularized analog sticks (may not have been the first but they did it better), controller vibration technology, true 3-D gaming and created the best reviewed game of all time, Ocarina of Time. The GC introduced some new incredible and innovative franchises like Animal Crossing and Luigi’s Mansion and gave us tons of pure excellent games. Even the Wiiu misfire had a lot of great ideas behind it. I could literally go on and on and on about the great things Nintendo has done for the video game industry from its inception in gaming all the way to current times if you don’t think Nintendo is a good company and you don’t think that they still don’t have a lot of influence on the games we play and you honestly are dumb enough to think Nintendo is an important anymore you’re a goddamn motherfucking idiot and I’ve got nothing to say to you because you know Not a motherfucking thing about video games because I could come up with 50 ways why you’re a fucking idiot and you’re fucking wrong

[@BigEWR]

Gotta love how where one console lacks in something, the other has problems of its own. It's the kind of tension that keeps it a fair fight.

[@rexstylers8873]

[@musicvideoenhancer]

I'm a former Nintendo fan, loved the "console war" back in the 90's. Today I'm into Xbox. But I have to admit, in this one, gameplay is king, and Genesis version has the better gameplay.

[@curtiswilson4737]

By a severe long shot! Fatal Fury 2 was the same. Nintendo looked better, but Sega's moves was super easy to pull off, their combo system was a beast, and you can select the 4 bosses by holding start, and scroll down past the bottom characters. Super Nintendo was more details, and Sega was more gameplay.

[@WarfareRidge]

You ever just bet with a friend on whether Sega or SNES will win before you watch an episode of Console Wars?

[@jacobprice8048]

First line of the video "I'm never eating urinal cakes again". I'm dead and don't need to see any more

[@ConsoleWars]

Pat improvised that line

[@thevoivod]

@@ConsoleWars How much improvising would you say the pair of you do during a regular script? Do you tend to stick mostly to what's written or does it depend on the episode?

[@ConsoleWars]

@@thevoivod Depends. We follow the script pretty well. Sometimes I'll rewrite something on the spot and sometimes I'll see if Pat can come up with something better.

Ok, I don't know what it is but the cutaway skits are better than ever. I've binged every single episode of Console Wars and never have I laughed this hard! 😆

[@SailorPalutena]

Guys, please listen to Sound Beach on the ARCADE and notice that the Genesis version is WAY more similar than the SNES. I know people like the SNES sintetizer, but it shouldn't be about opinion, but fidelity to the source.

[@bennahum9642]

SNES doesn't have a synthesizer.

[@juanelpito]

Bob Cook prefiero la música de Snes aunque sea comprimida

[@mainstreetsaint36]

I can't wait until I get to witness the greatness of Earthworm Jim's pretzel art Expo.

[@Albert8044]

Also under the gameplay category, the special moves. On Snes version special moves has a second delay when performing special moves and at times it gets frustrating which takes away the fun. On Sega Genesis special moves can be pulled off smoothly and easily without any delay or hassle.

[@Evilriku13]

I've been waiting for this eversince I found this channel 5-6 years ago!

[@NeoTurboManiac78]

There should have been more references to the arcade version. I agree that the Genesis port is better, even with two missing characters. The worst part about the Super NES port is the input lag in the controls.

[@xtremegold2950]

snes version is a awful port

[@meowplow]

Always happy to see a new episode. You guys are working really well off each other & the skits are always hilarious. Keep it up! Also, loved the masks

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you!

[@jrvegeeta]

I’m a Nintendo fan, but the SNES version could NOT in anyway touch the Genesis game. That said, NeoGeo fans are likely laughing at those 2 versions.

[@evvierusso4528]

You can get a neo geo pretty inexpensively now. I have an arcade to home conversion I got from china. it's pretty cool.

[@IslandBoy-808]

Maybe so,but at the time of release, not a lot of people was going to spend $$100-$200 for a game. And the Genesis version comes closer to the Neo-Geo version than the SNES version.

[@StormsparkPegasus]

@@evvierusso4528 You can emulate a Neo Geo perfectly on a potato now...it was super powerful in its time, but at its heart it was still a 16-bit system, even if it had a very unusual GPU setup.

Until this day , i still kick myself for seeing this game for the genesis at my local mom and pops shop back in 93 and not buying it because i was so vain , saying ''how can a neo geo game look and play any good on a simple 16 bit system ?'' gosh , i was dumb back then.....i would have had a lot of fun with this game back then.

[@EpicLebaneseNerd]

@Bob Cook yeah, those early snk games were not that great, thinks like sengoku 1 and even burning fight...but when we reached fatal fury special and art of fighting 2, well, the difference was staggering , but i agree, the early snk games were a but underwhelming to say the least and not much better than what normal 16bit hardware was capable of.

[@therealwarrioroflight]

[@markula_4040]

I'm guessing the SNES version was half-assed in development because they knew they would not be pulling people away from Street Fighter 2. On the Genesis, Fatal Fury came out before Street Fighter (I think) so they had more reason to make that version better.

[@juarezamorim]

i think they told the people who made the snes version that would be a single player game only, and in the last minute they add the multiplayer since is a fighting game

[@tskraj3190]

SNK had a cross licensing agreement with Sega. If SNK gave Sega the superior port over Nintendo's port, Sega would continue to release Sega's exclusive games to the NEO GEO. Fatal Fury Special was a way to kiss Nintendo's butt after being screwed over by Sega in their cross licensing agreement.
