Back in the 90s my family was poor but my father was able to buy us a Genesis model 2 from a pawn shop along with Shaq Fu. I knew it was a bad game but I still thanked my dad and gave him a hug. Funny enough the game grew on me as I played it more.

[@ConsoleWars]

Its not terrible. Especially for a kid

[@captainthunderbolt7541]

Back in the day we learned to love our bad games, because it was a long time until the next birthday or Christmas...

[@SailorPalutena]

@@ConsoleWars I actually liked it when a child

[@PikaLink91]

As kids we appreciated what we had, because that was ALL we had. Today as adults with disposable income where many of us have 100+ games on our backlog we have become super spoiled.

​@@PikaLink91Hey... some kids were spoiled as hell.

[@Juice2Fifty]

Wow, I had no idea the SNES version was missing so much!

[@3xperiment8]

It is. I think it's the same case as Mickey Mania. A game released for Genesis and terribly ported to Snes with no care at all. At least in this case we don't miss much 😃

[@nimaiiikun]

seems like the SNES version used a lower memory cartridge.

[@3xperiment8]

@@nimaiiikun the problem is not necessarly the memory but being a port from a different system. It always comes to lazyness. Because some aspects of the game had to be redesigned and in 99% of cases developers didn't. Then comes cropped.screeen and random missing content

[@euphorik3120]

true, depending on developers. and good ports we'll see in Console Wars next episode

[@Jburneyjr]

Yea I rented the sega version after already owning the SNES version out of curiosity. I was shocked by how much more was on the Sega version.

Someone broke into our house and stole our Genesis and all of our games, except for Shaq Fu. It was so “bad” that even the robbers didn’t want it…. Side note, I actually like this game.

[@brandonsclips7741]

The only bad things about a new console wars episode is having to wait for the next one to drop. Grsat episode fellas I'm probably one of the 5 people who dig this game haha

[@euphorik3120]

agreed. i somewhat avoid that which is better argument of these two consoles but these guys made it fun. although i've always enjoyed learning about the differences and versions. also, practically none of Console Wars episodes keep calling everything "retro". thats gotten so annoying the last few years. videogames are just videogames.

[@SamsterEntertainment]

I grew up on the Genesis version. Had no idea who Shaq was yet and rarely played story mode. So I didn't hate it

[@TheStormMage]

A month

[@theonly1msbinny]

Great video! Also another tidbit that you missed in terms of graphics is that in the Genesis version, the characters have shadows. Meanwhile in the SNES version, they have no shadows

[@ConsoleWars]

How did I miss that?

[@euphorik3120]

ha, i remember that too

[@euphorik3120]

another subtle thing i recall is missing some background animation too. i didnt know about other differences ya mentioned; very interesting. must've been another rushed game because of budget and/or time restraints i wonder. that hurts games so much, always wanna get in there and fix it, wish i were a game developer, i'd hack & modify so many games.

[@BubbaAce]

Man, don't you hate it when you're just working and then a snake comes out of nowhere and bites you. I hate it when that happens XD Love these episodes to death!

[@chrisb4350]

I don't think its the worse game ever not even the worse fighting game. The Genesis had loads of piss poor street fighter clones. Great episode really enjoyed it.

[@jtomally9681]

Graphics: Both versions are cropped. SNES has less levels. SNES is worse here. Presentation: Less details in all departments for SNES. SNES is worse here. Sounds: There may be a little bit more songs on Genesis, but it is nothing to brag or gripe about. Eveything else is equal. Tie. Gameplay: I never played the SNES version, but I have played the Genesis version. The controls are poor. Other people have said that the SNES controls are smoother than Genesis. I'd rather take less characters over broken controls. More scoreboards means nothing in the long run. If you want to brag or gripe about that, what is wrong with you? Segs has the worst of this department in my book. SNES does come out worse than Genesis, but I'd rather play SNES because of the smoother gameplay. Wolfchild is next.

[@markula_4040]

Congratulations to the Sega Genesis for having the better version of Shaq Fu. I love how Pat got to use cropping and Dan got to use better instrumentation as their points for once.

[@rick-deckard]

No. Congrats to SNES for the worst 😃

[@BigEWR]

I pity the man who was programming the SNES version of Shaq Fu. Electrocution, exploding, and snake bites all on the same day? That's just a rotten way to go.

[@grinbrothers]

To Shaq Fu's credit, they avoided the easy route of making a basketball game out of a basketball player and I appreciate the originality in the genre choice. As for predicting which game I think will be worse... well the SNES has more buttons, so that gives the Mega Drive version the advantage in being worse. 1:23 - Welp; was not expecting Pat's dream to have absolutely nothing to do with the game being reviewed... unless this is a metaphor for a buggy game. 3:47 - I enjoyed learning about this fact and it... oddly explains a lot. Shaq Fu has always had a stiffness to the movement yet the animation manages to look nice at the same, much like a cinematic platformer. 4:39 - So far, the Mega Drive version is surprisingly looking a little better. The SNES version has a smoother look, but the dots of the Mega Drive environments give a greater sense of texture. The rocks look grainy and the grassy hills in the distance look more likely. 7:02 - Shaq Fu managing more here than a lot of fighting games with including arcade endings to go alongside the devoted story mode. Gosh... this game actually had a lot of love poured into it. 7:44 - Like, I know the gameplay is the thing that truly holds Shaq Fu back, but the critiques here for the graphics and presentation are so hilariously minor. It's kind of amazing. This truly had the makings of a great game, just not the gameplay part. 10:53 - Gosh, I feel sorry for the poor developer on the SNES version here. As for the songs, I think Sega's is better here. The SNES has a better sound quality but to the Mega Drive's credit, they don't try to replicate exactly what the SNES is doing with it's music. They change quite a bit of the beat and end up making the music rather distinctive and a little more exotic in some ways. 13:51 - An yet, it's a nice feature. The problem I see here is the sheer amount of buttons you need for everything. Perhaps 3 or even 2 attack buttons would have been better than having two Lights and two Heavy attacks. 15:00 - Yeah, missing a whole five characters is pretty significant for a fighting game. Seems like the SNES has a clean sweep of being the worse version of Shaq Fu. 19:50 - The beard joke got a real good laugh out of me. Fantastic video!

Glad you enjoyed it!

A great episode again. Your reviews are like always excellent, but your real time stories are every time a big surprise. By Pat´s dinner scene for example I had to think about the dinner scene from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Keep it up!

[@WarioSaysSo]

I have been waiting for this! Shaq Fu was impossible to ignore forever for Console Wars! Personally I bought years ago both the SNES and MD versions !!! And since Shaq Fu was developed on the Sega platform and then ported to the SNES. The Sega version of Shaq Fu has 5 more playable characters; Auroch, Colonel, Diesel, Leotsu & Nezu + 3 more stages; The Lab, The Wasteland & Yasko Mines. Also the Sega version has a longer story mode. Why content was lost is anyone's guess I guess, but many developers including Delphine Software found it much easier to work with software on the MD/Genesis and then port it all over to the SNES platform rather then vice-versa. Also Sega had a lower license fee so that could also be a factor for many developers.

[@SomeOrangeCat]

Delphine should have been ashamed to put their name on this game. Period.

[@iwanttocomplain]

SNES rom cost more.

[@WarioSaysSo]

@@iwanttocomplain Hmm I don't know about that so I have to let that be, but I can't imagine a rom on a SNES is very much different from a Sega rom. But I need to look that up as it is very possible due to the SNES having larger tech support.

[@iwanttocomplain]

@@WarioSaysSo I just read that once somewhere. There’s a few different kinds of rom on SNES: loRIM, hiROM, ‘fastROM’ and ‘slowROM’. Something like that.

[@WarioSaysSo]

@@SomeOrangeCat - The game is graphical, design and sound wise a very good fighting game. And I have been playing it on both systems back then and liked it. The only thing that ruins the full expesrience is the CONTROLS. That's it. A game can't be rated a disaster like it has if all else is decent to good but the controls only. However that is also the most important factor to work with any game or else it will not be regarded that well. Still I find this game decent enough among 16-bit fighting games as it requires more practise to master it and find your character(s) that work for you (well in VS. mode). Balls, Heavy Nova, Fat-Man, Batman Forever and others was worse fighting then this.

[@BADC0FFEE]

Shaq Fu is considered bad only in the us, mostly because Shaq, I had no idea who Shaq was when I played this and my friends and I loved this game. Sure, it's no street fighter but the setting is pretty cool and the graphics are great

Makes me wonder if someone did a rom hack of the SNES version to add in the missing features and stages from the Genny release. Dear lord, this wasn't even a contest. The Genny version was hands down the better version of the game between the two. Not that this was a great game by any stretch, but damn, it really was far worse on SNES.

[@MichaelAarons1701]

I have the SEGA version and I’ve never really understood the hate for this game. When it comes to controls I’ve never been able to do any special moves anyway in any fighting games. I was one of those _Mortal Kombat_ or _Street Fighter_ players who just cheeses the duck/up-punch tactic out of desperation. I wasn’t able to beat it because that one old man at the gate would usually own my ass and run out of lives. I was able to sit there striving to get further in the story mode so I wasn’t hating on it ever. Is the next episode _Wolfenstein?_

[@euphorik3120]

[@loganjorgensen]

That's kind of the problem with consensus-thinking, it can be hard to say anything good about what the group deems bad.🤔 Like I think at the very least it's a graphically lush title with some excellent pixel art. Yeah a Delphine special using small sprites with many frames, but even SF2 has moves that are only use two frames so excellence in the genre isn't about smooth animation. 6:00 Hey it could have gone that way, actually a lot of stories of game development along those lines.😉 A really tough one to rate between versions as the cross platform work was fairly seamless in Shaq Fu which is actually something else to praise too. Most of the time the Genesis one would look much worse, or the SNES one would be lacking in colors if the source art was too Genesis optimal. This one definitely came down to nitpicking the finer presentation points.😐Great sketches guys, love that commentary on recent ancient monuments.😅

[@RadioTails]

I feel people only hate this game because Shaq's in it. If Shaq was replaced with a generic human character, I feel this might not be hated so much. Sure it's not the best fighting game, but there are much worse ones out there (like Ballz). It's a shame the controls were bad, because the graphics are really smooth and fluid. The fact the SNES was missing stages and characters is hilarious. Did the SNES not have enough blast processing?

[@michaelgonzales92mg]

[@GandalfJugon]

I think this game is not so bad as people say. I think it would be better as a platform game, but I think is a fun game.

[@BlueMageWithSoulEdge]

I swear I am the only person that liked this game. This game isn't anywhere as bad as others' claim. I didn't hear negative things about this game until after AVGN fad hit. I think the earliest I heard the propaganda was from Screw Attack. They did a podcast about how they hated the game 'cause they couldn't beat it. This prompted their fans to nod their heads and agree without even playing it-- till this day, the only people that hate it are ones that don't play fighting games and try to play it like Street Fighter. Which makes sense since Screw Attack themselves didn't play games [we found that out during gamer-gate], especially not fighters. It's its own game. It has its own rules. If you try to play it like Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat then it's a "bad" game. Also, I believe the story behind NES missing features is the team was told the game was suppose to be Sega exclusive, and the plains were changed like 3 months before release; they had to scramble to translate everything into the NES. Great show. Love it.

[@euphorik3120]
