Console Wars - Flashback - Super Nintendo Vs Sega Genesis

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you so much everyone for celebrating the big 100 with us! Glad so many of your are enjoying it! It nice to know all that effort didn't go to waste. I'm also grateful to all the amazing cameos we had! You're all wonderful people. I'm about to be a dad but I'll see you soon!!!

[@tomevil6]

Congratulations on the addition to your family! That was an amazing 100th episode!

[@tahnadana5435]

the one game that made me think, we havent innovate enough on cinematic platfromers

[@3xperiment8]

Congratulations, Dan! 🎉🎉🎉 We hope to see you soon!

[@gastervooodoooo]

I still wait Phantasy star IV vs Final Fantasy VI. WAIT.

[@TheJetJONES]

You'll be a dad? Congratulations, Dan 😁 Maybe your son, or daughter, also gonna be a SEGA gamer 😉

[@theonly1msbinny]

Again, Congratulations on not only releasing the 100th episode, but also congrats to Dan and his wife for having a baby! 💖

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you!

[@davidcurry332]

Congratulations bro

[@marplatense31]

So great seeing Greg again!

[@JEFFALITY]

Wish he reprised his role having his own Flashback

[@ulubulu_]

I spent the whole episode waiting for when we’d see him! (Just assumed he had to be in this one haha)

[@6sKi6z6]

As a Sega kid growing up, I’m happy it won episode 100. Congrats again for making it this far, guys. And good luck with your baby, Dan.

[@raptornerd4213]

I'm so glad Greg was in this at the end. I was hoping that he'd make an appearance. Great video guys. Best one yet. Congrats on 100 videos and raising a glass to 100 more.

[@robbvanderstoel7725]

No wonder you weren’t sure if you would actually finish this episode! What a huge undertaking!

[@ConsoleWars]

Yeah. Def a lot of work lol

[@mrdeatheli]

@Console Wars It was worth it, thank you!!

[@breathstealer5486]

Did not expect a complete beat down. Congrats on the 100th episode.

[@earthdragon515]

I had always heard the Genesis version was better, but I got it for my genesis after seeing a friend play it on their Super nintendo and never saw it on the SNES after that. Glad to finally see the breakdown

[@DP12321]

He kind of brushed aside the 24-second "saving feature" but that's like upgrading from a PS4 to a PS5 if you played on SNES. That long time to wait is no fun and is one of the main advantages cartridges or modern SSDs have. However a worse framerate is more detrimental. This felt like a Digital Foundry episode in the best way lol.

[@Danblukk]

I did. I have both and the Mega Drive version outshines the Snes is every department.

[@3xperiment8]

It is a Sega Genesis game.

[@lo1bo2]

I LOVED Flashback on the Genesis, and eventually got the Sega CD version. It felt so immersive. Thanks for the entertainment, guys!

[@momerion]

Congratulations guys! 100 episodes! Hope there will be a Lot more! Wish you all the best!!

[@spine--damaged]

Ah this one is easy! Best Flashback game goes to SEGAAA Genesis!

[@knightshifter2201]

Lol nicely done.

[@BladeBlur]

I will reiterate this as many times as needed: Congratulations for hitting that 100 episode milestone! Your tenacity and passion showed throughout and you only got better throughout the years! But more importantly, thank you for providing entertainment for me when I and others needed most in life. I go through a lot of rough patches, but when I feel bad I like to put a random console wars episode just to feel better. In fact that day we got to work together in 2016 was one of the highlights of my youtube career because I enjoyed your work so much! And of course it goes without saying that I appreciate being invited over to this episode as well! Thank you, Dan, Pat, and everyone else who ever contributed to Console Wars, and we'll see you back soon! Much love to you, Sam and the upcoming bundle of joy

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you for your excellent contribution to this episode!

[@Sohappytoshowus]

one of the very best game of the early nineties for the 100th Episode! Can't miss. I actually played it on Amiga 500 back in the time.

[@imkerrusin]

I'm glad to see Greg participating on this also. That was quite the treat. I wish him well. :) Congrats on the milestone! Keep up the good work!

[@colos3284]

O, yeah. That was MASTERPIECE episode! Thank you for such good work for all this years! Wow-wow. I hope that next episode after this will be about the long-awaited comparison !!! Maybe between Phantasy Star 4 vs Final Fantasy VI? P.S. I really hope that at least someday this comparison will come out...

[@gastervooodoooo]

Absolutely agree! It's been a more than 8 years waiting...

[@chrisbeach423]

I remember finding this channel like 7 years ago, and im so glad I did!! Congrats on 100 episodes!! This video also made me realize SNES DRUNK never has had a face reveal 😂

[@3xperiment8]

He's shown his face in the Bill Laimbeer Basketball review

[@micktaylor9332]

They missed a trick with SNES drunk, before he hung up the phone I wanted him to say "so guys, have a perfect rest of you're day" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@rammers2802]

​@@micktaylor9332 Uh, he did? Well he said 'Have a great rest of your day', which is his usual signoff. Unless perfect is a variation I'm not aware of?

[@rammers2802]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKW5pnuCepV7gZI　here you go, one of his earliest. I guess they wanted to make it clear who he was since he usually doesn't show his face

[@micktaylor9332]

@@rammers2802 yeh you're right. I must have missed that lol. 🤣🤣

[@marcelo20xxxx]

Love the cooperation between fellow youtubers, congratulations on the 100th episode...

[@Giantsfanlewis]

100 episodes. Joined right around when Greg left. Glad the show continued since then. You guys are awesome

[@voxtek]

It's going to really suck not having another episode for some time, but Im happy for you Dan. Be sure to break them in right and start them on retro games!

[@49erfanaticfromnm30]

After 100 episodes that theme song still hits hard.

[@fireteardrops]

The amount of detail you guys put into every single episode is astonishing.

[@miahthorpatrick1013]

You guys definitely did not disappoint for the 100th episode. So many great moments! Dan, I gotta say though I love the way you say "Sega Genesis!" while in character. I never get tired of that!

[@ConsoleWars]

Thanks!

[@branscombe_]

my parents got me this game on layaway, 10$ a week for like 2 months and i played for months and could never beat the final level i cannot wait to watch this ❤️

[@execation]

How many people have said 'WHAT? THAT'S IT! ARE WE DOING THIS?!' and then waited patiently for Pat's response? WELL DONE DAN AND PAT! And CONGRATS DAN on the new Console Warrior! Love this channel. You guys are so fun and goofy! 🖤

[@JohnRiggs]

congrats on 100!

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you for that excellent cameo!

[@MarleneAngel09]

The 100th episode was too good! Loved seeing all the familiar faces especially Greg! Congratulations, you guys and thank you for so many great memories 😊 Oh and congratulations, Dan!!! You and Sam are gonna be great parents 🩷💙🩷💙

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you!

[@jtomally9681]

Graphics: There may be minor details that give a sight edge with both, but not much. The cutscenes are smoother on the Genesis. The cutscenes alone win it for Sega. Presentation: The placement of the text in the cutscenes and language doesn't give much of an edge. The slowness of the cutscenes on SNES does give Genesis and edge. Sound: SNES songs do sound better than the Genesis. Genesis does have more to hear, though. Genesis is still in the lead. Gameplay: Slowdown is something to expect on SNES. A long time to save on Genesis is always dreadful (if that really happens or if these guys were just making fun of it). The smoothness of the gameplay in Genesis is better overall. Genesis wins this one. Next game is ...... ? Wait, no hint this time?

[@Avalon64]

Quite the flashback...thank you guys for being such an awesome and interesting channel to stay tuned with...since you guys made it to 100 I'll admit something to you, there are only 2 channels talking about retro video games I still regularly watch and I mean EVERYTIME there's a new episode...everyone else is a from time to time thing (you ironically featured alot of them as your cameo guests lol)...but they are the AVGN...and you guys at Console Wars...I am proud to admit that since the first episode I watched (it wasn't Aladdin your ACTUAL first episode) no I recall it was the Animaniacs one...I still crack up when I remeber "or you might be beaten by Royalty!" Anyway enjoy the break you guys have earned it...and I hope fatherhood treats you well, Dan...I only have one friend who is a father, he tells about the experience all the time, the goods and bads but its something he'd never trade for anything in the world...well I rambled enough, peace until we see you guys again!

[@ConsoleWars]

Thanks!

[@The64Whore]

First minute and already feeling the celebration vibes with a slight tear in my eye. Congrats on 100 amazing videos and beyond!

[@MyRetroLife]

Finally got around to watching this completely! Such a great episode man. One of my Dad’s favorite games. Thanks for including me

Thanks for My Retro Bread!

[@miesvaillanykyisyytta3252]

Congrats! Greetings from Finland. You are like real friends to me that I never had in my immediate, physical environment.

[@hopscotch916]

Nice throwback to episode 99. Congrats in your 100th episode!!!

[@Bubbabyte99]

Happy 100th episode guys! You guys are one of the most undersubbed and underrated channels on KZbin! Seriously, I've always thought that you guys deserve WAY more subscribers than you currently have, and I still think that. Hopefully more people will realize what a quality channel you guys have eventually and you'll earn the subs that you guys have always deserved! Here's to 100 more episodes!

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you!

[@JMFSpike]

Wow, major cameo overload in this one! Always great to see the OG co-host Greg too. I would love to see him come back as co-host for a nostalgic one-off episode. I've heard a few people claim that the SNES is not actually that much slower then the Genesis. The argument is apparently that the CPU was just very different and developers didn't know how to get the most out of it. I really have to question that though, because every time games are compared the SNES version is significantly slower. You can't tell me that not a single developer knew how to get top speed out of the SNES. Even brawlers released later in the SNES' life could only handle 3 enemies on screen without slowdown. Genesis brawlers could have up to 6 or 7 enemies on screen without slowdown.

[@RitzLazyArtist]

It needs an SA-1 patch with a help from Vitor Vilela

[@keeper7keys2003]

Congratulations! 💯 The ending was amazing! 😱 I'm subscribed to the most of the channels at the end!😜

One of the best episodes to date. Congrats and heres to another 100 more!! 🎉🎉🎉

Love your show! Congratulations on episode 100!!

[@nastyvandal]

Long live Console Wars! Thanks Dan, Pat, Greg and everyone. Salute!

[@MrMarrekkk]

You are what we need not sure whether we deserve-thank you for all your hard work, in a way I’m glad I’ve only found your channel in 2022 so instead of waiting long for every new episode I can bing-watch all the old ones. It’s The Console War!

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you so much!

[@Vulpas]

"Asking all the Luke Skywalkers to milk you" I'd expect that from Pastrami not you guys 😂🤣

[@thenodfather]

Congratulations On Getting To Episode 100!!! Hopefully at some time you can release a collection or collections. Thank you for a great show and all the best for the future 🙂👍

[@thegreatshamalamadingdong9788]

Well since the makers of flashback said the mega drive version is the best I think this will be an easy win for sega. Loved this game when it first came out and still play it to this day 😊

[@euphoriaentertainmentcompa2605]

As a former Nontendo fan boy, this statement would have hurt my feelings 🤣

[@3xperiment8]

@@euphoriaentertainmentcompa2605 Are u a Sega fanboy now? 😆 Flashback was a game made for Genesis hardware and after converted to Snes, so It was expected

[@euphoriaentertainmentcompa2605]

​​@@3xperiment8 90's me is a die hard Nontendo fan boy that finally gave 90's Sega the respect they commanded with their later Genesis titles like Shinobi 3, Phantasy Star 4 and whatnot. This was arguably one of the best and most intense generations of gaming! I ended up loving them both equally! ❤ Nontendo only gained an edge in the music/sound department.

[@3xperiment8]

@@euphoriaentertainmentcompa2605 Nah. Nintendo had the edge in sound, graphics and gameplay. Only thing Genesis had the edge was in a bigger amount of arcade titles.

[@robsmall6466]

​@@3xperiment8 For every SNES title that had great graphics and gameplay you could find a Megadrive equivalent. Sound is subjective ( SOR 2 for example has a legendary soundtrack ). Never have two consoles been so equally matched. Proper glory days and the plug and play nature is how things should be with a console

[@planetTU]

"I'm Nintendo....and I'm Sega." Me: THIS IS CONSOLE WARS!!!! Love the channel guys!

[@thingsiplay]

I like how they always have the game in their hands what they randomly talk about. Real gamers!

Main reason the SNES version suffered is because this game was developed for the Genesis/Mega Drive then ported over :D

[@kevcalled368]

Kudos! Great episode - has been awesome watching the show throughout these 100 episodes!

[@roylam3329]

Man! I know I've been heaping praise on your Episodes over and over, but this has got to be your best one yet! I'd even go as far as to say it's your magnum opus! Definitely a worthy way to celebrate hitting that 100th Episode Milestone!!! Coverage of the Game itself was great! Like I said in the comments of the previous Episode, Flashback is one of the Games I've been looking forward to the most. It's one of those games I've wanted to play through, or at least watch a full playthrough of for ages, but I never got around to doing either. I did watch a playthrough of the Flashback demo for PC, covering the entire 1st Level. Thanks for showing off what Flashback has to offer in such great detail! I guess you could say that the Plot, with all the Sketches was the real star of today's Episode, rather than the Game itself. Oh boy! You've really outdone yourselves in the Plot and Sketches department! I guess I was expecting you to put in everything you got for Plot and Sketches since you're celebrating 100 Episodes, but man, this Episode has got to have the best Plot and Sketches for this Show ever! When I saw there were still about 10 minutes left when you finished the Review, I just knew you had something amazing and epic coming up. You did not disappoint there! Loved the callbacks, which certainly made me feel glad I'd seen every single Episode of Console Wars from beginning to end! Oh, and I still love the ways you find to reuse characters and costumes from past Episodes! Seeing Earthworm Jim on this Show never gets old! I also loved the Guest Appearances at the end, even though I'm not familiar with most of the Guests. I guess I liked SnesDrunk's cameo best, since he's the Guest whose stuff I've seen the most of! Oh, and Greg's cameo was great too! Oh, and that ending! Gosh, that was an excellent way to end your 100th Episode! I did see your video giving us the news of the new baby, so I think this Episode's ending was a fine way to prepare us for should be a long wait for the next Episode! Don't worry, I'm sure it'll be worth it. Phew! That's got to be my longest Comment I've posted here ever! One of my longest, at least! However, it sure felt worth the effort thinking it up and typing it out for this Episode! CONGRATULATIONS ON 100 EPISODES!!!!!!!! Here's to many more!!!

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you so much! I read it all. I really appreciate the kind words. This episode was a lot of work so its nice when that's recognized.

[@jonbourgoin182]

Just for fun, I gave some thought as to what you guys could do for milestone episodes such as this one, and I remembered what a shame it was that Dave had to leave Gamesack. They had the Sega vs Nintendo rivalry gimmick similar to you guys and a crossover special with both your channels seems like it would've been a no-brainer. Congrats on 100 episodes and cheers to 100 more! 🥂

Man, 100 episodes. Thank you for so many good times... the writing was on point for this one; I enjoyed the choice of Flashback for the retrospective episode, and you did the usual amazing(ly campy) job of tying the plot together. It was good to see Greg, too. He looks healthy, and I hope he's in a great place in life. Whether there are more Console Wars to come or this is a farewell to arms, I wish you guys all the best.

[@MrJechgo]

Congrats on 100 episodes, truly a milestone there ^_^ While I... don't have a single clue how you could compare Mario vs Sonic, you could compare some of Sonic's games, as both Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 were on both the Sega Dreamcast and the Nintendo Gamecube ;) In fact, when Sega becames a 3rd-party dev and dropped as a console manufacturer, they ported a ew of their Dreamcast games on other platforms, such as Crazy Taxi, Phantasy Star and Skies of Arcadia :) BTW, comparing Sonic the Hedgehog 1 & 2 and The Super Mario Bros. movies would be a great alternative :D

[@RonRose]

I had Flashback for both the SNES and the Sega Genesis back in the day and always preferred the Genesis version. The music has a darker, ominous feel and, as stated in the video, the cutscenes are butter smooth. That said the Sega CD version has grown on me quite a bit over the years. Also, the remake is meh. Stick to the retro editions. They still rock.

[@sfighter0085]

About time I re-watched this. Again, a huge congratulations for finally reaching 100 episodes. It seems like yesterday, in 2021, I watched (or played in the background) my first "Console Wars" episode, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters", and then I decided to binge this awesome show. Everything from the original Greg Era all the way to Pat Era, this show has been hilarious and kind of informative. In fact I did buy the likes of "Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure", "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie", and "NBA Jam Tournament Edition" (even though the episode was on the first "NBA Jam" ports) on the Sega, none which I've played yet. Major props to all who worked on this milestone. The cameos, the clips from both eras, and the twists all were handled well. Great to see this celebrate 11 years of this series. So here's to another 100 episodes, when Dan gets back from break. Also again, congratulations to Dan and Sam for having a baby. 👶

[@ConsoleWars]

Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it!
