Console Wars - Paperboy 2 - Super Nintendo vs Sega Genesis

[@ELSTINKO.]

I love this series, gives off such a classic KZbin vibe. Just seems like two guys with a knack for make entertaining videos. Keep up the good work guys.

[@Specter227]

Is the SNES version a direct port of the NES version? Sure looks like it.

[@solarflare9078]

Yup, except this one is 30 FPS and not 60 FPS like the NES version for some reason.

[@kouheicoppola2157]

@@solarflare9078 probably because it was a rushed port and didn't take time for any optimization to adapt to the different hardware. I bet PB2 on Genesis was a build-from-ground-up project. Since NES already had a version of it, save time and money by just porting it over and improving.....almost nothing?

I got Paperboy 2 for SNES as my 2nd SNES game when I first received a Super Nintendo for Christmas. I had NO idea how superior the Genesis port was, I'm gonna check it out thanks to you guys.

[@seanmyster6]

Man, Sega Genesis just SLAUGHTERED Super Nintendo in this episode!

[@Nicksolo85]

Was this the 1st episode that ever happened? I've never watched every single episode. In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Turtles in Time & The HyperStone Heist) & Mortal Kombat II, Super Nintendo annihilated Sega Genesis.

[@seanmyster6]

@@Nicksolo85 I believe that Toy Story is at least one other instance of this happening, but I'd have to rewatch to be sure. I do think that Super Nintendo has gotten a higher number of perfect wins than Genesis so far. EDIT: Never mind, Super Nintendo won the graphics category for Toy Story. But there's probably other instances of perfect wins for Genesis that I'm just not remembering right now.

[@anonymouscontributor1520]

Nicksolo85 No I think this is the 3rd or 4th time that happened. The other times were Scooby-Doo and Mickey Mania, possibly others; but those are the only 2 I can think off the top of my head.

Pat is really good in this episode, I especially loved the way he reacted to hearing you mention Sega’s Jump button, he looked like Arnold Rimmer.

[@ryzmaker11]

Woah, there were a lot more points to discuss than what I expected! And the SNES version has a few solid arguments but it's otherwise so bad that it's still (yet) a(nother) win for the Genesis! Cool video guys, informative and with your typical campy humor that's too rare on youtube. keep up the good work!

[@phinny5608]

The level variety with SNES was the *only* advantage. Sega killed it on this one. This definitely puts in check my assumption that SNES versions are better by default.

@@knucklesechidna2124 I totally agree. But I'm afraid that nostalgia will have more weight in the decision. Like Ninja Gaiden: clearly, the first version is a better game on SMS (but Ninja Gaiden 3 on Nes is better then both).

Not a huge fan of 3, I actually prefer 1 and 2. But I do love the SMS version. Nobody ever talks about Shadow of The Ninja or Shinobi though. Ninja games rock!

[@Gambit771]

I had this on my Amstrad 612... did you say 'ZX Spectrum' correctly? You get paperboy points for that.

[@Gambit771]

@Jim Notor no. In English Zed is a letter. The original and only letter created a thousand years ago. Not zee. That's made up by non-english yanks so therefore isn't part of the real English language. An unneeded change for no other reason than a children's rhyme. Children's rhymes are supposed to get you started learning a language before you move on to learning the real sounds. That's why we say 'kay' and not 'kicking ker'. Also it is a name. I know yanks don't respect names but the rest of the world does which is why even though it should be zz top and not zee zee top we still use the incorrect bastardisation of the original and classic z. Same with the zx spectrum.
