Tim Houston I'm personally referring to the mess that is the PC version of the game. Yeah it does look better (at least when you edit the INI file to turn on shadows that for some stupid reason is turned off by default) and thank god that they fixed the physics so that they don't run at 30 unlike the rest of the game, but they really didn't do much to the game to be honest. Hell, there are a ton more of technical issues with the PC version, and just strange changes like how the first person models are locked at 60fps, while in the original game they weren't locked to a frame rate. I've heard it's good on the consoles, but on PC, it's a fucking mess.

Probably 90% of Wii games made the console look like it was less powerfull than the gamecube, as many were just adaptations of PS2 games... So there's quite a lot of choice there.

cthulhu Pthagn That's a fair point. I guess I've just never thought of those particular Mega Drive games as being particularly bad examples of the console's power. They both run at 60 fps and originate many years before the console existed. The technical jump between, say, Streets of Rage and SOR2 is more impressive to me than any technical disappointment that Flicky and NZS might represent as Mega Drive games, if that makes sense.

@frankschneider61568 жыл бұрын
The Genesis was absolutely not compatible with the SMS, at least not out of the box without an adapter. The SMS used an 8-Bit Zilog Z-80 CPU, while the Genesis used a Motoriola 68000. That is even less binary compatible than french fries and horseradish flavoured whipped cream.
@SuperHamsterGaming8 жыл бұрын
Frank Schneider You're partially right, and partially wrong. The Genesis does have a 68k CPU, it also has a Z80. Usually the Z80 in the Genesis runs the audio program, but it is also used for backwards compatibility with the Master System. All the Power Base converter does is convert the cartridge shape, and trigger the pin on the Genesis slot that tells it to go into Master System mode. The Master System games run on Genesis's own Z80 with no other conversion needed. In fact if you have a Genesis Everdrive you can load Master System roms right of the cartridge. The only Master System games that won't run on the Genesis are ones that use the SG1000 graphics modes. The SG1000 was Sega's system before the Master System and the Master System was also backwards compatible. The Genesis however does not have SG1000 graphics modes. So yes the main CPU in a Genesis is a 68k, but it does have a Z80 and is 99.99% compatible with the Master System's software.
@TheDeeplyCynical8 жыл бұрын
A bit of trivia, Phantasy Star (the first game) had a limited edition Mega Drive release in Japan was just a master system ROM in a Mega Drive Shell. The Z80 CPU took vontrol of the system and ran the game in SMS mode.
@frankschneider61568 жыл бұрын
Super Hamster Gaming First: Great Answer, I obviously didn't know about a Z80 as a Co-processor at the time I wrote the post. So thanks for the info. It actually somewhat explains, why the Genesis is largely quite up to the level of the SNES, despite otherwise weaker specs. But I doubt that the Z80 usually did most of the audio stuff, as it has 2 dedicated processors for that (I just looked that up): a Yamaha YM2612 and a TI SN76489 (probably a DSP). So it seems to me, that the Z80 was indeed included from the beginning foremost with SMS backwards compatibility in mind, but Sega changed the cartridge slot and omitted a card reader to be able to sell an (obviously planned from the start) power base adapter. Sneaky bastards.
@TheDeeplyCynical8 жыл бұрын
Frank Schneider The YM2612 was the FM synthesis chip, The SN76489 was a Programmable sound generator used for sound effects and Master system audio the Z80 is used to control both sound chips in Mega Drive games. whereas it can be used as the main cpu when running master system games EDIT The backwards compatability is more like the PS2 where it used the CPU from the original Playstation to control I/O functions but could be used for PS one games as the main CPU and not the Emotion Engine

The controls feel less responsive and some of the graphics even feel like a downgrade from the NES, they even censored the blood from Ninja Gaiden 2 which even managed to make it past the censors on the original NES. But the music was the worst sin of them all! Even the best remixes where inferior to the NES originals and whoever decided to take the 4-2 theme, the most metal song in the entire trilogy, and replace the instruments with a xylophone deserves to be banished into the world of Sonic 06.

Regarding Flicky: It seems so basic because it was originally a downloadable title for the Sega MegaNet service in Japan, so the memory footprint was pretty small. That's why it was released as a budget game here in North America. Fun Fact: Sonic 3D Blast (which takes place on Flicky Island) has almost the exact same play mechanics as the original Flicky. Five little birds follow you around which scatter if you get hit, and ultimately unlock the exit to each level. And clearly I wrote this note before getting to the Game Can segment :)

ok so i did some digging, wanted to know if the NES version is really that bad and found this "Athena gained some amount of popularity in the West due to it's NES home conversion. Some of the multiple routes have been removed, and the sloppy controls have actually been made worse. Some of the damage has been rebalanced, but you can still find yourself getting massacred within a span of a few seconds. The graphics have obviously taken a hit, although they still hold up respectably, but the same can't be said of the offensive musical soundtrack. Athena is consistently voted one of the worst (and hardest) NES games of all time. It didn't help that much of the appeal behind Athena was ruined by the Western artwork"

Regarding the pronunciation of "manga" here's how it breaks down. "Manga" consists of three sounds "ま" ("ma") "ん" ("n") and "が" ("ga"). You might recognize two of these characters from your Alex Kidd shirt! Anyway, for pronunciation, here's how they should go. "ma" as "Ma!" like how New Yorkers call their mothers. "n" like the "n" in "net" And "ga" like the end of "Sega". The trick is to remember that each of these sounds are a single syllable. Don't flow them together like we normally do in English (i.e don't turn "ma" and "n" into the single syllable word "man"), and keep the pronunciation the same as when they're by themselves! Ma-n-ga!

I always thought Nut's N Milk was pretty weak on the NES.
@GTXDash8 жыл бұрын
To be fair, that's a pretty old game, something like 1983. According to my research (CoughWikipediaCough) it was the very first 3rd party game released for the Famicom. Nuts & Milk falls in the Pac-man and Mappy category of games.
@DamianYerrick8 жыл бұрын
For an NROM-128 launch game, it isn't really too much weaker than Lode Runner or Donkey Kong. And if you like this sort of gameplay, try Zooming Secretary for NES.

I feel like a lot of the very early 3D polygonal games on 32-bit systems were exceptionally ugly, even despite them being "cutting edge" when they came out. I can't say they made the systems necessarily look "weak," because horribly blocky, barely-discernable models were the only kind of 3D graphics that ever existed. But coming fresh off the very best late-gen 16-bit 2D sprites, not to mention the 2D games being put out for the new consoles at the time, really made early 3D graphics look awful. It took me a long time before I was sold on the idea of 3D graphics as a valid or desirable concept. I wanted to play games that looked like Chrono Trigger or Symphony of the Night, not fuckin' Virtua Fighter. And visuals weren't even the end of the problems. A lot of early 3D games struggled with the very idea of how controls should work, or how cameras should function. Jumps were floaty and weird. Levels were either really small, or really empty. This is precisely the point where platformers became less about getting through a stage and defeating/avoiding enemies, and more about repeatedly combing every inch of the area for collectable stars/coins/bananas/jiggies. I will ALWAYS deeply resent that movement. Even the big companies like Squaresoft and Nintendo couldn't get through the awkward "3D puberty" phase without some embarassments. Super Mario 64 may still be really fun, and uh... I GUESS Ocarina of Time has some good dungeons if you're that desperate... but graphically, those games have always looked hideous from the day they were born.

Dont go too much with exagerrating though. I mean, usually when i hear that someone says "looks like ps2 game" and i check that game and, OMG, looks like ps2 could NOT handle it's models, textures, locations etc. It may still look UGLY and in same time obviously being higher technology wise than ps2 hardware could do >
@JackieFroSTALKER8 жыл бұрын
People really tend to forget what games on the PS2 actually looked like. Some of them did push the hardware pretty well but they still didn't look close to the average PS3 games as far as I can think of.

in particular the Nippon Ichi games (like the Neptunia series) have detailed characters but very poorly realizied ambients
@manaphylv1008 жыл бұрын
I think the problem with the Neptunia series is the graphics engine they chose isn't the best for the job, but they still look much better than, say, Ar Tonelico 3 and Cross Edge. Maybe they should've gone with cell-shading like the Atelier series, which has pretty nice graphics - especially in the later titles like Rorona Plus and Shallie - and none of the frame-rate issues that plagued mk2 (and Victory to some extent).

The bonus stage in Earthworm Jim 2 is a direct copy of the bonus stage in Flicky...
@HHog8 жыл бұрын
_(Ignore my previous deleted reply, I mistakently thought you meant the actual Flicky game rather then its bonus stage.)_ Mm, it is pretty similar, but on the EWJ2 bonus stage the idea is to bounce the puppies from one side of the stage to the other, not outright catch them.

That was what most critic reviewers agreed about the game too, and keep in mind most journalists were pro SNES too. Yeah, graphically, I think Mother 2/EarthBound was quite shit too, and the audio wasn't the best either (Not to mention the slowdown too... I guess it needed some blast processing :p). Final Fantasy 6 destroys Mother 2 in every regard, but it's still a fun game.
