How Tough are SNES and Genesis Games?

[@torontofenderjunkie]

That "survive a date with Bill Cosby" line is a LOT funnier now...

[@BrakeMaster7]

OR a LOT less funny

[@torontofenderjunkie]

***** Yeah I think you nailed it.

[@AlphaXY13]

Can these cartridges survive a date with Bill Cosby? ._. Oh wait, this was 2011.

[@raccoon681]

+AlphaLineGaming i guess so but you might have to clean them after.

[@slickbrickthunder7983]

+AlphaLineGaming haha I caught this too. She had some crazy foresight there.

[@darklinggolem]

•_•. .-.

[@raccoon681]

you loved it an you know it zombie :P

[@b0bb0b70]

no

[@jud6ment]

When I clicked on this video I was expecting how difficult the games were. lol

[@jamesage100]

Same, I find this kinda interesting, but disappointing...

[@ryandavison7182]

B... But the snes cart was IN the fire... The GEN cart was only on the side of the flames... We salute you, snes cart. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@Nicoder6884]

I thought this was about the difficulty to PLAY them!

[@Vojingamer]

Same lol

[@xapoc666x]

Ur snes lore knowledge is awesome! i cant place the tune from the "frozen" sequence.

[@deathofasalestactic]

i would re-do the flame test

[@littleworldinsideme]

Ikr the SNES was in the most flames!

[@littleworldinsideme]

I agree

[@littleworldinsideme]

Hi

[@littleworldinsideme]

bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon bacon

[@littleworldinsideme]

stop spamming ill tell mom!

[@retro2409]

I can’t believe i found this video after so many years, I would always look up “ sega Genesis vs snes cartridge” but never no luck, hope you’re doing alright these days!

[@gamerofthesith5275]

you are quickly becoming my favorite KZbin channel..

[@Overgreen]

Her last video was uploaded 2 years ago...

[@gamerofthesith5275]

yeah i know, but it's new to me...

[@caiusmadison2996]

Callan Fox she died? that's terrible...

[@caiusmadison2996]

actually I just did some research and she posted on her Facebook that she has had a child and cannot do the videos anymore at least for a bit. Says she wants to do voice acting too, which I could see her pulling off. Reminds me of so many animated girl's voices from 90's cartoons.

[@Luigi1000]

Ill be honest here, I believe we all demand a redo on the flame test with regards to the fact that they were not subjected to same flame exposure. The Genesis game has its board fried but it was spared any heat damage to anything vital (e.g.: chips/solder). On the other hand the SNES game was right in the middle of the flame and got both heat damage to both of the mentioned parts. So a better test condition would be exposure to a bunson burner in the middle of the board or possibly on a gas stove depending on available resources. Now that the serious part is over lets get to fun facts on why both of these should have failed: 1) The average campfire is around 900 to 1200 degrees Celsius. 2) The average consumer grade electrical logic chip temperature tolerance range is from -55 to 125 degrees Celsius. 3) The average melting point for general purpose electrical soldier is 360 to 370 degrees Celsius. With those 3 points and with personal experience, I can firmly say that as a college graduate in electrical engineering that there is NO WAY IN HELL ANYTHING ELECTRICAL WOULD SURIVIVE DIRECT CONTACT LIKE THAT WITH THOSE CONDITIONS. The Genesis game just got lucky that the fire burnt through the empty space in the cart and you pulled it out in time that it did not cause any damage or have the time to have direct contact with the hottest part of the fire.

[@lectro7584]

uh they were exposed to the same amount of fire

[@waycic]

man got so mad over a video goddamn

[@iandrsaurri625]

​@@lectro7584 Watch it again. She even admitted that the SNES got more of the fire

[@artdragons]

Why not done a toaster test instead of fire. but, why does that matter when you boiled the thing.

[@aiaikirbyandkainpaneldepon3838]

wow how did you do that! upload more how tough are video games i love you rinary

[@half-dead340]

Yeah like a sega genesis game whould survive that! You threw the snes one right in the fire! How the hell is that fair?

[@FloppyDiskMaster]

I remember watching this video when it was new on the old family Compaq. I can't believe it has been that long!

[@SwiftyStardust]

"Can these cartridges survive a big date with Bill Cosby?" Um... awkward...

[@WyreWizard]

Wow, Ms. Rinry. You must have a lot of time on your hands. I would love to see you do these tests with the consoles, LOL!!!

[@TheShangryLlamas]

Do N64 vs Playstation! Oh wait.

[@PatWizard]

LOL!!!!

[@tryzmsotryll]

+TheShangryLlamas n64 vs Saturn (the cartridges for the Saturn, there was both)

[@halo3odst]

Umm the sega saturn cartridge port was used for memory, ram upgrades, and online modems, no games, at least none common if they did exist.

[@tryzmsotryll]

Oops halo3odst

[@SpongeMagic]

TheShangryLlamas Game Boy vs Game Gear

[@CrookedcartridgeOfficial]

These videos are always interesting! Keep it up, Rinry!

[@karolkowalski3842]

"If a nerd and a cupcake had a baby..." ♫

[@TekDristan]

I keep thinking I will wake up when I watch your videos. It is nice to know other people like 2nd gen systems as much as I do : )

[@DontrelleRoosevelt]

I think you've got a cute voice, so screw all the haters!

[@csebastian3]

The quality of your videos continues to be outstanding, even after all these years. I hope you're doing well, Rinry.

[@ssjichigo666]

you should've made 2 separate campfires and placed the carts evenly on the center of the 2 separate campfires, then you would have an equal estimate, the genesis cart wasn't even getting the flames, and the snes was getting all of the fire

[@sjjaquez29]

Fuck you

[@Spaztron64]

***** Lol i was just kidding i dont know about Sandra

[@lectro7584]

KillerpatrikNC/Spaztron64 i dont think he was talking to you

[@Spaztron64]

Miles Prower Oops

[@Nukikero1337]

after 2 years i finally find rinrygamegame´s channel. did search it so often and now found it randomly Oo.

[@azzamandreas862]

i thought this video was referring to difficulty (tough)

[@MrGencyExit64]

Indeed, I thought that too when I saw the NES version of this video... it should be "durability" or "strength".

[@poppunkrockbasscover6747]

Me too fella:D

[@LeonGun8]

MrGencyExit64 She probably chose that on purpose.

[@OrangeJarProductions]

Death Egg zone FTW!

[@Mitzi-chan224]

I miss you...

[@allears2151]

it is official, SEGA truly does what nintendon't

[@paradox7689]

Yes SEGA Does Discontinue Their Consoles

[@esands36]

I like that you added the Kefka music to the "Marshmallo Test", nice touch

[@mrbaws1576]

I bet you ate some of the jello from test 3! ;}

[@thedragonforce10]

I love the videos she puts up! They're amazing!

[@onoe6007]

I like your Voice :3

[@pouncingpantherpucks2779]

I hope Rinry comes back one day

[@GlobalWarmingSkeptic]

Physical tests aren't really ever going to produce any interesting results because the manufacturing of the PC boards is the same, maybe with minor differences in the ROM. A more interesting test for games like this would be to test it against different kinds of hacking mechanisms such as hacking the RAM or the ROM, but that's kinda hard to do with cartridges I suppose.

[@LordBordNoob]

what is the song at 8:06 ? (i know, it is from either chronno trigger or final fantasy III, aka 6, but i'm too lazy to find it)

[@Xx1SailorScoutxX]

Rinry hates sports games. LOL!!

[@SuperDanielstar64]

***** I agree as every time I get one of them I try to play as little as possible somtimes none at all. They end up either with my friends or at a garage sale!

[@AmandaWspoon]

***** I did love Bad News Baseball (NES) but that good be because I got to see my dad and my brother play throughout childhood and enjoyed it myself.

[@shunganeva9115]

IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR EEVVVVEERRR

[@TheSpyt67]

well genesis won because it does what nintendont and has blast processing.....

[@MrMikCraft]

TheSpyt67 indeed

[@RaineWillowTheWonderer]

TheSpyt67 bull shit, the SNES cartridge was IN THE FIRE while the Genesis was on the side and the SNES has better sound, games, characters that aren't useless and Nintendo still kicks Sega's puny wimpy ass to this day!

[@RaineWillowTheWonderer]

TheSpyt67 plus the Genesis was on life support with all those stupid addons while the SNES was backwards compatible with the gameboy

[@RaineWillowTheWonderer]

TheSpyt67 plus the fact that SNES had better 3d with the Super FX chip and better orchestral music than the stupid genesis with it's stupid metal sounding music..

[@elmastaa]

numberjack1980 It's not the 90's anymore, grow up.

[@thenendo]

It makes sense that they would survive boiling (other than the plastic). The circuit boards experienced much high temperatures when being soldered together in the factory.

[@SaoirseSecrets]

Dude, I LOVE your videos! Subscribed.

[@ZironOfTime]

for the achivement of roasting it like a marshmallow it should have been "toasty!"

[@thesvc2006]

your videos are great, informative, and original. i think ill sub!

[@theman5614]

Cartridges "wo ho look we got a major fan who bought many copies of us" Next day Cartridge "what did we do to deserve this, we seeing each one being killed off" I did think this was going to be a gameplay difficulty test and thought Shinobi had to be here for testing then went o now this is interesting. These cartridges i never thought would survive all of this, and thought the water would straight up malfunction it. Surprised they worked after all of it.

[@vhsorion]

i love your hair, and your voice.

[@rebane2001]

3:15 what music is this?

[@rebane2001]

If anybody finds out please let me know

[@VinylicPumaGaming]

This is a great video

[@Sinn0100]

Sega was the absolute best in the 1990's. Sega did what Nintendon't. Sega were the true innovators of the 16-bit wars. Joe Montana Sports Talk Football is actually a bit rare and is special...not cool man. The other sports games can burn but not Sports Talk.

[@Dr0dd]

I wonder what results you would get with a Famicom/PAL cartridge.

[@99daysfan99]

2:03 Yay earthbound music!

[@SdudyoyO]

GBA games are very strong, My brother had gba game and it had been left in his pocket and put through the washer and dryer multiple times, but one year he had put it in a big bucket (For whatever reason he was Six) and it rained filling the bucket up, He forgot about it and we lived in Idaho so during the winter it froze, at the bottom of the frozen bucket was a poor leaf green cartridge, and the bucket was too heavy to pick up so it stayed there all winter. it still works ten years later.

[@beatrix1120]

The flame test seems to have started a few flame wars.

[@SuperNintendoZach]

You guys do such neat videos

[@brettjacquard219]

Raspberry Red-SNES Berry Blue-Genesis. Grape Purple should be for NES

"A game of curling with them" so canadian

[@SuperAgenteZ]

I love your videos! What is the game at 8:17 with the green rabbit?? I remember that character as a kid, but I want to know what game it is.

[@ecnerwalgnay]

huge fan of you and your channel!

[@Bloxed]

You were too harsh with the fire on the SNES.

[@steam-powereddolphin5449]

It sounds like I was looking for "Nintendo Hard" and got "Tonka Tough"!

1990's: Nintendo vs. Sega Now: Sony vs. Microsoft Me: :🎶 Why can't we be friends?🎶

[@laharl2k]

-9001, floppys and more often 3 1/4 ones ussually die on their own after some years of use, either the drive's head breaks or the disk starts demagnetizing because of the friction against the reading head

[@rhysalexander182]

Really well made video, good on you!

[@UserofM1necr4ft]

Ok, your heartless plush is awesome. Also, why is there a ps3 achivement effect on a competition between seta and Nintendo?

[@MrNoRomance]

Rinry channel is talking about games, not let people write nonsense or off-topic rubbish on, respect this little girl everyone.

[@inactiveuser1981]

You really make me wanna get a classic console again!

[@commiekiller-jv6eb]

I was screaming internally for you not to destroy any carts but then I realized you were testing sport games. Good job.

[@medleysa]

Me in 2011: why would I ever need this information? Me in 2020, five kids later: this is the most valuable information on the Internet.

[@fforgivensinz6114]

yea I have and I love them super Mario for the SNES I could play that for hours on end but my point is that for anything else I would choose a newer system I appreciate it though because everyone else on here seems to want to get all aggressive about this

[@colinlunsford6728]

i love your videos there entertaning and short also does the genises hook up actuly work with the retro duo

[@JLConawayII]

You forgot some tests. The log chipper test, the orbital reentry test, the active volcano test. I'm pretty sure these would have shown the superiority of the SNES cartridge.

[@ghw1985]

I love your videos and your voice you are the best!

[@JorgeElimKreible]

Rinry, you are the cuteness incarnate!!!

[@cescfiberglass9642]

what a good research....with your talent..now you can apply a job either in nintendo or sega...

[@deneb_tm]

You just earned a new subscriber ;-).

[@iProgramInCpp]

Sega does what also Nintendid.

[@Heattokun]

I reccomend redoing the Genesis and SNES fire test with similar placements(like,measure them out), so its a bit more fair. But thats just me.

[@DragonKazooie89]

Same with my GBA SP. Fortunately, I just mainly use it for Pokemon transfer between Colosseum/XD and my GBA Pokemon games.

[@ExtraCheese94]

Would be cool to see these tests done on European/Japanese SNES/Super Famicom games. The different cartridges may hold up differently.

[@HelloQro]

well, not to sound like a fanboy, but the marshmellow test was byas, as they did not sustanin the same amount of heat, nor where thye expoused to heat on the same areas, due to the cartrige position on the, ermm, ¿bonfire? (sorry really dont know what word to use), so i would like a re test :P. Also, knwo that i know that they can endure anything, i wont worry about cleaning them everyday and just let them lay all over the place, i may even build a cofee tabel out of them.

[@JoeFpoc]

the good ol days, i too remember just throwing away the box and have all the nes, snes, and sega games just scattered along the floor or piled up on the table. they never went bad. so far i have scratched and cracked two xbox 360 games, no way in heck would that have happend to these

[@XmdogmX]

7:48 hahahahaha ohhh man I nearly cried. love the box kick down the stairs.... but yeah i still love and adore all my old cartridge games

[@OmoiSenpai]

If it was in a Fixed test, the Sega Cartridge would of melted and stopped working too.

[@Evan2]

Wow, that computer with bill cosby was the TI/99 4A, the computer my dad grew up with!

[@TheNonshalanto]

i'm talking about voice acting and digitized voice in the games themselves. that line was not in a sega game as far as i remember

[@timm_3r]

How appropriate is that Cosby joke now? lol

[@yoshilandcat]

Is the nes cartridge a creature

[@jackhammer9261]

What ever happened to you? :'(

[@Bkoded]

I must add BEST KZbinR PICTURE EVER

[@SilentStrikers]

But, if the cartridges were swapped, so would have the results. The SNES cart was clearly put in the middle of the flame (with a few extra seconds added before Sega was tossed in) while the Sega cart was to the side with only a minimal flame against it. This one should be retested with similar placements to the flames. Outcomes would then be identical.

[@infamousking5568]

Other than the title probably needing to be renamed to avoid confusion, I did enjoy this video.

[@rabryan]

You're SO CUTE! I liked the curling bit. That was funny. Did you actually do a laundry test like you showed towards the beginning of the video? I wonder if detergent would do any damage. They're indestructible! I somewhat disagree with the outcome of this video. Yes, technically the Genesis did win, but the Super cartridge was in a harsher spot on the fire, & the Genesis cartridge had a worse time being boiled. Based on those variations, I'd say they tied.

[@Centella85]

Anha, that re-run of the footage on the fire says it all. The Genesis cartridge was barely near the flames!!!! Not fair.

[@luisoncpp]

It would be cool to make these tests to the current generation console games. Maybe you are thinking "it's impossible for that games to survive, most of my backup copies in DVD don't longer work and some scratches make the game loose some information". But the truth is that DVD-ROM and DVD-R disks are very different, DVD ROM it's much more tought, also, the scratches only affect to a plastic cover of the disk: scratches don't erase data, only made harder for the console to read that data, and also, scratches can be fixed. So, maybe the new generation disk are not too fragile.

[@tf2whackyengineer]

What discs are you playing on? I've gotten some pretty beat PC games to work again. One of the worst I had just took a little longer to install.

[@WazingaWhiz]

Your awesome rinry. The last gamestore is the best game store out there!

[@vandy_vt]

i think next should be - whos toughter? xbox 360 vs wii

[@frendiom]

The Sega CD had over 2 games it had around 12 i think plus some with 32X + it worked fine to play but you could get weird effects sometimes like malfunction.

[@TrueZero2]

Here's a test that can be quite uniform, how would the NES, SNES and Genesis cartridges fare when put in an oven for a couple of minutes?

[@side2sideful]

I never noted your channel. You may have a small channel compared to others, but I subbed anyway. Cheers :D

[@demonology2629]

Wow durable cartridges 🕹🤩🕹
