I've had arguments with people who couldn't understand how I could love the NES and SNES, but dislike the N64, and the point made at 7:50 really nails what I always tried to get at. The SNES was an evolutionary advancement of what Nintendo had been doing with the NES, and as such, there was a strong sense of continuity. The N64, by comparison, was not a continuation of what the SNES had done, but rather an attempt to reinvent the video game, and given that I really loved what Nintendo had made up to that point, that really left me cold.
@retrosoul87705 жыл бұрын
Agreed, not only did the N64's hardware bring game design in a completely different direction, but the foolish choice of using carts made them lose the greatest Japanese developers and their iconic 8-16 bit era franchises. The result was the PlayStation ended up becoming much more of a Snes 16-bit "successor" than the N64 ever could. With games like Mega Man X4, Symphony of the Night, Legend of Mana, FFantasy7+, R-Type Delta, Gradius Gaiden, Alundra (like LTTP), Street Fighter Alpha etc alongside new 2D IP's like Klonoa, Gex and Rayman, it made more sense for Snes owners to gravitate there instead. Though of course N64 has its unique quality and fun as well. Given the hardware it translated franchises like Mario, Star Fox, Zelda and F-Zero into polygonal 3D the best way it ever could, the system overall just doesn't resemble what came prior the way the PS and Saturn certainly do.
@retrosoul87704 жыл бұрын
@@NintendoPsycho I'm not sure why you're telling me that based off my comment because I never made any graphical claims...but neither console has outright "better" graphics. The N64 can render larger environments, and properly map/filter textures, while PS1 often suffers from flickering/warping, but there are many devs who overcame the limitations. The PS1 adds greater texture to its visuals, making them cleaner, sharper and more detailed, it just has better image quality in general. They both have really great looking games.

I dunno why, but it just feels sort of mind blowing that the SNES started development in the 80s. Granted it couldnt have been any later... Also early SNES titles (F-Zero, Actraiser, SCIV, Super R-Type, Pilotwings, etc.) all seem to have a more bassy/unique soundtrack style than later titles.
@JeremyParish8 жыл бұрын
Chalk it up the timing difference for 8-bit systems between the US and Japan. That three-year head start in Japan meant the NES was just warming up here while Nintendo was beginning to think to what was next (somewhat as a matter of necessity thanks to the PC Engine).
@Caztro728 жыл бұрын
I have to agree with your statement about early SNES games having a unique "bassy" soundtrack compared to later releases. Games like Super R-Type and Ultraman have a distinct 1st generation sound that games like Space Megaforce and Street Fighter 2 Turbo seemed to have "grown out" of. I assumed that developers has learned to master the Sony sound chip to a level where the music was a bit more robust and complex...losing that 1st gen sound.

I recently had the pleasure of 100%ing Super Mario World for the first time in a decade and it was such a fantastic experience. You really captured the core of the game well: exploration and completion. From the reveal of world 2 it is obvious that there are multiple paths to take and the game really encourages you to find them all. Especially when you can ease regular gameplay by unlocking the hidden block levels or an item cache. I also like the myriad of ways you can approach Bowser's Castle in the end, with a back door and a Star Road entrance. I do think they kinda went overboard in the Forest of Illusion area, where the multiple exits can circle you around to the level you just finished or just send you back to a previous stage. My final exit I needed to unlock was for a path I had already walked, but just made the invisible point B to A connection alongside the already unlocked point A to B road.

When the SNES came out, I always felt SMW a bit flat and drab compared with SMB3. Sure, it had that parallax scrolling, but platforms and other objects were very homogenous, offering little sense of variation or landmarks. Background tiles for decoration, orientation and atmosphere were almost overlooked - perhaps they thought the parallax was enough. To me it was actually less immersive. I was stunned to find myself walking down a straight hallway for most of Iggy's castle. Yes, you had those fence things you could climb on, but with the colour scheme evoking a sense of the scene being well-lit, it had none of the trepidation I felt came with the castles in earlier Mario games. And climbing on a fence was technically clever, but didn't really deliver on the sense of dangerous traps and platforming trepidation I was hoping for, and caused slow, clunky gameplay. Luckily this was remedied somewhat with the ghost houses, which were genuinely creepy thanks to murky colours and music that managed to be more than just "cartoon scary". Overall, SMW seemed to be trying to look more realistic, with its greys, browns, greens and blues. And many of the level layouts felt much more sensible and uneventful (though looking back on it from the 2000s onwards I got the impression it was definitely excelletly crafted, just very much downplayed and restrained). I also felt, right off the bat, that the cape and spinjump were overpowered, rendering many levels and obstacles mute once you mastered it (which wasn't that difficult). Coming from SMB3 with all of it's challenge and sense of overcoming and earling victory, this was almost disgusting to me as a gamer. One thing that made a big positive impression to me was the soundtrack in the cave levels. The music was so minimal as to be claustrophobic, and the tight echo/reverb effect added to that immensely.

Regarding the Super Famicom development, Chris Covell's site has a preview of a functioning prototype and several games appearing in December of 1988. I've also read an article which described Nintendo going to retailers and assuring them of an upgrade in 1987 to dissuade them from stocking the PC Engine. There is woefully little info on the Super Famicom compared to basically all of Nintendo's other consoles, which is disappointing but not surprising.

Super Mario World is easier than the first three NES titles in the *good* kind of way. Meaning the game is more fair. Let's be honest, NES games haven't aged very well, what people thought was challenging was actually just poor game design, not entirely of course. There are legitimate great NES games, but a lot of them will just throw a crap ton of enemies on screen and call it a day. By the SNES era of games, developers have mostly perfected their craft, and knew what they were doing.

"Master class of level design" Hmm... I wonder about that. Personally, I think the level design itself is the weakest point of the game. While I adore the game, they really could've put the mechanics to better use and made the terrain more aesthetically pleasing than it is. Also, as awesome as it is to have Yoshi stay with you in between levels, he also terribly limits the level design. There's things that simply wouldn't work with him. Some of them were shoved into Castles and Ghost Houses (that's why those don't let him in), while the rest of the game misses opportunities for cool areas just because they wouldn't work with Yoshi.
@Devimon40008 жыл бұрын
Yeah it doesn't feel like they balanced the levels around Mario + Yoshi at all, they designed the levels fro just Mario so outside of the secret worlds and some secret exits Yoshi alone is already starting to break the level design, much less Cape Mario + Yoshi. Well SMW is still a brilliant game by almost any standard, compared to most 2d Marios it's level design is weaker then average. Levels like Butter Bridge 2 spam a bunch of the exact same enemy rather then selecting a few different ones to crate lots of different kids movement and complexity to deal with. Koopa shells in tight spaces lose all meaning because of the spin jump and the coins are rare so can't provide as much motive to do extra platforming and take on optional risks. They try and replace them with Dragon coins but those aren't even in every level.

I did however like it a lot more than the NES mario games. On another note, I had zero interest in the the genesis. In fact it was the speed of Sonic and the kinds of fast paced games it touted that turned me off. Being a major RPG and action RPG fan, the genesis offered nothing of value to me. Maybe if someone had introduced me to Phantasy Star or the Shining games it might have been a different story, but at the time I had zero interest in the system.
