[magatsu1]

my SNES collection:

Cybernator
Probotector
Cannon Fodder
F-Zero
Castlevania (remember that ?)
(original) Street Fighter 2
Desert Fighter (similar to D. Strike)
Zelda
Aleste
Axley
Syndicate
Mario World
Mario Kart
Batman returns (the best Beat 'em Up to get a proper releas in blighty)
I had Metroid but gave it to a mate 'cos I dont like it.

I think the average price I paid for each is about £10.
I'm after Shadowrunner and Desert Strike at the mo.

There's Cannon Fodder on the SNES?

Man, I spent months on that game. Accursed lack of save feature.

[magatsu1]

Heh Heh. Doesn't have the Theme song but I couldn't afford a PC at the time.

I borrowed Starwing off a mate recently and didn't like it, I remember spending ages on it though originally. I also remember it cost like £60 new. Product of it's time and all that..

I have the gameboy colour one lying around somewhere.... still looks hist-hot - has the theme song, a pre-rendered intro and even a 3d options screen.  Pretty astonishing for the hardware.

You mean as in Super Mario World? As in the one set on Dinosaur Island, with Yoshi the cape feather and ****?

[color=66ff00]Yep yep, as I said I didn't even know it existed until I saw this:

Kamakaze: I'm currently talking to a guy about this, did I already show you the link for the Multi console copier? (http://chn.roarvgm.com/mcc/mcc.html)
The guy I'm talking to is working on a more manageable system but he's still working the tweaks out. Anyhow, the memory on the MCC is fairly commonplace RAM, it would be reasonably easy to replace and should have a long lifetime.

[diamondgeezer]

Wow. Some sort of special edition. I presume that cart came in a console bundle?

In any case, go buy a Super Scope

[Martinus]

[color=66ff00]No idea, as for a superscope; the only thing that is good for is slapping someone else who took your pad.

*looks at the MCC hooked up to a SNES*

......my snes doesn't look like that...

...Is that the japan SNES console?

This is what mine looks like:

...going through google I've found about 3 or 4 different SNES console types! That's insane!

My SNES games:
Zelda: Link to the past
Super Mario World
Super Return of the Jedi (semi-sorta cool)
Desert Strike
Stanley Cup (Ya! Hockey!!!)
StarFox

Pfft, SNES stomped Genesis in every way, shape, and form.  Sonic 2 was good, but there's a long list of SNES games that topped that one.

*Points to the sales figures in the US particularly*

The Genesis outsold the SNES in the US and to a lesser extent in the UK. Japan doesn't really count as most people who had one tended to have the other.

I'm not denying that the SNES was a good machine, as it brought Starfox into the world, I just prefer the Mega Drive (to use the proper name), if only for the fact that it has Sonic 2, possibly the greatest classical platformer of all time!

That's a picture of what they called the prototype in France, if I remember correctly
In France, we have the version you see on that copier thing page.

Yep, that's the US model.  The UK one was a nicer more rounded shape - i think the same as the Japanese oner.  IIRC the joypad buttons were also red, green, yellow and blue.

[Setekh]

That's right. I've got a Japanese model, it's not as good for bashing people up with.

[Kamikaze]

There're 3 types of SNES that I know about.
There's the boxy, US version.
The rounded, non-US version.
And the rounded, US version.

Maeg: Sweet, inform us when you get more info please

[adwight]

Ahh the good 'ol days with the Super Nintendo.  Donkey Kong is still a classic .

[StratComm]

You know, I always wondered what that random colored thing was that appeared on most of the cartridges, but now I see.  That little collor predecessor to the MSN butterfly isn't on the US consoles, nor was it ever associated with the system over here.

[magatsu1]

I just got Desert Strike on ebay for 99p.

Hurray for me!

[Martinus]

[color=66ff00]Kick arse magatsu1, great game.
Got myself a multitap and I'm now on the prowl for a copy of bomberman 1 which seems to be a bit of a rarity. Here's hoping.

On a slightly different topic: SF2 turbo came today, I couldn't execute a fireball for 30 mins which was a bit of a downer considering how much time I spent playing it as a kid. Got it nailed now though.
Next on the list is dragon punch training. Must be in fighting form (pun intended) when I get the mates around for a bit of a tournament.

BTW anyone else of the opinion that the american SNES is a bit of a monster compared to the rest of the world's SNES's, which are frankly game vixens.

[aldo_14]

Yes, the US SNES was / is a mess.

[magatsu1]

I'm after Bomberman myself. This thread has got me buying games again.

I bet SF felt really slow as well eh Meag. ?
I used to switch between the original and Alpha2 and couldn't believe the difference.
