Pfft. Everyone clings to the N64 for three reasons, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark and Mario Kart 64. The list of quality SNES titles is at least ten times as long! Therefore SNES > N64

Of course the ultimate solution is to own both!

How about getting the floppy drive for it, so you can play all games, that and I havent seen Rock n Roll Racing mentioned anywhere(or have i missed it???)


For those who missed out on this gem, see video below:-

I never thought the N64 was that good a console at the time. There were loads of not so good games. Just as the PS1 was releasing loads of really good games with an (at the time) obscene amount of storage (CD) the N64 was limited by a cartridge. There were a few driving games with very little scenery etc. The SNES is a classic. I loved mine.

How is the Wii for downloading and playing older nintendo games? are they expensive?

Some of my best gaming memories are from my SNES games! Secret of Mana and Final fantasy 3 are just pure awesome-sauce!

I'd recommened Unirally if you can track that down.

A game featuring Unicycles, was seriously fast...!

A true classic that most people missed. It probably has aged very well given that it was never about graphics and all about skill!

Can also add Tetris Attack and Super Probotecter(Someone said contra, but I think that was the USA version?)

 

[neil3k]

get zelda link to the past you n00b!

 

[linktoinsanity]

Nice find. Old school consoles for the win

You should have got a Megadrive though!

 

[MikeHunt79]

buy Battletoads

was it ever on the SNES?

 

[breeza]

Aaarrr I just loved Super Metroid. Was by far my favourite game on the SNES if a little frustrating in places. Soundtrack is awesome.

 

[cm1179]

super castlevania is a must have
the snes was probably the best console ever

 

[.Lethal]

was it ever on the SNES?

Nope.

But sequals were,

Battletoads & Double Dragon
Battletoads in Battlemaniacs

 

[WatchTower]

Anyone play Brain Lord? It was a cool action rpg.

 

[Guest2]

Im now 18% through Donkey Kong Country and its getting really hard. To the part when the rats in the big stone wheels run after you so you have to run through the level to avoid them

edit - ive also managed to beat the computer playing Ryu in hardest mode on street fighter 2 turbo. Took ages but managed it with chun li

 

[Smit]

Battletoads in Battlemaniacs

Awesome game in 2player mode.. As long as you turned off the ability to hit each other or it always descended in to a brawl

 

[Kagemusha]

Has anyone metioned Shadowrun......

 

[Dark_Angel]

MK2 was awesome. That is all.

 

[Guest2]

MK2 was awesome. That is all.

Reptile is impossible to beat on hardest mode. I will win soon...

If you think that is hard, you wait till you get to some of the later ice levels etc
