Actually not THAT bad of a game, just a mediocre platformer, but I like it.
It has a somewhat original mechanic that's kinda obscure (discovered just a few years ago when I replayed it, didn't know it as a kid): when you jump once, press jump again just as you're landing to make a higher jump, like a spring effect.

Stimpy's Invention is a flawed game, but the devs did do a pretty good job with the Ren and Stimpy license. I'd put it in middle tier Genesis games.

My pick is Time Stalkers for the Sega Dreamcast. This game generally gets pretty mediocre reviews. But I kinda liked it as a Rouge-Like, and it has a pretty funky system where you can capture monsters and make them party members in each dungeon. The game is a cross over between LandStalker, LadyStalker, Shining Force and a couple other Climax Entertainment games.

One for the Dreamcast that was bad, but almost good in a campy way, is the Ring: Terrors Realm. I admittedly never beat it, but the awkward ride I took through the HotD tier voice acting and worse everything else was interesting and amusing enough.

>The snes can replicate the genesis soundchip nearly perfectly with ease
Of course it can mimic the genesis soundchip. It uses a fucking sampler sound chip, they are literally designed to mimic sounds from elsewhere. The problem is that a sampler is very ROM / RAM hungry for a 16-bit era device so in real-world situations you end up with very muffled replication and timbre imperfections.

>>5392960
Well if you devote the whole ROM / RAM to one tune with no special effects, or instruments for other tunes, then sure you have done on real cartridges. But that's not a real-world situation.

>And as for graphics, it's not even a contest. The snes can output 256 colors natively, hardware scaling and rotation, transparency, and a significantly larger master pallet
Well yes, but the Genesis has a higher resolution and a superior sprite engine. The graphic chip is also more efficient with VRAM and also has a little more independence from the CPU. Also the Genesis does support transparency, but not as flexibly as the SNES does.

>Did it really have a better CPU despite being released 2 years earlier?

The SNES CPU is basically a 65c816, which is a 16bit variant on the 6502, and has an 8bit bus, and 24bit address space and runs at a clock speed between 2.5 to 3.58 MHz and has a DMA found in the CPU. The CPU has direct access to the SNES's 128Kb of workram. It is also backwards compatible with the 6502. Nintendo chose this CPU because they originally wanted the SNES to be backwards compatible with the NES. But hardware differences in the GPU and audio chip made that impossible. 65c816 is also found in the Apple IIGS line of computers.

The Sega Genesis/ Mega Drive uses a Motorola 68000 16bit CPU, which has a 16bit bus and 32bit address spacing. It runs at a constant clock speed of 7.68MHz. The Genesis has a hardware DMA in the GPU and has access to the Genesis's/ MD's 64Kb of workram. The Motorola 68000 is one of the most commonly used 16bit CPU's from the 1980's to early 1990's. It is found in many 16bit arcade machines, including the NEO-GEO, Capcom CPS line of boards and Sega's own arcade boards. And it is used in many home computers like the Commodore Amiga, Atari ST, Apple Macintosh and so forth. Mostly running at clockrates of 12MHz or higher. The Sega CD add-on has a 68000 at 12MHz.

With well optimized code, the SNES CPU can be effective when used right, but the Genesis/ Mega Drive CPU is much easier to achieve better performance overall. The Genesis/ MD is a faster system overall. It is much better suited for arcade style games with lots of sprites on screen. Things that the SNES would struggle with. The SNES generally had the weakest CPU of the 16bit generation of consoles. The Neo-Geo uses a 68000 at 12MHz, the PCEngine/ TurboGrafx-16 uses a 8bit 6502 with a modified 7MHz turbo mode.

An exceedingly mediocre game. I'm not sure if there were better snowboarding games before/around its release, but there were definitely better games, even in its style, after (e.g. SSX series). Small cast, clunky controls, bad synergy between the item system and AI (where you're either always in the lead or never in the lead -- literally nothing in between), etc. Yet, it's such a damn comfy game: great aesthetics on certain courses, great soundtrack.

Mode 7 can't do hardware sprite scaling or rotation. It can only display one background layer in 3D. The SNES has no hardware for sprite scaling. Look at games like Mario Kart or F-Zero, the only think that is being rendered in 3D by the SNES is the playing field. The sprite scaling on those games are faked by using different sized sprites at different distances. The only SNES games that do have hardware sprite scaling are games equipped with a SuperFX chip in the cartridge. Yoshi's Island is a good example of how the SuperFX chip is used for sprite scaling and rotation.

You should watch out, bucko, because here, on the internet, there's no daddy or mommy to protect you, and the laws don't exist. I am the executor and the judge here in this lawless lands. No man ever dared to reply to me, without facing the consequences of being a inept user of 4chan, buddy. Maybe if you had paid more atention to the order of life, or read the actual rules of this image board, you wouldn't be in this shameful position of being absolutely blasted by me, in front of all these people who are expectator to how immense of a failure you are, but I won't feel sorry for you. Not after that mediocre replye, you dumb child.

Now listen to me, you better leave before I keep this destruction even further. You better cut your losses while you still have a future and go home to cry to your sister, because, if you remain, nothing will ever be able to resurrect you.

This thread turned into a weird console war.

Also, I want to say Drakken. It was kinda great, for trying to be a 3D RPG on a console, using mode 7, and faux scaling sprites. But it has janky combat, where the character AI is a bit brain dead. But I like the soundtrack and and the gameplay has a weird appeal.

Genesis always had the best sound. There's a reason why all the Japanese computers and arcades used FM synthesis. Literally video game music as a body of work from that era is primarily FM.

It had FM synth, similar to many contemporary arcade boards.

FM synth was a pain in the ass to work with with unless you were a coder. That's why Sega made GEMS, so the sound guys could use a normal composition workspace and work with MIDI files like they would on a DOS game. You could make good stuff with it (e.g. Comix Zone) but most were lazy and did the bare minimum with it.

The SNES used samples and it was much easier to work with, but it was bottlenecked to hell. The average SNES game sounds better than the average Genesis game, but the Genesis' best is better. Hate the TurboGrafx's sound though, it's tinny and weak.

I had access to both systems, and I can think of many times where a Genesis multiplatform game would be better than its SNES counterpart. There are also a lot of originals on the Genesis/ mega Drive that I can't find on the SNES. Though there are times when a multiplatforms games on the SNES that are just better than their Genesis counterparts as well. Plus lots of great stuff by Nintendo, Capcom, Konami, Squaresoft and so forth.

Maybe you're just a fan of RPG's and slow moving platformers? I don't know. But anything that resembles an arcade game usually suffers from mass slowdown or is slightly crippled by the lower screen resolution. Though, that's not all cases.

This thread is weird, it;s turned into a console war. Both those systems have their strengths and weaknesses and fairly different libraries that appeal to different tastes. Why not enjoy them both?

Reviews are meaningless though, bad reviews does not make for a flawed game, it often is more about a bad or biased reviewer. Likewise, for good reviews. Some games are so obviously shit that they get them right, but there are plenty of games in that 5.0 to 7.5 range that they have no idea what they're talking about, and would otherwise by a 9.5 if it were a major release with huge marketing.
