  • 16-Bit Goodness of the Early 90s

    Apr 28 '01
    Pros: Tons of Games, Great System!
    Cons: Has Been Dead For a Long Time!

    Summary: THE SUPER NINTENDO Nintendo was dominating the market, it had defeated all competition with its original Nintendo, well all that changed when Sega released their new system the "Genesis". The Genesis boasted better graphics, better sound, and ... read more

  • Possibly the greatest system of all time

    Mar 13 '04
    Pros: Classic after classic, cheap, no accessories needed, nice design (for the most part)
    Cons: stupid eject button, graphics not up to todays, some buttons you never use

    Summary: Intro The Super Nintendo Entertainment System is arguably the greatest game system of all time. Yep, that's right, better than the Xbox, better than the PS2, and better than the Gamecube. Why? Because three times as many classics were introduced on ... read more

  • Super Nintendo- The Best of Both Worlds

    May 29 '03
    Pros: Impressive graphics, stereo sound, good gameplay, long-lasting hardware.
    Cons: Needed to expand more upon the mario series.

    Summary: Super Nintendo is, in my opinion, the best syetem ever available. I say it is the best of both worlds because it still has the same style games as the old NES games, yet with dramatically improved graphics and sound. I never really caught onto modern ... read more

  • the one system I REALLY liked

    Apr 20 '03
    Pros: great games, good gameplay, fun, entertaining
    Cons: the cartriges got dirty

    Summary: Sure, I was only about six or so but the legacy lives on within my head. We owned snes and genisis. The genisis wasn't played much because my brothers and my hands couldn't hold the bulky controller well if you needed all 6 buttons. My favorite games ... read more

  • Fun and joy guaranteed!.

    Jan 17 '03
    Pros: Graphics, sound, games, everything!.
    Cons: I can't think of one.

    Summary: The SNES (a.k.a. Super Nintendo, at least in my country) was the last system I owned during my gamer life (I am 19 now, and haven’t bought a video-game system in a very, very long time) and was truly one of the best systems I have ever ... read more

  • The Super Nintendo Entertainment System: The Greatest Video Game Console in Existence

    Jan 01 '03
    Pros: A vast library of excellent games, and a great controller.
    Cons: No games are released for this system anymore, and the multiplayer aspect is lacking.

    Summary: As I previously mentioned in my review of the NES, Nintendo had an unfair advantage with its 8-bit monopoly. However, even though the 16-bit SEGA Genesis was beginning to become the most popular console because of its many third party-published games and ... read more

  • obvious cliche"it's super"

    Pros: a great system
    Cons: none in less your not a nintendo fan

    Summary: Going through a bunch of old reviews I decided to go through a bunch of old reviews, and redo my Super Nintendo review. Why not it's a perfect time with the classic game system reviews up I might has well rewrite one of my classic console reviews. ... read more

  • Super Nintendo--Lotta Bang For Your Buck

    Aug 01 '02
    Pros: Many Games, Great Playability, Controller.
    Cons: Graphics (in some instances), system Power.

    Summary: In the late 80s the Japanese company Nintendo produced a home entertainment system that revolutionized video games forever. In the early 90s Nintendo struck again by bringing us the Super Nintendo. An interesting system that provides twice the graphics ... read more

  • Super NES is one of the best systems made

    Jun 16 '02
    Pros: Great Classic Games, Low Priced Games and Accesories
    Cons: Not Great Graphics, High Price for Older System

    Summary: The Super NES or SNES was one of the first systems I ever purchased. At that point in time it was the best system out there. IT even towered over the SEGA Genesis that was released after the system. The titles for this system were amazing for that ... read more

  • The Limited Lifespan of SNES Classics...

    Jan 11 '02
    Pros: Great games and excellent hardware, but...
    Cons: That necessary save-feature doesn't last.

    Summary: When it was first released, the Super Nintendo could hardly hold a candle to the popularity of the Sega Genesis, the system that pretty much won the 16-bit console wars. It was even a tad slow getting out the big games. Over time though, the Super ... read more

  • Nintendo in their Prime

    Jan 05 '02
    Pros: haven for quality licensed titles, impressive RPG roster
    Cons: not too many good shooters or games with 'speed'

    Summary: Super NES was the perfect system when I picked it up in early '92. I was never a stout supporter of Nintendo's 8-bit 'Family Computer', but the present state of the new platform and immense potential for the future sold me. I went on to collect over 50 ... read more

  • Super NES

    Dec 31 '01
    Pros: Huge game library with great RPGs. Better reliability than "old" NES.
    Cons: Lackluster sports titles. Console turns a strange yellow after time.

    Summary: In 1990 Nintendo made a release that changed the face of gaming. They released Super Famicom in Japan. Nintendo's first 16 bit system. Super Famicom was aimed directly at Sega's already two year old 16 bit Genesis. In August of 1991 Super Famicom was ... read more

  • Move over Gamecube, Xbox, PS2 - I got myself an SNES!

    Dec 14 '01
    Pros: Very durable; cheap nowadays; TONS of high-quality games in all genres!
    Cons: They're no longer making new games for it, of course.

    Summary: Well, theres a new console war going on - unlike the one that began in the early nineties between Sega and Nintendo, or the one in the mid-nineties between Nintendo and Sony, this one actually has 3 competitors - Nintendo with it's new ultra-compact ... read more

  • Remember those 16-bit console wars?

    Dec 10 '01
    Pros: Great lineup of games; available for cheap these days
    Cons: Limited selection of sports titles

    Summary: The absolute battle that waged between Sega and Nintendo in the first half of the 1990s was something to behold. Indeed, the Super Nintendo and the Sega Genesis offered two-dimensional gaming at its height, and people not too impressed with the ... read more

  • Grew on me like molasses.

    Nov 07 '01
    Pros: Durable, affordable, huge game library. Easy to convert to play imports.
    Cons: Old, dated, kids might hate it.

    Summary: When I first saw this unit, I was a teenager working at Toys R Us. "Super Nintendo..." I thought, "Why is it so super? It's just hype." If I remember correctly, the starting price for a base unit with no Super Mario Land was about $110.00. ... read more
