Forgotten and Weird Super Nintendo Games! (SNES)

Bad Sequels are all over the place. Movies, Video Games, Music even? A terrible or bad game coming in the form of a followup is rare but it's been happening since the old Nintendo days to now with the PS5. Am I still mad about FF13? Not so much, but I can recognize stinky when I see it.

What's some forgotten or obscure Super Nintendo titles you remember? Or uh, you know spent hours digging through weird roms for? I didn't talk about it here cause this thing went on for 40 minutes but Secret of Evermore HAS to be the weirdest Squaresoft title from this era. Lemme know what you got!

As a child of the '90s, three ninjas and three ninjas kick back were peak rental movies

Man Austin just constantly uploads great quality videos over 30 min long. Truly an awesome content creator.

3 Ninjas was created by a Korean director who along with his actress wife were kidnapped by North Korea, because the leader of North Korea wanted to build his own movie studio to spread his ideology. They had to live there for years until they finally escaped. Once they got back, they found they were eyed with suspicion by people who thought they defected to North Korea rather than being kidnapped. As a result of this, they ended up moving to the US to get away from the hatred and he had to try to rebuild his career from scratch in a second language. So, I think it's a deecent attempt, given the circumstances.

I always felt that games such as Bart’s Nightmare are in this specific pile games that I like to call “Its jank but it has this strange nostalgic charm to it” since nearly everyone played it at one point.

Fun fact about Yoshi's Safari: The first time Princess Toadstool was referred to as "Peach" in NA.

[PrinceMallow]

"Eek! the Cat" is an obscure SNES release I'll never forget. It's based on the now forgotten Saturday morning cartoon of the same name. You play as the titular Eek and your mission is to protect your NPC companion from dying as they mindlessly walk into danger. It's not very good and it's brutally difficult but the soundtrack slaps. Turns out it was just a reskinned version of a game called Sleepwalker that was released on the Commodore Amiga in which you played as a dog protecting their owner who was sleepwalking.

No one ever talks about Tales of Phantasia for the Snes. It's by far the best most overlooked game on the console. :(

[inkwolf]

35:14 I agree that a Goemon Collection should be next on Konami's "to-do" list.

[spectrumbots]

Yoshi's Safari! I just played that earlier this year! Fun Fact: this game is the first time Peach was called Princess Peach in the West rather than being called Princess Toadstool.

[Kevinsyel]

Fun fact about SkyBlazer... it's built off the same Engine that they used for Hook.

[dmario-leebudhi]

Nice to see Austin predicted the Marvel Capcom collection of games literally 5 days before the direct 😂

[reidmckim]

A game called "out to lunch" where you are a chef who has to chase down his sentient ingredients after they escape

[TheLeetCasualGamer]

Square: Hey, we're remaking Actraiser!
Me: cool, you gonna remake your other Action Enix RPGs
Square: ... We had others?

[dadsfreetimeclassicgaming]

15:58 "Drive off into the sunset???" What the hell happened to Zacks FACE LMAO!!! The Sambo'd the shit outta him.

[orionsorbit]

5 days later literally Capcom announced Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Steam.

[spyrotikus]

That power rangers scene at 14:50 when the bad guy said teenagers awoke some deep nostalgia within me I had forgotten I had.

[lymb]

Run Saber is one of my favorite SNES games that nobody really talks about. It's short, but it's very dynamic and lots of fun with 2 players!

[KremBotop]

Speaking of SNES deep cuts, I recall that the majority of Sailor Moon games have been released on the Super Famicom and are almost all Japan only (though some fan translations were made since). Austin even talked about the RPG a while ago. SM games is a topic worthy of its own video imo.

Man, you mention ninjas, licensed games AND Capcom and but Maui Mallard in Cold Shadow? That game was legit awesome and the SNES version was the best one.
