How Is Your SNES Gaming Going?

Damn I screwed up my own joke.

What do you guys think of the SNES Disney platformers? Aladdin, Jungle Book, Pinocchio, Hook, Mickey Mania, The Magical Quest, and The Great Circus Mystery? And what do you think of them when compared to the Looney Tunes games like Porky's Haunted Holiday, Rabbit Rampage, Los Gatos Bandidos, and The Marvin Missions?

Hook is not Disney, but what great game. It's one of my favorites for the SNES.

Yeah, you're right. I forget that since I always think of Disney when I think Peter Pan. I like what little I've played of it though and need to spend some real time with it.

The only thing that sucks about it is that you have to complete the game in one play through. IMO, by the time the SNES came around there should be no game like this. If they didn't wanna use SRAM, there should have been a password for stage select.

For Hook, I don't mind so much because I've played the game so many times I can just beat it in one sitting no problem. But it's annoying for a game I've haven't beaten yet, like Plok.

Stuff about Taz-mania

I like that game. It's not one of my favorites, but I do enjoy it. I also use to rent it back when, so maybe that has something to do with it.

Clearly you didn't own a Mega Drive. Of all of my 10 games only Sonic 3 has a save feature (and that's busted) and only 2 more a password system.

I totally understand what you're saying. But at the same time, Hook is such a short and easy game, that you really don't need to save it.

And yeah, the game is good, despite being short and easy. It's just so bright, colorful, and nice looking.

Nope, I had a SNES growing up. I got my first Genesis when the model 3 came out. I hated that Sonic 1 and 2 didn't save like Sonic 3.

It certainly didn't feel easy and short when I was renting it back in the 90's. It's funny when you realize how much you sucked at video games when you were a kid.

When Super Mario World is a launch game and comes with battery saves it makes everything else on the system with passwords feel like a downgrade.

It just proves you Nintendo kids were filthy noobish casuals. Us Sega kids were raised to be hardcore. Saves? Passwords? HA. Those things are for old people who can't hold it in and have to go to the toiler once every 3 hours, or even worse, people with jobs or kids, or both.

When you join Sega you are living the blue sky life, no excuse to stop a game midpoint.

Plus there were at least 50 NES games with a battery save

I'm cool with passwords as long as they're not freakishly long.

Faxanadu had those passwords where you couldn't tell certain characters apart on screen, much less after you wrote it down and left it for a few weeks.

And then there's the full transfer password for Golden Sun.
