Here's a look at every game that came out for SNES during its launch year of 1991 - czcams.com/video/_vvblnbfP4g/video.html
@ 4:10 , was that a Parappa the Rappa reference? ;)
@@dadrand0m Yes.
The House of The Dead REMAKE Nintendo Switch
SNES is technically 1990.
Super Famicom was released in 1990, SNES was released in 1991.
I got the SNES after a cousin rented SFII and I fell in love with the game. A Link to the Past was my 2nd favorite game in 1992. In 1993 SFII Turbo made me forget about every other game.
My best friend across the st had street fighter two. Many days spent playing that. Great memories. I played a link to the past all summer in 93.
Street Fighter II Turbo was what came with my SNES. I played the game to death
SF II Turbo is an amazing port. A lot of Sega fanboy swear their Championship port is better. Hell no.
Kids these days have no idea how freaking huge SFII was back then. I remember when I was a kid my local arcade had 6 arcade machines of SFII all in a row, and there was always a line for each one whenever I showed up. Even some of our Burger Kings had a SFII machine set up. It was bananas.
I remember constant tournaments between friends back when sf turbo came out. Ahh the good ol days of fresh SNES.
What a year. ‘92 is the one year I’d love to relive over and over.
I agree with you
I loved the arcade pit fighter game. The snes version was my 4th snes game to buy with my paper route money and boy was I severely disappointed. Walmart let me return the game for super ghosts and goblins. I picked up super contra after shoveling snow all day and I still have all my games in good condition with the original packaging.
Your channel brings back so many memories.
It's funny that you mentioned that Walmart lets you return your game because you didn't like it. KB Toys did the same thing for me with pit fighter back when it came out!(think about all the people that return to that game) 🤣👍 That would never happen today though.
@@andrewmoe7078 I totally forgot about KB Toys. The KB at my local mall would set their own prices on games. They were the only place around with Street Fighter 2 in stock and I paid $70. Lmao. I'm still mad at myself for that.
Zelda 3 and Super Star Wars were my favourites and I still play the games several times every year. Super Star Wars had a fantastic soundtrack too which made the game so much better.
i owned spuer star wars and empire it but never beat either one ......i wonder why we never got super return of the jedi or any jedi game ?
All those games debuted when I debuted. 1992, a truly epic year.
Not a bad year when I was a kid. If you compare that to anything before 1992
@@Vulpas Tyson's punchout came out in 87
Same here haha august
For Contra III there was a really cool trick that you could do to use both weapons at the same time. The X button was used to switch between weapons. If you have the Snes asciiPad you could set the x button on auto which would rapidly change back end forth weapons and essentially allow you to blast out double the firepower
TMNT IV: Turtles in Time is one of the rare cases where the SNES port is far superior to the arcade version in almost every way (except for the lack of 4-player simultaneous play). Better gameplay, better bosses, more stages, and even the mode 7 graphics were better than whatever the arcade version of Turtles in Time was doing.
Yes, it was super fun, but felt too easy to me.
controller 4 way splitters were a thing not long after the game came out.
Playing Street Fighter II with the Capcom Fighter Power Stick in the early/mid 90’ was amazing.
A Link to the Past for me. It's in the Top-10 Best Games of All-Time in my opinion. A very special honorable mention goes to TMNT IV: Turtles in Time as well. I also really enjoyed Ys III: Wanderers From Ys...but on the TG-CD.
Super Adventure Island was the first game I rented for the SNES and 30 years later I still go back to it frequently. So much nostalgia for The Legend of the Mystical Ninja, a fantastic soundtrack to boot.
I played it alot in arcade.
Super Adventure Island is very fun and it has a sick soundtrack
Wow, what a stellar line-up of games! So many classics, so many memories. I remember playing Super Star Wars during Christmas of 1992 and we were blown away!
John, you’re one of my favorite CZcamsrs. Your voice, tone, and cadence are super calming. Your videos are super helpful for relaxation. You have a super positive and calming energy. Also I just love the content. I can’t get enough of old school gaming. Seriously thank you for what you do.
Thank you for the kind words.
I agree, man. I'm 43, and just about everything on this channel meshes well together. Nostalgia mixed with an upbeat attitude and a nice presentation make for a relaxing and enjoyable few minutes during a hectic day. Thanks!
I agree. You should consider stitching some of your similar videos together into a long compilation.
Another CZcamsr, Whang!, Who I really like, does that, and I thought I was weird because I would put those videos on to fall asleep and keep it playing because I don't sleep well, so when I would wake up in the night, it would still be playing and I'd fall right back to sleep. Lo and behold, there are tons of comments of others who do the same thing.
Just something to think about.
I have a strong attachment to so many games from 1992. I got my SNES for Christmas of '92, and along with SMW being packed in, my parents got me and my brother Super Double Dragon, so that's actually the first game we played on it. Joe and Mac was also the first game I rented. I had surgery in early '93, so I got Zelda, Street Fighter II and Super Star Wars to keep me occupied during my recovery. ALttP is probably my favorite game of all time, but man that was a killer lineup.
1992 was such a great year. Thanks for making this video. It actually brought back many memories. Even though Magic Sword, TMNT, Star Wars, Double Dragon, Zelda, Mario Kart, and all of shooters were either owned or rented, my favorite was Street Fighter 2. It was the system seller for me. I traded my Genesis, a few games, and mowed many lawns to get the SNES, two controllers, and Street Fighter 2. I put so many hours into it, and still am good at it to this day.
Great choice!!
No regrets?
1992. That was such a good year for my SNES. I received that year in order: Contra III: The Alien Wars, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Street Fighter II, TMNT IV: Turtles in Time, Super Star Wars, and Road Runner: Death Valley Rally. I also received a Genesis for Christmas that year.
Yes!. been waiting for more in this series. I've been curating a games list for my son to play as he grows up. This, John hancock's hidden gems and CGQ's launch games videos are an invaluable resource.
In 1992 my friend got an SNES for his birthday, and for the next several weekends I stayed over at his house every Saturday Night and played Top Gear, Street Fighter II, and Final Fight.....also Super Mario World because it came with the console. Those are some of the best memories I have.
This year was a revelation in gaming for me with the snes.
Of all the great Super Nintendo games from '92, I can safely say that I sank most of my time in drawing in Mario Paint.
92 was a phenomenal year for the SNES. Just one hit after another.
1992 may well be my favorite year of childhood gaming... Turtles in Time, Link to the Past, Street Fighter 2, Super Star Wars., Mario Kart... man, every Nintendo Power that came in the mail was a harbinger of the awesomeness id be renting in the near future - and the NES had some bangers that year too.
Thank you for bringing up the NES in 1992. Even though we already had a SNES in the house, I got Mega Man 4 and Darkwing Duck for the NES that Christmas and had a great time with each!
@@MichaelTaylor-qp2xf oh man; I got DWD for my birthday that year and also got MM4 for Xmas! Love the NES in 92; just wish I had the foresight to grab games like Panic Restaurant, Little Samson and Felix The Cat before they got crazy!
You deserve a Golden Riggs Seal of Quality for this series, thank you!
I played Super EDF at a friend's house when I was a kid and never could remember the name of the game. I only knew the music to level 1 and now after 30 years I can finally play it again! Thank you!
I love this “next year” of classic gaming consoles. Everyone has done the launch titles thing to death. But it’s the first year or two where some of the most interesting things come out (at least back in the day. Now video game consoles kinda just “are” for the first few years).
War of the Gems, Turtles in Time, X-men Mutant Apocalypse, Mario Kart, Mario all stars, Maximum Carnage, Separation Anxiety, NBA JAM and Super Castlevania 4.
TMNT Turtles in Time, Super Mario Kart, Link to the Part, Super Double Dragon!!! These are my favorites but thanks John some other games to check out
Never heard of "Link to the Part". Is it good?
@@comicsdude3166 yeah man, hidden gem on the SNES, check it out, it's pretty rare
@@snbks4ever did you mean "Link to the Past" ?😁
@@comicsdude3166 well yeah of course I did, was just a typo unless there is some homebrew with that name
Also, Cantra III may well be the cream of the crop: Atmosphere, Action, and Aggravation were all on 11 for it...still more fun to play than many titles for the SNES...
I've never played Cantra. What is it?
What a great list!
Is this the Boston exclusive version of Contra III?
@@jayhopt Hahahaaaa..Good one...Sounds better than "Twas a typo!"
@@stinkypinkeee5085 all in good fun, no malicious intent. Just funny.
So many great games for the SNES in 92. Think my favorite from this group would have to be TMNT 4: Turtles in time. But had such great times with Street Fighter 2, Bart's Nightmare , Mario Paint and Mario Kart (amongst others). Also got some games I need to check out soon that I haven't had the chance to enjoy yet (all these years later). Great video John, looking forward to the next one.
I will sing this song until the day I die:
Legend of the Mystical Ninja is one of the greatest SNES games ever made.
Axelay is amazing BUT, it didn't actually use Mode 7! It used Mode 1 and 2 layers for the scrolling. Konami pulled out a lot of visual tricks for this one.
interesting!
I was born in 1992 but I do remember beating Contra 3 in 1999 and is still my favourite game today. Still need to watch the Super Cyborg video you released, but my god did that game truly hit the contra itch I was looking for a 5 years ago, still looking to scratch that contra itch though today.
John I love your consistency I've found so many great games from your channel and I have to say I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge and time with us! Much love man! 🎮📺
Great stuff, loved the video. Really takes me back, and reminds me that there's still more games that I need to add to my collection.
Probably my favorite part of Mystical Ninja was the mini-games in the carnival section. I also really liked the silly humor in the story cut scenes such as the new transportation device which was a cannon that fired you across the country.
same. I'd go there just to play Gradius.
Takes me back. Was a good year to have a SNES.
I still remember the day we saw SFII in the arcade and it just looked soooooo sick, and then we were literally able to play it on our TV at home later that night, just amazing
I love playing Super Mario Kart was my number 1 favorite SNES Game of All-Time that I play it so much when I was a 7 year old child since 2008.
1992 was just ridiculous for video games:
- TMNT IV - my favourite beat-em-up on the system
- Mario Kart - my favourite racing game on the system
- Street Fighter 2 - such a class fighting game
- Legend of Zelda - my favourite SNES game period!
And on the Sega Genesis side of the pool, Sonic 2 and Streets of Rage 2?! What a year to be a young gamer with some disposable income!! :D
Wanderers From Y's was one of my favorite SNES games that came out in 1992. I like that game so much I even own and played Y's III on the Sega Genesis.
I love it too. I have on both SNES and Genesis. I like the music better on Sega, it rock harder, but like the better colors on Nintendo. They're both fun 😊
The only game from this list I actually played, as in, get into the most, was Super Star Wars. The bosses were so fun to fight, but they were hard as hell to finish. As for Legend of Zelda, we never actually learned how to play it, we even had some difficulty in traversing the map and we never knew where we should have gone next.
@@Vulpas because my brother and I played SNES games together as kids. I did really play a lot of Star Wars on SNES though.
I will never forget Christmas morning 1992 getting the Super Nintendo and A Link to the Past. Legendary
I missed out on the golden Era of SNES. My siblings and I got an NES in 1988. We begged and pleaded for an SNES when it came out, but never got one until 1995. A year later the N64 came out, but I didn't get my hands on one of those until 1999.
I just found this channel, but i remembered playing legend of the mystical ninja as a kid at my cousins house and all i could remember from it was the art design of the houses and one of the bosses. I have been trying to find the name of this game for years! And this video did it!
Always enjoyable to watch these. Keep them coming!
Even though I'm a 92 baby I love me some old systems I mostly played the Sega Genesis as a kid it wasn't until much later I played the Super Nintendo thanks too Nintendo re releasing the Mini and I got too experience some of my favorites Super Mario all stars plus world and Donkey Kong Countrys,Castle Vania 4,Aladdin,Super Mario Kart and Star Fox are my favorites
Best summer of my life was 1992! Final Fantasy 2, Street Fighter 2, Pilot Wings ruled my nights!
So many memories! Omg. Ty for the throwback!
Contra 3. I was jamming on Sega with Road Rash 2, Streets of Rage 2, and Sonic 2 as well. 1992 is probably one of my favorite years in gaming of all time.
It’s cool to see the games that released on the year I was born. I’m grateful to remember - being able to get new SNES games for Christmas & birthday as a child (1996). I was born JUST in time to still get new games being released at the end of the SNES’s life. (Games like Kirby’s Dream Land 3, Donkey Kong Country 3, Super Mario RPG). Luckily, my older brother had already acquired some of the games listed in this video, so I didn’t miss out. SNES will for ever be my favorite console. Great video. Thanks for sharing!
My old neighbor had Ys 3 for the SNES in 1992, and for Christmas she gave it to me that year. I know Ys 3 gets a lot of negativity, but I love that game, it holds a ton of nostalgia for me and I always return to it.
Was born in 92 and recently got my first snes so thank you for some recommendations.
So many memories when I was 7-9 playing a lot of those games miss 😢my snes I gotta get another one ❤❤❤!!!
The background in Axelay actually isn't mode 7 which is even more impressive. Also my favorite game in this list is hands down is The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
It's good to hear Mystic Quest getting some love. I was six years old when this game came out, and it was my introduction to RPG's. Complicated? No. Nostalgic? Absolutely. And that music...
Oh 1992 What a year . I finally got my Super NES for Christmas with Super Mario World and I couldn't be happier. My mom also got me TMNT 3 and Ninja Gaiden 2 for NES I didn't ask for them but I accepted them anyway. On New years eve my mom got me Street Fighter 2 I went to my cousins house who got a Super NES for Christmas like me and we spent all day and night playing Street Fighter 2 until my mom came to pick me to go home on New Year's Day.
I LOVE that you mentioned the Genius! Love your channel, dude, keep up the quality material!
1992 was a pretty good year for the SNES. Pretty sure I played most of these games.
Contra 3 definitely brings back memories. It was my turn to rent a game, and I remember asking my brother about Link to the Past, since he rented it before. Well, I get to Blockbuster, and they didn't have it. But I found Contra 3, so that was a good consolation prize.
Rampart was another one of my brother's rentals. Lost to him every time.
And last but not least, Joe & Mac. The last game we ever rented from Blockbuster.
Top Gear was all the rage here in South America!!!
It has a silly glitch: if you end a race by crashing into the metal columns of the finish line, you'll get points for the place you finished + the next position (i.e.: you finish 1st and 2nd, so you get points for the 1st and 2nd position).
My absolute favorites from this list are Ys 3, Axelay, and Imperium, and of those, I'd have to go with Ys 3; it has great music, a cool adventure, really wild-looking equipment icons, and a crazy-big moveset right out the gate! Still, lots of really underrated games on this list, and even more underrated soundtracks; Joe & Mac, Ys 3, the weird Super Adventure Island, Final Fantasy Mystic Quest, Super Double Dragon, Magical Quest, and even Spanky's Quest! Spanky's Quest also had such surreal visuals; I especially liked World 3 and 4. Also, I will absolutely go to bat for Final Fantasy Mystic Quest; it has a lot of neat features, and is definitely worth a play.
Zelda for sure! That’s the game I always go back to and never get disappointed and play to the end. Great video, so nice to be reminded of the golden era of video games
Kick.. punch… it’s all in the mind! Love the Parappa the Rapper reference, Riggs!
While I would never consider WWF' Super WrestleMania my favorite for 1992, I was today year's old finding out The Genius voiced the ref in that game!! WWF Royal Rumble and WWF Raw were so much better or even the Genesis version of WWF Super WrestleMania which had 2 less wrestlers, it at least had finishing moves
I always thought Wrestlemania had the best roster of the 3 though, but everyone will have a different opinion on that.
@@wiseguy8100 The roster, yes, it was an amazing roster, maybe the only thing the SNES version had going for it
Loved Magic Sword in the Arcade and the SNES port was pretty good!
Great game review video John. Played most of these games back in the early 90s when had unlimited time on hand like Super EDF, Axelay, Zelda 3, Mickey, SF 2, FF2, Mystic Quest, Top Gear. These are great games and didn't cost millions to make taking hundreds of hours to play through.
I received my SNES the Christmas of '92. It was just the deck with one controller. I got Final Fantasy 2(4) with the system. The first game I bought the very next day was Legend of the Mystical Ninja. I loved that game. I liked going to the arcade areas and playing Gradius.
I still play Turtles in Time all of the time, along with all the other classics. I've never grown out of the Snes!!
Super Double Dragon also had that bop of a theme.
That referee in Super Wrestlemania sounds like he’s full of glory and renown, from the top of his graduation cap to the bottom of his silken gown.
My favorites are Super Double Dragon and Street Fighter 2 and Super Wrestlemania and Link to the past and Joe and Mac and Mario kart😎🎮👍
Hell yeah. Gonna have that Top Gear song in my head all day. I saw a video not too long ago where a Brazilian fighter/boxer came out to that track as their entrance music. So awesome.
Eyyyyy Joe & Mac was the first SNES game I ever rented as well! **fistbump**
My mom surprised me by buying the console a few weeks after Christmas, and with it, she rented J&M. Still love it.
I never owned a 16-bit console growing up. Went straight from NES to N64 as my parents wouldn't get us SNES or Genesis. My neighbor had SNES, and I would use any excuse I could to go over and play it. They only had like 4 games though so I really only got to play TMNT 4, Mario World, and F-Zero. I had a friend get a Genesis and another get an SNES later on down the road so I got to play DKC and Sonic, but not a whole lot else. I finally got both SNES and Genesis as an adult, but I am still pretty early on in building my collections for those.
Great video!! Saw another video recently explaining how Axelay uses mode 1 and not mode 7!... I also never knew that! Keep it up!
And now I can carry round and play EVERY game from my youth on a keyring. The Funkey S needs more love.
For me; Krusty's Super Fun House, Home Alone 2, NCAA Final Four Basketball, Prince Of Persia, Q*Bert 3, RoboCop 3, Strike Gunner and Super Scope 6,
You basically pinpointed my whole childhood in one video. It's insane how many games I used to have that came out in 1992. I guess my brother went crazy buying stuff that year, probaby my dad got some salary bonus or something that year. I was really brought back watching this vid.
I was hooked by the title alone! Bravo!
One game that came out in 1992 not mentioned in video, Aero fighters. Boss music rocks, good two player game, & all kinds of pilots to pick from.
It's crazy to think as much as I've enjoyed gaming over the years, as far back as my gaming history goes, I fell off the pace after the third gen and almost completely missed out on everything after that. Long story short, I ended up more-or-less going the PC route starting in the early 90s. I know the SNES is a very revered console, but I can count on one hand the number of times I ever played on one. I don't think I've ever even laid eyes on one since 1992. No lie, I think I actually put in more playtime on a Panasonic 3DO than the SNES (because I knew a guy from a rich family, haha).
I remember taking my sega genesis to my friends house who has a snes. We’d set up a 2nd tv in his rec room. He’d play my sega and I’d play his snes. I’d either bring pizza or his mom would order some for us. So much fun.
Link to the Past was the first game I bought with my own money. Mowed a lot of lawns and did a lot of babysitting as a 12 year old but it was SO WORTH IT.
Super Mario World, still to this day, is the highwater mark of platformers.
Super Ghouls and Ghosts was another favorite.
Super G & G is badass!
That Mickey game was so good!!! Omg, I loved playing both that game and Goof Troop with my dad when I was a kid. The Ice stage of Mickey scared me as a kid. That song was so creepy to me, for some reason. Loved the Fire and Mountain stages though.
Lot of powerhouse titles in this list, brother.
I'm gonna have to go with Top Gear as my favorite on the list.
Me and my best friend came back to that one a lot, even well towards the end of the 16-bit era
Great list! I’ve got my OG NES/SNES hooked up alongside my NES/SNES Mini consoles. Still have a ton of carts and will most likely dig through them soon. Also SMS 😳 Great video! 👍
Fun fact: On the Ball was compatible with the SNES mouse. I rented it a couple times because we owned Mario Paint. Really fun game!
Joe & Mac doesn't feel the greatest when you first pick it up, but after putting time into it it really controls fine and is a great game. I have so many memories of playing this co-op with my Mom as a kid. Really, I had just as much fun playing Joe & Mac with her as I did with other classics like Bubble Bobble, Chip & Dale Rescue Rangers, and Contra. It's always a shame to me that others don't care for this game like I do. (Sadly, all these games just don't feel nearly as fun to me in single player mode though either.)
How to cheese pit fighter. Play as the kickboxer and put your opponent close to the crowd and between you and the crowd. Use your jumping double spinning kick special which will help them twice and knock them backwards into the crowd. After a few frames the crowd will bounce them back to roughly where they were. While they are bouncing back to you use your double jumping kick again which will throw them back into the crowd etc etc
I remember sinking hours into super wrestlemania with my friends. Used to love that and it had completely slipped my mind. Same thing for Joe and mac
Love these videos John keepem comin!
Good list of new games to play. Thanks
Wow I forgot what an amazing year this was for SNES!! Great video!!
Link to the past is one of the greatest games of all time.
Don't know about that. It's probably one of the best Zelda games maybe.
This is why the donkey Kong series will always be my favorite games ever. It brings me back to such a simple time in life.
I’ll never forget when I first got Super Nintendo with street fighter 2 tournament edition… it was a great time.
Awesome bro! Great videos 🤘
I would add: Space Megaforce was the best SNES shooter in 1992... probably the best shooter for SNES ever. The music, sound effects, gameplay, boss fights, visuals. A fantastic game.
Love your content Johnny Riggs!
I was a PC/Sega MD kid, I always wanted a SNES too. Love 16 bit games
