I started with Tempest 2000 and was blown away, wondering how Jaguar could've failed with games this awesome. It was a very selective, distorted impression of that system's overall library but the Jag having less than a dozen good games wasn't a problem for a kid who couldn't afford loads of games anyway.
The snowboarding game isn't using Mode 7, but line scrolling, the technique used to draw the road in many racing games like Outrun or Hang On, hence why it can have hills & dips where the mode 7 tracks in Mario Kart and F-Zero were flat
You can't go wrong with either of these consoles. SNES was well stocked with excellent games as well as some killer apps like Actraiser, A Link to the Past, Mario World etc. The Jag had some killer apps that simply couldn't be done on SNES like Rayman, AVP, Skyhammer, Battlemorph, Tempest 2000, Defender 2000.
So the reason for the 1/3 screen HUD for the Jaguar version of RAIDEN is because in the arcade the screen is on it side allowing you to see more vertical then horizontal, adding the hud fixes the aspect ratio to make it closer to the arcade.
Good video! Nice comparison of the the Super Nintendo and the Atari Jaguar games for each system! Hope you'll do more of these! I always liked Cannon Fodder for the Atari Jaguar! Fun game!
I remember having a super nintendo, and my cousin having a 7800, and him arguing his atari was better because jaguar was "64 bit" I guess he seen alot of them brainwashing jaguar commercials
I bow before a TRUE gamer! Thank you for your comprehensive, insightful comparisons. I was always curious about Nintendo and Sega during that time frame, being an Atari fanboy. Keep up the great work!!
Nba Jam on the Jaguar is flipping awesome. It's the only one I've played a full season through on any console. The color and controls are kick ass. I always play as the Hornets!
You missed a few such as Dragon's Lair (Jaguar CD), Flashback: The Quest For Identity, Gods (recent homebrew port), Pinball Fantasies, Syndicate, and The Chaos Engine (recent homebrew port). I only listed homebrew ports that I know have a physical release. AtariAge just added 3 more to their store, and I know of at least 4 more that have been licensed for release on the Jaguar that are still in the works that will be sold thru the AtariAge store. The Jaguar now has more aftermarket releases by far than it had commercial releases back in the day (from AtariAge, Songbird Productions, GDG, and others). And I like the Jaguar controller.
@ 15:07 Yay, Doom! Okay, SNES Doom is impressive as a technical achievement, but that aside, it's pretty rough. Resolution and frame rate are poor, among other problems. But, it does have good-quality music during play, and its level layouts are *far* more complete than the heavily-edited Jaguar levels. Also it should be mentioned that the stuttering-snowstorm effect seen in the SNES Doom footage here is due to emulation, and is not seen in the actual game.
I believe the huge status bar in Jag Raiden was to preserve the aspect ratio of the arcade game, which iirc was longer vertically than horizontally. If the bar wasn't there there would probably be no horizontal scrolling at all on the Jag version, and also you would have a load of enemies that would not have been seen that would now be seen and would shoot at you, making the game far more difficult. It's not in any way due to the Jag's capabilities, as I think this is mostly running off the 68k rather than the custom chips. Bit cheap (probably due to timescales and budget) to use the status bar rather than rebalancing the game, but more authentic in a way.
Lol but the problem with all these comparisons is that we didn't expect better versions of 16bit ports by the time they came out on the Atari Jaguar people had been playing them for years. The graphics are prettier than the SNES expected but are they are they as good as the Playstation? Which is what Atari had to compete with because it was considered next gen so people upgrading skipped Atari and just went straight to PS1/N64 and some special people like me the Sega Saturn 😋
Sometimes I wonder if multiplatform games seem easier on the SNES because of Nintendo's endless revision requests to meet their high "also for kids" standards... and then I remember LJN -_-
It’s common knowledge that despite the complexity of the Atari console, most games turned out to be better on Jaguar than on the SNES due to more powerful hardware (obviously). Some games like Doom, Wolfenstein 3D, Raiden, NBA Jam T.E. and Troy Aikman NFL Football looked and performed better on Jaguar, while other games fall short like Double Dragon V and The Bruce Lee Story. Both of these games look way better on Jaguar (particularly Bruce Lee) but have less content for some weird reason.
This is so strange...why did the Snes games typically have better color?! The Atari Jaguar had the same color capabilities as the Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation with 16.7 million colors available....very strange. The Snes version of NBA Jams was...okay. It was the weakest entry in the 16-bit console category. The lack of music during gameplay and the announcer sounding like he's in a bathroom didn't help matters at all. NBA Jams on the Jaguar however was the best version of that game in the 1990's. Mot only does it cream the Snes version but it beats the Saturn and PlayStation as well. It features the closest to the arcade that we ever got...still too this day. The characters scale, announcer is crystal clear, effects pop all over the screen...this is why I got a Jaguar in 1994 (well for Doom at first but you get it). Addendum- Why would it be difficult to imagine the Jaguar having a better version of a game? It wasn't just a little better than the Snes...there is no competition between the two hardware wise. The 16-bit Motorola microprocessor it used as a helper chip by itself would run circles around the Snes...think twice as strong as the Genesis main processor.
because developers saw the jag wasnt selling so spent as little resources as possible on them. some games like themepark were done by just one person !
@@steviegbcool The Tramiel Family were notorious cheapskates and wouldn't pay anybody anything. Not only that, they were notorious for stiffing people entirely and just stealing their work. Needless to say, they had completely burned relations with software developers and retailers by the time Jaguar arrived.
While the Jaguar was a failiure as a 64bit machine compared to the later N64, it did play games of the late 16bit and early 32bit era really well. It's sorely underrated, imho.
too bad they were so lazy doing the the jaguar version of pitfall. however the rest showed the power of jaguar. i loved playing raiden on the jaguar, that menu on the side was made to keep the original size of the game intact because in the arcade the screen was laying on the side making it a 3:4 instead of 4:3 proportion. It was a good move IMHO. also the snes version was some what too easy against the bosses but when you die I think you come back in a checkpoint instead of a re-spawn, that was annoying. in FPS games the jag was unbeatable in its time, and the controller was the best for it, even more in some cases with the 6 button controller. . great video BTW
It doesn’t really help that Pitfall’s Jaguar port was made by Imagitec Design, who also made the Jaguar port of Raiden, which would later appear in this video.
Technically, Bubsy doesn't count. Fractured Furry Tales was a unique game, exclusive to the Jaguar; essentially Bubsy 3. I guess you could say, "Close enough!" and do it anyway. While the level designs were different, the overall game play was pretty similar.
Funny to think that Jaguar had VR in the 90's and the upcoming next Xbox is not powerful enough for VR. Imagine buying a console knowing you won't be able to play modern games like Half-Life Alyx and StarWars Squadron in VR.
@@dalton2k538 You are telling me seriously that the most powerful console has chosen (made the decision) to not accept modern games and make a pass on the best gaming technology of the past 4 decades. So the next xbox is purely for retro fake 3D flat-earth-gaming?

Microsoft should not even bother with VR for the Xbox series X console. VR is such a niche market of video games industry. And already are good enough stand alone VR headsets out and at reasonable prices. And they already have an established following from the VR gaming fan base.
I had Pitfall on the Jaguar. I actually really liked the game. But when my friend got it for his Sega Genesis (I never saw the SNES version), I did get really butt hurt because the Jaguar and Genesis version looked completely identical. I take it that Pitfall is one of the games that ignored the Tom and Jerry chips and just used the 68000 processor. Unpopular opinion on Raiden... I think it's overrated on any system. I actually thought Trevor McFur was better. I also have a controversial opinion on Doom, but you might actually agree with this. I thought the Doom music was annoying and was glad they left it out from the Jaguar version.
That enormous HUD in Raiden on the Jaguar is a deal-breaker for me. btw I think the best console version of this game actually goes to the PC Engine. But the SNES version is good.
15:08 it looks like you're emulating the game on an old version of snes9x, update to the latest version or switch to bsnes and the coloured dots will go away. BTW, the snes version of Doom did not use the original Doom source code and was developed independently from any other version of the game
It's missing a lot more than that, pal. We could make a huge list of what it didn't have in the 90s, and shoulder buttons was a significant blunder out of the gate.

Stretching the image to fill the 4:3 into a 16:9 is a crime against humanity.
Very cool topic and comparisons! Part 2 can have Flashback and Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story.
You can't go wrong with either of these consoles. SNES was well stocked with excellent games as well as some killer apps like Actraiser, A Link to the Past, Mario World etc. The Jag had some killer apps that simply couldn't be done on SNES like Rayman, AVP, Skyhammer, Battlemorph, Tempest 2000, Defender 2000.
Come on. Snes is one of the greatest consoles of all time. To compare it with the lucklaster mediocre jaguar, is just insane.
No one claimed otherwise.
I am a beat em up fan. Does the Jaguar have any good one's?
No. It has Ultra Vortek, which is the only one in its library that doesn't totally and comprehensively suck.
oh no. I was that guy that played through the snes port back in the day. The snes is the only way I could play it at the time. I feel so ashamed.
