Home Alone (SNES) Playthrough

- A playthrough of THQ's 1991 Super Nintendo license-based platformer, Home Alone.
The Super Nintendo version of Home Alone was one of the first games for the 16-bit console, releasing just in time for the 1991 holiday season.
You play as Kevin, a precocious brat whose family accidentally leaves him behind when they leave for their Christmas vacation in Paris. The Wet Bandits, a couple of small-time crooks, have set their sights on riches of the McCallister house, and it's up to Kevin to defend his home.
The game is split across levels, each set in one of four "wings" of the house. Kevin has to collect a certain number of items to deposit in the laundry chute to prevent the robbers from stealing them, and then he has to go to the basement to face off against some creature conjured up by his overactive imagination.
It's a simple search-and-collect style game, and though it doesn't do anything revolutionary, it works well enough. Imagineering's SNES effort fared far better than Bethesda's pathetic attempt on the NES ( • Home Alone (NES) Playt... ), that's for sure! The controls are reliable, the soundtrack is festive, and the graphics are colorful. I've certainly had some fun with it over the years.
(Does the basement remind anyone else of Maniac Mansion?)
The real selling point seemed to be the digitized stills from the film. Screenshots were regularly shown off in magazines, and they were super impressive by 1991 standards. The sampled scream that plays when Kevin gets caught is also pretty fun.
When all is said and done, it wasn't bad and it wasn't great, but Home Alone for the SNES got the job done. It made for a good weekend rental if you found yourself hankering for something to get you into the Christmas spirit, and it was by far the best game THQ had released to this point.
Merry Christmas, yuh filthy animals! :)

No cheats were used during the recording of this video.
NintendoComplete (www.nintendocom...) punches you in the face with in-depth reviews, screenshot archives, and music from classic 8-bit NES games!
This version of Home Alone was soooooo much better than the dumpster fire that was the NES game. I actually had fun with this one!
What's interesting about this version of Home Alone is that it is actually more of a true sequel to the first movie, and the music was done by Bitmasters who would be VERY prominent during the Gameboy and Gameboy Color era where they did the music for MANY Infogrames games on those systems.
Dumpster fire you say? That's my cue, Captain Coelacanth! AWAYYYYY~
pc(dos) was better
I remember renting the nes version as a kid and returning it the same day. It was very unpleasant to play
*Watches Kevin pull a bag of money out of the toilet* Me: "Yes, of course"
What about an entire pizza??lol
Oh like we haven't all frivolously pissed our money away from time to time.
4:21 - I always thought Marv's face kind of looked like a Chucky Doll with a beard.
To me, this is the very definition of a guilty pleasure. I still have fond nostalgia for this,even though it's not that good. Probably my favorite game from Imagineering, too.
Hoo boy, this one's...a little more like it. Sure doesn't hold a candle to the Genesis one though. Here Kevin has to...send all the stuff and all the...many pets we had no idea the McCallister's owned down to the basement's giant vault to lock 'em away from Harry, Marv and...their...evil minions? Ok, but Kevin's digitized scream when you get Game Over is easily the best thing here.
I actually owned this one. It wasn't close to my favorite SNES title, but it was fun to play. The basement area with the grey bricks and the music always reminded me of Goro's Lair from Mortal Kombat for some reason.
2:28 - Did the McCallisters buy their house from Dr. Fred Edison? Because that dungeon background looks an awful lot like the one from Maniac Mansion.
This game left out the best part; "Kevin, what'd you do to my room?!?"
Be sure to neatly stack your pets in the basement and lock them up when not in use!
4:21 lol.... bllaaarg!
i feel sorry for the people who own the real mcalister house getting hundreds of trespassing lookyloos and pizza bombs this time of year
wonder if they ever put partying mannequins in the windows and played angels with filthy souls to those who make it to the door?
The scream whenever you get caught is still funny to hear and see even 😆 and at least the final boss wasn't a freaking furnace *apparently in the game boy version, even to the point where it have a face*
Be right back, checking my shower for pizza
I Love the Couple Kevin McCallister and Spot
Had the GB version of the game and thought it wasn't bad...only thing it made me wonder what mansion the McAlisters lived in
I believe the actual house is now up for use on Airbnb
@matt yes
I played this videogame, greetings from Guaranda, Ecuador.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Kevin McCallister: I Made My Family Disappear This Is My House I Have To Defend It
Good lord the McCallisters were LOADED
"Home Alone for Libertarian Party"
Home Alone is My Favorite Movie
Incredible video.
I remember I borrowed this from a friend in High School and completed it the same evening.
I don’t remember that part in the movie where Kevin fought Oddjob from Goldfinger, La Bamba from Conan O’Brien, and bats, spiders, rats, and ghosts…
Play this every Xmas and the mega drive version 😎
Wonder if Macauley Culkin has ever played this?
Although slightly more playable than the NES one, you're just better off swiping a copy of the Genesis version.
Maligayang Pasko everyone !
I have this game and Home alone 2, The mouse boss stage was hard! Until I know how to beat this game by standing in the left side of the screen
I think the Sega version is better. Much better even the music was better.
The Genesis version was definitely better however I prefer the music of the Super NES version. It sounds more Christmas like in my opinion.
4:22, the sound of a real asshole. XD
4:46, least they're kind enough to give the key to the room next to the door after collecting all of the requirements.
8:05, DAD. How sweet.
8:55, this song sounds like it belongs in Back to the Future.
29:00, also...why this image of Kevin shirtless for the game over screen?!
didn't you already play this or am i confusing with the gameboy version
Yeah I did. This is new recording though, and it's in 4k
So amazing gameplay, my favorite movie.
KEVINNNNNNNN 😊
Think they did better with this one then the sequel ,be blessed all in Jesus shalom
the gameplay of this game it's kinda similar to Michael Jackson's Moonwalker for Genesis
This looks so much easier than the Gameboy version.
Yeah boi!
The nostalgia is tooo strong with one ugh 😭😭

ㅋㅋ신기하네요
Is this the game where Buzz gets a restraining order from his girlfriend after giving her The Who’s who and what’s for?
That's super disturbing. Thanks.
