What !? I remember there was an app that allowed net play on certain emulators. There was always people down to play Super Bomberman 2 (Or Tetris Attack) and I loved it. Bomberman games are great fun with friends especially if you can get 3 other people to play.
The games were fun in itself. It's a shame Super Bomberman 3-5 never left Japan, but had a plus playing the sequels on Emulators. I never new there was a Genesis Bomberman game which blew my mind! It looked fun was well. Another great episode!
these dudes are the last one of a kind youtubers, with amazing content that i honestly wait to watch, such a great channel, such fun and such good karma.
- Super Bomberman vs. Mega Bomberman - Super Turrican vs. Mega Turrican You just gotta love that little details when it comes to old classic Nintendo vs. Sega rivalry. You just can't make it more "VS." then having "Super vs. Mega" in the games titles.
Really happy to see Mega Bomberman win this one since I played that game a lot back in the day. The blue louie was always my favourite since you can briefly stun your opponents on battle mode if a bomb it kicks lands on them
You should have compared the Sega one with Super Bomberman 3. SMB3 could be considered as a Bomberman 94' port, so it is very similar to Mega Bomberman.
It's not. I have no idea what happened when porting to the SNES, but somehow it seems it could not handle the animation so they left the scrolling out. Even the MD is having a hard time to cope with all the little details that happened on Bomberman 94, so they left out half of the animations. At least the MD version scrolls.
Bomberman is one of my favorite franchises, mainly because it is so approachable by novice or non-gamers. IMO, Mega Bomberman story mode is the best of the 16-bit era... but... Super Bomberman 4 & 5 have the best battle modes hands down, making them the best party games.
Super Bomberman 4 i'd disagree, due to slowdowns that are a lot more present with all 5 players, and also, the movement is not quite fluid. Super Bomberman 5 improves over this and balances the mechanucs better than super 4 does. Although Bomberman '94 (also known as Mega bomberman and bomberman '08) is my favorite, it has less content, but it still feels smoother to move bomberman there. When i consider this, i'd Super Bomberman 5 and Bomberman '94/Mega Bomberman are the best options for battle mode for their time.
"Some stages on Sega go well beyond one screen!" Uh, so did the Super Nintendo version... *The sequel* Oh. "Check out the Game Over screens. On Sega, you see Bomberman all bandaged up." Uh, in the Super Nintendo version, he's like a broken robot about to shut down permanently. *That's the sequel* Oh. "You dont have to destroy all the enemies. Instead you have to destroy these keys." You did the same thing in the Super Nintendo version. *In the sequel* Ughhh.... "The BEST exclusive item: A Louie!" Louies are also- *IN THE SEQUEL* DAMNIT!!
I feel like the better comparison would have been Mega Bomberman and Super Bomberman 3,4, &5. Granted, Super Bomberman 3 -5 didn't come out in the USA, so I can see why you didn't compare them, but Mega Bomberman/Bomberman 94 & Super Bomberman 3-5 were all done in the same style. I absolutely love Super Bomberman 3-5 purely for the multiplayer battle mode. While Super Bomberman 1&2 may look and sound better, The level design in single player mode was much better in Super Bomberman 3-5 and the battlemode was epic (blowing away Super Bomber man and Mega Bomberman's battle mode).
Super Bomberman 3 did come out in PAL regions, I played the crap out of it. So that one at least is available in English and would have been a better comparison.
Don’t have to go that far. Just Super Bomberman 2 would’ve been already a better choice for this episode, especially because it released closer to Mega Bomberman and it actually got an English release.
Even though I liked Super Bomberman 3-5, I missed the bigger, multi-screen levels of Super Bomberman 2. I know single screen levels are kind of a Bomberman tradition, but I think the Bomberman games that have bigger levels show a little more variety.
Love this channel so much. It's one of the few youtubers that actually make actual content and not just rubbish that has to come out daily or once a week.
@@ConsoleWars Your welcome. I actually wanted to do entertaining content like this tho im camera shy but can act ironically but youtube is very intimidating for newcomers to get their foot in. But if you strike gold with that one thing you have to keep on doing it which is kinda sad. In some of my other favourite youtubers I always give encouragement that they can be free to try other styles or one game series specific channel can talk about others.
Graphics have a slight edge on Genesis. The presentation has more in the Genesis game. Both games have their own unique styles of sound. Tie. Gameplay is just fine no matter which game you play. Tie. Sega has a slight edge in graphics and presentation. Both have good sound and gameplay in their own ways. Sega wins, but both are good ones. Super Street Fighter 2 is next.
As a kid I used to keep on renting Mega Bomberman all the time constantly going through the campaign and inviting my longtime best friend to play multiplayer. The kangaroo louie on the UK Megadrive boxart got me screaming for hype "I can ride an adorable kangaroo and kickass... THIS IS MY DREAM!" I ended up buying Mega Bomberman cus i rented it so much, I also got Super Bomberman 1 and 2 which are great games to. I remember getting angry when my UK gaming mag mentioned the other awesome SNES sequels that I never got to play, then years later the emulator scene got popular and I fucking played the shiiiiit out of the SNES sequels at home or at school multiplayer.
You guys are funny AF, so entertaining, Console Wars should have 1,000,000 subs easy! OK, ARE WE DOOOIN THIS!!?. . . .BTW, Dan, your Nirvana covers are awesome, you're a really talented singer and player.
I love that the "newest" console wars episode in the playlist is NOT the Bomberman episode, but instead a recap of the NY Giants' first round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft XD
Saturn Bomberman is actually a different bomberman game, but from what i heard, it was going to be a remake of Bomberman '94/Mega Bomberman, but eventually became a different (but also really great) bomberman game.
Oh wow... after roughly 25 years I hear a few notes of the Mega Bomberman soundtrack again and instantly start humming the songs. I absolutely loved that game, even though the multiplayer killed one or two friendships. Thanks for this awesome Console Wars episode! It brought back many long lost memories.
Having Bobcat as Meta Knight cracked me up. I saw Mega Bomberman at a local game store fairly recently. I should've grabbed it. Thanks for continuing to make awesome content!
This was an unfair comparison. Mega Bomberman was a 1995 game with multiple titles before it to iterate upon. Super Bomberman 1 was a 1993 game, of course it was simpler. A fairer episode would’ve been Mega Bomberman vs Super Bomberman 2 (1994) for SNES. They’re both closer to each other’s launch. Comparing these two was like comparing Mortal Kombat 3 on Genesis vs Mortal Kombat 1 on SNES.
Man, you guys are a breath of fresh air, a call back to the old days of RUclips and retro game scene. Glad you guys are still making content. No clickbait, no algorithm chasing thumbnails and titles... Just buddies makin funny videos.
Something I appreciate about Console Wars compared to AVGN is how they actually look at the games. Like the biggest example is Castlevania how the AVGN was already biased towards Super Castlevania compared to how Console Wars looked at both.
Well James does admit that he has the most sentimental value for the SNES since that's what he had as a kid. It's largely why I prefer the Genesis. I don't remember him making any videos that were supposed to be unbiased comparisons of games on different systems, so I don't see it as a big deal.
@@chitlitlah Actually his SNES vs Genesis vídeo is umbiased since SNES is a better console. About Castlevania he just had preference for one game over the other.
@@josemarques131 Nah. For example, he dismisses BlastProcessing as pure marketing, ignoring that in fact Genesis games tend to have better framerate and more sprites in screen at once. The term is marketing, of course, but there was a tangible advantage of being a faster console overall behind that, and that's what Sega wanted to highlight with the advertisement. Not understanding something so simple shows a little fan blindness from AVGN in my opinion.
@@pepegrillo9722 I find that fan biased beliefs that Genesis has better performance kinda funny lol for sure come from people that don't know much and learn about videogames in sega fan channels though.
I personally think a better comparison would have been Super Bomberman 2 as it was released around the same time so it had many improvement in the single player mode.
And I have to say it would have been fairer to compare SB3 and MB, because they're closer games at gameplay and graphics. I know the third SB was released in Europe, but... Anyway, a good episode as always
Mega Drive (Sega Genesis): The Best Bomberman The Best Contra The Best Batman The Best Xmen The Best FIFA Soccer The Best Series Strike The Best Disney Games The Best Shooter Games The Best Beat em UP Games The Best Arcades Games The Best Sport Games The Best Run N GUN Games Genesis Does What Supernintendont
Really liked Mega Bomberman as a kid! Placed my bets on this one, though in my opinion, MB wins in the graphics department as well for its more "Bomberman-y" cartoon look and more vibrant color besides what was mentioned. Glad that you're still around and posting top quality content as ever!
?? from what I remember Bomberman offers his Rooi a ride on the jet and Rooi shakes his head like "I aint gettin' on no plane" and then the ending continues as normal, love that ending music though, it's got that Japanese/rave thing going on like Shinobi
I did enjoy Super Bomberman 1 & 2 but once Mega Bomberman released I honestly never went back to playing SB 1 or 2. With that said I do prefer Bomberman 94 on the PC Engine which Mega Bomberman was ported from as it has better graphics, graphical effects (see underwater stage), colors & none of the slowdown found in Mega Bomberman. For this comparison Mega Bomberman wins. Just my opinion
I finally got around to watching this. Great episode guys. Personally my exposure to "Bomberman" was in an commercial for one of his games either on Playstation or N64, which also had a reworking of the "Spider-Man" theme song. Also really got a kick out of the "Kirby" trailer, you celebrity impressions were really good here. Even though I haven't really played much "Bomberman", I think we can agree on one thing, both these games were way better than "Bomberman: Act Zero". LOL
Here's a suggestion for another Console Wars episode. It would be interesting to see you two do a 32-bit and 64-bit game for change. Fighting Vipers for the Sega Saturn vs Mace: The Dark Age for the Nintendo 64
Even if I have a softer spot for Super Bomberman 1, I placed my bets for Mega Bomberman in that episode. :P While SB1 is a more accessible game difficulty-wise, and the co-op mode is a sweet addition...MB has more features, more variety, and the multiplayer AI isn't stupidly dumb. ...oh...and btw : Super Bomberman 1 actually has an intro...in the Japanese version. It's still available in the Western releases, but for some reason...the game will never show it normally. You need to enter a Pro Action Replay code to watch it. :/
lol omg jap super bomberman has an intro so that evens up the odds. never knew that. thats cool. and besides the other bombermans get better and are better on the snes. sadly all jap exclusives tho after bomberman 2. and the gameplay is simple in every bomberman game. exception being bomberman 64 and those games on nintendo 64. so thats kinda biased. mega bomber is a port of turbografx game. which was epic. played both and love both tho so im sure if snes got it it can do the same if given the chance..
@@Diddy64wii ya i heard about that. wish it got released for usa too. since that was when the series got a design overhaul and took more elements from bomberman 94 n mega. with included the louies. just amazing on snes. we got our turbo port at least lol. sad i only learned of it years later on emulation. that game would have been a much more fair comparison in this video.
Awesome and super funny as always! You guys make my day I feel blessed to have your content available to enrich so many people's lives. Thank you so much for your work🍻
I started collecting Turbografx games after I became an adult and could afford them and Bomberman 93 and 94 became two of my favorite games ever. My friends and I played them a lot when they came over. It looks like the Genesis version is a very similar port, with perhaps the biggest difference that the TG-16 version supported five players instead of four. The SNES version apparently went its own way and made a different game instead of a straight port, and most of the differences make it inferior. It makes me want to hook up the Turbografx right now and play it.
I have '94 for the PC Engine. It was the first game I picked up. I absolutely love it, and 5 player with the multitap is a blast. I think it beats Super Bomberman in both color and sound, the PC Engine looks and sounds better than the Genesis in my opinion. For the SFC, Super Bomberman 4 is the best in my opinion, though 5 is also great. I don't own that one, but I.....have ways to play it. I do, however, own Saturn Bomberman, and it's by far the best. I only have 1 multitap, so 7 players is the max, but that's always been plenty.
back in the day at a local rental store people could rent this game with the Multi Tap Also. i would rent this along with Tiny Toon's Sport's to have a good time with my friends.
Love how you attempted to settle this with a real life Bomberman battle, and both of you used your best features to try and finish each other off. As for the rest of you, don't try this at home.
I've always liked the battle mode in Super Bomberman 1 more than 2 as the gloves in 2 made it allot more unbalanced in my opinion. However the story mode in Super Bomberman 2 is allot more fun even though it's only single player.
Another good video to the series. The bits at the start and end of the video really do well comedy wise and the layout for your own Bomber Man level was a nice detail to things. Good work as ever.
I'm still an active Bomberman player, I have played their games for years and I can say that currently my favorite Bomberman games are Bomberman 1 for NES, Super Bomberman 1 for SNES, Bomberman 1991 for TGX-16 (knowing in Europe as DynaBlaster) and Neo Bomberman for Neo Geo/Arcade, the reason is because these are the least stylized games on the franchise, but I feel that minimalism is precisely what touches up the most in the charm of the playable base without much added, in addition to the fact that its semi-3D rustic lookin style is very nostalgic for me.
RUclips recommended me this video and I'm loving these guys. Nintendo vs sega. Which game is better? Interesting concept and I love the little skits even though they are cheesy. I wanna see more
Could you imagine Pat and Dan covering Bombergirl? (Yeah, that one.) Still a good episode, with a comeback for Sega after the last episode... hope the upcoming _Super Street Fighter II_ episode does just as well, if not better (assuming we are talking baseline cartridges and not the romhack for the Genesis version.)
Mega Bomberman is a port of a PC Engine game, Bomberman 94, and it's actually better on the PC Engine (like it has 5 player multiplayer instead of 4 players like on the SNES and Mega Drive). So I wouldn't say mega bomberman is unique, because it looks and plays exactly like the PC Engine version. It's just a port. Not its own game.
You guys are so super talented! Those impressions are really good! Mega Bomberman is a port of Bomberman 94 for TurboGrafx-16. Those are obviously not the 2 systems this series compares, but it would have made far more sense to compare those. Perhaps when you've done all of the SNES & Genesis comparisons you can compare other consoles? I'd love to see that, as there are many more possibilities. Master System vs. NES, Game Boy vs. Game Gear and Atari 2600 vs. Intellivision are just a few examples that would be great (although that last one would no doubt result in much shorter videos as there would obviously be less to talk about.)
It would have been total unfair. BM94 is the best Bomberman ever. It is just perfect. More colours, way better animation with tons of little details added, and the OST is bonkers. The MD soundtrack is very limited in comparison.
@@2kBofFun the snes bombermans are epic. especially the later games. the genesis did well considering its sucessor on the turbografx. its a decent port. its great but i think saturn bomberman takes the title for the best 90s bomberman game. but i still enjoy the games on other consoles like turbo and snes and genesis. even the handheld gba ones are pretty neat.
@@ssppeeaarr The Snes versions were prety bad. Ugly graphics, no scrolling worlds, so-so music. Saturn Bomberman is just very very similar to BM94, as if Hudson finally agreed on a decent non PCE version after the demise of the platform. It is in no way better. Well ok, the bass sound is fuller and deeper, but on the other hand the music is a little less catchy and the unicorn hamsters are a strange offspring to the kangeroos in BM94. And the 10 player battle? Come on, who has 9 friends to play with? And the tiny sprites and lack of atmosphere ruin the battle experience.
@@2kBofFun abit biased for the turbogfx bomberman. which is fine. its a an epic game. lol. but to put down the snes games is dishonest! with super bomberman 3 on snes actually taking more influence from the turbo and mega bomberman. it had the intros. after stage animations. and even had the louies and had graphical downgrade to fit those games aesthetic. i prefer the look of super bomberman and 2. but super bomberman 3 that particular game would have been more fair to use in this console war vid. its basically snes port of bomberman 94. showin that stuff can be done on snes as well. and also the tunes from all snes bombermans are catchy and great. they suite the game worlds and set the atmosphere. u prob just hate snes bro. lol. and saturn bomberman which is considered by many fans of the series to be the best iteration of the genre. the iconic intro movie and music. the graphics are gorgeous. the stages are amazing and have extended parts have amazing animations. the music is atmospheric to each world. the samurai world for example. then the louies are absent here but instead we get dino like louies. which is cool dare say better then louies. lmao. its not a deal breaker. but they have similar powers so its not that a big deal. also something i enjoy'd was the master mode. also bomberman is dress like goku. lol its epic. but ya to each his own. i have tons of fav bomberman games. its hard to pick one as best of em all. but saturn bomber is deff in top 3. along with bomberman 94 and dreamcast bomberman.
Good episode, favorite part has to be the ending battle. A bit of a closer battle than I would've thought, I guess super bomberman did have some things that gave mega bomberman a run for its money. It's been a while since I last commented because I didn't really have any suggestions, but this time I came up with a few - Art of Fighting (SNES vs. Genesis) - World Heroes (SNES vs. Genesis) - Death and Return of Superman (SNES vs. Genesis) - There are enough Spider-man games for at least 3 episodes with Spider-Man (based on the animated series), Spider-Man and Venom: Separation Anxiety, and Spider-Man: Lethal Foes (SNES) vs. Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin/Spider-Man (Genesis) - I also had an idea for a series similar to What's the Difference? called Console Wars: Pocket, where you could breifly look at comparable games from competing handheld systems outside the typical formula. This could be a solution to the issue of covering Gameboy vs. Game Gear games, where you could explicitly leave out the graphics comparison.
It's been such a long time since I've seen a video like this, and even longer since I've seen a GOOD one. Very informative and chill, most importantly great comparison, nothing overly negative or nitpicky. Great video!
Whoa, Sega's on a roll lately! Was not expecting a Kirby movie sketch to begin with but it segued into the main part of the video very smoothly. My friend had a copy of Super Bomberman 1 back in the day and I remember enjoying Battle Mode a lot. You're right that the i-frames after respawning were ridiculous though. No wonder I didn't notice most of the sequels, since they weren't released here in the West. I'd forgotten Mega Bomberman ever existed and maybe didn't even notice it at the time, but you guys made a great case for the core 1-player campaign being light years ahead of the Nintendo version. Can hardly wait for the next episode!
my future console wars suggestions: Super Mario World vs Sonic The Hedgehog, Pinocchio, Bubby 2, Remake Aladdin, Top Gear 2, Super Mario Bros vs Sonic The Hedgehog(NES vs MS), Fatal Fury 2, Mr Nutz
When they don't compare the right games. Compare Super Bomberman 3 with Mega bomberman, they be almost identical art style but different games. Also about Super Bomberman Final Boss has 2 phases and the final Phase if he runs over you you die aswell
Another suggestion, I'd like to draw your attention to a game with an interesting backstory: Jim Power. Originally a Commodore Amiga game, it officially had an SNES version (that I have played on the original hardware). There was a Genesis version in development, but wasn't finished... until recently. Piko Interactive bought the rights to it, and after some modifications, have been working on re-releasing it on various platforms. And there's music by Chris Hülsbeck. I can give more info if you are interested.
@@ConsoleWars They have made an "enhanced" SNES version as well, which would probably be the fairer comparison. Though I admit, getting your hands on those cartridges may not be so easy. I _think_ those games may be included in the Steam version, but that's not the same as using the actual consoles. I know that a lot of the games that you compare are donated. I _might_ look into getting those cartridges myself, _maybe,_ but, as someone who doesn't own those consoles yet, no promises.
That's a shame. Piko Interactive is a horrid company that just plops products down with no care. Take note of their Glover "remaster" that released on steam last month for example.
@@cloudseven9041 Hey, they had an NES version of Jim Power built from scratch, and it looks fantastic. And someone who reviewed their Genesis cartridge version of that game said that it was designed properly, so as not to damage the cartridge slot. That said, I'm sure there may be some inconsistencies in quality from one product to another.
The best one is DynaBlaster! I remember I played that when I was a kid, really fun, on the Amiga. Today I have Mega Bomberman, but I have not played it much, but it seems like a very good game.
@@hubtubby Cool, it was my big brothers Amiga, there are some games I remember better than others, like Superfrog, Cannon Fodder, Pang, Super Skidmarks, Blues Brothers, a lot of games when I try to think about it actually, oh, Golden Axe I remember I really liked. Good times!
Bomberman 94/Mega Bomberman is often regarded among the top Hudson era games alongside Saturn Bomberman and Bomberman 2 for DS. I'd say all it's missing is a coop mode.
Going to have to disagree on the graphics. I admit that Super technically has more detail, but that doesn't mean it's good looking detail. To me it comes off a bit over done, like some of the CGI turned sprite attempts from the late 4th and early 5th gens. I think Mega's clean pixel graphics actually look way more appealing, and the stage variety and design just blows super's basic grid rooms away as far as visually interesting elements go.
If you play the PC Engine Original (PS3 Japan Only - use save state) of Mega Bomberman (Bomberman 94) there were Original Soundtrack (only stage 1 and stage 2) and some cut contents from different region (mostly cutscenes with other Bomberman featuring and showing the planet during final boss 3rd phases), stage select and ending Also haven’t mentioned about The European/PAL Box cover of Super Bomberman & Mega Bomberman
Special you're welcome to the Console Wars guys. Great video as usual. Hope you got my most recent package. Sorry I missed the premiere, I was helping some friends carry retaining wall blocks. 👎
Played a ton of Super Bomberman as a kid. Never knew Mega Bomberman existed, and I was a Sega kid at one point.. You can really see how Mega Bomberman influences Saturn Bomberman, probably the best one.
Great video as always! Your skits are always top notch! Kevin Conroy as Kirby is amazing! One thing I'd like to see in the future, is for you guys to normalize your audio. Different scenes had different volume levels. If you guys could fix that in the future, things would be perfect! ❤️
@@ConsoleWars When you're editing your videos, see if you can find an option to normalize the audio. That basically brings audio peaks down and valleys up. Making the volume more consistent. A better microphone would be great, but the issue I'm talking about is purely with editing. Content is amazing regardless though.
I never played a Bomberman game in my life, but had a lot of fun making this episode!
If you liked it, try the rest of SNES games. They are MUCH better than the first one
And it shows in your work my friend, great stuff.
What !? I remember there was an app that allowed net play on certain emulators. There was always people down to play Super Bomberman 2 (Or Tetris Attack) and I loved it. Bomberman games are great fun with friends especially if you can get 3 other people to play.

The games were fun in itself. It's a shame Super Bomberman 3-5 never left Japan, but had a plus playing the sequels on Emulators. I never new there was a Genesis Bomberman game which blew my mind! It looked fun was well. Another great episode!
Can't believe you guys got Ray Romano to guest star! This channel is really going places!
I see you have good taste in RUclips channels.

@@ConsoleWars and they take time to respond to the fans. I feel at home here. Thanks for the travel through time.
a little while ago i got suggested one of their old videos and i was absolutely ecstatic when i realized they were still uploading regular content
There's something about the style of these guys that makes this show feel like classic-era RUclips. It's great.
it's the lack of EPIC raid shadow legends content
Simple editing and random fun woth facts. They are enjoying youtube. Not making it a big puppet business.
This is true. It really feels like 2007 - 2009 youtube.
This would be a perfect episode for Turbografx guy to make a guest appearance.
Hah, That'd be awesome
Maybe they could save that for a What's the Difference episode about Mega Bomberman on Genesis and Bomberman 94 on Turbografx.
Then Bomberman CD could take the win.
Actually, I was kind of hoping for “Xbox 360” to show up so they could take a swipe at Bomberman: Act Zero.
@@pokepress
Act Zero was on the original Xbox. The 360 HD release was fairly solid.
- Super Bomberman vs. Mega Bomberman
- Super Turrican vs. Mega Turrican
You just gotta love that little details when it comes to old classic Nintendo vs. Sega rivalry.
You just can't make it more "VS." then having "Super vs. Mega" in the games titles.
Super SWIV vs Mega SWIV next?
Found this channel like 2 months ago binged watched all their old videos. Glad they're still making content.
Welcome to the channel!
Really happy to see Mega Bomberman win this one since I played that game a lot back in the day. The blue louie was always my favourite since you can briefly stun your opponents on battle mode if a bomb it kicks lands on them
My favorite Louie is purple
These guys videos are nonstop entertaining keep up the good work
Thank you!
That Ray Romano impression had me laughing like crazy

Me too, message to the channel's owners: You guys are probably going to get world famous the More impressions you guys do of celebrities.
You should have compared the Sega one with Super Bomberman 3. SMB3 could be considered as a Bomberman 94' port, so it is very similar to Mega Bomberman.
It's not. I have no idea what happened when porting to the SNES, but somehow it seems it could not handle the animation so they left the scrolling out. Even the MD is having a hard time to cope with all the little details that happened on Bomberman 94, so they left out half of the animations. At least the MD version scrolls.
looks like you two had a BLAST, what an EXPLOSIVE duel that can set the crowd ABLAZE....and definitely NOT formulaic at all!
Bomberman is one of my favorite franchises, mainly because it is so approachable by novice or non-gamers. IMO, Mega Bomberman story mode is the best of the 16-bit era... but... Super Bomberman 4 & 5 have the best battle modes hands down, making them the best party games.
Super Bomberman 4 i'd disagree, due to slowdowns that are a lot more present with all 5 players, and also, the movement is not quite fluid. Super Bomberman 5 improves over this and balances the mechanucs better than super 4 does. Although Bomberman '94 (also known as Mega bomberman and bomberman '08) is my favorite, it has less content, but it still feels smoother to move bomberman there. When i consider this, i'd Super Bomberman 5 and Bomberman '94/Mega Bomberman are the best options for battle mode for their time.
"Some stages on Sega go well beyond one screen!"
Uh, so did the Super Nintendo version...
*The sequel*
Oh.
"Check out the Game Over screens. On Sega, you see Bomberman all bandaged up."
Uh, in the Super Nintendo version, he's like a broken robot about to shut down permanently.
*That's the sequel*
Oh.
"You dont have to destroy all the enemies. Instead you have to destroy these keys."
You did the same thing in the Super Nintendo version.
*In the sequel*
Ughhh....
"The BEST exclusive item: A Louie!"
Louies are also-
*IN THE SEQUEL*
DAMNIT!!
I feel like the better comparison would have been Mega Bomberman and Super Bomberman 3,4, &5. Granted, Super Bomberman 3 -5 didn't come out in the USA, so I can see why you didn't compare them, but Mega Bomberman/Bomberman 94 & Super Bomberman 3-5 were all done in the same style. I absolutely love Super Bomberman 3-5 purely for the multiplayer battle mode. While Super Bomberman 1&2 may look and sound better, The level design in single player mode was much better in Super Bomberman 3-5 and the battlemode was epic (blowing away Super Bomber man and Mega Bomberman's battle mode).
I’m with you. My wife and I still enjoy playing 3-5 and 94. They just have so much character.
Super Bomberman 3 did come out in PAL regions, I played the crap out of it. So that one at least is available in English and would have been a better comparison.
Don’t have to go that far. Just Super Bomberman 2 would’ve been already a better choice for this episode, especially because it released closer to Mega Bomberman and it actually got an English release.
Even though I liked Super Bomberman 3-5, I missed the bigger, multi-screen levels of Super Bomberman 2. I know single screen levels are kind of a Bomberman tradition, but I think the Bomberman games that have bigger levels show a little more variety.
Please a video of The Jungle Book SNES & Genesis

Graphics have a slight edge on Genesis. The presentation has more in the Genesis game. Both games have their own unique styles of sound. Tie. Gameplay is just fine no matter which game you play. Tie. Sega has a slight edge in graphics and presentation. Both have good sound and gameplay in their own ways. Sega wins, but both are good ones. Super Street Fighter 2 is next.
I feel like if Graphics & Presentation were combined into a single category, many of the wins would shift across both systems.
although genesis music really sucks. if it had the snes great tunes, it would be awesome
As a kid I used to keep on renting Mega Bomberman all the time constantly going through the campaign and inviting my longtime best friend to play multiplayer. The kangaroo louie on the UK Megadrive boxart got me screaming for hype "I can ride an adorable kangaroo and kickass... THIS IS MY DREAM!"
I ended up buying Mega Bomberman cus i rented it so much, I also got Super Bomberman 1 and 2 which are great games to. I remember getting angry when my UK gaming mag mentioned the other awesome SNES sequels that I never got to play, then years later the emulator scene got popular and I fucking played the shiiiiit out of the SNES sequels at home or at school multiplayer.
That was the first time I'd ever seen the US boxart for the mega drive version. The UK definitely got the better version on that one.
Dan it's not ever worth it to team up with Pastrami! You won't feel like a winner after his oily payment. Great episode!
It's gotta feel like a mini vacation when the games are this different.
You guys are funny AF, so entertaining, Console Wars should have 1,000,000 subs easy! OK, ARE WE DOOOIN THIS!!?. . . .BTW, Dan, your Nirvana covers are awesome, you're a really talented singer and player.
Thank you so much!
I never knew that there was a Bomberman game in the Sega Genesis. So this is new to me. Thank you for this informative video of the Bomberman series.
I love that the "newest" console wars episode in the playlist is NOT the Bomberman episode, but instead a recap of the NY Giants' first round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft XD
Whoops. I'll fix that!
Interesting how the Saturn version keeps a lot of features from Genesis game.
Saturn Bomberman is actually a different bomberman game, but from what i heard, it was going to be a remake of Bomberman '94/Mega Bomberman, but eventually became a different (but also really great) bomberman game.
Excellent episode! Dare I say it was a... BLAST to watch?
Oh wow... after roughly 25 years I hear a few notes of the Mega Bomberman soundtrack again and instantly start humming the songs. I absolutely loved that game, even though the multiplayer killed one or two friendships. Thanks for this awesome Console Wars episode! It brought back many long lost memories.
Having Bobcat as Meta Knight cracked me up. I saw Mega Bomberman at a local game store fairly recently. I should've grabbed it.
Thanks for continuing to make awesome content!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was an unfair comparison. Mega Bomberman was a 1995 game with multiple titles before it to iterate upon. Super Bomberman 1 was a 1993 game, of course it was simpler. A fairer episode would’ve been Mega Bomberman vs Super Bomberman 2 (1994) for SNES. They’re both closer to each other’s launch. Comparing these two was like comparing Mortal Kombat 3 on Genesis vs Mortal Kombat 1 on SNES.
You literally described my thoughts! I completely agree with your opinion.
Genesis really wins overall, the real killer is the repetition and excessively simplistic nature of the SNES game.
Great episode as always!
Thanks!
Both games are real winners. Bomberman 4 President!
Yeah SNES version is a true classic nevertheless. And was my introduction to the franchise < 3
@@ChaoticHoly Many Afghanistan families would say he's already president lol
@@Vulpas Mean lol
fun trivia. Mega bomber man for the genesis is a port of Bomberman 94 for the pc-engine
Another great review guys! I think I'll join your patreon to see episodes a bit earlier than usual, they're that good!
Awesome thanks!
I hope Kevin Conroy comes back to review Super Street Funky Bunch II - that impression was spot on.
Man, you guys are a breath of fresh air, a call back to the old days of RUclips and retro game scene. Glad you guys are still making content. No clickbait, no algorithm chasing thumbnails and titles... Just buddies makin funny videos.
Thanks for the kind words!
I'm glad you guys pointed out the terrible music during Sega boss battles, it is distracting and semi painful during anotherwise awesome game
Not a port from PC, but from the PC-Engine.
Yup my bad
The Kirby movie making fun of a different video game movie made me laugh but not as much as Sega's reaction to it. You guys rock.
Something I appreciate about Console Wars compared to AVGN is how they actually look at the games.
Like the biggest example is Castlevania how the AVGN was already biased towards Super Castlevania compared to how Console Wars looked at both.
Well James does admit that he has the most sentimental value for the SNES since that's what he had as a kid. It's largely why I prefer the Genesis. I don't remember him making any videos that were supposed to be unbiased comparisons of games on different systems, so I don't see it as a big deal.
@@chitlitlah Actually his SNES vs Genesis vídeo is umbiased since SNES is a better console. About Castlevania he just had preference for one game over the other.
@@josemarques131 I forgot he made that. It wasn't an AVGN episode though. Also, it's Genesis > Turbografx > SNES.
@@josemarques131 Nah. For example, he dismisses BlastProcessing as pure marketing, ignoring that in fact Genesis games tend to have better framerate and more sprites in screen at once. The term is marketing, of course, but there was a tangible advantage of being a faster console overall behind that, and that's what Sega wanted to highlight with the advertisement. Not understanding something so simple shows a little fan blindness from AVGN in my opinion.
@@pepegrillo9722 I find that fan biased beliefs that Genesis has better performance kinda funny lol for sure come from people that don't know much and learn about videogames in sega fan channels though.
I personally think a better comparison would have been Super Bomberman 2 as it was released around the same time so it had many improvement in the single player mode.
Actually, the Super Bomberman has an introduction sequence, which was only available on the Japanese release for unknown reasons.
Good to know
And I have to say it would have been fairer to compare SB3 and MB, because they're closer games at gameplay and graphics. I know the third SB was released in Europe, but... Anyway, a good episode as always
@@jamesytez6639 They should, I also thought SB3 should been used in this episode since they used the same engine.
True
No.
Excellent vid! I still wait for Saturday Night Slam Masters, or 3 Ninjas Kick Back coverage!
I'm finally caught up. I've seen every episode from Aladdin to Bomberman, and I'm excited for the channel's future. Keep up the great work! 🎮

You forget that SNES destroys the Genesis with the Holy Four... Super Metroid, Final Fantasy 3 (FFVI), Chrono Trigger, and Link to the Past.
Really liked Mega Bomberman as a kid! Placed my bets on this one, though in my opinion, MB wins in the graphics department as well for its more "Bomberman-y" cartoon look and more vibrant color besides what was mentioned.
Glad that you're still around and posting top quality content as ever!
Thank you console wars for making such an amazing video if I probably ever suggested a game I would probably suggest flashback maybe
Hint: Super Street Fighter II on Genesis and SNES.
Genesis wins in cartridge size due to the mapper built-into the board, animation frames, number of voiceovers, and control layouts
I was just thinking yesterday when the next Console Wars episode was going to be and lo and behold here it is!
Great video as always!
Thanks bud!
Surprised you didn't talk about the bonus ending you get if you keep a Louie through the final boss.
I did not know that. Guess I got beat the game again
That might be something cool for them to try on the livestream.
?? from what I remember Bomberman offers his Rooi a ride on the jet and Rooi shakes his head like "I aint gettin' on no plane" and then the ending continues as normal, love that ending music though, it's got that Japanese/rave thing going on like Shinobi
I did enjoy Super Bomberman 1 & 2 but once Mega Bomberman released I honestly never went back to playing SB 1 or 2. With that said I do prefer Bomberman 94 on the PC Engine which Mega Bomberman was ported from as it has better graphics, graphical effects (see underwater stage), colors & none of the slowdown found in Mega Bomberman. For this comparison Mega Bomberman wins. Just my opinion
But wouldn't it be fairer to compare Mega Bomberman with Super Bomberman 2? Considering they were both released in 1994?
Exactly my thoughts
They tend to compare first with first, even when there is only one in a particular system
@@DGFTardin ah I hadn't realized that!
To be fair, Mega Bomberman is a port of Bomberman 94, which was released in 1993
Those games were donated to us so that's what we compared
I finally got around to watching this. Great episode guys. Personally my exposure to "Bomberman" was in an commercial for one of his games either on Playstation or N64, which also had a reworking of the "Spider-Man" theme song. Also really got a kick out of the "Kirby" trailer, you celebrity impressions were really good here. Even though I haven't really played much "Bomberman", I think we can agree on one thing, both these games were way better than "Bomberman: Act Zero". LOL
That was the commercial for Bomberman 64.
Here's a suggestion for another Console Wars episode. It would be interesting to see you two do a 32-bit and 64-bit game for change.
Fighting Vipers for the Sega Saturn vs Mace: The Dark Age for the Nintendo 64
Even if I have a softer spot for Super Bomberman 1, I placed my bets for Mega Bomberman in that episode. :P
While SB1 is a more accessible game difficulty-wise, and the co-op mode is a sweet addition...MB has more features, more variety, and the multiplayer AI isn't stupidly dumb.
...oh...and btw : Super Bomberman 1 actually has an intro...in the Japanese version.
It's still available in the Western releases, but for some reason...the game will never show it normally. You need to enter a Pro Action Replay code to watch it. :/
Yeah, there are also censorships and color/sprite differences. If you're playing Super Bomberman for Snes make sure it's the japanese version
lol omg jap super bomberman has an intro so that evens up the odds. never knew that. thats cool. and besides the other bombermans get better and are better on the snes. sadly all jap exclusives tho after bomberman 2. and the gameplay is simple in every bomberman game. exception being bomberman 64 and those games on nintendo 64. so thats kinda biased. mega bomber is a port of turbografx game. which was epic. played both and love both tho so im sure if snes got it it can do the same if given the chance..
@@ssppeeaarr The third Super Bomberman got a European release, but not in North America. I dunno why...
@@Diddy64wii ya i heard about that. wish it got released for usa too. since that was when the series got a design overhaul and took more elements from bomberman 94 n mega. with included the louies. just amazing on snes. we got our turbo port at least lol. sad i only learned of it years later on emulation.
that game would have been a much more fair comparison in this video.
Awesome and super funny as always! You guys make my day
I feel blessed to have your content available to enrich so many people's lives. Thank you so much for your work🍻
Thanks so much! We feel blessed when we get such nice comments!
Years in the damn making here! A Bomberman episode!!
I started collecting Turbografx games after I became an adult and could afford them and Bomberman 93 and 94 became two of my favorite games ever. My friends and I played them a lot when they came over. It looks like the Genesis version is a very similar port, with perhaps the biggest difference that the TG-16 version supported five players instead of four. The SNES version apparently went its own way and made a different game instead of a straight port, and most of the differences make it inferior. It makes me want to hook up the Turbografx right now and play it.
I have '94 for the PC Engine. It was the first game I picked up. I absolutely love it, and 5 player with the multitap is a blast. I think it beats Super Bomberman in both color and sound, the PC Engine looks and sounds better than the Genesis in my opinion. For the SFC, Super Bomberman 4 is the best in my opinion, though 5 is also great. I don't own that one, but I.....have ways to play it. I do, however, own Saturn Bomberman, and it's by far the best. I only have 1 multitap, so 7 players is the max, but that's always been plenty.
Bomberman '94 is also my favorite, i dont quite agree Super 4 being the best when it comes to battle mode
back in the day at a local rental store people could rent this game with the Multi Tap Also. i would rent this along with Tiny Toon's Sport's to have a good time with my friends.
cool
I absolutely loved your episode! Excited to see Super Street Fighter II episode soon!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love how you attempted to settle this with a real life Bomberman battle, and both of you used your best features to try and finish each other off. As for the rest of you, don't try this at home.
I've always liked the battle mode in Super Bomberman 1 more than 2 as the gloves in 2 made it allot more unbalanced in my opinion. However the story mode in Super Bomberman 2 is allot more fun even though it's only single player.
Another good video to the series. The bits at the start and end of the video really do well comedy wise and the layout for your own Bomber Man level was a nice detail to things. Good work as ever.
Thank you!
I'm still an active Bomberman player, I have played their games for years and I can say that currently my favorite Bomberman games are Bomberman 1 for NES, Super Bomberman 1 for SNES, Bomberman 1991 for TGX-16 (knowing in Europe as DynaBlaster) and Neo Bomberman for Neo Geo/Arcade, the reason is because these are the least stylized games on the franchise, but I feel that minimalism is precisely what touches up the most in the charm of the playable base without much added, in addition to the fact that its semi-3D rustic lookin style is very nostalgic for me.
RUclips recommended me this video and I'm loving these guys. Nintendo vs sega. Which game is better? Interesting concept and I love the little skits even though they are cheesy. I wanna see more
Welcome to the channel. We're all about embracing our cheeseyness
Could you imagine Pat and Dan covering Bombergirl? (Yeah, that one.)
Still a good episode, with a comeback for Sega after the last episode... hope the upcoming _Super Street Fighter II_ episode does just as well, if not better (assuming we are talking baseline cartridges and not the romhack for the Genesis version.)
you have just reminded me of bombergirl again and i will never forgive you
The right version definitely won. Mega Bomberman is only second to Saturn Bomberman.
Mega Bomberman is a port of a PC Engine game, Bomberman 94, and it's actually better on the PC Engine (like it has 5 player multiplayer instead of 4 players like on the SNES and Mega Drive). So I wouldn't say mega bomberman is unique, because it looks and plays exactly like the PC Engine version. It's just a port. Not its own game.
You guys are so super talented! Those impressions are really good!
Mega Bomberman is a port of Bomberman 94 for TurboGrafx-16. Those are obviously not the 2 systems this series compares, but it would have made far more sense to compare those. Perhaps when you've done all of the SNES & Genesis comparisons you can compare other consoles? I'd love to see that, as there are many more possibilities. Master System vs. NES, Game Boy vs. Game Gear and Atari 2600 vs. Intellivision are just a few examples that would be great (although that last one would no doubt result in much shorter videos as there would obviously be less to talk about.)
Couldn't agree more
It would have been total unfair. BM94 is the best Bomberman ever. It is just perfect. More colours, way better animation with tons of little details added, and the OST is bonkers. The MD soundtrack is very limited in comparison.
@@2kBofFun the snes bombermans are epic. especially the later games. the genesis did well considering its sucessor on the turbografx. its a decent port. its great but i think saturn bomberman takes the title for the best 90s bomberman game. but i still enjoy the games on other consoles like turbo and snes and genesis.
even the handheld gba ones are pretty neat.
@@ssppeeaarr The Snes versions were prety bad. Ugly graphics, no scrolling worlds, so-so music. Saturn Bomberman is just very very similar to BM94, as if Hudson finally agreed on a decent non PCE version after the demise of the platform. It is in no way better. Well ok, the bass sound is fuller and deeper, but on the other hand the music is a little less catchy and the unicorn hamsters are a strange offspring to the kangeroos in BM94. And the 10 player battle? Come on, who has 9 friends to play with? And the tiny sprites and lack of atmosphere ruin the battle experience.
@@2kBofFun abit biased for the turbogfx bomberman. which is fine. its a an epic game. lol. but to put down the snes games is dishonest! with super bomberman 3 on snes actually taking more influence from the turbo and mega bomberman. it had the intros. after stage animations. and even had the louies and had graphical downgrade to fit those games aesthetic. i prefer the look of super bomberman and 2. but super bomberman 3 that particular game would have been more fair to use in this console war vid. its basically snes port of bomberman 94. showin that stuff can be done on snes as well. and also the tunes from all snes bombermans are catchy and great. they suite the game worlds and set the atmosphere.
u prob just hate snes bro. lol.
and saturn bomberman which is considered by many fans of the series to be the best iteration of the genre. the iconic intro movie and music. the graphics are gorgeous. the stages are amazing and have extended parts have amazing animations. the music is atmospheric to each world. the samurai world for example. then the louies are absent here but instead we get dino like louies. which is cool dare say better then louies. lmao. its not a deal breaker. but they have similar powers so its not that a big deal. also something i enjoy'd was the master mode. also bomberman is dress like goku. lol its epic.
but ya to each his own. i have tons of fav bomberman games. its hard to pick one as best of em all. but saturn bomber is deff in top 3. along with bomberman 94 and dreamcast bomberman.
I can't believe they got THE Bobcat Goldthwait
Good episode, favorite part has to be the ending battle. A bit of a closer battle than I would've thought, I guess super bomberman did have some things that gave mega bomberman a run for its money.
It's been a while since I last commented because I didn't really have any suggestions, but this time I came up with a few
- Art of Fighting (SNES vs. Genesis)
- World Heroes (SNES vs. Genesis)
- Death and Return of Superman (SNES vs. Genesis)
- There are enough Spider-man games for at least 3 episodes with Spider-Man (based on the animated series), Spider-Man and Venom: Separation Anxiety, and Spider-Man: Lethal Foes (SNES) vs. Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin/Spider-Man (Genesis)
- I also had an idea for a series similar to What's the Difference? called Console Wars: Pocket, where you could breifly look at comparable games from competing handheld systems outside the typical formula. This could be a solution to the issue of covering Gameboy vs. Game Gear games, where you could explicitly leave out the graphics comparison.
That CGI for the Kirby movie is INCREDIBLE! I would swear there's a physical object on the screen!! 😮
lol
It's been such a long time since I've seen a video like this, and even longer since I've seen a GOOD one. Very informative and chill, most importantly great comparison, nothing overly negative or nitpicky. Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
next console wars you should do is Micro-Machines SNES vs Genesis
Tough choice, but SNES wins for the exclusive 4-player mode
red ryder bb 🔫 - the similar feeling I get when I see an alert for Console Wars
I was worried you guys weren't going to mention the multiplayer modes on either game. That's what Bomberman is really known for.
You deserve milion of views ! From a big italian fan!
Thank you!
I played so much bomberman throughout the years, in different consoles. Really nostalgic. And the genesis one looks really fun!
22:54 Look closely and you'll see the ends of the Louie egg before the block disappears.
This is the most explosive episode you have made so far and I had a blast watching it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@ConsoleWars Thanks. :) Have you guys done Aero the Acrobat?
WHAT?! THAT'S IT! Are we doing this?
Is another console wars episode on right now? Yes
By the way, the original game, Bomberman '94 is for the PC Engine, not the PC. PC Engine is the Japanese Turbografx.
I know i know. I always do that
Whoa, Sega's on a roll lately! Was not expecting a Kirby movie sketch to begin with but it segued into the main part of the video very smoothly. My friend had a copy of Super Bomberman 1 back in the day and I remember enjoying Battle Mode a lot. You're right that the i-frames after respawning were ridiculous though. No wonder I didn't notice most of the sequels, since they weren't released here in the West. I'd forgotten Mega Bomberman ever existed and maybe didn't even notice it at the time, but you guys made a great case for the core 1-player campaign being light years ahead of the Nintendo version. Can hardly wait for the next episode!
Robert "Bobcat" Goldthwait as Meta Knight?
*_SOLD!!!!!_*
my future console wars suggestions: Super Mario World vs Sonic The Hedgehog,
Pinocchio,
Bubby 2,
Remake Aladdin,
Top Gear 2,
Super Mario Bros vs Sonic The Hedgehog(NES vs MS),
Fatal Fury 2,
Mr Nutz
When they don't compare the right games.
Compare Super Bomberman 3 with Mega bomberman, they be almost identical art style but different games.
Also about Super Bomberman Final Boss has 2 phases and the final Phase if he runs over you you die aswell
Kevin Conroy as Kirby? I'd watch that!
Another suggestion, I'd like to draw your attention to a game with an interesting backstory: Jim Power. Originally a Commodore Amiga game, it officially had an SNES version (that I have played on the original hardware). There was a Genesis version in development, but wasn't finished... until recently. Piko Interactive bought the rights to it, and after some modifications, have been working on re-releasing it on various platforms. And there's music by Chris Hülsbeck.
I can give more info if you are interested.
Yeah, that's been suggested. I have the SNES game. Just not sure how fair a comparison it would be.
@@ConsoleWars They have made an "enhanced" SNES version as well, which would probably be the fairer comparison. Though I admit, getting your hands on those cartridges may not be so easy. I _think_ those games may be included in the Steam version, but that's not the same as using the actual consoles.
I know that a lot of the games that you compare are donated. I _might_ look into getting those cartridges myself, _maybe,_ but, as someone who doesn't own those consoles yet, no promises.
That's a shame. Piko Interactive is a horrid company that just plops products down with no care. Take note of their Glover "remaster" that released on steam last month for example.
@@cloudseven9041 Hey, they had an NES version of Jim Power built from scratch, and it looks fantastic. And someone who reviewed their Genesis cartridge version of that game said that it was designed properly, so as not to damage the cartridge slot.
That said, I'm sure there may be some inconsistencies in quality from one product to another.
I love SB3 till this day, i`m glad people like AVGN, SNESdrunk and you guys are still here
Thanks for the video! I missed out on Bomberman during the 16-bit era, unfortunately.
Same. This was the first time i ever played a Bomberman game
cannot believe this was only made one year ago. that is WILD
An interesting choice with a great ending. Keep the WAR up!!!
The Ray Romano bit is just pure gold.
I was actually suprised that there is an Bomberman game for the Sega Genesis. Great Episode as always! Keep on improving and enjoy living! ;D
Thanks, you too!
The best one is DynaBlaster! I remember I played that when I was a kid, really fun, on the Amiga. Today I have Mega Bomberman, but I have not played it much, but it seems like a very good game.
Same here, Amiga 500!
@@hubtubby Cool, it was my big brothers Amiga, there are some games I remember better than others, like Superfrog, Cannon Fodder, Pang, Super Skidmarks, Blues Brothers, a lot of games when I try to think about it actually, oh, Golden Axe I remember I really liked. Good times!
Bomberman 94/Mega Bomberman is often regarded among the top Hudson era games alongside Saturn Bomberman and Bomberman 2 for DS.
I'd say all it's missing is a coop mode.
I know it was meant as a joke, but Hollywood needs to greenlight that Kirby movie. It already looks much better than anything they would make.
Totally not formulaic!
There should be more of these guys around XD though, their interactions are so funny, especially the ending sequence
Glad you enjoy it!
Going to have to disagree on the graphics. I admit that Super technically has more detail, but that doesn't mean it's good looking detail. To me it comes off a bit over done, like some of the CGI turned sprite attempts from the late 4th and early 5th gens. I think Mega's clean pixel graphics actually look way more appealing, and the stage variety and design just blows super's basic grid rooms away as far as visually interesting elements go.
Next episode of console wars: super street fighter 2
If you play the PC Engine Original (PS3 Japan Only - use save state) of Mega Bomberman (Bomberman 94) there were Original Soundtrack (only stage 1 and stage 2) and some cut contents from different region (mostly cutscenes with other Bomberman featuring and showing the planet during final boss 3rd phases), stage select and ending
Also haven’t mentioned about The European/PAL Box cover of Super Bomberman & Mega Bomberman
Special you're welcome to the Console Wars guys. Great video as usual. Hope you got my most recent package. Sorry I missed the premiere, I was helping some friends carry retaining wall blocks. 👎
No worries! Glad you enjoyed it! I got the package thanks!
And thanks again for the Bomberman games!
Played a ton of Super Bomberman as a kid. Never knew Mega Bomberman existed, and I was a Sega kid at one point..
You can really see how Mega Bomberman influences Saturn Bomberman, probably the best one.
Great video as always! Your skits are always top notch! Kevin Conroy as Kirby is amazing!
One thing I'd like to see in the future, is for you guys to normalize your audio. Different scenes had different volume levels. If you guys could fix that in the future, things would be perfect! ❤️
I know. I'm so bad with the audio. The voiceovers and live stuff are different. I need a better mic for my camera
@@ConsoleWars When you're editing your videos, see if you can find an option to normalize the audio. That basically brings audio peaks down and valleys up. Making the volume more consistent.
A better microphone would be great, but the issue I'm talking about is purely with editing. Content is amazing regardless though.
