My dad used to drive a trash truck and around 10-ish years ago he came home with a plastic bag filled with Snes games the console and controllers etc needless to say it was the awesomest thing EVER and I played it for hours on end when he brought it home, I still have it in a shoebox in my closet and every now and then a take it out just for some Super mario World and kirby all those classics I wasn't around when the system was in it's prime ( I came in towards the end of the saturn/ps1 era) it is still although being around 20yrs old the coolest game system in my opinion ( the dreamcast being a close second)
CHINA GONGETYA duh the number is still the same for the Nintendo service center they just stopped putting the number in back its smaller with a modern look
I knew Nintendo's Number since Late 2008 - Early 2009 because I've been a Nintendo Fan since the GameCube and Game Boy Advance Era (Since Early 2005) I even put their numbers in my Contacts Last chance since I still love Nintendo to this Day and I still remember the Number by Heart Jesus Christ it's been 15 Years since I've been a Nintendo Fan
Still got my SNES from my 90's childhood with a good collection of games! I play it often b/c It's refreshing to get off the PS3/4 or PC/MAC and just play some good old classics! It's funny to see friends struggle with my SNES games when the current games they play are extremely complicated compared to Zelda or Mario World!
I remember when I got my first SNES console for Christmas. I was so mesmerized by the new console scent after opening it up. I think I was around 13 years old at the time. Those were amazing happy years. All my friends and I had subscriptions to Nintendo Power magazine and those mags were great once upon a time. I played Mario World sooo much, everyday. I was addicted to the beautiful graphics, sound and excellent play control. I still have it. Fond memories and still fun to play today.
I remember marveling at the Super NES when I first saw it back around '91 at my friend's house. It's my favorite console of all time ...Sorry but I have to disagree. I think the Super NES is the cleanest and best or 2nd best looking console ever. Also, despite being a simple design, I love the look and feel of the SNES controller. The original NES and its controllers were boring-looking; the SNES brought some style and sturdiness into Nintendo products.
+G Ryen Well if Nintendo of America used the original Super Famicom design, the Snes would be a LOT more awesome. I never liked the for little kids-like design of the Snes.
+G Ryen I believe the SNES would have looked even better with the Japanese/European style case. The SNES also was the very first console with L & R (shoulder buttons) on the top of the controller, years before SEGA Saturn,Sega Dreamcast, Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, PS Vita, and even PSP.
@@PointReflex Let's agree to disagree. The super Nintendo looks so sleek And if you want a North American super Nintendo to look like a super Famicom they made a cheaper revision.
When I first tried out gaming as a child, I used the Gameboy. But the Super Nintendo was when my love for video games truly began. I've started long-lasting relationships with iconical franchises, and all of them started on this console. Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong Country, Metroid and Final Fantasy, to name a few. The Super Nintendo will always be my favorite console of them all. It's a shame my old cables don't work anymore. Oh well, time to get them for Virtual Console.
This thing is a tank!!! After months of begging my parents for one back in 1992, I finally got one...and after years of collecting games then sadly growing up and moving on, my 5 year old daughter is now playing and enjoying my old SNES!! She's better at Mario world than I was...lol
Triforce....haha. that's good. Man, with so many great games, that is a great question of what everyone's "Triforce" would be. I think mine would have to be: Super Metroid, Final Fantasy III, Yoshi Island II. (How can I leave out Zelda?) man, this is hard.....
Good for you man, I got my copy for about $30 and I’d say it’s average price is $40. If I was you I’d peep the mom and pop stores or eBay, they don’t always have everything but if you’re patient you can get what you want in time for a better price if you’re willing to wait and look
had the n64 as a kid, picked up n64,genesis, nes, and a snes recently to start a small collection of cartridge games and the super nintendo has jumped to the top of my list so far
My favorite console of all time right here. As for whether it's prettier in North America or everywhere else is all based on taste. Personally I grew up with the grey and purple. So I'll take that anyday for nostalgic reasons. My opinion
That’s because the PAL version is just a Super Famicom. Although the PAL version looks the same as a Japanese Super Famicom, Japanese carts will not work in a PAL console and vice versa while Japanese carts will work in a US SNES.
Sadly, I no longer have my Super Nintendo. I still have my SEGA Genesis and play it regularly. But Fortunately for me, whatever SNES games I want to play, I easily have access to from my Wii. AND I have both Super Mario Advance 2 and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past for the GBA. I always have spare copies and I hold no regrets :D
I wasn't born in this generation of consoles, but after playing both systems I decided to go for Sega. The controller is just so much nicer for me, and although in the UK the SNES looks a lot better then the North American SNES, it still looks kind of dull compared to the Mega Drive. I definitely prefer Sonic over Mario too... Just my opinion guys! Nintendo is still amazing as well!
***** I'll be playing games (real consoles) for a long time when i get a bunch of consoles. Any console that breaks after me playin then im repairing it.
thx for this awesome review,im going to buy at least a used snes, since i desperately sold mine way back 1996, to buy a ps1. ill put it on display for my other console collection. and play it aswell fr. tym to tym :)
I didn't grow up with this console but I bought this yesterday and it's amazing. I bought Super Return of the Jedi,Super Bomberman,And A Link to the Past. I love it.
I got my Super Nintendo from a friend, For Free, and the cool thing is not only can you use the AV cord from a Nintendo 64 on it, but the power cable from a NES as well.
3:30 right there, that moment when you push that flip thing down, I could smell the plastic and the heat of the catridge after taking if off the console after hours of play... hmmm, nostalgia.
I got one a few months ago, and I really want to expand my library. I only have Star Fox, Super Gameboy, Super Empire Strikes Back,, Tetris 2, and Super Mario Kart.
The purple buttons slid forward so you could throw your controller at them when you cried out in SFII in 2P versus mode. I was adept in both resetting the system and turning it off with a good controller throw on the rare occasion I was beaten. SFII and those SNES controllers arguably were the best fighting game plus hardware of all time.
I actually had the Super Nintendo when I was little i love it a lot i use to play mario games with my baby sister and my mom it was a badass system but after that i got the nintendo 64
I still have my Super NES system and it works just fine. The only games that I had gotten rid of years back were Beavis-N-Butthead & Super Punch Out. I still have the rest of my games such as Super MarioWorld, Wario's Woods, SuperMario Kart, Ken Griffey Jr.'s Baseball, Monopoly, Street Fighter II, Jurassic Park & Super Tennis.
The reason it is blocky is because in America focus groups figured out that in the US large, blocky and somewhat minimalistic consoles seemed to sell really well.
i honestly like the rf out better because you can plug in as many as you wanna and not have to worry about unpluging some other shit from the back of my vcr if lower audio/video quality is what it takes for me not to have to go through all that trouble then so be it.
I remember getting a cart copier from Japan and renting games and copying them to a floppy disk and then one could play them for the cost of a rental, ha ha. That cart copier paid for itself after about 3 or 4 rentals. Killer system. I grew up on an Atari 5200 then a Commodore 128 computer but I also had an SNES and a Sega Genesis. Both are still great consoles to this day.
I think it looks weird too. I grew up in the UK, and our SNES was styled like the Super Famicom, which looks pretty cool. When I came here to the States and saw the US version, I was baffled.
They designed it that way because when the NES came out it had a flat top and people would set their drinks on it, and they would often spill into the console and break it. So when they were making the SNES they made it so you can't set anything on top of it.(:
The design they had in Japan and PAL regions and everywhere else is definitely more sleek and attractive while the US snes looks like an 80s printer... however it's very hardy and well built and it's controller has those nice dented y and x buttons which I wish we had in the UK
Hi, I just bought a used SNES, and I was wondering, which games should I get? I already have StarFox, and I also like games like Super Mario World. Thanks in advance! :)
I still dont have one, which i am dying for one. But LUCKILY, I can get one at a store in a mall nearby. It sells ONLY old game consoles and their games. I cant wait until i can get one! I am a large nintendo fan and I don't know if you would ever see someone like this, begging for a SNES today. XD
"Relatively easy to collect for these days"

that phone support number is fully working and functional they still offer support for this console, crazy
Yeah my friend and I found the number on the back of my Game Boy and we called it. Really surprised us when they answered XD
+Frøya Plays i think im gonna call them to suggest them to make an nes flashback console that is the nes top loader with the av multi out
CHINA GONGETYA duh the number is still the same for the Nintendo service center they just stopped putting the number in back its smaller with a modern look

Im snes and I know what 9 is
*I'm 9 and I know about snes
it was meant to be a joke a think aimed at all the kids who make comments about their age compared to a product
the snes is beyond my time, because I'm ten and the nes is more, well my generation
Same
Eams
The European/Australian version looks much more attractive than the US version in my opinion
i just like how you straight-up said europe (a continent) and then a country, as if Oceania doesn't exist.
@@therealtrue842 But the American SNES can play Japanese Superfamicom games
u mean PAL? the rest of the world except for both Americas is like dis

Give me $10,000 and we'll se how it goes >:D
(Translation: Not in a million years. Sorry!)
Can i have the spare copies? I can subscribe your channel.
Sorry, not for sale :( But subscribing is also a good option XD
Btw you can hack your wii to play nes, Gba, Snes, Genesis and more for free
"the unnatractive but works well console"
great line karnage
@animeswl46 There's also an SNES emulator for the DS, PC, Mac, Linux, iPhone, Android, Wii ...
The european version of the snes looks way better
Every version looks better.
+Freddy's Jeugdsentiment But the NA SNES can take any SNES/SFC cartridge with a simple mod of snapping out the 2 tabs.
No it doesn't
Freddy's Jeugdsentiment were so lucky lol (I'm from Europe)

Just my opinion guys! Nintendo is still amazing as well!
sonic the hedgehog 2 is one of my favorite platformers of all time
were you born when the wii came out tho?
I love the Super Nintendo look.
Our European shell is superior
did console like this back in the day get warm when you play it for awhile
4:05 see the bottom of the catridge, some catridge have extra PCB both side (left and right) is for saving game or memory card (SNES version)
I still have my Super Nintendo :p
And I still have a Sega Mega Drive
@@greatvegetables I still have my SNES too.
I prefer the SNES!
Last part lol

yes just make sure you have the red white and yellow connectors or a coax or you get a composite video adapter to HDMI that will work to.
Who is a game collector like me?
***** I have over 10 consoles and i have over 100 games.
***** nope
I am but im just starting
Jon Gustafson Same here

Hahaha awesome video!! Gotta love the SUPER Nintendo...emphasis on super. Love the ending! So funny!
Nostalgia. My first game console.
thx for this awesome review,im going to buy at least a used snes, since i desperately sold mine way back 1996, to buy a ps1. ill put it on display for my other console collection. and play it aswell fr. tym to tym :)
Just bought one today, it came with Super Mario World. SO MUCH FUN!
My first console. Omg. Had so many good moments with it. Nostalgia.
I didn't grow up with this console but I bought this yesterday and it's amazing. I bought Super Return of the Jedi,Super Bomberman,And A Link to the Past. I love it.
I might think about buying a SNES Console.
Is it a good idea.
The number of NES cartridges that are difficult to remove, that Eject button was a nice idea. Shame it wasn't in the original NES
I got my Super Nintendo from a friend, For Free, and the cool thing is not only can you use the AV cord from a Nintendo 64 on it, but the power cable from a NES as well.
is that song in the background from hot wheels stunt track driver? if not, it uses the exact same percussion sound bytes.
i love all of your video's i will just sit here for hours on end watching them keep it up!!! :)
@alih92 go to any old flea market or there is sights where you can buy refurbished ones.
@muiscnight oh i just remembered on the super nentendo the plug in part will get warm the the consle
I owned an SNES, my cousin had a Genesis - we would play one or the other depending on whose house we were at. Good times.
the nintendo gamecube also uses the same a/v cables as the n64/super nes.
i'd do that too but i lack space & money,so i look around to see if they ported or remade any classic games onto what i have
3:30 right there, that moment when you push that flip thing down, I could smell the plastic and the heat of the catridge after taking if off the console after hours of play... hmmm, nostalgia.

There is a type-o in the discription, it says: Genesis, Sega CD or 32S (Rather than 32X)
have you seen the retro-bit sega genesis adapter for snes?
it supposedly lets you play genesis games through your snes. sounds crazy i know!
I got one a few months ago, and I really want to expand my library. I only have Star Fox, Super Gameboy, Super Empire Strikes Back,, Tetris 2, and Super Mario Kart.

@cryax2138 And it would be really easy with the campaign, considering you don't have to obtain two discs to see both games.
You can get a Super Nintendo on Amazon. Some Amazon sellers will ship to Norway.
I'm glad your SNES is still factory white :)
I had to spray mine because it was yellow as hell
@TheBananaPhone1 Do my snes cartridges (=that look like nintendo 64) play in the snes that there is in the picture???
I loved the way it looked!
i love your videos! You have a great voice for narrating
5:17
What's that little tab to the top left that looks like it can be pulled out?
i still have one of thies and in good shape still playing it right now
@tom5677 yep my super Nintendo still works but the thingy part that goes in da back is a little messed up but my dad fixed just like that
@CanadianChronic2121 which i will do hopefully starting next month.planning on starting my SNES collection soon :) yeah that will be fun
@HylianChozo Earthbound was not at the store,
What's that connector slot under the cover on the bottom of the console that says "ext"? I was never able to figure out since i was a kid.. lol
how come you never reviewed the supaboy?
I actually had the Super Nintendo when I was little i love it a lot i use to play mario games with my baby sister and my mom it was a badass system but after that i got the nintendo 64
No wonder my favorite colors since I was 5 have been black, purple and gray.
jeez i remember in 5th grade my friends brought his snes in his backpack to school for some reason
Though this comes late but how about an add-on for both systems to play each others games
I just bought my first SNES complete in box today I'm very happy with the console
I think the D Pad on the sega Genesis is better ' but the snes has more buttons initially
Ahh the good old days of gameing, from genesis to SNES to even the TG16 . They had something for everyone .
u know CGR, have u ever done a comparason of Halo: Combat Evolved for the Xbox with the new and improved Halo: CE Anniversary for the Xbox 360?
My first console ever, i love this thing!
@xxXYoAriYoXxx I'm responding to a guy who said there's an emulator on the PSP.
Description typo: Could you find Super Metroid on the Genesis, Sega CD or {32S}? It's supposed to be 32X.
yea the pal looks to plain the purple buttons on the SNES makes it look bettter imo.
I used to use an EG switch for a while until I realized that the snes,n64,and gcn used the same AV cables.
hey mark i noticed you don't have a review for Killer Instinct
Whats that little gate underneath the snes?
@Terryracoon they are actually doing it then? i thought that was just a rumor at the moment
good I have both should I sell them both and the games for a vectrex
I still have my Super NES system and it works just fine. The only games that I had gotten rid of years back were Beavis-N-Butthead & Super Punch Out. I still have the rest of my games such as Super MarioWorld, Wario's Woods, SuperMario Kart, Ken Griffey Jr.'s Baseball, Monopoly, Street Fighter II, Jurassic Park & Super Tennis.
The reason it is blocky is because in America focus groups figured out that in the US large, blocky and somewhat minimalistic consoles seemed to sell really well.
I don't think attractiveness matters too much for a game console. What matters the most to me is how well it works and what games it has.
Hwo do you spell/find that snes/sega gamepad you mentioned (sounded like "nukattack")?
Had both super nes & genesis. Loved them both.
i honestly like the rf out better because you can plug in as many as you wanna and not have to worry about unpluging some other shit from the back of my vcr if lower audio/video quality is what it takes for me not to have to go through all that trouble then so be it.
haha, that ending. this show rules.
PS3 games (they have games?) fit perfectly in the SNES too.
I bought a refurbished SNES a few months ago, and I love it.
I laughed so hard when he fit the AC2 box into the SNES slot.
Oh, I wish I still had mine. I'm going to buy one when I get the money.
@Rickeraswell01 No laser to burn out. All cartridge based.
@Tiscali1981 The European one looked more like the Super Famicom so the North American version is probably the redesign
