The very first time I ever seen this Super Famicom was when my mother took me to NYC Bellevue Hospital and at there news stand she got me a gaming magazine to read as I was waiting for my mother's check up and on the issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly Presents The 1991 Video Game Buyer's Guide. And after I got the SNES in 1991 I found a Super Famicom in Chinatown sometime in 94 with a bunch of game carts cheap. My back story on the SNES was when I gone to an high school in Pennsylvania call Devereux Mapleton School I've stay there for 4 years from 91 to 94 in fact my after we came back from our the prom night on June 17, 1994 we all came back on the TV news we all was watching OJ being chase from the police cars in the highway live. Anyway in 91 as a me and my school friends gone to the King of Prussia's Electronic Boutique there I got the SNES with the Super Mario World Pack-in game.

The first time I had a Super Nintendo is when I was in Elementary School. I had an SNES and I remember playing Wheel of Fortune Deluxe Edition for that system. I saw Mario is Missing, and the person at the information desk was Princess Daisy but with her NES Open Tournament Golf Colors in the SNES version.

Hands down, the Nintendo systems were the best things of my childhood. Growing up mostly poor, working from the age of 5 on the road with my Pops on a carnival, I didn't have too much to look forward to, possession wise. My dad made sure that every year, every birthday and Christmas, I had some new videogame or the new Nintendo as it as it came out. This is the first year without my Pops, as he died from Covid complications on Fathers Day. The holidays are coming up quick, and nothing brings back the happier times than thinking back to my Pops--having busted his ass to obtain whatever Nintendo product was available--watching me play. Super Mario World was one that he himself picked up, time and time again. The game holds a pretty special place in my heart. Those were good moments.

Sorry to hear that. I'm from a working class background without a lot of money but in a stable situation. My grandpa also built a house from the mid 60s on. He died last October. My classmates often thought my parents must have much money. But we (my older brother and me) didn't. We just saved money on other things and our relatives gave us money or games of our wishes on holidays.

They should be celebrating his 30yr birthday as he is now 30 as that's when he first appeared, in 1990, because that's how long he has been around for.

I made my first initial investment of $3,000 with him, which earned me a total profit of $30,540. I was shocked by the gains I made in my first Trade.

I have loved lots of consoles over the years, but I've never had as much affection for one as I do the SNES. Just such a landmark machine that felt like really moved gaming forwards. And it had such an amazing library of games that made me realise that games could do more than I had thought possible. I had really enjoyed many games before, but none immersed me in the game like all the great adventure and RPG games. Its even better now that we can access the Japan only releases with translations. I've recently been playing the fairly new translations for Ganbare Goemon 2 and 3. It's fantastic getting to enjoy these games. I still play SNES at least a couple of times each week.

I'll never forget the first time I saw Super Mario World in a gaming magazine and was absolutely confounded by the weird tomato looking Goombas. The article even said "we'll have all the juicy details" and somehow my mind connected the dots that he would be fighting vegetables in the game. I still don't get why they changed the overall look of the most iconic mook and then just changed it back the second they had another game that used the characters. I know now that they're technically different characters, sure. Also, the grainy, ultra-bright pictures made it look like swimming Mario was actually riding a little boat. I'll always in the back of my mind be a little disappointed that Mario wasn't fighting salad monsters in his little tugboat when I finally got to play the game.

And a lot of them they changed back. I will never understand the round Goombas or rather Galoombas. I guess they just wanted to change the squishy, mushroom like Goombas that you stomp on to something you carry and throw like a Koopa shell. Seems in recent years they decided to make them a different species. Then they were never seen again until some more recent games because squishy Goombas are more iconic to the game series.

i don't think kids today will quite grasp the advancements in console content. kids who grew up with xbox and later consoles will pretty much see similar graphics as time goes on, just more refined and higher resolution. for us in the 80s going into the 90s, we went from literal limited pixels and pallets and grinding square waves (chip tunes) to some really fancy visuals and SFX/BGM with the SNES. we all love the music in mario 3 on the NES, but for us to be presented for the first time ever with the castle music in Mario World (the bass lines) and the boomy sfx, was nothing short of breathtaking. we were wow'd by pilot wings, sim city, ghouls n ghosts, castlevania etc... that kind of experience will never be experienced by anyone again. when i went from KH2 on PS2 to KH3 on xbox x, the wow factor wasn't as dramatic, still impressed, but nothing close to how i felt going from NES to SNES.

I don't know if I've commented this in the past but I absolutely love the way you do your ad placements. I have premium so I don't get the ads the same way but the overall feel of the way you place the cards and actual topic-relevant advertisements in there too are top notch. What makes it so good is you use the breaks as natural topic jumps and it all just works. I hate nothing more than having actual content interrupted by an ad but since you build around them and place them logically it's really nice. Your channel is criminally underrated and as such one I recommend to everyone I know that likes stuff like this and its the attention to detail like that that is why I do. You're fantastic. Seriously. Great video like always.
@GTV-Japan 3 жыл бұрын
Thank you! If there is ever an ad mid-video, it means google put it there and I didn’t know it. I used to be a TV director actually and I guess it's just a natural urge. I think to actually stop the video and take a break helps divide up long videos into topics, I always write videos in outline first, so each break starts a new roman numeral. I also think for the viewer it's good to switch it up because people's attentions naturally go up and down. After each fake ad break I lay 3 seconds of black and if you see a youtube ad, it looks very smooth. Thanks for watching! It means a lot 🦖

SMB3 is characterized by freewheeling creativity. World rests on its laurels more. It's just comfortable. It's comfortable with itself and it's comfortable to play. Even all the music being variations on a single theme contributes to this comfortable, stable feeling. SMB3 will blow you away, but World just feels like home. I prefer the latter.

I agree with this statement! But looking back now, even by Mario World, the concept of how Mario or any game series should exist was not yet "set" There just had not been enough time to allow for enough games to build up a standard of rules that each game will follow. If you look at the NEW Mario series, they are all essentially the same, but nowadays we are fine with that. Thanks for watching! 🦖

a local video store imported the Sumer Famicon with SMW, F-Zero and Final Fight and would rent the whole package at $25 for three days. Me and three of my friends would have a phone chain system so we were the only ones who rented it
@GTV-Japan 3 жыл бұрын
Ha ha ha that's great! I always wondered how much money stores made from game rentals. I guess at 25 for 3 days, you only have to rent it 8/9 times to make a profit, but that would take a month. If each game is $2 a night you'd need to rent it 20-25 times to break even, so I wonder how it all worked. I guess they made money because rentals were around for a while. After you could get used games for $5-10 I stopped renting. Thanks for watching as always! 🦖

Those papercraft-looking 3D renders of SMW maps are amazing! Wish there was some kind of source or credit in the video or description. We had both World and All-Stars at home during my early childhood, and, with pretty much equal nostalgia for both SMW and the SNES-updated SMB3, World doesn't have that much going for it: the bosses are more interesting, there are some neat rotating platforms and such, and the map screen with secret exits and alternate routes is absolutely fantastic - but the basic platforming gameplay and level design of 3 always seemed more focused to me. The cape being intentionally broken in favor of the player is a bold choice, but I liked the super leaf and having to work for the ability to fly more.

Great video. For me personally, as a 2000's kid, I don't have much nostalgia bias toward either SMB3 or SMW. My favorite of the two is SMB3.

All just my preferences, of course.

My personal history with these two games goes as follows: I was born in 1987 and my parents felt I was too young to have video games. So, I didn't get to enter the gamer world at all until as late as 1993! Super Mario World was not just my first Mario game, it was my first video game. I did not get an NES of my own until 1998, when a family friend gave me their kids now abandoned NES and games for Christmas (I was the kind of kid who was more interested in older media rather than new stuff, I am still like that to a degree really). Incidentally, along side SMB3 and others, it came with Final Fantasy and that game got me into JRPGs big time. I was thrilled to play the original SMB trilogy. Super Mario Bros. 3 very quickly found its place right next to Super Mario World in my heart. To this day, I consider them equals as the collective pinnacle of the Mario franchise.

Great video as always! I was 13 years old when the SNES came out stateside a year later and I was blown away. We first rented the system and game before we bought it with money from our tax return.

Excellent Retrospective! I really enjoyed this a lot! You know, SMW vs SMB3 will probably never have a full consensus. Personally, I lean towards SMB3 despite actually playing SMW more. I was born in '93 so I was late to the start of the gaming scene but I had an SNES around '97 or '98, and actually started with All-Stars rather than World. Both are truly fantastic, but honestly I personally give the win to 3, even if we consider the NES release. The thing that seals the deal for me is the cape vs leaf. I feel like in their respective games, the cape trivializes more stages than the leaf does and to me that made me lose a little love for the game as I got older. Seeing the bigger SMW worlds was really cool initially, but as time went on, I started having the opinion that less is more. The smaller, more concise stages of SMB3 not only make it harder to abuse the leaf (in part due to smart ground placement making it somewhat tricky to get P-speed everywhere) but also encourages more focus on tighter platforming in my personal experience. I also just enjoy the variety of power-ups more in 3 compared to the more traditional power-ups in World (though Yoshi definitely compensates for this, his koopa abilities are usually time limited and satisfy a different itch than traditional power-ups). Even if I feel 3 is the better game though, I agree with the sentiments that World is the comfier game, and like you mentioned it's much easier to pick up and put down. Keep up the great work!

Thanks I’m glad you liked the video! Even though 3 and 4 and not “the same” in a way they kind of are from a casual point of view and for me it is the graphics which includes the interaction with backgrounds and more enemies on screen plus the battery make it better. 🦖

After what felt like an eternity waiting for SMB3 to come out I wasn't all that interested in SMW at release. Yeah a neighbor got a SNES at launch and we spent many great afternoons playing through SMW but by that point my gaming tastes had drifted more towards RPGs. These days I appreciate the title a hell of a lot more.

Agreed. And the Mario 3 vs.4 part, the pro mario 3 part was written from the heart. I was in high school during 16 bit and not only did I have other interests, but there were more games and better games to play. And after Mario 3, some of the magic was just gone. Thanks for watching! 🦖

@@GTV-Japan never thought about it like that, but that's probably exactly why I never got into Mario Sunshine or Mario Kart Double Dash like I did the N64 titles. In the sixth gen, I got into different kinds of games so the N64 (and previous) Mario games remained the "magic" titles for me. Excellent video btw.

Funny about that comparison between World and 3, I'd argue that Mario 3 is a much more graphically impressive game. It really shows how well the developers knew the hardware and how to squeeze it's visual limits to the max. Everything feels so carefully laid out with it's colours and palette usage. World on the other hand really shows how the developers didn't really know what to do with the almost endless amount of colours the new system allowed for, making some really questionable decisions like Yoshi's orange arms. While I think the graphic design of the world and it's inhabitants in SMW is super solid, it just doesn't translate to the pixel art in the game itself, making it the uglier game.
@GTV-Japan 3 жыл бұрын
That's a good argument. I think the jump to 16-bit and the graphical arms race made 8-bit feel outdated fast. though you're right, and I did say it, the best SNES games came later and the first games for anything rarely beat what comes later when people can max the machine out. Thanks for watching! 🦖

Super Mario world has a special place in my nostalgic heart! 🎮 In the mid 90’s, I remember coming home from elementary school excited to fire up the SNES and play either Super Mario world, Paper Boy 2 or Winter Olympics 😂 Even in my mid twenties I was paying Super Mario world again but online. Oh the childhood memories 😢 My son is 3 and I was telling him about the SNES and Super Mario World. I wonder if he’ll like it?!

Thank you for all the hard work that went into this, what an amazing compilation. I got my nes for my 7th bday, and played the smb series like crazy. When Smb 3 hit, it seemed so insane, all the hype, the huge adventure with so many possibilities, the new powerups and minigames. We would rent it from blockbuster whenever we could. Super mario world was also a great experience, but I was a bit older when I played it so it doesn't weigh in quite as high on the nostalgia scale. Still an unforgettable experience
