better call this video: 10 SNES accessories...

"Ten peripherals for your SNES you probably already know about"

"10 things I'm not quite old enough to remember first hand."

“9 things literally everyone who has owned a SNES already knows and 1 thing no one cares about.” There, I fixed your title for you. You owe me 13 minutes of my life back.

Under aged kids shouldn't make videos about retro consoles. This video is just pointless every one from super nintendo era know these "Things You Never Knew".

Dude why do you make these list like you just discovered the system? Seriously, "did you know it had a mouse?" It's like you just slapped the list together from stuff you did a quick Wikipedia search from.

10 things your SNES can do: 1. „it can be yellow“ 😂

If I ever meet Paul Rudd I'm going to go: "Oh my God, are you Paul Rudd from those Super Nintendo commercials?"

Yo I didnt know the snes had a Y button! Thanks thumbnail!

10 things people have known about the SNES for over 25 years.

This is awful, derivative content.

“10 things that every SNES owner knows about the SNES”

"Ten things I stole from other KZfaqrs who are much better than me."

Worth watching TheGamer, just to laugh at their pure ignorance of gaming. XD

Dude they don't show the like to dislike ratio. That is one of the most sketchy things I've seen.

Fun fact: The Super Scope is just called the Super Scope. "Super Scope 6" is the name of the 6--minigames-in-one-cartridge that was made to showcase the peripheral.

Did you also know that 2+2 is 4 and Zelda is the girl, not the guy you play as?

Sorry, but this video feels like you were reading a Wikipedia entry on SNES peripherals, then stole a bunch of clips from other channels.

Someone born fifteen years after the SNES was released trying to teach me about the SNES. just stop, please.

Please make a video about how to block your channel from appearing in my feed

WOW YOU CAN PLAY VIDEO GAMES ON THE SNES!!

You're celebrating the Super Nintendo's birthday a month early and doing so with an uniformative video. Kudos

the person talking sounds like they arent even old enough to have been alive in the 90s

"10 things you never knew your old Super Nintendo could do" *Points to the Y button.

Paul Rudd lmao

Is this youtube creator mocking us or what? He can't stop using that disgusting most useless yellow pointer.

Me: looks at thumbnail Me: I NEVER KNEW I COULD PRESS BUTTONS ON AN SNES CONTROLLER

there needs to be more ads in this video... being stopped every minute and a half for an ad isn't enough. I want an ad after every word spoken in the video... that's my dream!

Video was obviously made by somebody born AFTER the SNES days. Having grown up in the 80s/90s, none of these 10 things were unknown to me (or my entire generation) whatsoever.

Most of this shit is common knowledge

"10 things i didnt know about the snes" Thimbnail: -pointing at Y button- Me: wow! Had no idea the snes had a Y button!

"10 things your snes can do" "not hold a drink"

Okay, just a few things wrong with this video. First, just because you have a SNES that was early enough to have the yellowing problem, doesn't make it more valuable. If anything, the reliability of the earlier units would be compromised by the brittleness of the plastic, and there were likely production changes in later revisions that were designed to improve the reliability further. Second, yes the mouse could be used in those games, and the experience with the mouse isn't really that good, but the mouse itself is actually quite comparable to mice on PCs at the time, as Optical Mice weren't available yet or were too expensive for the average consumer, and Laser Mice weren't even close to being ready. Third, there were multiple models of multitaps made by various companies, and even though they allowed you to plug in up to 5 controllers (8 if two multitaps were used), most of the games they worked with limited you to 4 players max, with Secret of Mana only allowing 3 players total. Fourth, on the sports accessories, you speak as if the accessories themselves were made by Nintendo, which they weren't. They were made by a company called Sports Sciences and licensed for use with the SNES by Nintendo. Further, the games they were compatible with were also, for the most part, not made by Nintendo either, yet you also speak as if they were. Fifth, the Satellaview was a one-way broadcast service, which means you didn't get any communications features like modern online gaming, nor On-Demand access to the content. It just downloaded whatever the service was sending at the specific time. If the signal got noisy and corrupted the download for the day, you wouldn't have access to anything new until the next time they sent it out, and you might miss out on something if they only sent it that specific day. Sixth, on the Super Advantage, there were other similar controllers produced by various companies similar to the one shown. Also, the company's name is pronounced Ass-kee-ware, which is the official pronunciation of ASCII, or the American Standard Code for Information Interchange, followed by Ware. Finally, regarding the design of the SNES, this seems anecdotal to me. Does anyone have a legitimate quote from someone on the design team regarding this coaster thing? Yes, it seems like a logical design choice given what could happen with the NES's shape, but the main reason they made the NES that shape originally was so it would be compared more to a VCR than the traditional top-loading cartridge design common to nearly every console before and after it. All in all, try to put a little more quality into the videos by improving the research behind them and you'll have a much better channel overall. Most people would prefer a few high-quality videos a week instead of 2-3 poor quality videos per day, like you seem to be focused on.

I did not knew that you can press the Y button! Sweet!

Hey guys, great job on the video, the top #1 was fascinating and makes complete sense. I knew a couple things on the list, but keep rolling the retro game and consoles too ten! I consider myself a buff, and find your videos a fun challenge.

Um, that last one is very wrong. The NES was flat because the public was wary of gadgets exclusively used for video games after the video game crash of the 80s, so they called it an "entertainment system," copied the design of the VCR and bundled it with things like keyboards, piano peripherals, Mario Paint, etc. Loading sideways from the front wasn't even optimal for the 72-pin connectors and is the primary reason why NES consoles break, but don't throw it away because you can get replacement 72-pin connectors mega cheap from China and you only need a Philips screwdriver to repair it

Without this video I never would have known that I could plug controllers into my Super NES I was wondering why I could not play any of my games thank you very much

well I know I want those 13 Minutes of my life back all of this is common knowledge to any gamer alive at the time

10 things I've known for 10 years. thanks for the refresh on these known things

10 things every person with a snes knows

Well this was uninformative

Jesus, did you even know there was a Super Nintendo?

"It could turn yellow, especially if you store it in the toilet" *holds up snes covered in feces.

My God. This is painfully stupid.

"How about this: did you know that the Super Nintendo could accommodate more than 2 players? We didn’t either. " Yes, actually, I did. I had one, too. Honestly, this video is an embarassment.

A big LOL to shitty, discolored Super Nintendos being "all the rage" online.

Lmao bro I hope this was suppose to be a comedy! " get ready to be blown away" trust me i was 😂😂😂

"Home alone type ingenuity was all the rage" Yes - this kid isn't old enough to truly understand :)

The SNES was top loading for the same reason all the other consoles that came before and after were top loading: it's the best way to insert a cart. The NES was front loading in order to appear more like a VCR, so as to not be regarded as a video computer, which became unpopular after the crash of 83. The ZIF hardware used to facilitate front loading was not effective, and would fail frequently, which most players thought to solve by blowing in the cart

Fun Fact: Nintendo peripherals like the mouse and the golf club were made kid size because....THEY WERE MADE TO BE USED BY KIDS.

Boy was I going to rip this video before I read everypne already doing it for me. Thank you. Still some sense left in the world

6:30 “pick up the bat and take a stroll down memory lane” I thought the title of the video told me I wasn’t supposed to know about this

"If you haven't clicked the like button" ...it's probably because it's only a few seconds in, and you haven't even started the list!

This is all stuff almost any gamer form the 90's knows.

This dude really put a screenshot of “we’re back: a dinosaur story” when he said the words “we’re back” in the opening lmao

The last point reminded me of an old joke I loved back in the day. What do you get when you scratch your 64 game? A scratched 64 game. What do you have when you scratch a playstation game? A fifty dollar coaster.

You say 10 things you didn't know SNES's could do, but the thumbnail shows the Y button. I'm pretty sure every guy and their pet's pets know what a Y button is.

More like Things TheGamer Never Knew The Old Super Nintendo Could Do

Glad i found this video! Didn't know what the Super Gameboy was used for!

I love me some Super Scope. My buddy and I played the hell out of Battle Clash, that game where you shot up the different mechs in one on one battles. Such an amazing game for the day haha.

I dont know why you are telling us such obvious things about the SNES. I mean the Zapper, the golf stick and the gameboy adapter arent really things that were kept from the public.

I was born after the SNES and never owned one, but I literally knew of every single one of those things. Except the last, which happens to be something it can't do, not something it "can"

Half of the things I seriously did not know about so good on ya, matey!

Was that Paul Rudd in the commercial @2:35? 😂 He looks so excited.

Is that Paul Rudd at 2:36 ?

Wow... completely useless waste of time. The video should be called “10 things you already knew about your SNES”.

Swear this took me back to when I first seen that NES Advantage and that game Genie was everything lol. Awesome video lol

Mario Paint gave me my first exposer to animating, and I've been hooked ever since.

Did you knew the SNES was a device that you could play games on your TV ! I lost 10 mn of my life listening to you giving fact that EVERYBODY knew (I spare 2 mn for the golf club and the baseball bat that I indeed didn't knew, cause they never crossed the Atlantic). I feel spoiled

You are incorrect, I knew about nearly all of these things

Of course the golf club was made for a 10-year-old. Who do you think the Super NES was marketed to? "adults" in the early 90's didn't play video games, lol... That is something kids these days just don't understand.

ABS Plastic yellows because the butadiene polymer will readily photocatalyse and the chemical products cause the discoloration. The use of or proportion of TBBP-A is completely irrelevant to the yellowing- It is the proportion of UV Stabilisers and UV Absorbers, which have been intentionally added to ABS plastics effectively since their inception that causes different plastics to exhibit the problem at different rates. The "flame retardants cause yellowing" concept was an untested hypothesis that attempted to explain how retrobrite worked, and seems to now be being spread as a truth, but the hypothesis didn't make any sense, particularly since it meant that elemental bromine was leeching from the compounds into these plastics- If that was true we'd be worried about more than just the appearance, given Bromine is heavily toxic, corrosive, and a known carcinogen.

The last one about the design change being because the NES was used as a coaster is horseshit lol. It was changed because the side load design was a poor one. After time playing different games the pins would bend and it would cause the dreaded blinking light/screen. And we all thought you had to blow into the cartridge and system 😂.

I had (I think I still have) that cartbridge where you could put a gameboy cardbridge in it. Haha this video brings so much memories. Mario paint was such a great game (only for the music software in it tho). Loved this console. My childhood

This was awesome! I had Game Genie for my old NES, but I didn't know they had one for the SNES. That was the only custom device I had (and really didn't want one - the controller is as good as it gets IMO, though I would love to mess with a BatterUp).

Bad video over all, especially that last fact. How is "not being a coaster" something that you never knew your old super Nintendo "COULD" do?

That footage of the Super Game Boy with Metroid II in it was lifted from an AVGN episode.

Great video! I have to check my SNES systems now. I should have at least one yellow one.

If your super Nintendo turns yellow, you made it really mad, and it turned super saiyan. lol

Nobody else has yet noticed Paul Rudd in the SNES commercial at 2:33?

"It's a chameleon" Actually, the Chameleon is an SNES mini inside a Jaguar case. ;)

"an awesome stroll down memory lane" but I thought you said I didn't know how to do it?

I remember the capcom fight pad, it was Japanese I believe yet it worked on the American version of the snes. When I was in my youth I purchased mine at my local GameStop at the time I thought it was a unique looking controller very comfortable to use.

Yeah, uh... The reason SNES games load directly into the top is because A) The Japanese Super Famicom systems were modeled on the Famicom, which was a top-loading system. B) The front-loading gimmick of the NES was only put there to distance the system from other video systems by making it feel more like a VCR or computer disk drive (see the book "Game Over") so as to not be associated with Atari. By the time the SNES came out, there was no need for that level of subterfuge. C) By the time the SNES was released, the connector contact defect problem with the NES (where the internal contacts are worn out by pressing the cartridge down over the lifetime of the system) was already known and becoming a problem for consumers. While I am certain that a benefit of the SNES design was to alleviate people using the system as a storage space, it very clearly wasn't the reason for the design (even the Japanese Super Famicom is too rounded to have anything placed on its top). If you're going to make ridiculous assertions, please quote your sources. Plus, the "not a coaster" thing isn't really something the SNES CAN do, but something it CANNOT.

"Did you learn anything new?" No.

These are all things basicly everyone knows a SNES could do.

You gotta love that for these videos, they just put a pointer to a random button.

this video should be called accessories you didn't know SNES had

Top ten things everyone with a super Nintendo knew

Nice, video, But was the ARROW on the button in the thumbnail needed? U could have put a picture of the Super advantage beside the SNES there.

I didn't know anything you just now said!! Its all new to me!! Wow! Mine is Yellow :) And Killer Instinct Is My Favourite

*10 Peripherals that SNES Had. There I fixed it for you.

Check out Paul Rudd at 2:35!

Metroid II on Gameboy...when you showed the cartridge, I could physically feel it in my hand. That's how much a part of my life that game was.

Whooaaa super game boy. Totally never seen, heard, or used that... ever... neither did any of my friends... like everything else on this list. Grrreat video

The change in design because of drinks spillage isn't entirely true. The original NES is a top loader but only in the Japanese domestic market (FAMICOM) for the European & North American market it was changed to a front loader, the reason this was done is because of the great gaming crash of the early 80's, sales outside of Japan of game consoles plummeted so Nintendo decided to make the FAMICOM (NES) not look like a games console outside of the domestic market, the design they went for was a front loading VCR, they hoped it would tempt buyers as it looked like something they already owned. They were correct, when the Super FAMICOM (SNES) launched the console market was more than stable so they kept the top loader layout regardless of the sales market. Hope this helps.

Making porn with Mario paint was a highlight of my early teenage years.

Played NHL 94 and Madden all the time with 5 players, always very fun. I want to play Ken Griffey with a bat though!!! Thanks for that

Definitely want to play that The Tick game I saw in the last few seconds of this video!

Fuck I hate it when people call arcade sticks “fight sticks.”
