If you already feel old, how does it feel to know that the Super Nintendo came out 32 years ago?
For many of us, the 90s were defined by the 16-bit generation of video games. The successor to the enormously successful Nintendo Entertainment System was of course the good old SNES. A system that would push the envelopes the look, sound and overall experience of what a home video game could be, and go on to become a legend in it’s own right.
For this episode, we cover some of the history, the technical specs (what was MODE 7 anyway?) and, of course, some of our favorite games! Expect some obvious classics as well as some deep cuts because your Octo-Hosts are huge fans of the good old SNES!
Later on, we’ll get to this week’s Octo-Ponder as well as a little COMPOSE YO’SELF from 8bit (or should we say 16bit) Alchemy!
