Is that a list of all games that were available on both MD and SNES ? Awesome work! :ok:
I think there may still be some missing, just noticed a few myself a second ago actually :(Quote:

I've had that list for a while. (actually, I notice my list has more titles too, though only a few more)
I need a list with the similarly titled games.
Castlevania, Contra, Art Alive! vs. Mario Paint, etc. etc. etc.
but if games are missing from that list, please add them in.
My project is based off of a similar list.
(though I am limiting my team to NA only)
Ys III:
SNES: Little bit better graphics (although you can't really tell). Better music overall (sound more like the CD sound track of the Duo one). Has a very reasonable experience to level system/table.
Genesis: Little bit worse graphics. Pretty good music, but not as good as SNES over all for reasons explained above (only a few tunes I liked better on the Genesis). Has a stupid (read: difficult) experience to level system/table. One of the reasons why I haven't played all the way through it.
Ys III goes to the SNES version. Not sure how the res plays out on this one. I've recently played and beaten the SNES on the real system + SDTV and it didn't look warped or such. The PCE version runs in mid res, so I assume the Genesis one does as well? Doesn't seem to make a difference though.
Taken into account, but at the moment you're the first person out of four to say the SNES version is better (1 from a hardcore gamer article on the game, and 2 from 2 completely separate forums out of the hoard I was reading through earlier)Quote:

I do know that you're one of the resident experts on all things TG-16 around here though so I'll look into it myself tommorow, I do actually own the MD version but have never personally checked out the SNES version.
Wait other than some small loading times it's pixel perfect arcade. And I don't get you logic about 16-Bit aeshetics? There isn't much charmed in a hacked up arcade port. These 16-Bit versions were good during the time that they were released but were surpassed. This isn't like games that were built from the ground up on the Genesis like Eternal Champions.Quote:

This applies to 95% of the games that use this.Quote:

It wouldn't surprise me if it really came down to which system you played it on first (and probably which system you prefer). The TGCD was the first version I played (got it when it was new and I don't *remember* the others being out at the same time). It's a relatively short game and I had beaten it many times over in the first year (and listed to the sound track soo many years after). The SNES experience/level system is pretty similar to the PCE one. The NES one is, IIRC, also similar to those two (it's been a while since I've play the NES translation). The MD US cart seems to be the only one that's ramp up in exp grinding noticeably. Maybe this was only done on the US version? Or tamed down on the EU version? Dunno. Haven't checked out the EU or JP version for the MD yet.Quote:

As far as which game get which names of the story correct, I can't really say. I'm a huge Ys III, but I guess I'm not that hardcode ;) Besides, the PC remake adds so much more to the story - that it makes the older ports feel like bare minimum story. The PC remake just plain rocks.
The TG16 version is fast, but choppy. The neither the snes or the genesis version is choppy. Both are smooth. And the only mode 7 in the SNES one that I can remember is in the opening cinema. A zooming in effect as they are walking. Totally valid use of mode 7 in a cinema. Not necessary, but valid. Otherwise, there's no other mode 7 in the game that I remember. Not the stairway part nor the last boss or any such place like that. Hardcore gaming 101 site? They make for some good reads, but some of there articles are just down right biased bullshit -with some of others a little less so. You take what you can from the articles, and leave the rest.Quote:

Has Joe chimed in yet? If owns the Genesis version, than I'm sure he's beaten it. And I know he has the TGCD version. So he might be able to also weigh in on the exp/level ratio difference.
Not that anybody cares, but Paperboy 2 is definitely better on Genesis. The SNES version has inexplicably terrible sound.
Liberty or Death is better on SNES though. The Genesis version has inexplicably terrible sound.
Pac-Man 2 is better on Genesis because in the SNES version you can unlock Ms. Pac-Man, which everyone has played to death, whereas the Genesis version features "Pac-Jr.", a completely original faux sequel that remains exclusive to that release.
Clay Fighter is meant to be better on SNES, but it's a shit game regardless of platform.
Whoa, I thought you were TZ...but you're jFactor.
lol
American Gladiators is missing all SFX in the SNES version.
Also has horrible FPS
But amazing music.
IMHO the Genesis version is better because every event plays better, but the SNES also has one exclusive event (that sucks)
So which is better?
