I never really thought about cartridges and their physical content. I guess I assumed that there was some kind of data sitting around, waiting to be read the console. Basically like a CD-ROM.
Turns out: They also have their own processors. Apparently, some of the late SNES games came with processing power that was about 5x more than the actual #SNES had on its own. Imagine an SD- or SIM Card outperforming your phone. ๐

Judge Dredd for the #SNES โ the rare licensed game thatโs better than the property itโs based on. #snesfriday
For SNES Friday I wanted to share my love for the Super Game Boy cartridge. That within a few years of its release Nintendo would miniaturize the Game Boy components to integrate with a Super Nintendo is a neat idea! Now, of course, Nintendo does this with software emulation. ๐
I'm still waiting on my SNES HDMI cable, so I'm hoping to try it out later tonight on my Hyperkin SupaRetroN HD.

I lately came to appreciate the simpler games of my youth again, so for today's #SNESFriday, I'm sharing #MegaManX. Finished it yesterday and it's still a solid game. However, I don't know if I ever actually finished it before, as the last fight is pretty ridiculous and I don't remember finishing it. ๐
Four difficult phases and health reserves aren't filled up again, so you'd have go grinding again in between tries. Phew. #VideoGames #ShareYourGames #SNES

For this #SNESFriday I booted up the first #Tetris game I've ever played: Tetris 2! I would learn later that this version of Tetris is a little different from the original variety, mainly because this plays a bit more like Dr. Mario with tetrominoes - Tetris standard and otherwise. Solo or 2-player, one can play this game for a good while.

For SNES Friday I bought my first Super Famicom console! I plan on streaming some Game Boy games on it, and just generally think it's a cute addition to my collection.

For this #SNESFriday I want to bring up a game from childhood - Bugs Bunny: Rabbit Rampage. It's a Looney Tunes game in which Bugs Bunny faces off against other characters, such as Elmer Fudd, Wile E. Coyote, and Daffy Duck. I had a rough time getting to the final boss as a kid due to no save feature, no password function, and not knowing that you could increase your starting life counter to 10. It's a fun test of platforming skills for anyone who enjoys Looney Tunes.

Besides some more #RushHour, I also finished my occasional #SuperMarioWorld playthrough today. It performs surprisingly well, even on s big screen.
I just took the most organic route, which I think was pretty fast, overall. So I missed quite a few levels, I think. Well, this way I can coincidentally post this on #SNESFriday. ๐

Coming in just under the wire, but for #SNESFriday I wanted to shout out Legend of the Mystical Ninja! My brother and I used to rent this one all the time thanks to the great two-player, even though we had no idea what we were doing. Donโt think weโd ever get past the first boss in a weekend.
I was going to play Legend of the Mystical Ninja for #SNESFriday but I canโt see it on Switch Online. Was it ever on there or am I imagining things?
For SNES Friday I have a game that I have mixed feelings about:
Street Fighter II Turbo for the SNES was the game that all my friends talked about. As someone who has bad reaction timing and coordination issues friends would invite me to play... For about two games and then I would go back to watching.
It wasn't until the last couple years that I tried the original Street Fighter II and really enjoyed it!

It's #SNESFriday! I can't believe I've been here for a week. Thanks so much for the warm welcome everyone, you all are amazing!
Just after finding the FF3/6 map last week, I found the whole darn instruction booklet *Kefka Laugh*
Another #SNESFriday, another anecdote.
Back in elementary school, I was guest on a birthday party. Later in the day, the remaining kids gathered in birthday boy's room and we started playing #GoofTroop in 2-player mode.
The rules were simple: Who died had to pass on the controller. With one short intermission, I ended up playing the whole time. ๐ Another kid, who didn't like me then, ended up finishing up the game with me.
Suddenly, we were buddies the next day. #ShareYourGames #VideoGames

After being mildly obsessed with Street Fighter II and Mortal Kombat as a kid, when I started seeing previews for ClayFighter in Electronic Gaming Monthly and GamePro, I convinced myself that this would be the next big fighting game to rule over my life.
I finally got my hands on it and while it never lived up to the hype I had let build up, it was decent and good for a laugh. I think I mained Bad Mr. Frosty, which just sounds like itโs code for something wrong.
