    I remember seeing most major retailers like Kmart, Walmart, EB games, ect selling snes games and systems well into 1999. The system was popular for longer than most people think.

    Always forget the SNES had 1997 releases! We didn’t pick up any of these as we were fully moved over to N64. Great video
  • @dosadi512
    John I hardly ever play retro games but I absolutely love your videos and watch them all. No sh*t, sometimes I'll put on a marathon to fall asleep to - something about it is so soothing. Thank you!

    Lost Vikings 2 shield dude launching via gas blast cracks me up

    97 was a great year for video games. I wish the SNES could have lasted longer, and they could have released more games for years to come. Maybe they could add expansion packs for graphics but keep it a great retro sprite-based console that's still around. The SNES could handle Street Fighter Alpha 2 and you had games that were up to 48 MB. And by then it was close to a decade old, imagine if it stuck around.

    Arkanoid: Doh It Again did support the SNES mouse as a good alternative to the spinner.
  • Lane oil makes a world of difference. My dad was a left-handed bowler and it would cause the ball to get into his path of bowling I guess. I actually learned how to bowl with my left hand because if I hit where his ball had went when bowling with my right hand it would sling my ball into the gutter. So by learning to bowl with my left hand I was able to get to the same lane as him and keep my ball from becoming a gutterball.
  • I used to read review of Harvest Moon for SNES in 1998 gaming magazine, I always wanted to own Harvest Moon, but I didn't own SNES in 90s.

    I was a senior in high school. I always thought I didn’t play a lot at this point but I remember playing these.

  • Jesus, I was a Freshman in 1997...What the hell happened??? Scary how fast time goes by. We had every kid in the neighborhood gathered playing GoldenEye.
  • @JLAvey
    Better bowling on the SNES--- that's a phrase I wasn't expecting to hear when I woke up this morning.
  • @mattm7798
    Looking back, I think the 16 bit generation holds up better than the 32/64 bit, but at the time, having even really bad 3d games was pretty mind blowing and somehow we didn't notice how bad the 3d was lol. Anyone else remember going in to Target and seeing the Playstation kiosk and just being floored by the graphics?
  • Do a video for 1998 as well. Only 2 games were released for the SNES that year: NBA Live 98 and Frogger.
  • @MotherKojiro
    Harvest Moon was such a strange experience back in the day; I remember looking EVERYWHERE for it after reading about it in Nintendo Power, and when I finally found a copy, it wasn't quite the "Farming RPG" they'd made it out to be, but I don't think anyone knew how to classify it. Nobody else was talking about it at the time, and now, there's a whole genre of games inspired by it. I really enjoyed it, mostly because there was a goal and an end; the later games failed to grab me because they just went on forever.

    ProJared dropped "Now in the 90s". Im glad youre still keeping the theme alive!
