  1. 1st grade for me…School announced that the top 5 kids from each grade level will get a SNES…never wanted one so bad and i worked my hardest….I didnt win but my grades/Behavior greatly improved…My parents saw i worked hard and got me a snes for xmas with 4 games….I hope to give my kids the same memories

  2. Blast Processing was not a marketing Gimmick. It refereed to Sega`s faster Direct Memory Access which was could be used to make the Genesis faster and replicate many effects found on the Super Nintendo like scaling and rotation, Sprite sizes as big as what`s found on the Super Nintendo and it can also used to increase the amount of colors on screen that the Genesis can do. Genesis also have faster ram then then the Super Nintendo which assist Sega Genesis Blast Processing.

  3. If you're younger btw, and maybe you got the retro whatever edition, do yourself a favor and buy a True retro SNES that's nice and clean. Buy one extra controller, and honestly a handful of random hot /popular games from back then. The original experience is the BEST. I suggest all the standard classics plus Battletoads for example. Happy birthday ? TO ALL GAMING FANS! ? ?

  4. Greatest console of all time, and it will never be beaten by anything now or in the future. No one can compete with Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, Metroid, Zelda, Mortal Kombat, Contra, Final Fantasy, Secret of Mana/Evermore, Super Punch-Out!, F-Zero, Super Mario Kart, Street Fighter, Earthworm Jim, Star Fox, Super Castlevania IV, Yoshi's Island, holy crap I could go on forever about how many great franchises were on the NES/SNES. SNES had EVERYTHING.

  5. got it for Christmas in 1991, my favorite console of all time. super Mario world & Donkey Kong Country are games i still go back to & play frequently . so many great games on the Super Nintendo.
